Review (5/5): Happy girl.  My favourite Epilady is resurrected.
This is a replacement for an Epilady Coil epilator that was dying after 25 years. It worked so well that even as it was going through it's death throes I refused to bury it until a proper replacement came along. Epilady must have been listening because they reissued this. Instead of working with a multiple tweezer head, this works with a coil that spins. It catches the hair and pulls it out quickly. No it's not painless, but with time it is less so and the winner is that with time the hair becomes finer and sparser so there is less to pull out and regrowth is not stiff stubble like with a razor. This is corded not battery operated like the old model, so upside, lighter weight and no batteries (had to replace the rechargeables once in 25 years), downside cord attached. For me the bother of a cord is worth being able to have the coil epilator. This is for legs only and it does a terrific job on legs. Fast, smooth, no creams, foams or other products necessary to do the job, so no mess and the time between gets longer and longer with less regrowth.
