I have no basis of comparison. But for what it's worth, The Wahl 84900 continues to work very well for my wife (who has cut my hair for 50+ years) and myself. It replaced a very, very old Wahl. I have "normal length", old fashioned parted hair that gets cut about every 3 weeks. We do not use the clip-on attachments.

I cant remember don't use this anymore. I would recommend the wahl 99180 trimmer. It's way better

Wahl specifications for the Wahl Blade Set 1045 states that it is only compatible with the 9000 model series.

I was told the other day while purchasing a Porter Cable saw at Lowes that I should avoid the Dewalt due to paying extra for the name, not sure if this to be true or not. I purchased a Steel City planer and so far so good, the head is what sold me, I used a knife machine but prefer the helical head.

My experience is only with the Wahl. I like it very much. It's light weight and doesn't heat up too quickly. My only negative is with the housing which is very smooth almost slick, and I've dropped it a few times. Once, I needed to replace the head, because it broke when it hit the floor. I'm more careful now, :-) It's a handy device, but it's not meant for heavy-duty work. I only use it on my small poodles...their faces, tail, feet and under the abdomen. It's a good addition to my other grooming tools but not a replacement for a stronger trimmer (one with switchable blades).

Actually I see you have a detailed answer. If you have any need of further info let me know. I like them both. Quiet and well made. There not my Powermatic floor sander but a great product for the niche they fill in my shop.

Call Wahl Customer Service, 1-800-334-4627..Amazon does NOT have the correct blade for the Pro Series 9590-210. (And the wrong blade everyone is complainig about costs over 28.00!) The correct blade simply snaps onto the clipper, no unscrewing needed. I just ordered 10 new blades (I have 3 dogs) directly from Wahl; they are only 7.00 and change each if you order 3 or more. Happy clipping!

I use a Wahl Sterling. The Sterling has consistently work great on my customers.

I would say the Bosch laser is more accurate as it references off of the plumb line if you would. Definitely within .060" accuracy.

By "tight-curly" do you mean matts? If so, mine comes with a 10 blade which is perfect for getting out matts. Otherwise, I have not used the Wahl Show Pro, but the Oster A6 is a higher quality than that specific Wahl model so it should work better.

The difference is the 830039 comes with a Leather/Nylon Combination Sheath and the 830040 comes with a Nylon Sheath, the Wave is the same. I prefer the 830040 because it has a hole in the bottom of the sheath allowing the Wave to be carried in the pliers ready to use position (CAUTION, do not set down with it in this position).

Ask Wahl..I think they have a different system over there for their electricity but I don't know for sure..I do know for sure.That I love my Wahl..So does my wife, who is a stickler on haircuts..I have gotten my money back several times and did as good as the barber..and I didn't have to drive anywhere, listen to any stories, or pay $16 every 3 weeks..Keep it clean, keep it oiled and keep it in use..Practice makes it perfect..

It's not about the volts. It's more about the quality of the product. Andies speed master and the Oster salon pros are two I would highly recommend. For an even smooth cut every time with less work. Gives you a more professional look.

I know nothing about the HC1850, but I do quilt on my Designio DZ3000. The features that I would look for are needle down position, speed control, drop feed dog and lots of pressor feet provided. These will help a lot with quilting. But if the HZ has a stitch regulator, you might want to go with it because they are very expensive to add, if you even can, and they make free motion quilting much easier. I've had my machine for about a year, and have made many quilts without any problems with the machine at all. Hope this helps.

I personally prefer BOSCH as they are mated for the tool. But, there are other third-party accessories, including blades that will work satisfactorily, if you choose them carefully for compatibility.

This is more for trimming and grooming facial hair. Though they are durable, you'd be better off going to wahl's site, looking under pro tools, and investing in a good set of their hair clippers. They are not much more than this model , will suit your purpose better, and all have replaceable blades available for very little. Some are even rechargeable lithium, if you really want to ditch the cord during use. Find the ones you like, and see if amazon has them. Wahl will provide a list of authorized sellers, as the pro line is not sold at many stores.

There is almost no black and white answers to which is better. This helical Steel City planer is very smooth, and very quiet for a planer. There is a bit of snipe, although I have not yet adjusted the infeed, outfeed tables. The straight blade planer such as Dewalt are powerful, but a little more expensive for the small shop. I am very very pleased with the Steel City planer. It is smooth, powerful, safe and quiet.
