Review (2/5): Ugh...
I purchased this epilator after my first love (Satinelle HP 6401) slowly came to an end (after lasting more than 5 years). With high expectations of it's double head tweezers I eagerly set out to epilate (is that a word?), but at last, I was met with great disappointment. Attempting my under arms first, it was a struggle to use this larger double-tweezer head (thicker) on the curves of my arm pits (and I'm a pretty small person). It just would not pick up the hairs as it should and I eventually sat with my personal tweezers plucking out every last hair... On to my legs, it took some practice, but you have hold it at a 90 degree angle and move it back and forth like you would an eraser, short movements. Together with the short length of the tweezer head, this short movement made this process take forever. Be prepared to spend a few hours on this.. (and yes, the head is thicker and shorter than my previous Satinelle model). I've always loved using an epilator, but this one hurts more! I think its due to the back and forth motion. The hairs seem to break as well because I never get that smooth finish that I used to. I also used an epilator on my B-line... same problem I had with my under arms! It just doesn't fit the natural curves of the body. I found myself in some strange positions trying to hold the skin tight and angle this thing to reach places that should have been a breeze. Oh! And let me warn you... if you bend your legs at your knee and use this thing to come up your calf or to get at the side of the knee, be warned that it could grab your skin and practically suck it into the rotating head - painful!!! Keep your eye on to any lose skin! (And again, I'm pretty slim with not much lose skin). My reviews? Save yourself the drama and buy the Satinelle HP 6401! The E-rase is a waste of time (literally! hourssss I will never get back!).
