I own many edgers/outliners, but I frequently travel and have learned that my Andies outliners when connected to a power converter in order to get the European/Pacific/Middle Eastern 220v to a 110v which andies are, they make an extermely loud buzzing sound on the converted current, and I've even had a few blowout. I'm told there is a way to adjust this inside the andies but have yet to be shown. So I though I would try the Osters. When I got them I was skeptical because they are pretty small but have a good weigth for their size, but I plugged them into the 110v off the converter and they barely made a sound, and they cut great. I still love my andies they feel more durable, but these osters feel sleek and reliable. They will definately stay in my collection with frequent use.
better than andis,

I have used andis for some time now. however because i am in the military, and always deployed overseas i was never able to use them. A friend told me to try Oster. I was pleased to be able to find it on Amazon for a cheaper price than what i usually paid for andis. So far these have worked very well. They feel and look well built. They have a small hum when i turn them on using the convertor. If with the convertor the andis clippers still sounded like a rocket was taking off. I recommend these to anyone stationed overseas.
