Is it better than the $20 clipper that you bought at Wal-Mart? YES. It has a powerful motor, a great battery, and it charges in 1 hour. On a full charge, it cuts for about an hour. For me, that means several haircuts per charge (I'm not a barber, just a guy who shaves his head twice a week).
Do you "need" this clipper? Of course not. Spending $200+ on clippers is downright silly. Full disclosure: these clippers ROCK! I don't regret my purchase for a moment.
If you need some reasons to your purchase, here you go:
* It's CORDLESS. Cords suck. You already have a cordless phone, a cordless razor, and a cordless drill. Why not a cordless clipper?
* It looks and feels like a $200+ clipper. It's overpriced, but at least you won't feel like you have been ripped off.
* It has a replaceable battery. Rechargeable batteries fail over time. When this battery fails, you can buy a new one (only $65!!). The battery is Ni-CD, not...Read more

I was an oster 76 man but I Just finished giving myself a haircut and fade with my new BGR+.
Im still ugly but my hair looks awesome. They are smooth quiet and powerful. I bought every functional blade size to go with them so i spent some dough but i couldn't be happier.
They are light weight and the freedom when cordless makes it a breeze to fade, free hand, and a pleasure to detail using clipper over comb.
With a BGR+ and andis t-outliner there's not much you can't do.
My only bitch and listen up Andis this is for you....for 2 big bills how about throwing in a high quality clipper cleaning brush for god's sake.
With or without the brush I would still highly recommend the BGR+ Clipper to anyone.

I agree 90% with the review posted by "James 'Jamie' Farrous." He posted a very succinct review. My only gripe is the NiCad battery, which I think they have now replaced with a NiMH.
I have owned this for 4 years, and it is still performing. I am now back to replace the battery. I am slightly disappointed because I only groom one dog. She is a Std Poodle, so it's a big groom, but I wish a NiMH battery were available when I bought this originally. I feel the NiCad is archaic technology that cannot hold enough charge, nor endure repeated charges and Andis made a mistake by using it. When I originally bought this it was my only battery option. I would be interested in hearing from a professional groomer on this on charge times and longevity etc. I also wonder if this would be too heavy for a professional [battery is very heavy]. Newer corded models are lightweight to reduce work overuse injury/fatigue.
I have honestly never monitored my exact battery times; when I...Read more
