Hair Clippers

Interested in getting a pair of hair clippers.

Come acrosss the Philips/philishave QC5070 which has a telescopic head - advertises itself on ease of use. Anyone tried one of these... wondered how they might compare to a more traditional Wahl (which is a name intrinsically associated with hair!)

Tempted to go rechargeable.

    Hi,i've had a set of Wahl for over 10yrs (Its been used every week since i bought it) I think if you use a good oil to lube the blades,they will last for ever.Cheap & does the job,Wahl get my vote
