KM2 45w mains Electric Clipper
 
Designed by MOSER of Germany the KM2 is an exciting new addition to an already prestigious range of clippers manufactured by this International German Company who have a long history of creating some of the most reliable clippers built. Many horse owners still use the Rex Moser Clippers introduced two decades or more ago, which have reputation for amazing performance, and longlevity.

Owners of nervous horses and other animals have been delighted at once again being able to clip in a stress free manner when using the amazing KM1 clipper - the fore runner to the KM2. The KM1 Clipper amazed people by its sheer versatility, even professional operators who normally don't rate these smaller clippers acknowledged the outstanding performance of this machine, whether clipping horses, cattle, alpacas, lamas, goats, or performing on a wide range of dogs in a busy groomers' parlour.

The KM2 Clipper matches and builds upon the brilliant performance already established by the KM1 not only in the field of clipping horses, but as a totally professional dog parlour machine, meeting fully the every day needs of a busy dog grooming parlour.

MOSER as usual, continues to display appreciation of customer requirements, - building into their clippers the valuable design features - of lightweight handling ability, low noise level, and cool running under prolonged conditions. Understanding that not everybody enjoys using a large and cumbersome handpiece. MOSER provide the operator with a neatly shaped and comfortable to handle clipper body. This is really appreciated when clipping the legs of horses or cattle, when a long handpiece is a real pain! These values combined with high quality engineering, reliability and affordable prices, make the KM2 Clipper a new and exciting addition to the range of MOSER machines already professionally established in the world of animal clipping and grooming.

 
GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION:
KM2 model with a powerful 45w motor and two speed clipping facility has the ability to cope with a range of clipping tasks normally only undertaken by larger machines. Used as a "full body" horse clipper, or as professional dog-grooming machine, it has already established in the USA a reputation for professional reliability at all levels of clipping tasks. The attractive style of the newly designed casing enhances a combination of balance and lightness, ensuring precision clipping to the highest standards. A number of features put this machine into a superior category:- two speeds clipping over prolonged periods without overheating - low vibration - ability to use all Oster "snap-on" blades as well as other similar types of blades

CONCLUSION:
We have come to expect a high standard from Moser products, The KM2 suggest these standards are being maintained. Any new clipper enjoys a "honeymoon" period, but eventually the "day of reckoning" comes and a need to establishes a reputation for reliability and endurance is made or lost. Any clipper, whatever the make, requires a competent Service Department with skilled operators to deal with servicing and repairs effectively and efficiently. A clipper is only as good as the blades it uses, therefore the effectiveness and skills in re-sharpening blades all add to the public perception of a good product. On their record Moser are in the top league for quality and reliability. We have no reason to believe from what we have seen and been told about this clipper that our confidence will not be upheld.
 
ON THE DOWN SIDE!
A clipper of this standard should be sold complete with a plastic carrying case and not in the now dated image of a box. It is disappointing that it was necessary to put the on/off switch at the side rear end of the machine. It is safer to have switches in close proximity of the operator's thumb in the case of an emergency especially where animals are concerned. Lastly, as this machine is likely to be introduced into the wider horse and cattle clipping arena's, attention to the "wide" (horse and cattle) blade range is now important. The range of blades available for horses and livestock is too limited and this matter needs redressing with a degree of urgency.
 
VERDICT:
Nice product, it will be much appreciated in both the dog grooming and the horse-clipping world. Very good quality at sensible money. Highly rated and recommended.
