I recommend the Wahl Bellissima clippers - they are cordless (but can be used with a cord as well), they are lightweight and they are very quiet compared to most of the standard corded clippers. I love mine . . . I use them all the time, for everything including complete shave downs. The blade is adjustable (they do NOT use a standard A5 blade), and you can get good blade combs for them if you use those kinds of things.
