Advantages: Easy to use, attractive, long life battery Disadvantages: Not the closest of shaves
...I was fed up of disposables going rusty after one use and wanted something that I could use over and over again. I didn't have a lot of money to spend- i just wanted a basic shaver for my legs. However, after browsing vigouresly i saw the 'BraunSilk and Soft Body Shave 5100' and thought it a good deal. I was only looking for cheap leg shaver but to my suprise, the decription stated: underarm shaving, bikini trim AND leg shaving. Along with all the other features like: 'flexible foil', 'softstrip' and 'OptiShave attatchments'. I'm probably impressed to easily, because I had no idea what each feature meant, it just sounded better compared to others in the same price range. I was very impressed when I opened it because: 1, it was so easy to use (just popped in the batteries and off i went) and 2, money off at figleaves for my purchase...

Advantages: Very easy to use, very efficient Disadvantages: none at the moment
...Absolutely fantastic. Easy to use, super efficient as it can pick even very short hair. I have been using an old BraunSilk Epil for over 10 years, and although it was still working I decided that it was time to change it, and I bought this one only a couple of weeks ago. I love it. It is so much quicker, and although I did not find the other one painful, this is even less so! It has very good extras like the little rollers attachment that gently massage the area that you are "shaving", or the light (that I thought was very silly to start off with) which actually helps you see if you have missed anything. I can only say that I absolutely love this product and using it! My skin feels so much smoother ever since I have started using it....

Advantages: effective hair removal, easy to use, handy "smart light" Disadvantages: A little painful the first time you use it. Takes longer than shaving.
