The perfect show clippers?

If you were purchasing your dream clippers what would they be? What do I need to look for in a pair?
Thanks.

I have used alot of clippers over time. I love my Lister Stablemates, both with the livestock blades and the cover coat (which you can clip black does with the day before a show without slicking them, or leaving marks, or making them look awful). Pared with the Andi's Super Plus Maroon clippers for udders, ears and faces, and it's a wonderful pair of fitting clippers. Vicki

I have the Oster Golden A-5 for my goats. The A-5 aren't as loud or hot as they used to be. The best thing to remember is to have a tuna can with oil in it to dip as you are clipping. It cleans out the blades and keeps it cool.
