Ped Egg Pedicure Foot File

I would give it five stars but it takes a lot of time to do, plus the blade was beginning to weaken the first time I used it. But it does work well -- my feet are now smooth and silky and they used to be in horrendous shape. I definitely recommend this product.

The Ped Egg is a great skin grater! Removes the rough and tough dry skin from the heel of your foot with ease and allows the skin to renew. Works as advertised.

This product sort of does what it advertises, but I wasn't satisfied. I used it a couple times and it did shave off dead skin. However, the skin went all over the floor and not just into the egg so I had to clean up a mess. Then, I felt like later on it left my feet looking bad and not as nice as they should. So the next morning I used my cheap $2.99 pumice stone from the store and fixed what the pedegg did to my feet. I have been using my pumice stone ever since and been very satisfied. The pedegg went in the garbage.

I had been thinking about getting the PediEgg Professional for some time and received one yesterday. First of all, I would recommend that you use this only on moisture-free skin to be effective. The included instructions are very easy to understand and the product is very easy to use if you have full use of your hand because you need to wrap your fingers around the hard plastic and move the tool back and forth on the dry skin. For me, the only difficulty is holding the egg under my foot so the exfoliated skin can be collected in the compartment, as my natural tendency is to place one leg over the other with the foot facing up and use the egg on top of that foot. In that case, the skin will fall out and onto the ground. If you have a willing party assist you by using the egg underneath your foot, I imagine it would be fantastic and you'd have no skin falling out of the compartment. My heels had become very calloused, so I didn't expect too much on the first attempt, but I was very impressed with the results. The emery pad has an adhesive backing, so it's attached to the flat bottom of the egg, the secondary part that protects the blades. This is a bonus in my opinion because it keeps all I need in one handy device, but I doubt that I'd spend the money for replacement pads and likely will purchase a separate device that would be longer lasting. It definitely polished the skin well. Follow up your treatment with a wonderful foot cream like one by Barielle or simply apply Aquaphor or Vaseline and wear light cotton socks to bed for the final step in softening your dry feet. Although I'm impressed with the PediEgg, I've deducted one star because the light plastic of the egg doesn't seem to be strong enough to last for years. When this one goes, I will get another updated model because it does really work on those nasty dry heels.

This product is simply wonderful. My feet were not that bad, but, after only a couple of minutes, my feet look wonderful and are incredibly soft. Yes, as others have said, there is somewhat of a challenge to collect all of the "shavings"--the dry skin that comes off, but I just used it over a small trashcan in my bathroom. It's much easier and safer to use than a blade, and you don't have to get into the shower or get your feet wet to use it (in fact, you shouldn't). I'm not one to buy into the t.v. hype of products like these, but I am sold with this one.
