Review (5/5): Very easy to get a great manicure at home.
I was invited to review a product of my choice, at no cost. I was not asked to give a positive review, and if it wasn't good I wouldn't say it was. That being said, I really like it a lot. Of the choices I was given, I chose this nail drill because I have been having problems with my nails. The biggest problem I have is that when I had acrylic nails I would get a fill for $20. After I removed the acrylic nails I was charged $18 for a regular manicure and it seemed they did a sloppy job. I thought they were mad at me taking off the nails during a remodel my husband and I were doing ourselves. So I started doing my nails myself. I also has problems with filing my nails myself and could never get the nails filed without splitting a few days later. I didn't enjoy the task but sure the hell wasn't going to pay anyone $18 to do it. With this RECHARBABLE unit I evenly filed my nails, removed the cuticle, then smoothed out the nails in about 15 minutes. I used olive oil as nail cream when I was done. I missed buffing my pinky and discovered that later that day. I had been surprised on how smooth and shiny my nails were when I found the one I missed. Compared to the others it felt rough due to ridges and made me realize how well this worked on the buffing. I tried before to buff them with the square buffer thing but kept hitting the cuticles and it hurt so I stopped trying to get my nails shiny. All I can say is this thing works great and would make a great gift. It comes with extra replacement files but I don't know where to get more if I need more. I am now going on to the toes. This would be great for home bound elderly. I tried to get a mobile pedicure for my Mom at home, but there wasn't one available for elderly with dementia. I did it myself and it took a very long time. Mom didn't like it. Could have done it faster with this nail file. It would have been much easier on her.
