Don't you think that if they looked after the over 50s feet we would trouble the NHS less. I think I'm going to get one and give it a whirl. ;-).Elaine.

Thanks for reporting what they are like.....I had wondered whether they were any good. Seem to get more hard skin as the years go by and I have often resorted to the 'sock' treatment too.

My feet are so bad, hard skin, a corn, funny toenail. I have a pair of those nice socks which soften the feet but I think that gadget sounds just the job to get rid of the built up hard skin.

The advert did put me off a bit but if the results are good, I'll give it a try. Off to google it. Thanks for the info.

Oooooh! We'll be seeing your feet soon? Get a job as a foot model :-D

This sounds great. With arthritis I have enough problems getting socks & shoes on, never mind taking care of my feet.

I have been considering buying one of these. Went to Amazon (its about £1.00 cheaper) and read all the reviews.

It seems that it can take a bit of getting used to. But overall seems to be a good buy.

Also by going through the NectarEstores to Amazon I get Nectar points as well.

Did one foot.

Sat on chair, held out both feet with soles facing OH.

Me: Can you see a difference?

OH: Yes, one foot is clean!

lololol

Did the other one, now I have two "clean" feet and the bathroom floor has dandruff.

But I have terrible cramps from being scrunched up :-(

Will tell friends about this, I think it's great.

btw - my feet weren't dirty, just lots of hard bits of skin from wearing sandals most of the time.
