This is the best clipper IMO, and I am comparing this to top of the line Oster, Wahl and Andies. The handleIs the perfect size and had alot of grip definety not slippery. The. Blade is very smooth and sharp. The adjustabke arm has alot of micro adjustments for fading. If you see it and feel it you know its high end not cheap. As for the One Battery system. I really, really like. People will complain when it is something new be open minded it, after a few charges you will understand why the made it like this The battery life is long but. lets say that you ran out of a charge. All you have to do is push the button and , slideSwap it out with a new ONE battery. NO CORD to stick in the. Bottom. Its just a well thought out design I wouldBuy it again in a second. Pair this with their edger and you have an awesome setup.
