I also had one burn an engine out when it was only 2 wks old and had to be sent back THREE times for warrenty work before they finally just sent me a new replacement pair.

That's just been my experience with the Laube's... I originally tried out a pair because they DO come in great colors

That's when I learned COLOR doesn't matter when it's a tool, workability does

Yep, exactly! And until Oster did something about their housings (last year), they would crack if you breathed on them wrong too!

One word to describe Oster if you're a groomer/heavy user of clippers IMO: YUCK!!!!!!

Wow, I wish i'd seen this thread yesterday. I've been wondering which clippers i should buy and yesterday I ordered the Wahl Pro Series Rechargeable Clippers. I didn't want to spend any big money just yet on clippers.

Does anyone have or know about the Wahl clippers I just ordered?
If you have them how do you like them?
