Palson 30085 Venus

Advantages: Slow regrowth
Disadvantages: It hurts until you get used to it!

...couple of days. When the hair does grow back it is much softer and there should be no stubble. You have to have about 0.5mm of hair for the discs to grab on to which isn't too bad. Now you can use the epilator on other areas of your body. I tried my underarms a few times. I did not enjoy the experience! I truly cannot recommend it to you.You get used to it on your legs and it gets less painful the more you do it. But armpits? No thank you! My eyes streamed and I couldn't stop sneezing afterwards, a bit like when you pluck your eyebrows! Talking of eyebrows.... once in a rash moment I tidied them up with the epilator. It says not to, but hey, when was I ever obedient! Oh golly. How I wished I had listened. Don't try it, it is excruciating! So, I stick to using mine for my legs and use a Venus for anywhere else. The results... Read review

...Remington's Smooth and Shape Body Kit My gran got this for my Christmas present. In the past, I'm used manual razors like Venus by Gillette or nicked my dad's razors to get a quick fix but not anymore so I thought. She bought at Index, which has now gone out of business but have been reassured by Remington that I still have a guarantee with them instead of Index. She paid 24.99 for it. You can find this product at Argos, John Lewis, http://www.greatessentials.co.uk/ between £24.99-£27.99. Remington's smooth and Shape Body Kit consists of a shaver, charger for cordless use, 4 different attachments, travel pouch, cleaning brush and a small bottle of oil. In the box, there's also a small manual on how to use and how to care of your shaver. The shaver is slick and silver. It has a purple on/off button and the word Remington... Read review

Advantages: Price, Ease of use
Disadvantages: No nut dispenser

...if you don’t use an oven glove. Yes even the little handle that lifts the pan out of the machine gets hot. Be warned. After applying cold water to a burnt appendage for approximately 10 minutes we were free to look at our masterpiece. A cooling rack was found and the pan turned upside down. Now on other loaves that I have seen that came from a bread machine, I have found there to be a rather large hole at the bottom where the kneader fits in, Not so with the Kenwood BM200. The kneader slides out of the bread leaving a small slit, not a crater the size of Venus like other machines. In all the bread had risen well, it was crusty enough on the outside, yet light and fluffy on the inside, it sliced well (although I think that’s a measure of slicing talent rather than bread making ability) and tasted delicious. So that’s my experience... Read review
