 Excellent value July 2, 2008

I purchased my first pair of these clippers about 14 years ago. They have just now worn out. I have 32 (yes, number is correct) rescue dogs currently (all neutered or spayed!) and have a lot of grooming. I have been amazed at their durability. Like another reviewer, I have knocked these off tables but fortunately they did not break. I keep the blades sharpened and have never had a moment's trouble. I'm ordering a new pair right now. I also have a Double K 401 clipper, which is more powerful (but cost 3 times as much as the Oster) but is so much heavier and very tiring to use.

When I was in high school is the mid 60's we raised standard poodles. My mom ordered a set of Oster clippers. She used them for my years. Then I used them for our small poodle. Just this last week they finally died. Many years of great service and they were finally put to rest. I immediately got on line looking for their replacement. Imagine my surprise when I found the exact same clippers on Amazon ( Golden A5-2 Speed ). I ordered them and just received them in the mail. Fast delivery and I'm anxiously waiting to try them out on our Silky Terrier. They look just like the old ones now if only they deliver the same long time service.

I purchased my original clippers back about 1985 for less than $50. They worked flawlessly for these many years on my various pairs of miniature schnauzers until, alas, I knocked them off the grooming table onto a cement floor where the case smashed into many pieces. The new one seems a replica of the old one which is refreshing since I assumed the casing now would be flimsier while encasing lesser quality innards. I'm happy to say that it seems the same great clipper as before. There were two changes I noted however. It now has two speeds and the cost has doubled.

I bought this product thinking it was going to give me years of use and take care of the thick hair that is on two of my animals. The first shaving was good, but about a month later I tried to use it again and could not get it to shave any hair at all, it just kept pulling it. I was soooooo disappointed because I paid like $130.00 for this. I clean the blades upon finishing and oil them, but nothing worked. It is just another useless gadget I will keep, hoping one day it will start working again.

I highly recommend this to any serious dog groomers and owners with dogs that require regular grooming. I own a Giant Schnauzer(GS), a breed that does not shed, so I have to give her a haircut every month. The hair on the GS is both fine and coarse. This clipper is the ONLY one that is able to cut the hair without trouble. After using it for five years, or about 60 times, I have had zero problems with it. It runs a bit hot (heating up the blade) on the higher speed after 30 minutes of continued use. I find that I can either take a break at this point and let the clipper cool off a bit, or focus on areas that are less sensitive to a warm blade. A great product that you will consistently see at major dog shows and professional groomers.
