Verified customer review
"I love this drill! It is actually really affordable for how amazing it is. What first caught my eye is that the pen part is thinner than most making it much easier to hold! It does not get hot and is very quiet! You can change both its speed and direction. And the best thing is that the drill doesn't have to be plugged into the wall when you're using it! Best nail purchase i've made in a while." —Riley P.

"I loved this nail drill! I'm an amateur trying to learn to do my nails with polygel at home and this drill was the difference between love and hate with my end results. Unfortunately I forgot to take after photos. I had heard MelodySusie mentioned positively in a few polygel tutorials I watched which is why I purchased it. And so happy I did. Way better the old drills I've had." —JessicaRN

Verified customer review
"I spent a great deal of time researching portable electric nail files. I wanted one that was simple to control during the filing process. After reading many reviews, I decided to purchase Beurer MP-62 filing machine. I am glad that I did. It's very easy to control when filing down very thick toenails, which is the reason I needed an electric nail file. Its light weight makes the filing process very comfortable. I strongly recommend the MP-62 for anyone without a lot of nail filing experience." —Natasha

Anyone who likes to do their nails regularly should definitely invest in and become familiar with a professional nail drill.

Verified customer review
"This is really awesome for the price and the fact that it has a built in LED light for spot curing gel nails is amazing. Bought it and brought it home today, used it, loved it. I love that you can store the tips in little hidden slots on the underside! You do have to push the tips firmly into place or else they'll fall out, but it's not a big deal. This works really well and nicely shaped and buffed my tips. You really can't beat it for the price. It's worth having!" —Nichole
