Personal Care Reviews

it not good, but you can try the one that Dr. Leonard's has for 7.99 it is very good. It is item #72199.

Just the slightest pressure will cause the thing to turn off - which is a safety feature. It is ok for filing nails, but not for buffing the feet. It does not apply enough pressure to make it worthwhile. It is a great idea, but it fails to be affective. Wait for the improved version of this item!

...and still wish I hadn't! Total piece of junk, complete waste of time and money...period. All the other reviews have summed it up quite well!

Something like this should not be battery powered as all you have to do is apply light pressure and the thing stops rotating. Horrible, horrible product. Save the [$] and buy a hand file.

Doesn't do a darn thing it's supposed to. Not enough power to do anything!

I concur with all other reviews: I actually threw it out after 2 minutes since all it could do was grab hairs rather than cut them, and the razor would stall. Buy a good product instead!!!!

Don't believe what you see on TV. Not only did I pay twice as much for this as I could have, but when I got it, it broke while installing the battery. "Firmly hold the top and slide the battery compartment off", the directions say, as if it is just that easy. What results in firmly holding the top while trying to slide the bottom off is that you break the blade off, and the battery compartment never ends up coming off. Buy something from a more reputable company, such as Remington. Their products will do a lot more and cost you less.

I saw this on tv and though it was cool so I bought one at a local store (not amazon). It was completely unable to cut one mustache hair and really couldn't remove the light neck hairs either. It would grab a hair and just pull rather than cut. Within 5 minutes of trying various techniques I threw it in the garbage.

This blow dryer is NOT good. I had it for about a month, and one time I was blowdrying my hair and it sucked it in from the back part and broke. Now it doesn't work and when I turn it on it smells like it is burning and makes a weird noise. NOT happy--don't buy it.

I bought this item believing that it would tame the frizz when drying my hair. Boy, was I disappointed that it frizzed my hair even more. I will return it as soon as possible!

Ok, this product looks great but does not work. I do not think that it removed 1 hair. It is kind of hard to remove hair when it does not spin as soon as you apply pressure. Do not even try it and if you don't like it get your money back. Don't waste your time. Very dissapointed.

If you want to get refund, you have to write a letter.

This ... Interplak toothbrush is posibly the worst item I have ever purchased from Amazon, unfortunately I threw out the packaging before trying out the product the next morning, and now I cannot get my money back! I changed the batteries a number of times but the brush head moves too slowly to clean any teeth. My ... Crest Spinbrush is much better than this.

This is possibly the worst product I have ever purchased...and at such a high price, no wonder it is no longer manufactured! My $5 Crest Spinbrush works 5 times better than this Interplak product, which cost me 5 times more! I threw out the packaging immediately b/c I had faith it would work and now I can't return it and get my money back! The brush and motor work extremely slow and do not clean properly...it is totally worthless....

... it didn't work at all. Supposed to be new, the light goes on but no ions are coming out ...
I've had other brands of personal ionizer, Air Supply, Sharper Image, that do work. You can smell the ionization and there is a hum. This product is a dud.

I bought this as a gift for my wife, who as asthma and is allergic to dust but she did not like it.

My wife was worried about the O3 {ozone} released. The O3 is what cleans the air, but that in itself has been considered a polluntant for asthmatics to avoid. Until she sees real evidence of its effectivness from a reliable source she will not use it. She would rather stick to HEPA filters which are recommended and approved by a large number of professional and medicial recommendations.

I bought it on May 19th 2002 and gave it as present to my father-in-law , who lives in foreign country.Unfortunately I never tested it before giving him this product.He opened the gift pack after 1 year , the first time and is not working at all.I don't suggest anybody to buy this product.If at all you want to present anyone anything just test it before you give them to avoid humiliation.I bought it for $64.I would have used this money for other purpose.

So my blood pressure was running high-normal, and my Doc recommended that I take steps to lower it and get a BP monitor to track my progress. When I began using this I became more and more concerned that my head might pop off!! Just got back from my 2 month follow up. The good news is that my blood pressure has actually dropped a little. The bad news is that I wasted my money on this inaccurate piece of junk.

Slow to heat, does not sit on cradle correctly and does not hold the heat once it is charged. Does not smooth skin as advertised.
...

The spoon doesn't sit in the charger correctly. You have to play with it to get it to charge. Then when the battery is charged, the spoon stays warm for one or two minutes maximum.

We tested this in the Florida sun at 3:00 PM and got no reading of UVB output. We also tested this on new UVB bulbs coming out of the box that also gave a 0.00 output, we tested six of these and it was the same with all.

Well, we got this to test out on the Powersun bulbs produced by ZooMed. These are mercury vapour bulbs used to give off essential UVB that reptiles require to process Calcium & Vitamin D3. These are industry standard bulbs for San Diego Zoo, as well as many other large zoos & educational establishments.

According to this little meter, none of our bulbs are giving off ANY UVB, neither are our flourescent UVB tubes. Apparently the sun's a little lacking in UVB too these days - even here in Sunny ol' Florida.

For 28 bucks, with the potential savings (if it worked) for a great many people, it was worth buying just to see if it was any good. Now I've actually seen how it works, it's worth about $3 for a neat lil digital clock. That's about it though.
