This is so easy to use and effective! Consider the heavy duty file if you have significant calluses
By sarah b on Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2023
This foot file is exactly as described - comes with batteries, put them in, turn it on, gently file away all the dead skin on your feet, have nice feet again! It works SO well! It is a whole different world of effectiveness compared to using a manual file on your feet. I go barefoot/wear sandals a bunch in the summer and every year I develop serious calluses on my heels. I used to halfheartedly manually file them or hope the occasional pedicure would help, but the manual effort to results ration just isn't that great. After a single 30 minute session of using this tool the calluses were 90% gone. I have been doing maintenance sessions about every 2 weeks to work on the tougher areas where the calluses like to come back, and my feet are softer and smoother than I can recall. Using it was totally comfortable, obviously don't apply it to a spot where you don't have calluses or dead skin to remove, but it feels like something between a foot massage and a slight tickle. I actually wish I had gotten the heavy duty / extra grit file roller because it probably would speed things up, but given that the file roller is replaceable I'll just buy that one when the time comes. This tool seriously changed my feet, I thought it might be too good to be true after such lackluster results from manually filing. But because it can file so much faster, it's so much more effective. It's like a tiny gentle Dremel for your feet. I'm seriously considering buying more as gifts for the other ladies in my family.

If you're a regular pumice stone user, the results aren't so impressive
By Marinite on Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2024
As someone who uses a pumice stone on my feet every time I shower, my feet don't usually end up dry/scaly/cracking. But after a couple of weeks of hiking and camping, my feet were looking the worse for wear, so I thought I'd try this Amope electric option to see if I could get the same quick and baby-soft results most reviewers reported. So I was surprised that it didn't do as good a job as my inexpensive Mr. Pumice callus remover/foot smoother. The Amope tool also took longer to use, was way messier (I took one reviewer's suggestion to use sitting on the edge of a bathtub with my feet over the tub, and I'm glad I did), and took longer to clean (had to clean with an old toothbrush to remove dry skin particles that clogged up the roller). I did find that the Amope roller works better on dry feet, though it's meant to be used on wet or dry feet. The first time I used it, my feet were dry, but I'd just got out of the shower. The second time, I used it on dry feet before showering, and I'll admit it did a better job, but not enough to say it's superior to a regular, low-tech, low-cost pumice stone. That said, I think this tool might be more effective and easier to use if it were just a flat disk that rotated, instead of a roller.
