BEETRO 500W Electric Professional Sheep Shears, Animal Grooming Clippers for Sheep Alpacas Goats and More, 6 Speeds Heavy Duty Farm Livestock Haircut

I bought these last year after a well known alpaca shearing group left 2 of my alpacas's undersheared - they indicated their coats were oily "alpacas don't have lanolin" after they left as they were shearing in the dark I ordered these as the shearing job was a hack piece - I was able to finish trimming them then put them up in case I ever needed them. Well this year the cost of shearing has gone up again and I cannot afford it so decided to try to shear on my own after spending 7 years having someone professionally shear them. I do not sell or process the fleece so it just needs to be off the animal. I tied my largest alpaca Puck and did a standing shear on him - after 10 mins he's about 3/4 done - I'd rather go slow and spray the blades frequently than go fast and cause harm. I'm ordering a second set of blades so I can ensure all my 5 alpacas are clipped well. I don't know why this is listed as a frequently returned item it worked great for me and I am very particular about products I use on my animals. A++++++

Great for the price. Only one of my goats needs shearing, and I had been really struggling with hand shears. I have never used any other electric shears, so I can't really compare the noise level or heat to anything else, but they worked very well. I used the oil that came with them and some cooling spray, but they didn't get excessively hot. I'm assuming these won't last as long as an expensive set, but I think they are a great option for someone who only needs to shear a few animals once or twice a year. Even if I had to buy a new one every year, it is totally worth the convenience. As long as you know general animal grooming safety, they are much safer while giving a closer cut than hand shears.My biggest caution is to be careful not to let the animal kick into the comb (or kick your hand into the comb), but that goes for any electric shears. I also see a lot of people getting these for dogs, and I would NOT recommend using them on a dog. They are much louder than dog grooming clippers, and if your dog is matted, you can use a 10 or 30 blade to get under mats much more safely, with a better result. It is really not necessary to get something this powerful for dog hair.

We purchased this product to shear our show sheep, and overall, they work very well. The blades are extremely sharp, so you do need to be careful while clipping to avoid accidents. They cut smoothly and efficiently, which makes the job easier. However, one thing to note is that the blades heat up fairly quickly, so it’s important to keep an eye on the temperature and give them breaks to cool down as needed. Otherwise, a solid, reliable tool for anyone shearing livestock.

Great clipper the blades looks dangerous but aren’t hold right on skin no cuts works like a lawnmower minutes instead of hours not to noisy or heavy; thanks for all my free time now

Thank goodness I finally found something that will cut my Great Pyrenees extra thick double coat and matted pantaloons from the winter. I tried a couple other professional grade pet clippers and they did nothing. Like they wouldn't even cut a single hair. These dog's coats are crazy thick. It's like, well, wool.These Sheep Shears - oh my. AMAZING. I literally laughed aloud with glee as they cut my dog's hair. It was like literal butter on these mattes. Is the cut perfectly even? Nope (might get better with practice), but I don't care. My dog is groomed and he's super happy to not be wearing a 6 inch winter coat outside in the Summer. I wish I had bought these years ago. (I know it said not for dogs, but literally nothing for dogs worked. If you have a super thick coated dog - this is perfect).

I first off I am very adept when it comes to electronic mechanical devices. This item is not built well, the components fail quickly, motor runs hot, clipper teeth will not stay engaged, and the two teeth components will not stay together for cutting.

No tengo una granja industrial, ni muchas ovejas para usar la maquina pero no cumplio mis expectativas cabe mencionar que donde vivo es templado o frio y aun si el sobrecalentamiento era excesivo que no podia tener la maquina sin guantes, para tratar de no dañar la maquina realizo tiempo de reposo con la maquina, adicional que despues descubri que son maquinas ch1nas porque solo cambian entre marcas, no estoy contento pero me adapto con su uso, aun asi trato de sacarle provecho para mis animales, quiza suba un video despues para que se pueda observar

The media could not be loaded. I ordered BEETRO 500W, Electric Professional Sheep Shears, Animal Grooming Clippers for Sheep Alpacas Goats... after reading through several reviews. I have prior experience as a dog groomer, so felt confident that I could adjust to shearing sheep. The shears worked great. I didn't feel any resistance while it was going through the wool. I oiled the blades well and often as stated in the instructions, and in some earlier reviews, and they never got hot. I used them for the neck and body moving downward at the top of the legs so as not to cut the skin where the legs attach to the body.I used these scissors:Ihttps://www.amazon.com/Thorntons-Art-Supply-Multi-Purpose-Seamstress/dp/B01C1U2MLG/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1XSDK3QDISUJM&keywords=Craft+Arthritis+Soft+Grip+Spring-Assisted+8-Inch+Scissors&qid=1692120313&sprefix=craft+arthritis+soft+grip+spring-assisted+8-inch+scissors%2Caps%2C196&sr=8-2to trim around her head, face, legs, and under belly because I felt it was easier for me and safer for her.They also work great!Her fleece is amazing and she is happy. No nicks and very few second cuts.My stand was a repurposed milk stand, using my wagon sides to help keep her from falling off the sides.The instructions say not to use on dogs. I would agree.I would highly recommend these clippers for an owner of a small flock of sheep.
