To be honest I was skeptical about its effectiveness when I saw the price. I must say that I was particularly disappointed by his predecessor, yet more expensive and recognized brand (never effective after 2 years of use with the need to turn to other alternatives). I decided ... and after several uses, I can say that this product is particularly convincing. I used it on my legs and he did his job perfectly. No need to iron several times, impeccable shave, no irritation. It works with batteries, which is very convenient (and instead recommended, if one wants to use it in the shower!). It is surprisingly very light (which is a nice touch) and very handy (important when one is pressed). In short, this razor is perfect, an excellent quality / price ratio, even beyond! In conclusion, the price is not effective! ... At least in some cases.
