 Good Product; only a couple of drawbacks... March 1, 2008

I have really bad heels and have since I was in my 30's...my skin peels off as well. Instead of using scissors, I decided to try this little guy to see what would happen. (I found mine at RiteAid, which is cheaper than ordering from TV). The blades work best on raised callous areas around the ball of the foot and edges of heels. I had to "scrub" back and forth pretty hard on my heels--and if you have any peeling skin, be careful because you can nick yourself. My heels were a bit tender after, and it did take 2-3 times to get them to where I wanted them to be. I highly suggest using a LOT of cream after doing this. The egg itself is a nice design to hold but the shavings went all over. I couldn't get the bottom off easily to "dispose" of the trapped shavings, so I just turned it upside down over the garbage.
 WORKS FOR ME!!! BRING TO LIFE DRY CRACKED HEELS!!!! December 20, 2007

This thing WORKS!!! I just gave my mom a little pedicure and her heels were harder than mine. I think this is better than using the blade that the salon use to remove calluses and it is gentle. Don't have to worry cutting too deep. This is people for really dry and cracked feet. soft heels need not buy! good for giving grandma a special treat if you know what I mean!! No it wont make foot look younger but it will feel younger seriously! I can't be any more emphatic! I wish I brought two! One recommendation of when to use this, wash your feet the night before and when your is bone dry, then use the ped egg. I recommend using the emmory pads that stick to the egg because it gives more of a handle when you are manually smoothing your heels rather than using those flimsy thin emmory boards. also, to get the crevices, (for the older folks) you gotta pull on the skin a bit. Works great on callouses my mom had one at the ball of her foot and after 1 min or two depending on how thick it is, and it disappears. another tip: apply some pressure but not too much especially on the callouses. also put a towel on the floor it collects the dead skin but some do fall through crevices. Works as a great prep to avoid embassrassment when you are returning to the salon knowing you haven't been there in a long time or give it to the person who will doing feet before they begin the pedicure. if you use it while your heel is wet the skin will get stuck between the blades. use lotion afterwards to keep it smooth! I am so excited can't wait to use it next weeks to come!!
Great for in between visits to pedicurist! December 30, 2007

I love getting pedicures and with my feet, it's something that I really need to do frequently. However, it can get a bit taxing on the wallet.
After seeing the PedEgg on t.v., I was convinced that it was what I needed to keep my heels soft in between pedicures.
On my first usage, I had cracked and dry heels and some dry patches on the pads of my feet. It took about 1/2 hour to do both of my feet, but the result was amazing! My feet are baby soft...softer than even they are after a pedicure.
It's worth every penny...especially since I won't need to get a pedicure nearly so often...actually maybe never. I'll just get them because I want to!
Works like crazy! January 31, 2008

This Ped-Egg works better than even the huge nail files I used.
It smoothed my feet about ten times as well.
YES, some of the filings did escape, WHO CARES? Don't you guys have vacuums, there are lots of them on sale at Amazon.
It's about time I can wear pantyhose with no snags again. (not that I wear them in the winter)
You will have to use it about once a week, I found, to keep them smooth, and moisturize really well after you use it. IF you can stand it, take plastic and wrap your feet after moisturizing, THEN put on your socks, to help the cream stay there, and let it soak in naturally, on not end up on your floors instead!
The only thing I think should be mentioned is the REASON for dry cracked feet is POOR CIRCULATION. (or athlete's feet,if they itch)
If you are having this problem, and you're only 40, you'd better start thinking about your heart.
Dry feet are the least of your worries. And if you don't believe me, try looking at your elderly parents' feet. And their legs, for that matter. (if your parents are still alive, neither of mine are)
This is a common problem when people get older, especially if they have poor circulation. It stops the capillaries from removing the dead skin cells.
Dry cracked feet, and dry skin in general is one of the first signs.
So try as hard as you can to quit smoking, get ANY exercise you enjoy, so you will keep it up, and lose weight, and take care of your heart.
Once you do this, you will reduce your chances of having a heart attack at 55, or sooner!
Honestly.
Ask your doctor!

I called the number given on tv , customer service is all prerecorded with choices you select and it sound like every thing is free except the ped egg , lotion comes free , pads come free but they charge you with 8 dollars shipping for each item they offer for free and you get charged for all that shipping so what i thought would be 20 dollars cost end up costing me 70 dollars for little bitty useless eggs with little blades attached to that ,problem is even u return the product u do not get the shipping cost they charged u and it is the trick they are playing with u , they do not charge much for the prodcut , like i said $ 20 but it comes out to be $70 with the shipping and that is just very unethical way to rib people off .
i will hope some one will read this info and be careful , this was my first experience to buy things from tv and i am very disppointed and now know why these items are not in stores because these companies are running there bussiness by misinforming the viewers and taking thier money .
i am sure there are some honest bussiness available through tv but be very careful.
