Who this is for
Buyers who need help reaching the back and still want a dedicated body foil and three practical comb lengths.
Who should avoid it
Choose the BG7470/15 if fine length adjustment, dual-ended speed and a larger review base matter more than the back attachment.

In-Depth Review
Quick verdict
The clearest choice when a back attachment is the deciding feature, pairing a foldable reach handle with a body foil, 2, 3 and 5 mm combs, showerproof use and 100-minute runtime.
Who it suits
Buyers who need help reaching the back and still want a dedicated body foil and three practical comb lengths.
The main trade-off
The Amazon review sample is still small. Its limited low-star set includes UAE reports of pulling, repeated passes and one early breakage, so confidence is lower than for the top picks.
