Salty Dog Clippers
Verified104 reviews
Waste of money – Scissors blunt before even used and lucky if blades last 1 or 2 grooms. Machine is extremely noisy which is the.total opposite of what Salty Dog claimed. Really annoyed because I've had to spend more money on better quality blades. Now the machine itself is playing up. Not surprised Salty Dog disappeared off the market - made a quick buck and disappeared with everyone's hard earned money. Show details
Poor quality product and unresponsive company – I purchased Salty Dog clippers in April this year, choosing this company over others recommended by my vet because we wanted to support an Australian company. The scissors were blunt from day 1 which I was willing to overlook but now after using the clippers 3 times to trim only around my cavoodles eyes and nose they have stopped working. The… Read more
clippers too are relatively blunt. I believe they are still under warranty but the company hasn't replied to any contact I have made them. I strongly recommend avoiding this product.
Save your money! – I bought Salty Dog Clippers, they didn't cut through my dogs coat, and its not that thick, Maltese/poodle x, they are also very noisy. I managed to make contact via email and was told I was probably not using them correctly and to look at YouTube! The blades are difficult to change, none of them worked. No customer service, its a shame as I thought I would have better service dealing with an Australian company.

Excellent grooming set – Have had the Salty Dog Groming Kit for 12 months and cannot speak more highly of it. Have tried other clippers with no success. Our minature schnauzer looks really good after a groom. Show details · 1
Service for the Salty Dog Clippers – I have purchased the Salty Dog Clippers and various other products to support the use of these clippers. I use the clippers on my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dogs. I have found that the clippers are very good for grooming my dogs. I previously had a different brand of clipper that could not cut through the coat of my dogs, the Salty Dog… Read more · 1
clipper does an excellent job of this. I have always found the team at Salty Dog to be extremely helpful when I have had any problems and these have usually been operator issues. Thank you team for you support as I learn how to groom my dogs.

Negative reviews
Do not buy, terrible – Scissors were blunt and dirty. Clippers struggled to go through the coat of my miniature spoodle who was bathed and completely dried ready for her groom. Tried to contact twice but no response. Was even sent an email to review their product after the first complaint sent but no response. Extremely disappointed with the lack of customer service.… Read more
Have tried to allow the saltydogclippers company to assess and fix the problem but no response displays a lack of care, empathy and respect for their customers. I truly believe any positive reviews must be written by them and their family and friends.
Useless ! – These are absolutely useless. They do not cut our Cavoodle coat at all. Total waste of money. Extremely disappointed ! Their review page is a total con because they simply don’t work at all. They are packaged nicely and that’s it. Show details
Warning: DO NOT BUY – These clippers were rubbish from day 1. Didn’t clip through Groodle coat. Scissors were mostly blunt except for one small section. Customer service is non existent. Don’t even bother calling, they don’t answer and you can’t leave a message. Sent an enquiry requesting help through the website, no response over a month later. Emailed them 12 May,… Read more
never got a response. 19 May sent another enquiry through the website complaining about the lack of customer support. Got a short response, asking if the blade attachment was the issue. I replied with an explanation of the issue - the clippers don’t work, scissors are blunt and I want my money back. Haven’t heard back from them.
Andis do great clippers, slightly more expensive but you will regret buying these so save yourself the hassle and cough up another $150 (for us that’s the cost of 1.5 professional grooms so completely worth it).
If I can save one person the frustration of dealing with these cheap, crappy clippers and this uncaring business, setting up a Product Review account and posting this rant will be worth it.

Very disappointed – I bought over a year ago and used twice, they took me 3 goes to shave my poodle x Maltese each time, very disappointed now I'm back to taking him too a groomer, 200 dollars gone, noisy and gets hot quickly Show details
Noisy and hot - terrible – The clippers heat up so much that it took 4 sessions to clip my dog. They are also noisy. The scissors were also blunt. I thought I had purchased a faulty set but their communication was just to tighten the scissors. They couldn’t be tightened more. A waste of $200. They never offered a refund or a return. Show details
Do not buy this product – After taking delivery of the Salty Dog Clippers my wife and I started to clip one of our border collies. These clippers quite simply do not work. Don't waste your money. I sent an email of complaint and they didn't even have the courtesy to reply. Complete waste of $200! Rob O'Brien Show details

Great product – I’m am so impressed with this kit. The clippers are easily as good as my previous ones, which btw, cost a lot more than these. The addition of scissors, nail clippers etc is a great idea and so useful and handy to have everything in one place. Other people have said they are heavy or noisy......I found they are actually lighter and quieter than others I have used. My first clip on my very hairy Cocker was a complete success.

Disappointed – Very noisy, scares the dog. Used twice then called a dog groomer. They are an expensive paper weight. Sorry I convinced my wife to buy them, because at that price they must be good. Wrong. Show details
Hi Garry, our clippers are a heavy duty set so they do… Read more
great customer service – We had some issues with our initial clippers, partly our fault. Team Salty asked no questions, replaced the clippers and provided me with an additional blade all for free. Dog now looks like a superstar. Show details · 1
Finally something that works as expected – A\I dont normally write reviews for items I buy but in this situation i was that impressed I have made the effort. After using two other types of clippers and thinking this dog must have a double coat or something I took the plunge and ordered these clippers. Once they arrived I sat down to give them a whirl and what do you know they just went… Read more
through the coat like a hot knife through butter. Couldn't be happier so if you are reading this, look no further just place the order. You won't regret it.
Waste of money – Besides from clippers that hardly cut dog hair(medium shepherd hair so not even thick hair), to attaching the 13 mm No. 3 metal clipper is just as useless, I used my clippers for the 3rd time since we got them and the pin that holds the clipper head in has snapped.
Great value, great clippers! – At first I was sceptical that such an affordable set of clippers would cut through the very coarse and thick coat of my Airdale terrior but I was stoked with there preformance. For the cost of just two visits to the groomer we are now able to keep our best mate looking his best all the time. Very happy with the quality and service from this great aussie company. Highly recommended Show reply
Excellent Value – Very happy with clippers. Used the nail clippers first time today. Really good especially with the metal guide. Having everything in the metal case just keeps everything in one place and good condition.
Very disappointed – Very disappointed, looked at all the reviews and thought finally some great clippers. Won’t even cut with a blade on back to square one 200 down just can’t understand all the great reviews.
Awesome product and great value for money – Very impressed by the speed of service and quality of the product. Salty clippers made light work of my Shih Tzu's thick coat, they came with heaps of accessories and a great protective case. Highly recommend this product.

Fantastic kit, great value & easy to use – Very happy with Salty dog. So happy with value. Brushes, scissors,comb, nail clippers included. Easy to use. Great customer service, communication. Excited to save money on clipping for this summer. Highly recommend. & Happy to support a small Australian company. Thanks Salty dog Show reply
Don’t waste your money – Don’t waste your money buying these! They work no better than the $30 one i had previously bought and they overheat within 10 minutes making them unusable. They also don’t cut evenly and are so noisy it actually frightend my dog. They were of no assistance when I tried to discuss this with them and wanted to discuss a refund due to dissatisfaction, they were rude and dismissive.
Reviews like this make us sad :( We would never be rude… Read more
Super easy to use, excellent results – We clipped our 4 month old schnauzer for the first time with the Salty Dog clipper kit. Although she didn’t like the experience very much (to be expected), we loved how easy the clippers were to use, and all the extras that came in the kit! The comb, brush and scissors were really handy to tidy up her face. With a bit more practice, our pup will be the best looking schnauzer in town! Thanks Salty Dog!
Wow wow wow – All I can say is Wow! My girl slept through her clip and the went through her coat smoothly. Customer service was fabulous - a very happy customer
Saving me a fortune – Love the kit. I have 2 labradoodles and were costing over $100 each grooming so this has saved me so much. I also brought some extra blades so all is working just great. thanks
Perfect for a very hairy Collie – First time clipping my girl. I used everything in the kit. The clippers were great, I needed the two speeds for thicker double cost near her backside. I kept the blades oiled as recommended and had no trouble with noise. The guides also fitted without issue. Just saved myself $80 so after a couple of clips the kit will have paid for itself!
Great kit and service – Love my kit. Arrived just a few days after ordering. Everything works well. Bought other scissors and a metal comb elsewhere. I have a Poodle and a Bichon, they need stronger equipment. But the kit and service from the company are excellent. The price perfect. Thank you Salty Dog. A great company to do business with.
So happy with my purchase – I was sick and tired of paying $100 each time for my long haired Jack Russels to be groomed. Salty Dog clippers are AWESOME! My first clip was a bit rough around the edges because my Jack’s hair was so long, but I trimmed her again a week later and she looks perfect. I bought an extra size 4 blade which works perfect. Very very satisfied and happy customer. ❤️
