Clipper recommendations please

[spotty_pony]

As title. My old and faithful Heinigers have a broken spring and Heiniger do not know if/when they will be able to source the part so looking at other options. Budget of about £300.
Any recommendations?

Try asking R T Anthony of Docklow Leominster. I think they keep spares of old clippers.

Heiniger progress! Fabulous clippers.

How much clipping do you need to do? I’ve seen many buying big, strong (and expensive) clippers when they actually only clip their own horse a few times during winter. I think the money could be used wiser.

I have a lister star and am very happy with it. Does a nice clip, is not too heavy and I find the blades go a long way before they need sharpening. I do clip other horses than my own, but usually only go through 2 sets each season. And the clipper is handy enough to do legs, details etc.

I clip as a profession and average at 70 clips per season so they need to be heavy duty!
