I would have given 5 stars except the only downside is they don’t sell the refills in single grit options. Now that our child is using the ultra gritty sand paper, it wears down quickly. We would like a four pack of just the ultra gritty refills please. We have no need for a complete pack for newborns. Option to purchase just one type of grit would be better.","reviewer_name":"Tara M"},{"date":"8 months ago","title":"Beware of replacement head price trap.","rating":2,"content":"Very good product when used with a new pad. Unfortunately, we only have use for the course pad (blue). Once that wore down, we realized we should have purchased another brand because Frida only sells replacement heads in a variety pack. This essentially forces one to pay $10 for one pad!!!  Literally, every review on this site voices the same frustration. Yet, the seller shows no intention to offer single color packs to meet customer demand. Either the company is oblivious of their market or they intentionally designed a strategy to gouge their unsuspecting customers. I will be buying a new filer from another company that offers multi same grit packs. Fortunately, there are plenty to chose from.","reviewer_name":"Frustrated"},{"date":"11 months ago","title":"More individual packs of buffer sizes.","rating":2,"content":"Wish I could buy packs of specific roughness. Hardly used the 0-3, 3-6, 6-9. Used the 12 month since she was like 6 months and it’s used up. Looks like everyone else is getting the same answer. No option for this. Having to purchase a different buffer/electric nail filer. Sad, I really like this one, due to wasting money of buying items I wouldn’t use, probably wouldn’t recommend to a friend or would warn them to get a different one. Which is sad cause it is a great product. Hopefully Frida is working on fixing this. Sounds like they would profit from making this.","reviewer_name":"Mare"},{"date":"a year ago","title":"Please sell in packs of color.","rating":2,"content":"Please sell them in packs by color.

Disappointed, hope you listen to feedback!","reviewer_name":"Erika1013"},{"date":"6 months ago","title":"NEED DIFFERENT REPLACEMENT OPTIONS","rating":1,"content":"Great product but as others have mentioned, we NEED an option to purchase a whole pack of the heaviest grit. Absolutely ridiculous they clearly refuse to offer this. Would not recommend to new moms as you will switch to the 12+ month grit around 6-8 months and then you will have to keep purchasing the whole variety pack.","reviewer_name":"Anonymous"},{"date":"2 years ago","title":"New mom must have!","rating":5,"content":"This is a life saver.

I don't need the variety because my kid is 18 months now. I'll have to buy a different brand even though I prefer Frida.","reviewer_name":"Ericka"},{"date":"a year ago","title":"Need more purchase options","rating":2,"content":"These are awesome. I'm not sure I trust any other nail buffer product. However, as others have stated, the inability to buy only the replacement grit that you need is wasteful and unnecessary. There has to be another solution that the company can offer that would allow for buying only the grit you need. I spend x amount of dollars just to use one grit and the rest are unusable. You are taking advantage of parents/caretakers by not offering an alternative and that is really unfair to your customers.","reviewer_name":"maclady"},{"date":"2 years ago","title":"Good quality but bad marketing/sales options","rating":2,"content":"The buffer and pads are nicely made, better than some of those generic brands on other sites. But, the pads should be sold in packs and also single grit packs. As others have pointed out, if our kid doesn’t require the less grit pads anymore, we have no choice but to buy the whole variety pack and toss 2 or 3 away. They are also pretty much proprietary. The spindle size is not the same as those generic ones and the hole doesn’t allow you put the generic pads on, forcing you to buy these pads. And because the spindle size is slightly different, you can’t use Fridababy’s pads on other brand tools.","reviewer_name":"Billy"},{"date":"a year ago","title":"Need packs for each age/grit","rating":3,"content":"Like many others said, they need to offer replacement packs with several of the same file type. My son is 20 months so it is insane to spend $10 for one single pad each time it needs to be replaced and throw out the remaining 3. It’s more cost effective for me to purchase an entirely new file from a different brand that offers multipacks of each file than it is to continue to buy these replacements.","reviewer_name":"Mich23"},{"date":"a year ago","title":"Frida baby is completely overpriced crap","rating":1,"content":"I am literally buying an entire new buffer because you don’t sell them in ultra grit only. Your products are completely over hyped","reviewer_name":"Max h"},{"date":"a year ago","title":"Replacement pads","rating":5,"content":"My only wish is that you sold them in sets by color/roughness. It’s sad to spend money when 3/4 won’t be used.","reviewer_name":"Jan S"},{"date":"25 days ago","title":"Great product-Needs better replacement parts.","rating":4,"content":"Love this product, but for 2 years, people have been asking to get replacement pads individually instead of as a set. How is this still not an option? Now I only need the older/rougher ones replaced, but it feels wasteful to order a whole new set. I would recommend to new moms to look for a similar product but maybe see if another brand has better replacement part options.","reviewer_name":"Mama Bear1"},{"date":"8 months ago","title":"Good but wasteful","rating":3,"content":"Great that you can get replacement pads but a waste because you have to get replacements for all different versions. I just wanted one but needed to buy four. Would love to be able to get a pack of just one version.","reviewer_name":"Laura 2"},{"date":"10 months ago","title":"Stupid buffer replacement options","rating":2,"content":"I love this tool but you can’t just buy 12 month buffer replacement. You have to keep buying the whole set. It’s so stupid.","reviewer_name":"Olaman"},{"date":"8 months ago","title":"Waste of money. Do not recommend this brand","rating":1,"content":"Don’t you know babies grow up? It has non sense a pack of the 4 levels when once babies grow up, they don’t need firts levels anymore. Do not recommend this brand for future moms/dads","reviewer_name":"Eles Mom"},{"date":"9 months ago","title":"Who is this for?","rating":1,"content":"Not sure what the point of a replacement set of all of the pads is for. By the time my kid is 6+ months old I don't need some of these anymore, I just need refills of a particular type. If I want to get 4 more medium grit for 6-12 months I have to buy 4 packs of these and throw away the ones for newborns? That's incredibly wasteful. Probably should just have bought a hakaa.","reviewer_name":"confused parent"},{"date":"10 months ago","title":"Need an option to buy replacements by grit levels","rating":1,"content":"So frustrating and wasteful that this only comes in a set of all of the grit levels.
