I have used this clipper for over 25 yrs. I am on my second one..I was a full time groomer for some years. The only thing I miss about my old Oster is the cord was a very pliable rubber..the newer one is stiffer and gets in my way...

I used to wrap the cord around the clipper when finished and it unrolled into a straight, flexiable cord...the newer one I have retains its coiled shape...I think I will tell Oster this..it is not an improvement in my eyes...but my clipper is 4 yrs old so the newest ones may be different. Otherwise if love it.
