This gadget is a gamble—some parents swear by the gentle filing action, while others have accidentally caught baby's skin and caused tears (theirs and baby's). Great for confident parents with steady hands who are terrified of traditional clippers, but skip it if you want something foolproof or have a wriggly baby.
⚠️There's a real risk of catching delicate baby skin if your little one moves suddenly, so only use this when baby is completely still or asleep.
