Bought a $400 clipper set that started pulling hair after two months

I got the Andis Master Pro set last fall thinking it would be a long term upgrade for my shop. The motor started to lag and it would tug on thick hair, which clients definitely noticed. I had to go back to my old Wahl Seniors after wasting that cash. Has anyone else had a major brand let them down that fast?

That's brutal for a pro set. It feels like a lot of brands are coasting on old reputations while the actual build quality drops. You see it with tools and appliances everywhere now. They'll use a cheaper motor or plastic gear inside a metal housing, so it feels solid but dies fast. Makes you wonder if anything is actually built to last anymore.

Maybe you just got a bad unit, it happens with every brand sometimes.

Tell me about it. Honestly feels like you're just buying the name on the box these days.
