Andis Universal 8 Piece Large Comb Set, 12990

Bought these to go along with Andis 22405 AGC 2-Speed clippers, with a #10 and #30 blades, and they work great to cut my Golden Doodle (hair easily gets 2-4 inches long between cuts). Easy to snap on and off - spring loaded on the ends. The plastic could be a little thicker, but seems fine for personal use as there should not be any stress put on these comb guards if used properly. Read one review where they said you needed gloves to put on these guards, but I don't see that at all - attach the spring latch side first, then pull forward and down over the blade end - pretty simple once you do it a couple of times.Just note that these guards only go down to cut hair the shortest length of 5/8 inch or 16mm, so if you need to go shorter, then you'll need to get a different set (the 9-piece set). One reviewer gave these a bad rating because of this but they should have read the sizes of the guards first.Another reviewer said they hang on their dogs fur and pulled the hair, well that's probably because the dogs fur is matted or tangled some, and of course these will do that if the fur is tangled - happened with me on areas of my dogs fur. But once again, not the guards fault - keep your dogs hair combed and tangle free, and these work great. They make sure you don't cut the hair any shorter than the length guard you select.

We bought these clippers to go with our Andis Proclip Ultraedge and they are perfect. It took a bit of strength to get them on/off, but once you get the hang of it, it's fine. Our labradoodle has A LOT of hair and these bad boys can cut right through it. I use the 3/4" inch comb most often, and that will keep his coat maintained for about a month. It is so worth the cost of investing in a good set of clippers/combs! We have probably saved AT LEAST $1500 just grooming our dog ourselves. Photo post-haircut

I would have preferred the stainless steel but it wasn't available. The plastic is fine and does the job well. It was 'on sale" for under $9 so I can't complain. Clips on easily and holds tight. Tips and very pointed so be carful. I find it odd that these don't come with the clippers.

im a dog groomer. i tried these with a #10, a #15 and a #30 and if the dog's hair is thick at all (clean coat, not matted, ideal conditions) they pop right off.the sizing (length of the comb attachments) is honestly ridiculous. only 3 of them were normal lengths, the rest are honestly useless. i dont know anyone who needs blade guards in 1mm increments. i mean come on, that's just filler crap...already ordered a replacement set, which has normal lengths, and don't pop off the blade nearly as easily.cheap.ridiculous.crap.

I have a schnoodle and I like to keep Louie's hair on the longer, fluffy side. I needed a guard that would leave me an inch 1" or more on his back. This Large Comb Set by Andis did the trick!! I purchased the Andis UltraEdge AGC 2-Speed Detachable-Blade Animal Clipper - Blue (22405) together with this comb set and I couldn't be happier. The comb guides are of good quality-- they're strong heavy duty plastic. Attaching the combs to your clippers is easy as well (first hook the metal part of the comb and push up and over so that the plastic edge is secure). Hope this helps!**Note: my schnoodle's hair is very curly so I had to brush his fur thoroughly so as not to get the comb guides stuck.

I returned these because they didn't fit my Andis clippers. They are quality made pieces, just not the right ones

At first I thought the two metal tabs on the combs needed to fit into two recesses on the head of the clippers. I nearly sent them back, thinking I had ordered the wrong things... but nope. The two metal tabs just fit between two pieces of metal on the clippers. I love that they are held on with a spring-like mechanism. Being a mix of a plastic comb and metal attachment gear is rather brilliant too. Great guards. Keep in mind the smallest size is still a fairly long cut and you'll want shorter guards if you're trying to go under a half inch or so. These are remarkably nice for the 10 bucks or so that they cost too.

Gave my Labradoodle a nice trim yesterday. The combs gave me a lot of choices, she was pretty long, so I started with a longer comb then worked down to eventually the shortest comb which is perfect for her summer cut.I did figure out that since I had let her grow so long I couldn't start with the length I really wanted, so if you're having trouble getting the combs through your dogs hair..try a longer one then after that you can go shorter. Also very important to make sure you comb out all matts first if you try to shave a long haired dog with matts or debris in their hair...you're obviously going to have some trouble.Easy to install, stays nicely ont the blade. I didn't have any trouble at all.
