Hair-raising., 8 Sept. 2013

I'm a long-term user of epilators and a big fan of the Braun range. This cheaper alternative showed exactly why you get what you pay for. The shape of the device itself was a bit clumsier and less ergonomic than its competitors. It was noisy and pretty brutal; it hurt more than any other I have used, and left plenty of raised bumps on my skin which stung when I had a shower the following morning.This is what I imagine epilators to have been like 20 years ago, and given how much better they are nowadays, I genuinely don't understand the USPs of this one.

Fairly good., 12 Aug. 2013

I got this for my daughter and below are her thoughts and review of it:No hair removal method is full-proof and pain free (except maybe shaving, but the hairs grow back coarse with this one). I already have an epilator, and so I was interested to get this one, to see if it was better than the one I already own. I can't really say that it was. Though not the worst, I don't think this model is the best: it took quite a few passes to remove the hair, and even then some strays were left behind. So overall, I'm giving it 3 stars, because I feel it is fairly good, as I said not the worst, but not the best either

Good value for money but could be better, 14 Sept. 2013

My wife thought this epilator was good value for money. It is a product that does what it says on the tin, though she would have paid a bit more money for other attachments such as trimming and shaving.A good feature is that you can remove the epilating head to wash it under the sink. This ensures the tweezers are always clean and the epilator will last longer. There is just one piece of advice - do not follow the instructions of using it in a circular motion, as even though this does reduce the pain of epilating there are a lot more ingrown hairs!Overall, this is a good product but could do with more attachments to make it a more complete package.
