A handheld appliance

A handheld appliance having a body 210 and an attachment 20. The body comprises a first end and a second end, and has an attachment mechanism adjacent the second end. The body comprises a wall having an outer surface and an inner surface. At the second end the wall has a chamfer 120b extending around the inner surface, and the inner surface also has a first slot (144, fig.10) and a second slot (146, fig.10). The attachment preferably has a collar 22 adjacent the first end, and the collar comprises a further chamfer 120a. The two chamfered faces 120a, 120b engage each other to reduce wobble when the body and the attachment are joined together. The attachment preferably comprises a first protrusion (140, fig 10) and a second protrusion (142, fig.10). The second protrusion may cooperate with the second slot but not the first slot. This means the attachment has to be attached in the correct orientation.
