OSTER Fast Feed Adjustable Pivot Motor Clipper 76023-510

I was looking though my old Amazon buys and I had to give this item some love. It's been over 5 years & I have had zero issues with these clippers & I hardly clean and oil them. Easily the best clippers I have ever owned and I would HIGHLY recommend them!

Relevant background: I have been cutting my own hair for the last 14 years. During that time I more or less settled on Wahl brand clippers. The problem is that the Walh clippers dulled relatively quickly, got clogged with hair easily and took many passes to get it right because of the inferior attachments and the attachments popping off. But for the price of 20-30 some bucks to replace every year or so, it was ok. However I've found the newer models of wahl clippers have used cheaper and flimsier attachments. The attachments got so cheap that if you pushed too hard on your head, the attachment would distort. Well that's exactly what happened. I mean can you at least not scrimp so bad that it defeats the purpose of the product? None the less, I tracked down a set of older and better made attachments and went to business as usual. To do a perfect job took me about 30 minutes to cut my hair because you have to make many passes from where the attachments push the hair down and where in general the clippers don't get unless you brush the clogged hair out for every 6 or so inches of hair cutting. If you've done this as much as I have, you know what I mean. I had enough, I flushed enough money down the toilet on Wahl. One day I got pissed and decided to invest a few extra bucks in my next set. I researched the models out there and this one came very highly recommended in the intermediate price range. I purchased it and have used it three times since I got it. It works great, it flys through the hair no problem and it does not clog with the cut hair. I can cut my hair in about 5 minutes instead of 30. The attachments are thin without being flimsy, so you don't have to go over the same place over and over. The attachments also slide on from the top/front end of the blade and lock into place so, no matter how hard you push on your head, the attachments will never pop off. I wish I got one of these years ago. The construction is way more solid that the walh brand. It is heavier and obviously has a better motor. The blades go through everything without a problem. This is a great clipper for someone like me who only uses it about once a month. People seemed to complaint about the noise- if you are that sensitive to sound then you have issues. You are literally pressing a buzzing motor against your head...you want it to not be loud? It does get hot like people say, so I would not recommend using it without attachments for more than 15 minutes without a break. I would not use it cut my dogs hair without letting it cool completely which may take awhile. My advice....get it

Hello if ya'll don't know these Fast Feeds are amazing. They cut at a 000-1A ... I used them 2 weeks ago on myself and wow, they cut evenly and left me so crispy. (a good thing) My fade was legit. I did a bald fade. yup. fresh Amazon was fast and very professional. When I cut my hair the clippers didn't get hot AT ALL. When I cut my cousin's hair I noticed a lil more about the heat. These clippers don't start heating up until about 25+ minutes or so and even then they only get warm. Not too hot. Pros: Light in hand, arm doesn't get tired as fast. They are quiet and powerful. They can cut through both wet and dry hair. I thought I needed two of them but I cancelled one seeing as to how much of a quality clipper this is. MADE IN THE USA BABY! The only cons I have about these bad boys They don't come with a full set of attachments but you can always get those purple Andis magnetic guards.. Conclusion: I love these clippers. They are of high quality. ***Update 12/27/2015 - I have been using these on myself and on my friends to develop my skills. Some 400-500 hair cuts later, they still work great. I use these for precision blending, fading out to higher levels of cutting. Great tool. Only needed one after all. I have been using them for years and they only heat up if you don't lube em up right. I use Andis Cool Care spray while they're on to let the oil work itself in. I use em for like 30-45 minutes sometimes and then they start to warm up. If you're looking for a clipper to take out the bulk in a salon setting, use a different one. These can do it but I associate them with blending. I went a little crazy and bought two of these, two of the Limited Edition Chrome ones, and I just bought the Oster Topaz Fast Feeds... Next is going to be the black Oster Speed Line and blue Fast Feeds.

Había estado utilizando clippers de marca Wahl pero siempre su duración ha sido muy corta y son ruidosas; la Oster no es tan ruidosa y corta muy bien. Habrá que esperar la duración, pero se ve mucho más fuerte y mejor construida. Es casi profesional. Su único problema es que se calienta muy rápido, tal vez unos diez minutos trabajando y ya es incómoda para la persona que está recibiendo el corte. Punto a mejorar. A mi me gustó mucho la máquina.

Used for the first time today with much anticipation. I was impressed. Doesn't quite cut right down to the scalp on 0 setting as well as my Wahl's, however it is very very minimal difference, but the way they cut is so much better. Feel like it is made really well. Cutting blade didn't snag, pull or struggle once and that was even with cutting 3 weeks hair growth. Glad I paid the extra for these as they cut really well.

***My review down below was when we first purchased the clipper. Its been ten months since we had it now and it is fantastic!*** We are a family of seven, with four males. We use clippers quite often in our household. As you can imagine, any set of clippers would get a very good work out in our house. We have used Conair brands for a longtime. They function ok for the price. However when our six year old Conair (which is heavy - made it feel like a quality product, powerful and noisy) was giving us problems we bought another brand by Emerson. All I will say you get what you pay for! So we looked for another Conair and could not find one that had the same quality. I googled best clippers and came across this Oster 76023. The reviews of it were glowing. I also remember that many barbers I went to, when I was younger used Oster brand. I figured it must be quality. So through Amazon.ca I ordered one. When we received it I opened up the box to get a feel of it. It felt "heavy" not cheap and plasticky. And by heavy I also mean quality. It felt natural in my hands. When I plugged it in and started it up I was expecting it be loud. However, this unit is extremely quiet when compared to other clippers. In my mind I thought it was another cheap one. Boy was I wrong. I immediately began to cut my 17 year olds hair. Now his hair was about an 1 1/2" long. This clipper had no problem cutting it, even though the longest comb that comes with it is 1/2". I then cut my 13 year olds hair which was a lot shorter and no issue. No pulling the hair either. I then cut mine. It cut it very well. I am totally impressed by this clipper. Three back to back hair cuts and no issues. I highly recommend this clipper. The only downfall is that it does not come with longer combs than 1/2", but that is how Oster sells it. An added bonus which won me over even more, is that this clipper says "MADE IN THE USA". To me "Made in USA or Made in Canada" means quality.

Expensive but worth it. After years of using well known domestic clippers I have at last found quality in Oster. Cut better, quicker, and cleaner.

Cuts well. On my second one. My first broke a tooth and now it yanks hair. The tooth broke /bent in a fall. Otherwise first one still worked well.
