Ped Egg

missymugwump

Hi

Sorry if this has been asked before
My daughter nearly parted with £10 I believe to buy a ped egg
I told her not to until I had looked around on the net to see if they work

Has anyone here used one ?
What was your experience ?
Are they better than a flat emery board type file ?
Would you recommend one ?

As shes just had a baby I don't want her wasting her money :cool:

I believe they are quite good although I havent used one, I think they are made out to be more popular then they are.

I also saw them being sold in the local market and on the street for £3.00 last week so I am going to buy one myself, for £3.00 I dont mind, but not for ten quid!

I think people just cant afford to splash out ten quid on something like that so they arent selling that well hence the the market, these were proper Ped Eggs by the way I checked not fake knock offs

Never used but was hard sell on American tv when on holiday last year. QVC had a similar item for about £20 last week.

Scholl and various other companies do very similar things only not shaped like an egg, but with a handle. I have Scholl one it is very good.

Thank you

Worried that the cheap ones are chinese copies I read a review that said they were inferior
Not sure which shop had it at £9.99 !

I was hoping someone who had used one may have first hand experience

I have one and it is brilliant. Does what it says on the box. JML have now brought one out with a handle and also a separate one for men's feet.

From listening to other people they usually only last a year. I own a Microplane and buffer which is what the cheaper ones are based on. Got it as a TSV from QVC and wouldn't be without it. Reading beauty boards it will last years so pays for itself, someone wrote they had their's for 6 years of course they clean it and good as new.

Oh interesting of to research microplanes now :T

I've got a Microplane, it cost me about £25. I can't see why the Ped Egg would be inferior, looks more or less the same to me.

I was bought a Ped Egg as a gift. Nothing came off my feet....not a flake and i was sooooooooooooooooo looking forward to seeing all the gubbins that came off. I know that sounds disgusting but you know what i mean.
