#29 in Hair clippers · 4.6 ★ (7,304)

It's at the top of its own range. Number 29 in Hair clippers, the best we've recorded for it, and it's been on the list 10 weeks without a break. Over the past 2 years, observed pricing has moved between $119.99 and $144.99; this week's $119.99 sits near its 52-week low. Against the wider Hair clippers field, it has marked down deeper than the field over the past quarter. About 6 a week, with the 4.6-star average unmoved over eight weeks — new buyers are broadly agreeing with the old ones.

Is now a good time to buy the Wahl Professional 5 Star Cordless Detailer Li?

Active Promotional MarkdownExpected: RISING SOON

Typically price does not fall much more than this. Currently observed at $119.99, 14% below its standard $139.99 shelf baseline. Most of the time a markdown period like this typically lasts about 6 weeks over the past 2 years. Now that we are already in such a period, it's quite likely that price is heading back toward $139.99 before too long. If your research and product reviews have already convinced you that Wahl Professional 5 Star Cordless Detailer Li is worth your money, this might be a good time to finalize that decision. Obviously we cannot guarantee that price will definitely go back up or that it will not go down further. But historically we have observed that this is a typical window of opportunity.

Category Contenders & Field Comparison

Price-wise, the Wahl Professional 5 Star Cordless Detailer Li and the NORELCO Norelco 7000 Trimmer Face are in a dead heat this week. You will not spend noticeably more on either one, making everyday usability the deciding factor.

Here is an interesting angle from our weekly numbers: the BaBylissPRO Barberology FX3 Shaver Collection usually sells in a higher price tier, but it has temporarily dropped right into this same ballpark. Check the baseline figures in the comparison below to see if you can get a higher-spec model for similar money. Take a peek at the full comparison table below to see how these contenders stack up on price, sales rank, and buyer ratings.
