I have had this problem with the cheaper clippers like the ones at Walmart. I bought a Golden A 5 two speed 25 years ago and have never had problems excepth when the blades were dull and need sharpening. That clipper is still running!! I have bought another as well to trade off when the first one gets hot to my hand. That and my grooming table have been my best investments. I have not used an Andis, but heard they are just as nice as the Golden A 5. Also, dont forget to use Cool Lube on the blades while you are clipping.
