Review (3/5): 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.
Among it's flaws:
Flaw 1: the battery compartment is too large for the battery, so the battery rattles around and loses contact, so the shaver loses power.
Flaw 2: the on/off switch is very cheap; the contact point bends and breaks easily, so the shaver loses power.
Flaw 3: the outside casing is very slippery and can be difficult to hold onto.
Flaw 4: compared to the Cleancut, the Body Bare's blade assembly is made of cheaper, less sturdy plastic.
All in all, the Body Bare is cheaply made and it shows. It's just not a product with a long life.
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.
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.
