Pros: It's not like those cheap glass nail file on eBay. They're durable and does the job. They've lasted me for a while and still going strong. Con: It is a little expensive considering...

Yes, yes, it takes down length efficiently without damaging your nails, it's long-lasting, all that. The tip is also good for cleaning out dirt from under the nails. But for me, the area in which I...

I bought this after a youtube guru raved about it....Epic fail for me. Cheap-feeling, flimsy feeling, and does not file! I file-file-file, and nothing!! Would much rather (and much prefer!!) my...

It's a really good crystal file. My 2 bugbears are that 1. The case is really flimsy and has cracked after 3 years - this may seem picky, but when the file has the potential to last forever l...

What I really like about it is the feather light touch you can use, in fact must use. It's strange to use in it removes nail like its a 10 grit sanding machine yet it leaves such a smooth surface....

this glass nail file has saved my nails! I bought it out of curiosity since one of my customers purchased a hundred dollars worth of them to give out as gifts. I thought it was a bit pricey at...

This was the first crystal nail file I bought, and while I now alternate between it and my NailTek file, this one will always be my favorite. I have very soft, weak nails that tend to peel into...

I lurrve my OPI file! We're very limited as to the brands we can buy here in Australia, so to be able to find a quality crystal file made me pretty happy :) It's gentle but efficient and doesn't...

Love, love, love this! I'm on number 2 (it is crystal and is definitely fragile ...if your S.O. Is anything like mine, don't expect it to last very long under harsh conditions). I bought my second...

My gosh, why am I the only one who doesn't like this? I absolutely hate this file! I thought that glass crystal files were supposed to be more gentle on the nails and file them more smoothly --...

This is my first crystal nail file and I like what I see! Compared to emery files, this files more with less effort. I also did a little test where I filed one index finger with the OPI crystal...

I love this crystal file and it's much easier to take care of my nails since I bought it. :) It's not cheap for a file, but it's really worth every penny I paid for it.

I see no reason to buy this over the cheaper version at the drugstore or Sephora, and am scratching my head as to what I was thinking at the time. Using this wet as directed, it's totally amazing...
