Disappointed
Firstly I think the "smoothe for 4 weeks" claim is a load of rubbish. Braun also claim that the epilator can pull out hairs as small as a grain of sand. I don't think this is true, I have to let the hair on my legs get a few mm long in order to epilate. There are always hairs that it just doesn't seem to get and I never feel silky smoothe after using it. It seems to me that a lot of the hair gets broken off at the skin instead of the roots being pulled out which means I have to epilate again a few days later after these hairs have grown so I can pull them out too. A week or so later I start to notice the hairs growing back. In reality I think that I have to epilate every two weeks rather than every month like it claims.<br /><br />I think the massage cap is really good, I can definately tell the difference between it and the efficiency cap, the pain is much reduced. The smart light is also really really good although that may be one of the reasons that I am not completely satisfied with the product... because I can see the hairs that aren't pulled out.<br /><br />I don't really see the advantage to being able to use the epilator in the shower. I think it works better dry and the pain isn't sufficiently reduced under hot water.<br /><br />The battery life is good, it last for about 45 minutes and it doesn't take very long to charge.<br /><br />I think it is probably better than other epilators that I have used but I am just a little disappointed because all the hype surrounding the product made it sound better than it is. It definately beats shaving.
