I first used it and it started making loud noises. I was disappointed till I found a video on there site that you need to adjust the screw on the side. Work great after that.

Update; andis hot in touch with me and explained how to adjust for voltage. But fast forward from April to August 2025, the clippers all of a sudden were working fine and now they just stopped cutting and I can’t adjust them.. Don’t know what happened to andis but their products are cheaply made and are not made to last. DO NOT BUT ANY OF THEIR PRODUCTS. Omg! These are so loud that the noise is deafening! Like my ears and head hurt literally. The sound is painful and vibrating. These are my third pair of Andis. I kind of had a feeling that paying $89 for this product after I paid $150 for my last two pairs of Andis clippers was a bad idea. And it was. After about 30 seconds they started humming so loud that multiple uses will lead to me having to see an ear specialist and possibly a neurologist. Terrible. But I can vouch that their master clippers are perfect. I guess you get what you pay for but these should be taken off the market

Solid clippers, corded classics

I keep seeing everyone leave reviews about the noise. It's a simple screw adjustment. They were noisy when I first opened them then I turned the screw and they are as quiet as a mouse! They cut great too! I highly recommend these clippers!

They are quiet when you first get them and once it’s too late to return they flip the switch. So loud I can’t even use them. I should have listened to other reviews.

You can never go wrong with these at all.. works wonders.

I have had the same Andis Masters since for 25 years, Never let me down. I bought a new set to retire my old pair but these new ones are loud!!!!!!! I would have to wear ear protection if I wanted to continue to use these. I had to return them unfortunately.
