Our verdict

A cordless epilator with a pivoting head for women who want to reach knees and underarms without salon waxing. Bath and shower use is promoted, yet the spec sheet calls it not water resistant, which is worth confirming with Braun.

Overview

Bath time or a warm shower is where Braun suggests using this epilator, whose wide pivoting head moves to follow knees, underarms and other contours. MicroGrip tweezers grab hair too short for wax, and a shaver head and trimmer comb come along for areas you prefer to shave or trim.

Contour following is its strength: the head pivots into knees and underarms, and the precision handle is shaped for a controlled grip when wet. Its weak point is the water rating, listed as not water resistant despite the wet and dry marketing.

Who it's for

Regular epilators who find bony areas and underarms hard to cover get a head that moves with the body. People who have never tolerated epilation or waxing should try shaving first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Pivoting head follows knees and underarms
  • Catches hair shorter than wax
  • Precision handle grips when wet
  • Cordless with included battery
Cons
  • Water rating conflicts with wet use marketing
  • Runtime and charge time not listed
  • No massage roller cap in the box

Performance notes

Coverage depends on the wide head pivoting to follow contours, which lets the tweezers reach hair on knees and underarms in fewer strokes. The tweezers decide how short a hair it can remove, and warm water in the bath or shower is the Braun suggestion for less pain.
