I used to use (before becoming a razor convert) the Oster with the #00000. It does a great job. It is a little unweildy to use on your own crown and it does get pretty warm.

It is a workhorse and very reliable. I love mine and I think if I was to ditch every hair product I owned but for one, the Oster with the #00000 would be it.

Thank you for this thread, it's been very helpful.

Does anyone have an opinion specifically on how the Andis T-Outliner vs. the Wahl Balding Clipper compare for getting the best/closest head shave?

I have just tried the Wahl balding clippers so far and I am very happy with them. It gives you a very close buzz. When you rub your head with the grain it feels smooth at some parts.

Hi all,

Looking for a good clipper. ATM, i'm using the one they sell at Costco.

I'd like to get a good one that shaves close enough (1 day or so i guess). Really important, i want one that won't cut me, is easy to use and won't take me too much time. I might be asking a lot, but price is not a problem.

Thank you

I didn't like some of the reviews about the fact that it leaves deep gashes in your skin and a lot of people are cutting themselves.

How about Oster 76 or Philips?

Thanks

Great review -I would like a clipper to just leave me with the 'stubble' look (around a day or two's growth) what one would you recommend for this ?

Oster clippers and their 00000 blade will give you the closest shave you can get with this kind of electric.  If you invest in an Oster you'll have it for a lifetime.  Even if parts wear out they are easily replaced.  Not cheap, but super high quality and reliability.
