A little disappointed

A little disappointed
I was under the impression that this would be rechargeable but it isn’t! It needs 4 AA batteries which is kind of a hassle. It also doesn’t feel super sturdy but I hope I will be proven wrong by that. I have not yet been able to try it because I was not expecting it to need batteries. I am quite impressed with the fact that the guard on the top has different sized holes for different sized dogs nails. That was something that I didn’t quite think of. After using this for the first time I realized that on 1 it is very slow and kinda quiet but it doesn’t work efficiently and on 2 it is super fast and super loud but as soon as you touch it to the dogs nail it loses some of its power. It seems kind of weak and it takes a while to shave down the nails but it does work. I also tried it with the guard on and that is just a waste of plastic. Maybe it’s just because my dog is tiny but when his nail was overgrown it could barley reach through the guard to get cut. I ended up taking the guard off and doing it that way. It worked much better like that.
