jml guarantee worthless

Advantages: if it works ok
Disadvantages: if it doesnt work guarantee worthless

When jml discontinues a product ( and if you check www.jmldirect.com you will find very few products are actually current} it sells the stock to an "independant buyer", their word, who continues to sell the item to retailers.If you buy the product, still in its jml packaging, from a retailer, with the guarantee written on the side and there is a problem JMLs response is "Its discontinued, nothing to do with us". It happened to me and I would never ...

Review of JML Beauty Trimmer

Excellent mid-range Philips shaver

Advantages: Close, comfortable shave, easy to clean, good battery life, very durable
Disadvantages: Replacement cutting heads are expensive

The Philips HQ8160 is one of the mid-range electric shavers in the Speed XL series and I have been using it for the last 2 years. Before this I had a much older Philips shaver that had lasted 10 years and the battery finally stopped holding its charge so I decided to upgrade to a newer model. Product design The shaver has 3 cutting heads which move independently to match the contours of your face as you shave. My previous shaver was similar ...
...improvement in comfort whilst shaving. This is a definite advantage of the Speed-XL shaving heads compared with the older ones as they allow up to 50% more shaving surface. There is also a trimmer on the back which is useful for shaping and trimming sideburns but its performance is quite limited so I do not use it very often. The Lithium Ion battery lasts for about an hour (roughly 30 shaves for me) and is very quick to charge too as it takes just ...

Philips TT 2021 Bodygroom For The Perfect Shave

Advantages: Close, comfortable and convinient
Disadvantages: Packaging not great

My husband is very fussy when it comes to shaving and he likes to have his own razor that I don't use. He used to spend a lot of money on purchasing the Gillette Fusion Power 4 pack priced at 7.99GBP. After finding out that I was using his razor he decided to buy the Rechargeable body shave system Phillips TT2021 this is not to be confused with the Phillips TT2020 which is similar, but not the one I am reviewing. So my husband decided to buy this ...
...I cannot use electric razor's like this they make me come out in a rash and do not work on my skin. I asked my husband to review this razor and to give me his opinions of how effective the razor is. The following is the review that I have rewritten in my own words for the purposes of Ciao. This razor is exclusively for men with an ergonomic design that is completely waterproof. Seeing as my husband works out a lot in the gym he can take this with ...

Remington's Diamond of a Beard Trimmer

Advantages: Great performance and features. Easy to use.
Disadvantages: None to speak of.

INTRODUCTION I went through a phase of sporting a goatee, but was finding it increasingly difficult to keep it tidy and well maintained. The problem with normal, bog standard, manual razors is that it’s very easy to accidentally cut into your beard, forcing you to adjust the other side to keep it symmetrical. If you make enough mistakes, your goatee starts shrinking and frankly, looking ridiculous. Much to my wife and daughter’s despair, I ...
...by investing in a proper beard trimmer. With Nectar points to burn, Argos was the obvious destination, and I ended up in investing in Remington’s MB 320C – for no other reason than it sounded fancy and it looked good. IN THE BOX The trimmer comes in a zip up travel pouch with plenty of room to store the unit and its various accoutrements. It’s a classy little number, nicely finished in matt silver and black plastic. The trimmer can be operated ...

Review of Remington MB 320 C Performance

Braun Xpressive Epilator - I love this product!

Advantages: Easy to hold, has a light to show up hairs, re-chargeable.
Disadvantages: None that I can think of.

I love my Braun Expressive Epilator. For years I have wanted to try an epilator for removing the hairs on my legs, but have been put off by stories of pain and the fact that most have looked liked instruments of torture (ok ok, so I exagerate, but you get the idea of my wimpish attitude). I was a firm "shaving will do" type of gal. It's amazing how attitudes can change once you have become a mother. You have a sort of "I've given birth to 4 children, ...
...one day, I saw these Braun Xpressive Epilators on offer and decided to give one a go - the new big brave girl that I am... Actually, I was amazed, surprised, and cross that I didn't buy one years ago. The pain is well - it isn't really a pain, more a slight tingly sharp discomfort, but it soon passes. Some areas on my legs are more sensitive to the feeling than others, I find the area around my ankles seems to more susceptible to such a feeling and ...
