I was going to post this as a great deal ....... a Mens Shaver for £16.99 - sounds good!?
This is now a warning - the shaver is Silvercrest Model SRR 03 A2 .... available from yesterday in LIDL stores.
I bought one last night, plugged it into the mains to charge, there was a bright white flash from the shaver and a loud bang.
I was holding it at the time and dropped it onto the bed. I unplugged the plug from the mains. The 3 Amp fuse had not blown which I find odd.
Test yours now if you have bought one - mine cannot be the only faulty one out there. It could hurt someone if used in the damp environment of a bathroom!
