Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Panasonic ES-EY90-A511 is fifth in this guide at £199.99. It is the widest-headed machine described here: a 90° flexible head, double discs with 60 tweezers, three speeds (soft, normal, power) and an operating time the title puts at up to 30 minutes. Amazon lists it at 4.4 stars from 174 ratings and ranks it 27th in Epilators & Accessories. At £199.99 it costs £25.04 more than the cheapest 9-series Braun on this list.
Two numbers in the same listing do not agree with each other. The product bullets promise "a full 50-minute charge", while the Charging Time field says 1 Hour. The water claim moves as well: the Water Resistance Level field says Waterproof, the third bullet says "water-resistant design" and the sixth says "the waterproof design". The star breakdown shown on the page adds up to 100 reviews, against the 174 ratings quoted in the headline. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this model, not from testing we carried out.
