Wahl Professional5 Star Series Cord/Cordless Magic Clip - Full Size Hair Clipper with Precision Blades, Lithium Ion Battery, and 100+ Minute Run Time for Professional Barbers & Stylists

I use these mainly for fades and tapers, and they don’t miss. The lightweight design gives perfect control, especially when working blends. That crunching sound lets you know it’s working right — for smooth blends. The snaggletooth blade is built for blending, and it shows. Battery life is solid, and if you fade regularly, this clipper’s a must.

UPDATE 4/22/2023: Been about 3 1/2 years and this thing is still going strong. Staying nice and sharp. I've noticed getting my hair cut down the street that some of the barbers use these as well. If this breaks I'm definitely buying the exact same one again if it's still around.____________________________My main goal for my hair is just in beard/stubble trimming. I am not a professional and I don't cut my own hair. The goal for my trimmers is that they provide reasonably close trimming on the sensitive skin of my face, since I can't use a regular razor. Also, I want something that is quality, and I would rather spend more for something that lasts. My last requirement is that the trimmer be wireless. With that as the background:The first trimmer I ever bought worked surprisingly well for being so cheap, about $35. It was a ConairMAN HC1100R. Holds a charge well, powerful motor, close-enough shave for the neck area. Only problem is the mechanism for tapering the blade would break after months of going back and forth between neck and face (adjusting for longer length on the face). This caused the blade to become unstable, loud, and cut poorly. I've been through three of these things, and when my third one just broke in October of 2019 despite being purchased in February, I decided I needed to move on.In a hurry I purchased the Wahl 8290 which I have nothing bad to say about because I never used it. My genius self didn't bother to realize it's not cordless.I next jumped on the GOOLEEEN hair clippers, cordless, LED display, IPX7 waterproof, and advertised as "professional." Long story short, the motor sounds and feels weak, the cutting mechanism is half plastic, and the thing was immediately tugging out my hair even in already short and not very dense facial hair.After a bit more research, I decided to try the ConairMAN Super Stubble, also with a waterproof rating. This one has a pre-attached motorized guard that you can adjust digitally. I can't believe I spent $112 on this thing. The motor feels weak and cheap, and the whole unit feels a little cheap. The guard itself is a nice try at innovation but something about it made it take waaaay more passes to evenly cut my facial hair, like I've ever experienced before. And no matter how many passes I did take, it still never quite felt like I was done. Also, that tiny motor that adjusts the guard seems like it will be the first thing that breaks, which is crazy because one of the "features" of the device is that the motor automatically returns the guard to a preset length when you turn the device off, and then returns yet again to whatever length you were using previously once you turn it back on. Meaning there are a ton of unnecessary movements of the motor that are only going to ensure it's the first thing to go. The only positive thing I can say is that when you flip the guard back and just use the blade without the guard, you get a pretty close cut, so close it actually cut my skin a little bit but nothing terrible.After doing even more research, watching more youtube videos, etc., I finally landed on this, the Wahl 8148. At about $30 less than the Super Stubble, I'm very happy. I'd be happy even if it were the same price as the Super Stubble. The motor feels strong (though it seems to be comparably louder than some other nice professional models I saw reviewed). The unit feels sturdy, and the blades make quick and even work of my facial hair just like my first Conair. I also like that, unlike all the other models I tried, the tapering bar for the blade operates on a smooth gradient, not large clicking progressions. Meaning you can be extra meticulous in your blending which seems extra useful when you're working with hair that's overall short to begin with. You can operate cordless or plugged in. Some reviews complain there's more power when the unit is plugged in, but in my opinion that's a feature, not a flaw. This means the unit can utilized the extra draw from the wall that you probably can't get from a lithium ion battery alone, if you need that extra power for whatever reason.I expect this thing to easily provide years of reliable use and I will definitely be back to post an update if not.

good

It’s precise and its motor it’s strong and provides a smooth cut. Being cordless it’s a big plus since I don’t have to worry about the cord being on the way. It’s a great value for its money. I love the weight of it.

Excellent quality and definitely worth the investment. It’s precise, easy to use, and gives professional quality results. It’s a good size to hold in the hand and the weight of it shows a high build quality. I wanted to find something that allowed me to keep a short, and consistent beard length and this achieves that beautifully.

It is cutting hair well. It’s good for fading. It came as new. It starts heating when continuously used for a while. Battery is good. It’s easy to use since it’s cordless. Mirror and scissors need to be ordered separately if needed. Overall, I am very happy with this clipper for now (I am using it for two weeks)
