My first wheel. Ideal for manicures! It struggles a bit with pedicures, but I take it in doses so it doesn't burn out, but I still get the job done. The bits it comes with are okay, but of course, you need to have others for better results. I give it four stars because it annoys me that the bits fit tightly and there is no opening or closing for easy removal, especially when taking them off. Overall, satisfied with its value for money.

Additional review on 8/8/2020:
Well, everything was fine until it broke down. Specifically, during use on pedicures, it gave its last breath. But I have to admit that I am partly to blame because I used it in doses for a long time to prevent overheating and burning, but this time, maybe due to my trust (as I was satisfied), I forgot to let it cool down, resulting in a strange noise and the bit stopping whenever it made contact. The pen of the wheel had heated up quite a bit. With all that being said, I don't regret my purchase because as a first wheel and at such a price (under €15 if I remember correctly), it was what I needed. An affordable wheel with which I learned to work on hands and feet and realized that it's something I want to continue doing, so now I will invest in a more expensive one with higher rotations. That's all.

Within the first month of household use (maximum 4 times used), the pen broke during the removal of semi-permanent.

  It worked for a few seconds and then just turned off. Not even 10 minutes have passed since I opened it and I didn't even get to use it...

  After a year of amateur use, I am very satisfied. I use it about once every 3 weeks for semi-permanent removal that I do myself. It has not presented any problem. At moderate speed and with gentle movements, it removes the semi-permanent very quickly without damaging the nails. Of course, the wheels wear out over time, which is reasonable.

  For its price, it's worth it. I've had it for about 5 years, although I haven't used it every day during all these years, so it still works like new. The pedal is also unnecessary

  I have had it for almost 4-5 years, amateur use - once a month for my nails. Clearly, it lacks the capabilities of a professional drill, but for personal use and with the appropriate bits, it does a great job of removing gel or acrylic. A major drawback is that some bits with long stems do not fit in the pen - it only takes the size of those that come with it. One piece of advice I learned from a professional technician was to never change the speed while it is in operation. It is the number one reason why your machine will burn out, even if it is the most expensive one. In conclusion, it is a good value for the money, which is why I give it 5 stars, but definitely not for professional use - I paid about 25 euros for it back then.

  Not good at all!!! I bought it in October, as soon as I got home, I plugged it in to see if it works, it made a bang and burned out without even using it on my nails. They replaced it for me and brought me one that I used only three times and then it got blocked, it couldn't take the drill bits, not even the ones that were already inside!! UNACCEPTABLE!!

  It does nothing. I tried it on a gel base and it immediately broke. It doesn't even reach the speed of the washing machine (for example)

  If I could give 0 stars, I would. I bought this particular wheel and on the 3rd set, it started shaking. I want to emphasize that I removed the gel polish! I returned it, they sent me another one, and on the first set, at high speed, it started shaking again and I had to finish the manicure, it was impossible, and I didn't erase it and after 2 minutes, it burned out. Don't buy it, it's better to spend some extra money than on this

  The wheel seemed perfect to me the first time for 15 euros, it was also powerful, only it didn't hold the blades so I had to keep it in an upward position so they wouldn't come off. However, it would overheat if, for example, I removed the gel from one hand, it needed a break for the second. Well, all this lasted for me to remove the semi-permanent/gel three times because the fourth time it abandoned me with only four fingers, it simply stopped working and hasn't worked since then... You get what you pay for. It's better to pay 40-50 instead of 15 and get something fake. Never buy it!

  For its price (I think I bought it for around 14 euros), it is very good!
  I have been using it for amateur use for a few years and I haven't even tried the pedal (I find the pen style of it very convenient without the pedal).

  To be honest, I didn't expect much with this amount of money, but it has performed remarkably well in the things I have needed it for.

  It works perfectly for removing semi-permanent, manicures, pedicures (even with a pododisc).
  And at maximum speed, everything is fine.
  I wouldn't say it has any annoying "vibration" in the hand or anything like that.

  Mine, at least, doesn't throw away the bits.
  Of course, it initially comes with its own bits (this set of 5, if I remember correctly, that I see many wheels have), but you can buy additional bits separately (with some searching, there are different prices and types depending on what someone wants).

  "Negatives" (if you can call them negatives - I don't evaluate them as very serious for the product):
  - Mine, when you "shake" it, you can hear a small piece of metal moving inside. I don't know if it had it from the beginning, but when I noticed it, I was worried that it wouldn't work at all and I started wondering if I had destroyed it... Well, I opened it and it worked perfectly fine, and it still does (it has been years). I honestly wonder what that sound is inside! It's scary and funny at the same time...
  - If used continuously for a long time, the pen part heats up a bit. BUT with a short break or placing it near the nail absorber (which releases relatively cold air), everything is fine.

  Finally, let me say the following, which I hope will help:
  Very "cheap" products are sometimes a matter of "luck". For me, what I bought turned out to be quite good (despite the "noise").

  For me, I would say it is a value for money purchase and I would probably choose it again.

  I have it for a year and it still works, but after a while it doesn't hold the blades and they come out during use. It still does its job and I learned a lot with it. It is a good choice to start with as it is very cheap.

  I bought it to take care of my mom's feet, as she is bedridden. Unfortunately, after half a year of having it and after using it a maximum of 6 times, I realize that it burns out very quickly and the spinner stops spinning. I can go days without using it, and when I try to operate it, the spinner doesn't work at all.

  I bought it for training, as a whole the wheel is good, I have used it many times for removing acrylic, semi-permanent, cuticles, etc. It does the job just fine, but when I increase the speed, it makes a strange noise and shakes, but when I touch it on the nail, it stops shaking and the pedal doesn't work for me... for some reason, this doesn't bother me at all, what bothers me quite a bit is that the bits don't stay in place, they come off, you always have to keep it at an upward angle. The bits for cuticles are okay, you just need to buy better ones. So far, I am satisfied with the quality-price ratio

  Not satisfied at all... I used it 5 to 6 times for semi-permanent, then I used it on acrylic to practice and the second time it malfunctioned. It made a strange noise and suddenly changed direction and cut me.
  I may have bought it for 20€ but when you start in this field, you don't have money to waste. I do not recommend it at all.

  As a beginner, I wanted something economical.
  It helped me get familiar with the wheel.
  But, after the first 5 minutes of use, the handle burns so much that I can't hold it.
  Its rotations do not work with stability, meaning they constantly adjust.
  During use, the handle makes a noise as if something is stuck and you feel like it's going to explode in your hands.
  If you need an economical solution for your nails or for your start, this is definitely not what you need!

  I have had it for two years for household use. Quite powerful at first, easily handling any material. Gradually, it started to weaken and struggle to stick. However, it never stopped working and I was still able to do my job... Today, after 2-2.5 years - I don't remember exactly - it died as the material that turned the drill got worn out... Which should be noted that it is elastic. There is no way to repair it, so I am left with a very good motor without a wheel. It made its money back... I just wouldn't buy it again.

  Not particularly good. Initially, the first one that came to me was defective and I had to replace it (the pedal didn't work and the wheel's cable was cut). And the second one that came still doesn't work the pedal, but I don't really care about that because I don't need it, but sometimes it makes strange noises and I think it doesn't have as much power as the previous one that was defective. Anyway, if it lasts me about six months, it will be fine.

  The most useless wheel that exists!
  With the first use, it worked for 1 minute and then boom! I send it back and they replace it for me, I plug it in and it starts smoking and stops working... 3 replacements today... I receive it and go to plug it in to see if it works properly... Result? It booms again and emits smoke! I do not recommend it to anyone! Do not buy it... It's not worth it!

  Very good for its price, although the intensity is average.
  It is a bit annoying that the components do not fit together somehow, you just pull or push them.
  Overall, it works well though

  I bought it for personal use, as soon as I plugged it in to test it, it burned out. They did repair it for me, of course... but I ordered something new and ended up with something fixed. It's okay for some use at home, but definitely not for professionals, not even for beginners

  I have had it for a year and I am very satisfied. With the right drill bits (not the ones included), I do a very good job! And due to work, I use it on a daily basis. It reaches high speeds without too much annoying vibrations. The only negative thing is that the pen does not "lock" and "unlock" and the drill bits need a little pressure to attach.
