After looking at several types with wildly different prices, I thought I'd take a chance on this epilator. I tend to go by the reviews that others have given about any product that I buy, but there were no reviews on this. What to do? For the price, this seemed to be what I wanted. It was going to do what I wanted (epilating) plus it would remove calluses and be a shaver as well. I liked that it also had a light on it so I could see the hairs better. I liked that it was rechargeable (you can use it cordless, or if charge is low you can use it while plugged in). I took a chance on ordering this knowing full well that it could be a bust, but I'm so glad I did. It seems very well made, feels good while using and does a nice job. Time will tell how durable it is. I've only had it for a couple of weeks. Comparing it price wise to other products like this, it's a bargain.
