Great for Matted Dogs
I have a cute Golden Doodle, “Nessie”, who is very prone to bad matting, especially behind her ears, but generally she gets matted all over. We like to let her hair grow long because it looks so cute, but the matts get worse as it gets longer.Previously I’d been using a basic set of Wahl clippers which simply couldn’t keep up. They would literally cut a quarter inch and then jam up. It took me over 4 hours to cut Nessie!In desperation I finally decided to splash out and go for these Oster clippers after reading good reviews. I can honestly say these clippers are AMAZING. They glide through Nessie’s matts like butter. Almost as if they weren’t there at all. I’ve had them for several months now, and given her three cuts. Each time, same result. Effortless cutting. They are definitely on the expensive side, but WORTH EVERY PENNY in my opinion.Pros:Amazing at cutting through matts.Overall very easy to use.Quiet motor.Comes with spare lubricating oil and motor grease.Long cord, so I no longer needed to use an extension cord.Cons:On the expensive side.Quite heavy and chunky, but not excessively so.Seem to get quite hot, but not so hot that it bothers my dog.Final Thoughts:I can cut my dogs hair in 1 hour now! Thats 4 times faster than when I used my old Wahl clippers. I wish I’d bought these clippers sooner. They do what they are supposed to do, and they do it very very well. Buy them, you won’t regret it.

Good for dog with thick coat and matts
These did great on the first cut, which we just finished. I hope they hold up over time. They feel solid and worked well, so don’t have any reason yet to think they won’t. We have a Golden Doodle and her coat is wiry, very tight and prone to matting. We washed and dried her first, which I’ve heard helps a lot. Generally cutting went like butter. Matts were still not as easy as I hoped but you could trim down through them much easier than other clippers. This was important to us since using scissors proved more dangerous, easier to nip her skin, or pull on a sensitive area than using the trimmers.I tried several other clippers, including some $60 that I thought were enough. These were by far the best and left me feeling like it was worth the investment. I did only run them on low for now and that worked fine. I tried high once when cutting through a Matt and it didn’t seem to be necessary.They do get hot somewhat quickly but I didn’t find it too bad for the dog or me. Seemed like a decent tradeoff to be able to get through the job more quickly, I waited a couple mins for them to cool down once. I do wish we had some type of comb attachment to help keep things even but I’m not sure if that would even work because of how tangly her fur is. I’m hoping we can clip more often to avoid the matts now that we have a decent clipper.

Persian Cat
Purchased this to use on my persian cat.First time using it, my cat was really matted and fur was very long. This was excellent at cutting through her mats! It worked like a knife through soft butter. I was really impressed with how easy it was to use and how efficiently it cut. It does get hot super fast so you do need cooling spray and/or an extra clipper to use while this one cools down. I had a small chi I used while this cooled. It also is louder than I expected, other reviewers said it was super quiet but I found it to be louder than other clippers I have used. I did use the slower setting also, because the faster setting scared my cat too much. I did not use clipper guards, as I really needed to get to her skin, and it REALLY got to her skin. I knicked her a few times. So if you are not going to use guards, be very careful.The second time I used it my cat’s hair wasn’t as long or matted, but I wanted to keep her at about an inch. So I purchased the guards and used them with it. The guards made it a lot more difficult, the hair kept getting clogged after less than a minute and I had to clean and brush it out. It took forever, even longer than the first time. It was good because I never got too close to her skin, and her look afterwards was very nice, but it was a pain and doubled the amount of time.I have used several different clippers on my cat, and despite this one getting hot quickly and being loud, it really is the best I have used.

Endurring Design, Fair Price, American Company with Great Service
It seems like the A5 has been around since the 90’s, and similar Oster models much longer. It is a simple design, easy to maintain, and functions reliably. Replacement parts are readily available. I am not a professional, but do no see the need to spend $100+ for a different brand.I had a minor issue registering these clippers on the website. This is a common issue among many companies, with broken links or incompatible browsers. An email to Oster support was all it took. Their reply was quick an painless.Its great to support an American company that has a superior product, great service AND a fair price.

Cuts way better and faster then the $50 kit I purchased the last two times. Two cuts on dog so far and that means this is half paid for already. I need to shave my golden down to half inch during the summer due to a skin condition and too much lake time. I am able to keep it up over the summer now and not let her grow out between cuts. Worth the extra price when you consider ease of use and cost savings over professional cuts.
