Better than the clippersFeb 19, 2007
By Sandy
"bubbinsmom"
I bought this to trim the nails on my large dog who would not be still for the clippers. He was much easier to manage with these grinders. The big advantage is that I can grind off as much of his nail as possible without causing bleeding, which was difficult with a jumpy dog who has black nails. I would have given a higher rating except that this is a bit noisy in my opinion (I am not a groomer nor do I have much experience with these tools, however) and often the bit will gradually slide off.

Handy but poor qualityApr 06, 2008
By Work in Progress I bought this for the same reason the other reviewer did: I have a large Sharpei/St. Bernard mix with black nails. I used this successfully maybe 3 times, then the plastic around where the cord plugs into the power adapter broke. I looked all over the web and at local electronics stores for a replacement, but the male/female ends are reversed on this, so I could not find one. The manufacturer did not offer a replacement adapter either that I could find. Seriously disappointed. I bought a Dremel and use the tips with it at around 15-18,000 RPM.

Torment your animalsJul 28, 2008
By Kathy Parker
"kpprokop"
This product was a complete waste of money. My animals are TERRIFIED of the dremel and refused to let me use it to trim their nails. Just the sound alone sent them running under the nearest table and when they felt the vibrations from the thing, it was all over. I'm back to cutting my dogs nails the old-fashioned way. With a nail clipper and some anti-coagulent handy. Very disappointing.
The tool itself worked fine, although it did get quite hot after awhile. I guess you need to train your animals when they are small to get acclimated to the sound and feel of the dremel. Totally do not recommend for adult dogs that are used to nail clippers.

Professional EndorsementNov 11, 2009
By NJVampaholic I am a professional dog groomer and I have tried many different types of grinders. Yes this product is a little noisy BUT it never dies and it has an adjustment wheel. I can put it on slow for small dogs with tiny nails and I can put it on high for thick nails. I prefer the high setting because I can get any nail done in a shorter time. You have to adjust the screw on top in order to get the sand paper to stay to the grinder but I love it. When this product finally dies (which all grooming tools do when you use them as often as I do) I will ONLY buy this one again.

much better than reviews indicateDec 17, 2008
By No One In Particular i have had one of these for about 2 years and use it for my beagle/schnauzer mix dogs (1 boy 1 girl) and while they don't like it they tolerate it ok. it leaves the nails so much smoother than clipping alone. i mostly use it after i clip their nails so they are smooth and don't scratch my floors or legs etc when they tend to jump on me and run on my floors. i just got a teacup poodle and plan to try it on her too. the only reason i didn't give it 5 stars it the cord is a pain in this day of everything being cordless. but it it do-able. occasionally the bands do slip, but from what i read they can do that on all of these type nail products. all in all i would buy this again, but wish it was cordless. oh, and it is not too loud. it gets louder on higher speeds, and you have to be careful with this type of thing not to let it get to hot on their nails.
