Safety vigilance is all you need for this great product.
I am a diabetic and my feet are in terrible shape. Dry, cracked and calloused. Before I begin, I would be remiss if I failed to mention that electric devices such as this are typically NOT recommended for diabetics. This is because if you are not super vigilant with caution, you can very easily cause yourself an abrasion. Cuts, abrasions or any type of injuries to a diabetic (especially in the feet or legs) are nightmares to heal and quite serious. So, if you are a diabetic and plan to use this product, you should be absolutely certain that you (or whoever is going to be using it on you) will not be in a hurry, take your time and don't rush. Basically, touch it to a spot once or twice and then FEEL with your finger or hand to make sure that you're not going too deep or causing any type of injury. Do this every time and every spot. If you're like me, you'll eventually want to go a little faster and cover more ground. However, I didn't because I know from past experiences what this can cause.<br /><br />With all that being said, I have used my Emjoi Micro-Pedi Callus Remover twice so far and I love it. I've used battery operated devices in the past and they just wasn't powerful enough. My rough, hard skin would stop the rotating action of the device. That is the safer way, of course but I could never really get anything accomplished. That is why I decided to go to an electric callus remover. Rough, hard skin is NOT going to stop the rotating action of this callus remover. That means it will eat right through the hard, callused skin and start into the fresh, alive skin and that will HURT. And, if you are a diabetic, it will cause you an abrasion that could take forever to heal. So, be vigilant!<br /><br />Provided my Emjoi continues to work well and last a decent amount of time (which time will tell), I am glad I bought this product and would definitely purchase it again.
