Electric Nail Files: Comparing PRO VS DIY E-Files | Which e-file to buy? Is a professional efile worth the price? In this video I take you through my journey in efiles, and I specifically compare and contrast my current e-file the Valentino V-Unit with the Amazon popular DIY beginner friendly, MelodySusie Scamander.

Thank you for your honest review: You didn't just trash the melodysusie based on the price alone.
Good job, you just got a new subscriber.
I’m a diyer and I currently use the melody suisie scarlet efile and I love it!! I’ve had it for over a year now and it’s still working great.
That’s great. Thanks for sharing!
Is it portable? Table model?
Eufi Mercedes I just ordered that efile and it’s almost here. Can’t wait! I’ve heard great things about it.
is it still works now?
I've literally been shopping for a new e file for the last few weeks. Was seriously considering the V Unit so thanks for this!
it is very sleek looking, and again I think it is a Medicool in disguise... hehe. Which is a good thing! Otherwise, I would go with anyone of Erica's.
I really love the way u compare nail products Paola! Ur very rational and consider the right elements, plus ur voice is very soothing 😂👌 Only 1yr in to my new nail career journey, but am obsessed & very passionate... Excited to enter this giveaway & BEST of luck to all that enter ❤️
Thanks tatam! Best wishes in i your nail journey!
Just started learning how to do nails this video answers alot of efile questions thank you!
Thank YOU!
Great and informative review. Thank you Paola!
Sure! Thanks for watching!
Awesome information. Thanks now I can order a Valentino Efile 😊 and have an extra apart from my Mini Kupa efile
I have the scamander and as a beginner it is good . I did have a issue with the had piece and I definitely am looking into getting something new
Thank you for the review I bought one and it’s perfect for a beginner like me
This is an awesome video! I’m looking into buying a new efile I’m excited to see which one I end up buying! I love Valentino and also have the extractor
I have a video on the Valentino dust collector! Make sure to watch it if you haven’t!
Paola Ponce Nails I will thanks! I love it!
Thank you! I was eyeing the melodiesusie on Amazon but wasn’t sure if it’s ok for me but I’m a diy person and I love my nails with Swarovski! So for me, it should be great until I feel I really want a mani pro. I appreciate this video comparing sooo much! ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Yes MS is super affordable just to start off. If you need a discount code you can use PPN10K
Very fair review! Love all the points you made! I didn't know Valentino Just put his name on the Medicool. But I Love the Medicool brand! I have the 35k in black and rose gold. If you get it from Medicool thr handpiece and box is rosegold
Nice!
Thanks for offering a giveaway! I have the super simple melodysusie efile and was thinking of upgrading but was on the fence about it because I’m a DIYer but the unit would get warm when I used it. Probably using it for too long but I’m still trying to get over my fear of the efile and how to use it safely and properly.
The you for the great review
Thank you for the awesome video, I’ve been shopping for the E file , and now considering to get the V one , I’ve been watching all your UA-cam video now , and I got the Valentino dust collector coz I’ve been watching those video from you , thank you
Nice! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the helpful info. I was thinking the same thing about the use of private labeling on these.
Yes, it’s good if a reliable company who is not into the business of crafting them from scratch buys from a trusted reliable source to “private label” but when everyone is just buying from a low quality joint just to have an efile to sell... IDK about that.
Paola Ponce Nails Agreed. It always pays to use due diligence when making purchases. Even some customer reviews have become suspect, unfortunately. That's why I appreciate when someone such as yourself takes the time to bring light to these things.
Very informative video! just what I was looking for and trust me I've been looking.:) just sad your video didn't pop up sooner. better late than never! thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I like a slender handpiece, but now I know that doesn't always mean a lighter weight. Lol. Tfs
Awesome info. Thank u
Seriously appreciate this video. I really need to invest in an e-file now that I have been doing nails more consistently again. Hand filing takes just too long, but I also want to make sure I get a cheaper easy model for myself before truly committing.
Do you do gel nails or acrylic?
@@PaolaPonceNails Gel. Acrylic and I are not friends (chemical sensitivities). And I've found that for friends&clients its just simply the way to go. The wear is much more natural and works with the nails.
Where did u got the test finger from? And it is attached to your dust collector?
how much power do each of these have? (not RPMs) and how long do they hold a charge? and what does there dust collector look like?
Super helpful! I own an Airsee nail drill 💖
Yes, they probably all source from the same place and just stick their logo on it, or sometimes they are the same company just using a different name.
@@PaolaPonceNails Oh I see, thanks for the help! 💕
How long have you had your Airsee drill and how do you like it now?
The Valentino/Medicool e-file also looks like the Light Elegance Zippy file.
Have you tried any of these e-files. I have been trying to do comparisons and I am torn between valentino, light elegance zippy or kiara sky.
Where did you get your silicone practice finger?
At my nail salon they have a deemed tool with some sort of foot petal and drill attachment. Can we talk about this?
Just purchased the Valentino. I’m a 2 yr novice self taught. This is my third drill.
Good! Which 2 did you buy prior?
The Melody Susie´s Nail Drills are to dieeee fooor! But they aren´t that pro I have heard, I just rodered the Stacie Nail Drill and it comes next week!! I´am going to do a Unboxing!
Thank your for this review! I just bought the MelodySusie one but I can't find a store or link to buy the pro-techs thing!

Hello how does the valentino compare to the kupa?
Thanks!
Very good comparison!
I was wondering where you purchased your practice finger? I'd like to buy I practice hand or finger, pls let me know.
Xio Mar hi, not sure if you’re still looking but red iguana sells practice fingers
its actually a saeshin nail drill , saeshin is an korean company. they made nail drill and dentist drill. medicool , velentino etc.. , they're all just a rebrand. I still recommend the older medicool 20k model because handpiece has better torque comparable to the legendary up200 handpiece. torque is what you're looking for in a handpiece not rpm, using a high torque handpiece at low rpm will create less heat and still be able to file smoothly without getting stuck if you need pressure.Low torque handpiece in the other hand you will need to increase the rpm to get the same power but it will create more heat. this tell you which handpiece has a more quality motor within the handpiece. whoever have been using up200 handpiece before know that the handpiece only has 20k rpm on it but it'll file through any hard acrylic like butter without stalling/stuck. professional portable efile I recommend are the manipro older model with longer handpiece not the slim handpiece one, medicool 20k, and the luraco pro 30k
Thank you!
Super helpful! And I’ve eyed the Luraco for a while!
Light Elegance's Zippy e-file appears to be a private-labeled Medicool Pro Power 35K Portable as well. I don't think people realize how common private labeling is; these brands don't have the resources to manufacture all of their own electronics. Thanks for talking about how that doesn't mean it's a scam.
So true! Thanks for commenting on this too!
Great detail video. However I’m still lost as to what makes that drill worth $300+ . The sparkle pro melody Susie drill goes to 35k rpm as well and that drill is only $180. And the handle is just as slender as the one you have. I’m basically asking is the mechanisms inside different which will make one last longer than the other because it’s not then I’m seriously confused as to why one is preferred over the other.
Efile qualities are defined with time. Hard to say it will last you for years, if that efile has only been in the market for 2 years.
That the efile have a readily accessible service dept is important too.
I had the melodysusie drill and I only do my own nails. The handpiece stopped working in 3 months so I only got about 5 or 6 uses out of it :) there does $70
Ugh!
This is exactly why I havent bought this Melody Susie model even being so highly reviewed and such a big Amazon seller. New to doing gel manis at home this year and seems like whether you get a $30 cheaper variety or pay top dollar there are endless experiences of both breaking down within a year just the same. Makes it so hard to choose as dont mind investing but joke able to have something break down at high costs too.
Would you recommend the melody Susie scammender or scarlet one ?
Sparkle Pro will be the more reliable option with the MelodySusie Brand.
Have you tried. Young nails e file?
You should make Asmr videos your voice is very soothing!❤
Thank you sososososo much! I was going to buy nail labo so bad, but I’m so glad I saw your video before I break my heart in two years
Nail Labo is my fave! I have it now.
@@PaolaPonceNails Nail Labo is on sale today and I freaking missed the portable one because I was adding drill bit to my cart. So sad. It will not be in stock for several month. I bought a cheap one from Amazon and I don’t like it, it’s shaking my nail. I guess I need to buy the desktop version now...😭
Oh no.
I need to know where is the finger from!!!
Very cool to see the comparisons!!
Thanks for sharing 💜💖💜
I have a MelodySuzie that goes 35,000 RPM too. Also, a brushless motor! Had to ask the mr about that lol I notice the bits really really matter too! I love a good quality titanium bit with flutes, I think they are called.🤷🏻♀️ I heard of a nail tech, (she commented on my video ) using a 4x coarse grit n I was shocked at that. My volcano, piranha n (I forgot other bits name) are awesome enough! Eats through products like crazy!
Nice do you know the model of the Melodysusie you own? How often do you use?
@@PaolaPonceNails it's the Sparkle version.
I usually use my desktop one it's only a back up...so no report on longevity. Plus only bern a few months ago.
I did have issues when I first tried it...(like my 1st ever a super cheap one...) motor was unscrewed a bit...in the handle they come loose sometimes. You can see it in my video even. 1st time I use one in film without fully testing first too.
I've had it happen on two brands so far.
Once, my" no name one" made odd noises all the sudden then stopped.... I unscrewed handle of my 1st (a no name kind) took out motor and put back in presto worked again...so far works🤞 but I gave it up for a prettier model. Lol now I sound mean 😂😂😂 the AIRSEE, (same as another MS) that has the hole in center like one you showed.
I’ve had my Valentino e drill for 2 weeks and it has stopped working it keeps markin “E4” which means I don’t know what or why but 😢😢😢 it was so dam expensive to I emailed Valentino to see if I can get a replacement hopefully they reply soon because I was so excited about it 😔
They have one of the kindest most diligent team. All should be well :)
I bought the atwood pro techs but they just slide around on the shaft and dont stay put
never had that issue. maybe your shank size is not 3/32
Do you think a less expensive efile would be good for someone with toenail fungus/thickening of the nails? I have worked to get rid of the fungus or whatever, seeing specialists and I've done all I can but my toenails are this way and they get very thick and uncomfortable, going to get pedicures all the time gets pricey. Looking for an alternative. Manually filing is a real nuisance.
Try soaking your nails in apple cider vinegar and yes get a cheap e file if your using it for fungus
Hey guys can someone send me an eBay Link with pro techs. I would love to buy some for my nail drill. So dust doesn't get inside.
Go to Atwood Industries website. Don't skimp on those
Hi amazing video. I'm a licensed cosmetologist and I take clients on a daily basis. Have u used kiara sky or geisha? If so which one of those would u recommend
i was told by my local beauty supply they have stopped selling erica's ata as they are not legal to sell, they don't meet the electrical specifications i believe
What!? What state/country is this?
@@PaolaPonceNails canada, saskatchewan specifically i was asking about efiles and why they had removed all erica's eta products from their website. that when he told me because of the none compliance. he also told me how dangerous it was to buy any brand efile thru aliexpress etc as they aren't complaint. . he even told me of nail tech whose home caught fire and the device (was not clear what brand) was not complaint and therefore her insurance was voided.
@@BajaRosie got it. Yes, different countries have different electrical output specifications. Thanks for this info!
What is the dust preventer called? The pro tec??
Pro Tech Dust Caps from Atwood
Is the valentino efe better than the kiara sky efile?
For sure.
Ir Voice is so calm
Thank you for all the info. I’ve been searching for a good e-file (would be the first one I buy) I’m thinking of getting Medicool Pro 35k or Ericas Mt-20. Which of the 2 would you recommend? (:
Both are good. Portables last a little less, and also consider who makes maintenance of your efile easier. Nothing worst then bad customer service. Those both are good, and either one will be as good I think.
Paola Ponce Nails thank you so much! I appreciate it ❤️
i feel u on not liking tabletop efiles 😭 they all look so chunky
Yes, I have to make an effort to like them. They are soo much reliable. Maybe I can put Swarovskis all over them 😂
Thanks for offering this giveaway + for sharing e-file info with us! Can you go over torque vs. RPM? Good luck people!💗
Torque=Power (like that initial “whip”)
RPM = Speed
The torque helps to deliver a smooth but high efficient speed.
@@PaolaPonceNails Thanks!
Do you think the V is better than the mani pro passport complete?
Hmmm... I had both. I’d say the V is more lightweight. A little smoother. Both great options, I want to say you can’t go wrong, but just do a lotta more research with Valentino to see what kind of service program they offer. That is where Kupa has the advantage.
@@PaolaPonceNails thank you soo much!!
Of course!
Thank you!! One last question did you have the passport kp-60 or kp-55
55 :)
RPM do not mean anything essentially. What you should be paying attention to is wattage.
A combination of the 2 things you mentioned + strong torque :)
Is the torque good on this drill?
Which one?
Valentino yes. MS no.
Hi Paola, great video as always! Although if I’m honest sometimes I have a hard time understanding you when you talk too fast😆
I opened this video and thought I had turned on NPR for a second.
Yaaaayyy i want to win!!!
To the point! 😆
@paola Ponce who won?
Omg 5 mins in and still didn’t get to point
Love your voice
