Advantages: Different heads for shaving different areas, compact, 40 mins of shaving from 2xAA batteries Disadvantages: Shave not as close as it could be, flimsy travel pouch, no safety switch
...deliberating, I opted for the Philips Ladyshave Contour. It claims to be a multi-functioning shaver - 2 different foils, a bikini line trimmer and you can use it wet or dry! Oh and it comes with 2x AA batteries so you can literally get shaving right away. RESULT! Your standard shaver comes with a silver foil, you get a gold foil, which is supposed to be good for shaving sensitive areas like bikini line and underarms, you get your plastic bikini trimmer ... ...you can hang the shaver up in the shower (does anyone actually do this?!), you get a little brush to clean out the shaver and you get a satiny pouch to store everything in.
So onto how it works: I tried the silver foil, which seems to have slightly larger holes in but I found it ripped the skin on my legs off. However, the gold foil didn't so I'm just sticking to that now. The bikini trimmer bit fits over the main shaver foil and trims to just one ...

Advantages: Quick and easy to use Disadvantages: not that great
I there I got this as a gift about a year ago I thought oh never had one of these great will be go for going on hols and a shave when I have forgotten to so so type of thing.
This shaver can be used wet or dry which is ok but doesn't mean you take into the shower just means you can use on wet skin or dry.
Has two shave settings normal setting for a gentle shave a upper position for a quick and more effective shave.
These setting can be selected ... ...more or less an all over body shaver you can use it for legs, underarms and bikini line for the hols. This shaver has a loop so you can hang it in the bathroom to keep it handy.
has a great styled handle for a good grip means when your hands wet you wont drop it on your foot. And always a bonus batteries come included with the pack is only run on batteries no main supply and cant be charged up. I found that I still like to stick to my manual shaver ...

Advantages: Quick and easy to use Disadvantages: Shaving is as close and doesnt last as long
This product is very quick and easy to use on legs, but unfortunately it does not shave quite as closely as it makes out. It is great if you are in a rush to go out and need to shave quickly, but maybe not the best it you need the shaving to last for longer! I have had no problems at all when using it to shave my legs but it is quite tricky to use on the bikini area and you have to be careful not to catch the skin! I would recommend this product ...
