I love it
I purchased this product at BB&B last weekend utilizing a 20% coupon.  I had been doing my research and was ready to purchase another system that is more similar to a portable electrolysis machine that is available on the market and on HSN, but read some really bad reviews so I decided to purchase an epilator instead.  I am very happy with this purchase, I had used an epilator about 25 years ago and it was pure torture.  I found that this model is very comfortable and using it on my legs and underarms was not painful in any way whatsoever.  I had read on some other websites and product reviews that soaking in a tub of hot water before epilating helps with the pain since it opens the pores and allows the hair follicle to slip out easier.  I first tried it around my ankles to ensure that the machine held a charge, I didn't think it was doing anything since it didn't hurt even using it dry.  I called my husband into the bathroom and told him to let me try it on his leg or arm, he refused saying that he didn't want any bald spots.  He agreed to let me try it on his stomach and needless to say it definitely worked!  He jumped and yelled and sure enough there was a little bald spot where I had applied the epilator to his stomach.  Great it is working, I know that I have a higher tolerance for pain...afterall I have been through child birth and he whimpers and whines at stumping his toe.  I have also waxed for years so I think this has a lot to do with the amount of pain I can endure for the thought of being smooth for up to 4 weeks at a time.  I went ahead and filled the tub with warm to hot water and soaked for about 15 miutes, then worked the epilator over both legs and my bikini area.  I will say that the bikini area was painful but my legs and underarms didn't feel a thing.  I will either take another reviewer's advice prior to attempting my bikini area again and that is a couple of shots of hard liquor (I am thinking tequila)or I will just continue to go to my local European Wax Center and get that area tended and maintained.  Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend.
