Good buy for the price
Pros:
Lightweight, cordless, easy to use
Cons:
who needs a mesh bag for a bikini trimmer,.. why not a locked box?
The Bottom Line:
I'd recommend this thrifty little trimmer to anyone looking to tame the region below the belt, or even to touch up regular shaving. It's gentle and easy to use.

Author's Review
Recently I decided to replace my old MANLY trimmer/shaver (a mens Norelco) for a more feminine, to the point sort of get up. This little shaver/trimmer was created specifically for women to tidy up their nether regions, and so I decided I should give it a try.
I'd been using the Men's Norelco for this purpose for a while now, and although it has a clipper pop-up gizmo, I've never been terribly good at mastering it (always ending up with an uneven trim with sadly bald patches here and there). The shaver part of that razor is so inefficient, should I choose to tidy up my knees (I know, not really the purpose of the razor, but, who hasn't missed a few spots on their knees while shaving and grabbed for their husband's razor to clean up the job?) it always takes several passes to get ANYTHING, and if it does, often times it'll catch skin. *ouch*
I like the design of this razor for several reasons:
1. It's small and sleek - great to toss in your makeup bag or travel case, or toss in your bathroom drawer.
2. It's cordless! No more tugging on the electrical cord only to cause an unsightly bald spot.
3. It's light weight and easy to hold - much better than my bulky man-razor and much more ergonomic.
4. It does the job, and does it well enough with little difficulty or trouble.
This razor isn't perfect, it does take about 2-3 passes to get an even trim, but, that's better than what I read for the epilady. It also does better than my norelco.
The razor comes with:
- 1 fancy metal mesh carrying and stow case (see through for your humiliation)
- 1 tiny brush to clean it with
- the razor
- user manual
- the clipper attachment (which can be set at any one of five lengths - or removed for regular shaving.)
Cons:
- Nothing beats the closeness of a razor shave in the shower, or a waxing
- It runs on 2 AAA batteries (which might be hard to find in rechargeables and aren't common enough in my house if I run out of juice and need replacements)
- The neato mesh stow bag is still see through so if you happen to leave it out it should be pretty obvious what you have stored away
In Conclusion:
I don't know about you, but, for me, the thought of using scissors down there for a trim is quite frightening. Why not get things under control, trimmed up, and tidy using something created for that very purpose? Come on ladies, it's not taboo, and if you're thinking about trimming, why not consider this little item? If you're shy about it, you can always find a different little tote baggie to store it in. :)
