I have been using Philips epilator which I bought in Europe for 10 years. It just died then I was looking for replacement. I did not know Norelco is a part of Philips, so it took time to find this one. This is almost same with the one I had. Does not need any more fancy technology, this is just enough for the purpose. From the experience of more than 10 years, this is the best method to keep smooth legs if you cannot afford laser hair removal all over your body. However, Using this machine is NOT painless procedure for first couple of rounds. If you have just kept shaving your legs, the more expensive models have some feature to reduce pain. If you do waxing, you must have used to pain. This model is good enough.

The epilator did what I bought it for. It removed hair, and is painless (I am a long time epilator user, though). It is so painless, I used to do only below knees but ventured to do thighs and arms, and it worked fine. Even the tough ones came off after a few passes. My first epilator was Epilady, which was fine. It died after 3-4 years, and I bought Emjoi's ForeverFree spending over $100, but it didn't work at all. I was so discouraged and didn't want to waste any more money, so fixed my old Epilady myself and used it for another 10 years or so. It finally got to the point that it is not effective in removing hair, so I bought this one. This is worth the money spent. The only thing, which is very minor, is that the motor seems to be a bit too loud, and the head comes off too easily. I can't remember what I did to make the head come off when I didn't mean it to, but it didn't come off while removing hair, so I think it's ok.

The epilator works fine and the price says it all. I recommend it for people with not a lot of hair, because it doesn't get all of the hair the first time so you need to repeat again...That's why I gave it four stars not five...Other than that it works okay, I don't have to shave every three days anymore.
