This golden 4 1/2 inch shaver has a pleasant heft when loaded with its C battery and a reassuring buzz when turned on. More a finishing tool than a hair remover, the instructions say that it should be used on dry, oil-free skin, preferably powdered.
A quick test spin on the back of the AVN Test hand showed that the Midas Touch 8000 removed the fine hair in the center quickly, easily, and painlessly, but the longer coarser hair near the edge remained intact. (The hair on the palm of the AVN Test Hand gets the Gillette treatment daily, so it was unavailable for testing.)
Comes with cleaning brush and complete instructions for use and care.
