Love it!
on October 18, 2026
Posted by: AF brat
Have used this product for many years and absolutely love the convenience of item being wireless plus the length of charge time. There is no stubble or coarse regrowth. The floating head makes epilating the knees more comfortable. Highly recommend this product for length of use time and reliability of product. Much prefer Braun products to others on market.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just doesn’t last
on October 3, 2026
Posted by: MichelleJourney
This is my 3rd in two years of the Epil 9. I use it about every 4 weeks and clean it every time. After about 6 months it starts to sound like it’s grinding and by the next use it jams up and doesn’t work at all. Unfortunately when it IS working it is the better proxy out there but for the price it needs to last longer. I’m so disappointed.

Was great until it died
on September 9, 2026

I bought this epilator 9 and loved it until it died. It charges to full battery and then when I use it on low setting, it completely dies within 2-3 minutes. Buying this whole kit and not able to use any of it is really disappointing!!

very convenient
on June 12, 2026
Posted by: LHGilley
I bought this 2 years ago and am very pleased. The cordless feature is so convenient and it recharges quickly. I found it too painful to use on my arms but my legs were the primary target and it works painlessly on those. I do wish it exfoliated better as my hairs are no was fine they often get trapped under the top layer of skin and curl into dark spots. I considered buying the IPL which sounds wonderful I have many moles and bumps and my hair is greying and I can't afford to spend that kind of money on something I can't use completely.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Test Out Everything When You Open The Package
on May 5, 2026
Posted by: CJH from VA
I purchased in November before I was heading out of the country for 4 months. Unfortunately I didn't fully test it and sadly my device was defective. It would not charge, and I was left without a working device the entire time I was away. When I returned I placed a claim and it was repaired by replacing the PC Board and Battery. I am glad it is working but I feel cheated as I was without a working device for a long time and basically I paid full price for a refurbished device.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not worth the high price
on April 26, 2026
Posted by: Carol
I do not recommend this product. My husband gave it to me as a thoughtful Christmas gift thinking it would give me a smooth shave on my legs and a bit of pampering in the shower (message and exfoliation brush). For me, the shaver scratched my lens and both the brush and message heads would fall off in the shower. After trying it many times, I cleaned it and then gave it to a donation center, hoping the next person would enjoy using it more than I did.
