Very good! And priced well.
"This is the first epilator I've used. I chose this one based on the reviews here, and I'm glad I did. I was sick of shaving and don't want to wax so thought I'd try this.

So-so
"I have been using an epi for over 25years. From the original spring to now the tweezers. Trust me the tweezers are much less painful. I am disappointed in this brand.

"I received the Braun Silk-epil today and got straight to work on my bikini area (the sole reason I purchased this item).
It worked like a charm! It was a bit painful (3 to 5 on a scale of 1-10) and I had to take a few short breaks. But what do you expect? It pulls the hair out by the roots. B
