Conair Pro Moda-Groom Pet Clipper

Poodles can start out looking like this, (keep reading to see how it turns out)





I bought this clipper on sale because I was in desperate need of a clipper because my poodle looked like a gorilla baby.


The Conair Pro Moda-Groom II 2 speed was on sale so I thought I would give it a go because the price was right.

 I am a groomer by trade and own several Oster clippers. I wanted a clipper that the blades were compatible with my Oster. The blade is also compatible with the Andis, and Wahl detachable clippers.

This clipper comes in red or pink with a bag, which I also found to be very nice.  The bag has several zippered sections with pockets to put all the essential grooming needs in, and keep them organized. As a groomer it is essential to have the proper tools handy at all times. Grooming supplies are expensive, so always keep your tools in good repair. Protect your investment I always say.



 I felt like the clipper did a great job, it is not as heavy duty as my Oster clippers, but when grooming small breeds it is plenty powerful. It has two speeds, but often times I only need to use the low speed for it to work well.

These clippers are also light weight and small enough that the strain on your hand is minimal. When grooming multiple dogs in a day the strain can become painful. Try to minimize that strain by exercising your hand between groomings, stress balls are a great way to accomplish this.
 

My only complaint is that the on/off and speed switch is located on the palm section of the handle where it is easy to bump when grooming, resulting in it turning up or off. This is not a deal breaker and I would recommend these clippers, in fact I liked them well enough that I bought two.

The cord was long enough to give me moving around room and I like to move around, especially when it comes to grooming wiggly little poodles.
