Has anyone got one? Do you recommend it? Ive seen people say the corded one is better than cordless but dont think the latest model comes with a corded version, does it matter? Thank you

I have one - it almost sounded too good to be true but I decided to invest anyway. Unfortunately I was right and should’ve trusted my gut…!

They work really well for some people but personally I just didn’t get along with it. I have very thick, dark body hair which means that the light pulses would produce a lot of heat and cause pain. It was bearable (yet very time consuming) on my legs but bikini line & armpits were an absolute no. I gave up and have decided to stick to waxing

I have a braun version and its amazed me, did as instructions said and a year on i barely have to shave anywhere anymore, love it. I do a top up every 3 or 4 months.

I've been very sporadic with mine but it has made a difference even so.

I've got one and it does work, I'm pleased with the results but it is time consuming and boring
