Have been happy with this product for two years, but plastic gears wear out and you can't find replacement parts anywhere which bothers me more with the waste than the expense of replacing the entire thing over a tiny little gear. Also, ice part is pretty useless as it does reduce pores and make it more painful.

This review is from: Philips Norelco HP6492 Epilator Lady Shaver 110/220v (Misc.)

I don't remember precisely why I selected this model in the first place. Some reviews I suppose. I found that it works quite well. Really better than I expected. Now it seems to be unavailable, so I bought the Panasonic 3 in 1 which is totally useless by comparison.
I'll concede that these things are not totally durable for mens hair. I've found that they last approximately 6 months with substantial/heavy use about twice a week. Its better not to let too much growth come back or the job becomes too time-consuming. There are some plastic gears, which I assume are meant to fail if one gets the thing jammed on some pinched skin. However, then its broken and you are SOL.
I'm a cyclist and have been using it as an alternative to waxing or shaving my legs. It works well. It doesn't get the smallest hairs, but makes shaving unnecessary or extremely easy as a secondary process.

I've had several other epilators and this one works the best. I'ts faster and less painful than the others. Sorry I don't remember what models they were but they weren't Norelco. I find that I don't need to use the ice attachment as I think it makes the pores close tighter and then the hair doesn't want to come out as easily or breaks. All in all I'm very pleased with it.
