I own an Epicare and R.E.M. and thought I'd try this one because it is so much cheaper in price. It works great! It's a bit shorter than the R.E.M. and because of that it handles better for me. I love this product. I use it in the restrooms in between my classes when I am short of time. I have sensitive skin, but the reddness disappears after about 5 minutes. It does hurt at first, but then it is so much better than tweezing one hair at a time, or spending the time messing with waxing.

Pros:
It arrived fast and as described.
The black velvet cloth case was included so I'm not sure why some have commented it didn't come with.
This product is super affordable and works just as good as the pricier competitors.
I found it super easy to use. If uncertain there are videos online you can search.
Safe to use as often as you want.
Removes hair at the root so hair takes longer to grow back.

Cons:
Ouch factor:
-I'm used to the way threading feels and this was still pretty painful the first couple of times. That is probably because it is so thorough.
You cannot use it on eyebrows.
-This product is made to take out large sections of hair not small areas so you cannot do the detailing required for brows.
Can be time consuming
-I thread my whole face and the first time it took me about 40 min to get as hair free as I wanted. Now I just do touch ups but it is not the fastest method out there

It did everything I'd hoped. Hair removal at the root that is easy and sanitary. I recommend cleaning tool with alcohol before and after. the only reason I rate it less than 5 stars is because it can be so time consuming.

I thought, what do I have to lose since I do use a threading device on a regular basis. I found the spaces on the *spring* to be too far apart, unlike the more expensive ones. To the naked eye, they apear to be the same, except a little shorter in length, but it just doesn't do the same quality of job of the Epicare product. I have purchased all makes out there and this didn't extract any hair, but a few. YES, I know how to use them, unfortunately. It also didn't arrive in it's *free* black velvet pouch.
