Recommend an epilator

I have used a Phillips satinelle for 10 years or so now but it's starting to give up the ghost, cutting out and not getting some of the shorter hairs. I use it for everything; arms, legs, bikini line and I tend to run it over my legs every couple of days to keep on top of things.

I'm off in holiday in a couple if weeks so am going to buy a new one to take with me any recommendations please. I would like one with a light and that can do short hairs.

I have the silk epil 7681. I love it. ive had it a couple of years but it's still very current on the market.

I gets the tiny stubble and I wizz over my legs most nights when the kids are in the bath! I'm loving having hair free legs and just being able to pop a dress on with no planning!

I use the trimmer for my lady garden to keep it short then epilate the edges. I even use the second trimmer for my arse!

I epilate my underarms most nights in the shower. its wet and dry too so good in the bath if your having some time out to pamper.

it charges up really quickly then lasts ages. I did my legs while I was sat in the garden with the kids after tea the other night! Classy bird me.

I cant rate it high enough if im honest. I rave about it so much my mum has one too and my colleague and we all love it.

its also painless compared to my old one.

Thanks, I bought the Braun 7921 Spa in the end and I've got to say I'm really, really impressed with it. I thought my little Phillips was good but this is amazing. I can use it wet and dry if I want, it's very quiet compared to the Phillips, I like the light and it catches really short hairs and absolutely no pain. It's also got the body brush attachment which I haven't used yet. I'm really, really pleased with it. When I think back to first Silkepil with that twisty thing it had and how much it hurt and caused ingrowing hairs to this new one, it's amazing.
