Quality Solution To A Common Problem
The bakBlade (bb) is well made and functional. It provides the best solution for back hair that I have ever found. I have tried about 12 other solutions, including electric clippers in a special holder, standard razors with extended handles, holders for regular razors, single flat blade extra wide razors with telescoping handles, creams, and many other types of solutions. The bb is the first I have used that actually removes the hair as one would expect, and does so with little effort.I did not give it five stars for two reasons. Firstly, the blade gets dull too quickly. I shave my face every other day, mostly because I'm rushed every morning, not because I don't need to shave. But my razors last weeks and weeks if properly cleaned (I use the five blade model on my face). The bb seems to get dulled after only 7 or 8 uses, which is how many times I have used it. Considering the cost of the blades, they need to last longer or cost less.Secondly, though the bb does not require much pressure to get the job done, the handle needs to be more rigid. Yes, many others will tell you to let the blade do the work, and it does do the work. But with a more rigid handle the bb would be easier to control and more accurate.The bb can be used wet or dry, though I prefer dry. The first time I used it I was pretty sure it was not working, but then I turned and saw a pile of hair on the floor. I was happy to see it was working, but sad and shocked I was a lot more hairy than I thought.One tip. Make that two tips. When you shave your upper back, train yourself to use the opposite arm to shave each half of your back, the right arm for the left side of your back and vice versa. This because if you try to shave the same side, which is what you will want to do by instinct, those flexing muscles will be hard to navigate. If you do opposite sides, you can keep your back flat and assist the blade.The second tip is to shave your lower back, from the mid back and down, from the side. The blade stays a lot more flat when hitting the mid and lower back from the side than it does by attempting to reach all the way down. Actually, I run the blade both ways, but more hair was removed when approached from the side.Maybe it's my body type, but that is what works for me. I recommend the razor and buying a handful of extra blades at the same time.I actually prefer the No No type device, which my girlfriend uses with great success, but it is expensive and I'm not sure I want my hair permanently removed. It's something I might need as an old man, sitting in my cold, barren room, to keep me warm. Actually, there is new technology allowing one's body hair to be transplanted to one's head - if I ever go bald, you never know...

So fast
I wasn’t planning on writing a review but this thing serious impressed me. I had a bodybroom electric before than sorta works but this is 1000 times faster, easier, and pain free.

Blades of Overpriced Glory
Ok, here's the deal, I like the product. It's a good idea. I bought the mangroomer a few years back and it jacked up back worse than if I rolled around in broken glass for a half hour. Then I see this bakblade come along and decide to give it a shot. I like the idea that it uses razors, and it's not mechanized by any means so no hairs are being savagely ripped out. The first time I used it, I missed a few spots (takes a few times to get used to), but for the most part it worked as advertised. The problem I have with it is that it's cheap. It feels cheap, it looks cheap, and you can't help but think, "How did this thing cost me $35 again? It's a flimsy piece of plastic with three blades on it..." I can't answer that question for you. The thing must've cost $1 to make tops (sanz the razors). I just wish it either A.) looked like a $35 back razor (I don't know, thicker plastic, add some fashionable gripes, racing stripes, better blades/replacement system, etc), or B.) that it was appropriately priced at $10-$15 where it should be for the quality you are getting.Other things to mention, they say you should change the blade every 7-8 shaves, I haven't reached that many shaves yet, I'm at about 5 shaves in and I think the blades are still ok so far. I also cut myself once or twice so just be careful and go slow (I do not recommend if you have lot of raised moles, skin tags, pimples, because it will cut them off...unless you want them cut off then by all means hack away)...I'm also noticing quite a few ingrown hairs coming back which are quite itchy and uncomfortable, as all my fellow Chewbaccas can attest to.So other than it looking and feeling cheap and paying $35 for it, the bakblades do what they say they do, shave your back, just go slow, and be careful because it will cut you... I'd still rather prefer someone shave my back with an electric razor any day of the week, but I, like most of us Yetis out there, do not have that luxury and must try to shave our backs ourselves....If only it were the 70's again when chest/back hair were cool...
