Best Trimmers for very nervous horse

[jump-builder]

I've got a very nervy, sensitive mare who is terrible to clip. Even with Moser avalon clippers ( meant to be some of the quietist on the market) she has to be heavily sedated and twitching doesn't seem to have much effect - she hates both the noise and the vibration of clipping.

I want to get some trimmers for tidying up before shows etc. they'll need to be up to doing feathers but have low enough sound and vibration levels to be able to use on her without sedation. Can anyone recommend anything; I like the look of lister legato trimmers-has anyone any experience of them?

I was recommended the legato clippers on here for my filly and they are really quiet but able to trim legs etc too

I have the liveryman element really quiet, best trimmers I have ever used

Thanks for your advice, I think I'll go for the legato trimmers

The Element trimmers are amazing. I had an awful horse who would throw his 17.3 body on the floor if i turned clippers on in the yard. I fully clipped him with these trimmers over 7 sessions. He is now fine to use the Avalon on, purely because he got his confidence with the Elements. I can even do his face with them!
