"I tried to use these with a few different kinds of Andis clippers and they will absolutely not stay on the clippers. If they encounter the smallest snag in fur, they will fall off. Quickly. I spent more time trying to get these to stay on the clippers than actually clipping my dog."

If you prioritize ease of use over durability, this set might be worth considering. However, be aware of the potential issues with durability.
