00:00There is no faster way to lose a sheep's respect than a half-shorn look on the day of shearing.
00:04I went through the cheapest, highest-rated gear on the internet so you don't have to,
00:08and these five wool shearing machines every sheep farmer needs actually earned their spot in the
00:13barn. Some run under 50 bucks. One handles alpacas. One runs cordless. Starting at the top,
00:22this 2500 watt clipper is the beast of the group. Six speed settings let you dial the cut in exactly
00:29where you want it, and it ships with a 13-tooth clipper plus a box of spare blades.
00:34It pushed through a full-bodied you without stalling. Just over 105 bucks, which is more
00:40than the others, but if you shear every week, this is the one that keeps going. Next up is the
00:451280
00:46watt version that still comes with the 13-tooth clipper and a case. Same six-gear speed control,
00:52a gentler power draw, and it carries a five-star average from nearly 4,700 buyers.
00:58For about a hundred two, you get the full package most people assume they have to spend way more
01:03for. Then there is the 1000 watt all-rounder. Sheep, goats, horses, alpacas, it genuinely does
01:10not care. Six gears, a scissor-style cutter head, and more than 4,100 units already sold.
01:18Just under a hundred dollars. If you run a mixed herd, this is the one that never sits in the
01:24corner of the shed. Now the cordless one, and honestly it surprised me.
01:29A brushless 950 watt motor with a DeWalt 20-volt battery pin, so it uses the battery you already
01:35own. No cord dragging through the pen, no generator humming in the background.
01:4174 bucks for that kind of freedom is hard to argue with.
01:45Finally, the budget option. This one runs on 220 or 110 volts, has six speeds and a 13-tooth blade,
01:53and it will happily take alpacas as well as sheep. 43 bucks, 36 cents, still a five-star average.
02:01If you are only shearing a couple of animals a month, start here.
02:05Links for every one of these are in the description, prices and all.
