I’m familiar with the ped egg and have checked it out. As some of the other people commented, it’s really a “cheese grater” and can cut into your skin (especially bad if you’re diabetic/have circulatory problems). Also, you have to finish with a finer instrument. And because of the plastic component, cannot be properly sterilized.

I’d like to mention our product, the Angelfeet pedicure file (angelfeetfile.com), which many professionals believe to be the best one on the market. It doesn’t cut into the skin but can still be used very aggressively, doesn’t require a finishing instrument, and can be easily sterilized because it is made out of a single piece of surgical grade stainless steel. No one need be afraid of this file, and it does a fantastic job. And it lasts and lasts.

I love Love LOVE my Ped Egg so I echo your thoughts to a tee. I have majorly dry cracky feet and no other “utensils” have managed to make a difference in my feet. Even the microplanes and “graters” have had so little effect or were so annoying or cumbersome to use that I would stop.

My Ped Egg has been so fun to use, absolutely NO pain at all in fact it tickles. This is the first time in my life that I have had feet I am not embarrassed by or that hurt from the cracks and would catch on carpeting or socks. They are touchably soft which is really cool! Only sad thing.. I didn’t find out about this before summer so I could have felt more comfortable in sandals

I just bought the PedEgg at CVS for 10.00. I do have yucky “summer feet”, and I have been using an in the shower pedicure cream that was not working so well. 5-10 minutes with the PedEgg and my problem was solved!! This product is effective, fast, and does not hurt at all! The directions are so simple, and if followed properly, there will be no pain whatsoever! I highly reccommend the PedEgg!!

I cannot get into the PedEgg — the thing scares me. I use an Artemis Woman Heel Smoother. I know it’s battery operated and uses up batteries, but its really safe. It recognizes when it’s time to stop so I don’t go too far and peel off good skin.

i had such hard cracked skin on my heals that would of taken me days with a normal file to get off; this pedegg is the ticket; it smoothed out my feet in no time but you also have to use the fine file once you have got all the dead skin off kudos to who came up with this idea; it definitely is worth $10 and i tell lots of people about this little gem

I have a Microplane foot file that collects the shavings. I bought it at Bed, Bath and Beyond. BBB also carries the PedEgg, at least where I live. In comparing the two, the filing surface appears to be exactly alike. And NO, it doesn’t hurt one bit. You definitely have to smooth the area with a finer file to get good results.

That was supposed to say, “I wouldN’T lie about pain.”

Anon #3 – Believe me, I would lie about pain. I’m very sensitive; I cry getting a shot.

That’s why I had the boyfriend try it first. I figured that even if it was painful, his calloused Fred Flintstone feet would never feel it. But even as he got near the end, he could still barely feel it. That’s the only reason I used it myself.

Anon #1 – Aww, that stinks. I hope they either refund your money or get you one soon. Maybe try another reseller or see if your local WalMart/KMart carries them in their “As Seen On TV” section.

Anon #2 – I’ve never tried a microplane but from the pictures I’ve seen, they look similar.
