I love my ped egg, I needed a new grater after the first few weeks but the refills seem sharper than the original. I couldn’t believe after the first use how good it felt to actually feel the floor with all of my foot.

In the summer my calluses get really thick and then crack so I was hoping if I filed them off now I wouldn’t have that happen.

BTW oxycleen is great and so is the shamwow!

Count me in with those who love the Ped Egg. I wear combat boots throughout the winter, and much of the Spring and Fall. My feet bear the brunt of the damage, in the form usually of large callouses on the sides of my big toes, and the back of my heels. The Ped Egg takes good care of em. I only have to use it once a month or so, but it really does work wonders.

Emory cloth has always worked for me. It would never occur to me to buy a special tool for the purpose.

I also have the PedEgg and it works great. The sensation did feel a bit strange at first, but afterwards, I had the smoothest and softest feet ever. I do need to get some refills though, mine has gotten pretty dull.
