Golden power!

by rednkgrl , Jul 31 '02
Pros: It gets the job done!
Cons: Retains heat.
I purchased my Golden A5 Two speed clippers four years ago to clip our cocker spaniels. I would never dream of buying another brand.

The Golden A5 two speed clippers come equipped with; low speed for around the animals face and private area,...

CLIPPING YOUR OWN PET IS THE WAY TO GO!

by calwaone Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Feb 06 '01
Pros: AS A PAST DOG GROOMER, THIS IS THE BRAND THAT I ALWAYS BOUGHT!
Cons: COULD BE CONSIDERED EXPENSIVE UNTIL YOU REALIZE HOW WELL THEY DO WORK!
At one time, I raised and groomed teacup poodles. I would never use any brand of shaver on the pets except Oster! With Oster A5 2-Speed Clippers, you can rely upon an evenly done job, as long as the groomer has a steady hand and is in charge of the pet!...

Oster-A Name I Can Depend On

by alexus , Nov 23 '00
Pros: durability, two speed motor, cooling fan
Cons: weight of the clippers is a little heavy
I do dog grooming in my spare time as well as groom my own. Having a multi poodle family I was forced to learn to groom as a cost effective measure.

I started with a less expensive brand of clippers by a competitor and within the first two...

A dog's best friend

by basketmom , Oct 25 '00
Pros: Easy to use
Cons: A little pricey, but they pay for themselves after a few uses
As a former vet tech (now a stay at home mom of 2) I used these clippers on a daily basis. From prepping for surgery, to clipping gum from a Persian cat's hair, these are by far the best.

I also purchased these clippers for my own personal...

Schnauzers best

by STYKS2 , Oct 25 '00
Pros: Reliability
Cons: price
I chose the Oster A5-2clippers for the reputation that Oster has. I have purchased a few Oster clippers, and find them all quite reliable. I especially like the A5-2clippers for the double speed. My schnauzer doesn't mind being clipped, but she...

Can I frame mine?

by chance2run , Oct 12 '00
Pros: Great reliability, smooth operation, years of use
Cons: They do get very hot, just check them every now and then and give them a break when they get too warm
When I purchased my Oster A5 clippers I never intended them to be used on my dogs!

I bought my clippers over 5 years ago as a product to use on my HORSE!

Since we belong to a mounted security unit it is important to keep him looking...

A Workhorse

by KSchoeffield , Oct 06 '00
Pros: easy to handle, quick change of blades, extra power for matted coats
Cons: Pricey for pet owners,
I have been a dog groomer for over 32 years. I have used lots of clippers but nothing has done the job day after day like the Oster A-5 Clipper. I have an Oster A-5 clipper that is 25 years old and still running. That clipper is a little noisy but I...

OSTER A-5: Still the Standard by Which Others are Judged

by sherrylee Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 04 '00
Pros: Powerful, excellent control, tough and well made
Cons: Expensive, retains heat
My dogs, Dobermanns, are of a breed that requires very little in the way of grooming. Regular brushing and whisker and brow clipping (for show dogs) and they're good to go. As I was active in showing at the time I bought these clippers, I decided to take...

Not as expensive if you look around
by patriotsrking ,Mar 19 '09
Pros: Havent used it yet but I'm guessing my Doodle will be shaved in no time
Cons: None yet
I just bought this clipper from DiscountJungle.com linked from  Pricegrabber for $134, my last A5 golden single speed, which I bought 15 yrs ago, was $189.  Go get one of these beauties at the Jungle if you want to save some dough.
