Small, noisy, little caring and somewhat messy.

In addition to temporary method of hair removal such as wax strips or hair removal creams, the market explodes to electric epilators. First of all - epilation hurts. Always and everywhere. And it also changes with the new Philips representative of this young beauty series is not much. Blood, sweat and tears, however, already uses the application ahead only conditionally, a little courage. Fortunately, the device fits comfortably and confidently in the hands of each user, which also expeditions into uncharted border areas and regions can be successfully overcome most. Without AUA and scorched earth does not the story is quickly bearable to follow up and repeated use, however. The background noise is acceptable. Although Philips, much should be mentioned at this point, belongs more to the noisier equipment its specie.

Comfort is already rather non-existent. If necessary, crucial - the unit is wired and supports only dry runs. One major drawback, especially since the wet variant straight women with entry fears but very accommodates. But still - the head is washable, so seems, at least in the broad water not averse. The epilator itself is very small and light, so is suitable for beginners. Also missing additional essays that reduce the area of ​​epilation if necessary. This is where the accessory in 3-in-1 set, in the form of the accompanying precision trimmer and the tweezers. Both products are assigned to the category rather gimmick. At least the battery-powered trimmer (battery included) is acceptable, the cheap tweezers rather worthless. The packaging content is rounded off by a guide with a clear need for improvement (funny, a shortcoming across all producers) and a travel case of the brand "about cases-we-better-the Coat of-silence".

Much worse - despite two predefined trigger speeds "overlooks" the Philips like the one - or other hair, forcing the unnecessary double and triple treatment. And a possibly useful, integrated light to illuminate the affected parts of the body is not built.

Conclusion: Mediocrity is the first step to the demise. And more than an average final score of Philips HP6543 can not recorded on the credit side, unfortunately. However, the device is more likely attributable to the lower price segment, which is why the basic price / performance ratio does not seem unreasonable.
