bluekarin Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Has anyone used one of these and if so what did you think? I've been browsing on eBay and they have some quite cheap. The power of the tv ads calls to me, but I can't quite bring myself to pay nearly £10 for something that may or may not work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I saw an article about these a while back & it wasn't too complimentary I am afraid. Said something about a cheese grater for the feet Might be worth Googling it to see what other info there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonie Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I have one (she wispers quietly) brilliant!!! Honestly I had really cracked hard heels, the egg soon sorted that out!! The skin is only disgusting to someone else, particuarly if you show your husband! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Am I the only one who doesn't want babysoft feet. I like mine hardened s I can do my favourite of walking around bare foot and it no hurting. I don't like doing it this time of year as they're always softened from a winters worth of shoe wearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I shall never eat Parmesan Cheese again as long as I live. Feeble Joke alert. What do chiropodists eat for breakfast? Cornflakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola O Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I'll own up to having one - it is really good. Said something about a cheese grater for the feet It does have the look and feel of a small cheese grater but that, I think, is why it works so well. It really sorted out my heels - much, much better than an ordinary foot file thingy. Nicola. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purple hen Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I have one and it works well, but I wouldn't have paid £10, they often appear at local markets for around £4 I think they are slight seconds, but I saw some copies last weekend at a market for £2.

LisaP Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I saw them in Superdrug at the weekend for £9.99. I need to sort my heels out but didn't get one as it's a lot of money when you're not sure - might have a better look at it now, especially if it might become an Omlet must have!

abwsco Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I have a Microplane foot buffer and it's brilliant. I think ped egg have copied it but made it an egg shape. I bought mine off a seller on ebay.com over a year ago when the exchange rate was good so it was loads cheaper. QVC used to sell them but not sure if they still do.

Trish Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I have one and love it, especially as I paid £2 for it in a pound shop! It is a genuine one so I was really happy. You don't have to take all the hard skin off just enough to get rid of the dry cracked looking stuff. Think of the removed skin as talc, easier to think of it that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I've got one and it's BRILLIANT! Hard cracked yellow feet are awful. Definitely an omlet must have Luckily I've never seen the advert - the first time I emptied the thing I was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnie the Moocher Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Joking aside, I have a parmesan grater that works on the same principle. I shall never look at it in the same way again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
