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: Looks very nice. Waterproof. Changeable heads and settings. Disadvantages: Poor shave performance. Not a close shave at all.
-to-reach spots. It is also hard to shave areas of the body that are curvy (i.e knees, underarms, bikini). I was quite frightened to use this in delicated areas also.
Sadly, I ended up just getting my Bic disposable razor out and going back over the whole area I had attempted to shave because it was all still stubbly and ugly looking.
Silk & Soft? I think not.
I ended up buying the Seiko Cleancut, which I love. ...
