LOL. Thanks Shannon. No, the nails start to pull off the bed almost immediately after application. I leave the nails on for almost two weeks, but if I left them on longer than that, all my nails would have pulled away from the beds. I think I am allergic now or it is just too quick a cure and it is pulling my nails away. I can actually feel the heat of the cure for about two days. Sometimes it is HOT. I am just too sensitive.

Refill my nails??? OMG-- I bite them off!! I tell my clients to do as I say and not as I do. I do not have to pay to get my nails done!! Actually, I cannot wear nails much. I am going to try the soak gels. The acrylic pulls my nails off the bed, so I do not want to wear them often. I just manicure mine. But really, I just crack them on my back teeth!!! I am bad!!!

That is what I use since the piece did not fit the Kupa or the Eve-n-Touch. The hands free piece is a clamp and I am so used to it now. If you make it stationary on your table, it may be harder to maneuver the fingers to the opening.

It wasn't easy to adapt to because of the weight and pulling from that huge hose. Everyone's situation is different, so if you decide to invest, I think you'll love it too! I bought mine from the company that makes them. I've had great results it dealing with them. The system used to attach the clear top (containing the filter) to the base isn't the greatest. It's made of plastic and I've broken two. The first one they replaced at no cost. When it broke again, I just attach it with a wide piece of packing tape. Doesn't look great, but no one sees it but me. Today, at Nail Kamp, it was driving Vicki nuts! So, Vicki-style, she suggested I attach it somehow to my (homemade) armrest so that it wouldn't interrupt my use of the e-file. I think that's workable, and I must say, having that thing off my file makes my life soooo much easier. But I love that little vacuum!!!

The e-file I got directly from Kupa, Inc. I figured if I was going to invest in and e-file that I would buy one of the best out there, I wanted great customer service and great product. I asked around the tech forums etc, and decided on the Kupa KP3000. The hose and hand piece for the vac system I bought separate from Akzentz, that will attach to any canister style vaccum, but I taped it onto my partigon and it works great.

How whack is that? Where did you all get yours? Also, I know we've talked about this before but I don't think I saved the emails. I want to invest in a "real" e-file but am afraid of spending that much money. I need a lightweight hand piece. Thank you!

Plus the weight of the hose pulled on it and caused a lot of pain in my hand. So I orginally used the tabletop piece, then I McGivered the hose with medical hose and different things to attach it to my vac. I now have a hose and nozzle piece that I bought from gelessentialz and it works great, I still had to tape the attachment piece to my efile and the hose to my vac, because it is made for a canister vac, but it works and has saved my face and eyes let alone my lungs too.

Last week my daughter called while I was filing a client so I shut off the Partigon. I started choking from the dust!!!!! I am so glad I went with the Partigon.

I've talked to a guy who deals with air quality and he made it very clear that although you might be able to get rid of some odors but air cleaners won't do much for the dust we create and the majority of the odors that acrylic will add. He said that once the particles and smells are airborne, that's that. The best thing to do is to catch them before they get airborn and with something like the Partigon you can do that.
