BAKBLADE 2.0 PLUS - Back Hair Removal and Body Shaver (DIY), Ergonomic Handle, Shave Wet or Dry (Extra Blades Included)

Great product. Very easy to operate. I think some of the negative reviewers here may have been applying too much pressure, as I didn't have any issues with cuts or scratches. There is no need to apply any pressure at all - just run it lightly over the skin and let the blades do the work. It does say in the instructions that it is designed to work with minimal pressure. I used it dry and showered afterwards. I was a bit concerned that it would be too short - I'm quite tall at 6'7" - but I found it long enough for me. It would probably be a bit cumbersome if it was much longer. I'm not sure how long the blades will last but from what I've seen of other user reviews they last quite a while, so hopefully that will turn out to be accurate. I'm very impressed with the Bakblade 2.0 plus and would certainly recommend it if you're looking for a DIY back hair removal solution. It comes with a spare set of blades, a useful suction cup storage hanger and a cleaning brush, and also folds in half so it will be easy to pack for travelling. It also has the unexpected bonus of being a very effective back scratcher! ** TWO MONTH UPDATE ** I felt I should update my review now I've lived with the BakBlade 2.0 plus for a while. I am deducting 2 stars from my original rating to take account of the fact that the blades do not last very long. They are good for one or two shaves but after that they no longer provide a close shave and need replacing. I have used the shaver wet and dry. I will say that removing the blades after each use and cleaning them with the brush provided does seem help, and also I think the life of the blades may depend on the thickness of your back hair. The hair on my lower back is fairly light, so the blades seem to be able to deal with it for multiple shaves, but the hairs on my upper back are very thick and the blades can't cope with it after one shave. Also, I have still not had any issues with cuts and scratches, so I definitely think it's a technique issue if you're experiencing that. I have just ordered 12 replacement blades at a cost of £40 and will see how long they last. It may just be an issue with the blades that came with the shaver.

So going to gym training...not particularly bodybuilding but anyway....if you train being waxed or shaved chest, back and arms enhances you, well that's the limit I will go to. So to get waxed you will probably pay absolute minimum £30 for that and probably triple that depending where you go. So does Bakblade do the job? Well I did research on youtube as I think a lot of us do, And people were raving about it. How quick and effortless smooth etc. My conclusion have to using it wet with some dove soap and water (same as what I shave with) is that it does work effortlessly, takes hair off easily and safely in no time at all. I have moles not really protruding but it didn't cut them did see bit of scrape/ blade rash nothing to write home about. Obviously doing your front (Careful round nips of course) the blade holder can come of and you can use it that way but I just left it on the stick. So final conclusion...I thought the price around £50 seemed a bit steep when purchasing it as looking and looking at it you would probably guess it would be about £25 -£35 and the quality looks good/ok . You get 2 blades already installed and 2 spare. Apparently on YouTube they last ages. So for the price of getting waxed perhaps once and the ease of use compared to any other electric bodyshave or regular small wet blade's..yes it's worth it I expect it and the spare blade's to last quite some time. But would you really need the 3 blade device. The 2 blade's work excellent.... perhaps if you were mega hairy even then I'm not sure you'd need three.

Good product. A self moisturiser applicator would be good to go with it. Skin irritated afterwards.

Great! Does the job with a minimum of fuss. The only thing better would be someone to do it for you!

It's way easier than relying on hair removal cream, and a lot quicker too. I've had one of these in the past with 3 blades and I think this one (2 blades) doesn't work quire as well as the last one. I still use it though. It's good enough for what I need but it does sometimes looks like I've been dragged through a thorn bush because of the scratches.

Firstly, let me state that I am a hairy guy - and while I trim my chest and body to keep it under control, I don’t like the back hair at all. I find it unsightly, but difficult to manage effectively. I’ve had various electric trimmers, and found the Mangroomer to be the best of those - I’ve had 2. I also tried waxing - very expensive, time consuming and painful - and it doesn’t last I was always a little sceptical of the wet/dry blade shavers, as I thought they would be painful/unconfortable. How wrong I was. I cannot praise this BakBlade enough. I’ve had it for a few weeks now, and it has changed my world 🤣. Firstly, it is easy to use - very ergonomic, and easy to get to all the right places. Secondly, and most importantly - the result it gives is the best I have ever had. ..even compared to when my partner has shaved my back using the electric trimmers. This is by far the closest shave, and lasts me about 10 days before I need to do it again. Thirdly and finally, the kit you get is just excellent - 2 replacement blades and a nifty little sucker gadget that allows you to hang and store the BakBlade in the shower nice and neatly. For anyone who has a hairy back, take my word for it - get one of these. You won’t regret it.

Great device. Easy to use and reaches all round my back. It's pretty big in size but can be folded and stored. Overall everything I was looking to buy has been delivered.

I am surprised by how effective this bakblade is. It is almost perfect but lacks a few essential things which I will address bellow. First of all I am very hairy and have hair on my entire back so being able to shave myself smooth is in it self surprising. The handle is a tad bit short. I can't reach my spine effectively without bending in ways I did not know were possible. It should have been 6-10 cm longer. Additionally, the handle only locks in at its furthest position sometimes I need to angle the handle differently but since it doesn't lock in the handle opens easily up when only opened half way and I start shaving. They should revise the lock in mechanism to lock the handle in multiple angles. Moreover, I feel like the head should be able to swivel some degrees back and forth to follow the contours of my back. I sometimes end up only using one of the three blades since the angle at which is rest on my back is not perfect. This defeats the aspect of having three blades on there at the first place. Finally, my biggest gripe. It seems as if the replacement blades are not the same as the original blades and don't last as long. With the price they ask for the replacement blades and their shady quality it may just be easier to pay for back waxing.... 23Gbp and 6-7 gbp for delivery of what essentially is two sets of blades that last UP TO 2 shaves each and a high risk of injuring yourself? A maximum of 4 back shaves for a price of 29-30 GBP? Expensive if you ask me.
