Product Description

Amazon.com Review
Compact and convenient, the Elegant Nails kit from Conair helps you get the polished, shapely nails usually only seen on salon-goers. The backbone of the kit is a rechargeable base unit with a contoured shape, cordless operation, and two dial-controlled speeds. Separate accessory pieces attach to the base for smoothing skin, shaping cuticles, and polishing nails on both fingers and toes. There are six accessory pieces in all: an abrasive cap for calluses, a cuticle shaper, a pointed stone for smoothing cuticles, a coarse filing disc, a fine filing disc, and a polishing disc for shining. The included finger rest helps with precision and is adjustable or removable. A plug-in recharger is also included. The kit's sturdy storage case, measuring just 6-1/2 by 5-1/2 by 2-1/4 inches, keeps it tidy and makes it excellent for traveling. --Emily Bedard

2.0 out of 5 stars Not enough power!, June 18, 2003

By A Customer

I bought this thinking it would be nice to be able to give myself pedicures at home. It was meant to help me unwind, since doing something like this should also be kind of fun. I preface using it by soaking my feel in a relaxing heated foot bath, so my nails are softened up a bit before I use it. In spite of this, the unit simply does not have enough power even for basic maintenance. It takes a hours to recharge fully, so plan ahead before using it! And even with a full charge, it runs out of energy before you can use it on both feet. I've found that if I attempt to file and then buff my toenails it only lasts long enough for one foot, and then I have to recharge it again for hours before I can do the other one. Essentially, it takes a full day (or two separate days) to give myself a pedicure with this. While making it rechargeable (and not having to worry about a cord getting in the way) makes sense in theory, I would much rather deal with the minor annoyance of a cord instead of the major annoyance of a product that isn't up to the job! I shudder to think how ineffective it would be if I attempted to use it without using the foot spa first!

Next time I'll try to find one that either plugs in or tells you in the item description how long it takes to recharge and how long it should hold the charge for! The only advantage to buying this one is that it was cheap, so at least I didn't waste too much money on it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money, June 13, 2003

By A Customer

I have used this one time and put it away. The bits are so smooth, they don't work to sand or buff nails at all. The motor is ok but not very powerful. It just wasn't worth the money. Also, it took 11 days to ship and another several to arrive.
