If you are just doing face, feet, and tail I think a cordless would be ok.

If you're going to be doing all over clipping, you'd be wise to get a corded clipper. It won't lose it's charge and thus lose power as you clip. I don't do anything with cordless clippers at all actualy - ever. I hate them, but thats just me and I tend to be kind of picky and anal about certain things. I think it's just as easy to use a corded clipper as it is to use a cordless one, both take some getting used to. Most importantly, think about how much you are planning to do with the clippers and decide what you think you will be most comfortable handling.

Where did you pay 190.00 for an ultra edge clipper Jen ??? You got ripped off....

Another note on blades/clippers for little dog feet; I use my reg size clippers but for really tiny dogs I use a "toe blade" which is a blade that fits a regular clipper but the actualy cutting egde is like 1/3 of the size. They are handy I don't use them on every small dog but I do on some.

knock on wood, I've never had an issue with my ultra edge getting hot faster than any other brand and I own two pairs... ??? Right now it's the only clipper I use. I've had some bad experiences with other brands. I had a pair of oasters that thank god were a gift so I didn't pay money for them. One of the newest models they came out with the protoge' or whatever it's called. The damn things were so loud I thought they would take flight. You certainly couldn't hold a conversation and use them unless the person you were talking to was right on top of you. I also have a set of walh switchblades which feel awsome to hold and are wonderfuly lightweight but they are crap.... really expensive crap I might add.

Thats what Petsmart and Petco had listed last I looked. Maybe it was 179.00 but that was the least Ive seen here for that clipper. However, I didn't get ripped off, mine was FREE. lol The lady I bought Eli from gave me a extra clipper she had laying around and that was the one.

Pet edge has that clipper listed in the 130 range if memory serves. Glad you didn't have to pay anything for yours though, espeicaly not 190... good lord. I know sometimes shipping is a concern ordering from places like petedge or ryans buuuttt sometimes you can get around it which definitly makes it lower priced.

Sounds like a great deal, poodle plus clippers... priceless

Wow, thats something.... free poodle with purchase.

I was talking to Nikki's (the spoo in my super groomer thread) mom today and she said it would be nice if the breeder I was speaking to could do a buy one get one free deal on a puppy. She isn't serious of course, she knows better, but we got a laugh out of it anyway.
Then we started talking about all the poodles she could have if she won the lottery.
