Anyone familiar with the hsn nail/pedi file?

I see it got mostly great reviews; just wondering if anyone has purchased and/or used them.

 

If so, what are your opinions?  I'm considering purchasing.

 

TIA.

I've not paid much attention to this Today's Special but I have used the glass files in the past. For some reason I'm just not comfortable using them. I think it's because I don't think I can file the sides of my nails closely due to the thickness of the glass file.

I've used glass files before but I don't think I've ever had this brand. The polishing aspect was a positive. I bought three sets; one for me and two are for gifts.

I bought them in December and they are one of my favorite purchases.  I love how smooth they make my feet (I don't use them to shine my nails though) and how they seal the edge of my nails.  They are great for the dry skin around the nail and cuticle as well.  I would recommend trying them.

I  have bought those files before from HSN. Not the same company as the Today's Special.

 

In fact I bought several sets in different configurations. I really like them and they are the only files I now use.

PS - After reading all the comments, I am now wondering what brand that I bought. I will have to start digging out all the files and see if I can find any information.

I have 2 sets of the Regine 3 piece nail/foot files from HSN that are sold out. I really like them think I will order the TS.

I also have the Hello Foot glass foot file that works well.

DH asked how I make my feet so soft.

I bought a set today.  They had a one piece foot/nail item in a FAMY gift set last year.  It is definitely better that another brand I got a long time ago.  They will break though so you need to be careful handling them  Enjoy!

I have the opposite opinion.  I bought a set a few months ago and I do not like them at all.

I changed my mind and canceled my order.  There are many highly rated versions on Amazon, and they ship for free.

No, I haven't tried this set but I've used glass files for many years. In my experience, if it isn't made in the Czech Republic, they don't last very long.

 

These may be good but I don't want to chance it. I already know what works best for me and they're not any more expensive than these. Some reviewers say these dull after a few uses, that's how regular files hold up for me. Use a few times and it's dull.
