Works at first, but breaks easily.
The Body Bare was the first personal shaver I ever bought. It seemed great at first, but has proven a disappointment.  The shaver is very cheaply made and has significant design flaws.<br /><br />Among it's flaws:<br />Flaw 1: the battery compartment is too large for the battery, so the battery rattles around and loses contact, so the shaver loses power.<br />Flaw 2: the on/off switch is very cheap; the contact point bends and breaks easily, so the shaver loses power.<br />Flaw 3: the outside casing is very slippery and can be difficult to hold onto.<br />Flaw 4: compared to the Cleancut, the Body Bare's blade assembly is made of cheaper, less sturdy plastic.<br /><br />All in all, the Body Bare is cheaply made and it shows. It's just not a product with a long life.<br /><br />My Body Bare died twice; once within a month of receiving it and then again a few months after supposedly being repaired. After consulting recent reviews I replaced it with a Cleancut and the Cleancut is the far superior shaver.  It trims more quickly, is more slender and easier to maneuver, and has a textured shaft for better grip.  The Body Bare needed a new battery every 3-4 weeks, whereas the Cleancut is going strong on one battery after 2 months of use. If you are seeking a personal shaver, go with the Cleancut rather than the Body Bare.<br /><br />The trimmer (a separate item from the razor, sold here as a set) is actually a good one in terms of function, but it fell apart after less than a year of use.
