We own an aussie/shepard mix whose fur is extremely thick. A previous prof.clipper would take me hours and eventually burned out after a year. When I read that someone posted this cuts through fur like a hot knife cutting butter I had to try it. Well let me tell you this thing is POWERFUL!! In fact I was not expecting it to work that well and ended up taking my dogs coat down to a buzz by accident with the first pass!! Anyway, I evened her up and was done within an hour. I might look into another size blade for a longer cut. Found the device to be easy to handle, not too heavy or loud. Did not overheat. Highly recommend, worth the money.

FINALLY clippers that will cut through my aussie's long fur and think undercoat! The clippers get warm and are a bit heavy, but its worth it given it took me 10 minutes tops to shave him down compared to an hour or more with my old ones.

The top-line Oster and top-line Andis clippers are the best, in my book. I actually prefer the Andis Andis Ultra Edge AGC Super 2 Speed Clipper because it has a more ergonomic shape, but the Oster is a terrific clipper. Both are rugged, reliable, and fully repairable. They take the same blades and accessories. You can't go wrong with this unless you have tiny hands.

I have a Maine Coon and a long haired Tabby. Both have been impossible to cut with anything else. These clippers worked great and it was fast. Well worth the price considering what a groomer costs.

I do my own dog grooming. This product is the perfect tool to assist in a professional looking job. I would highly recommend it.
