    I ordered one yesterday and they are out of stock, will have them back in at the end of the week or early next week, so they must be popular

    I have one. Their is a lot more compact ones out their but I went for the Ergo due to the large battery. I just use it for tails and it does a great job there. One issue I see with them is the battery connection needs to be redesigned as its flimsy, connection broke on one of my batteries so that cost me circa. 80 quid. Have the machine about three years now, does circa. 90 tails four times a year. When I was buying it they said 1. Keep the batteries switched around as they need to be used and 2. dont bother with the oil supplied, instead make up 50:50 mix of milking machine oil/green diesel in a tub and stick the head into it every two/three tails, that lubricates the blade and also clears out any hair that has made its way into the head causing friction. They gave me a free spare blade at the time but I'm still on the original one and its still as good as day one.
