PetEdge: Andis AG Single-Speed Clipper
Anyone can order from Petedge, they are a good company to deal with. I have done mail order with them for over 10 years.
This clipper has detachable blades that snap on and off the clipper. however, I do not like the Andis blades very much, I prefer the Osters. The clipper comes with a 10 blade which is ok but I buy the Oster for other sizes.
To cut down a Yorkie coat, I usually use a 7F in summer,on the body doing a schnauzer type of clip. Wiinter I will use a 4F or 5F depending on the coat.
Ears I use a #40.
Yesterday, I bought their two speed it has a little more power as I do have some client dogs, mixed breeds of various sorts, that have a much heavier coat and the single speed has a little trouble getting through that coat, I have to keep reclipping.
The single speed Andis is comfortable to use, light, and for most will do a good job.
I used to use the Oster Golden but they are too heavy big and clumsy in comparison.
Grooming several dogs a day like I do or any professional groomer, clippers are important.
