$416.10 - New In-Depth Review of Andis Heavy Duty Sheep ShearsThe Andis Heavy Duty Sheep Shears are our favorite pair of electric shears. While some lightweight, smaller shears are popular for preparing club or market lambs for the show ring, for any other breeds we preferred Andis to Oster or some of the other, less expensive shears because they ran and stayed cool, their tough plastic case offered the perfect combination of durability and weight and we have never had an issue with the motor or other parts within these shears giving out - even after years of use preparing a flock of Hampshire and Romney sheep for the show circuit.

One other quality we like about the Andis Sheep Shears is that they were relatively quiet when compared to some competing brands. While the sound of a pair of shears isn't the chief concern (we look first and foremost for cool operation, ease of use, durability and how they perform), the fact that regular, extended use doesn't come with the risk of damage to your hearing is certainly a plus.
While expensive at just over $400, the Andis Sheep Shears come with a razor-sharp and long-lasting Cobra Cutter, an Ovina Comb, oil, a screw driver to change and adjust your combs and cutters, a blade brush for easy cleaning and a rugged, hard plastic Andis carrying case which is convenient for carrying your shears around the farm or to the fair and is a great, dry way to store your shears as it is custom-made to fit.
If you've used Oster shears in the past the good news is that Oster combs and cutters will fit these - you can keep your old Oster shears (as we did) for use around the farm and swap out the combs and cutters between Oster and Andis shears depending upon your need. This can save you money as you don't need unique sets of combs and cutters to accompany these shears.
We'll be reviewing other sets of electric shears for sheep, but the Andis Heavy Duty electric shears are our favorite and if properly maintained they can last a lifetime. Our set is still going strong after 10+ years of regular use.
