Medicool TurboFile Pro vs MelodySusie SC320F Rechargeable Nail Drill
Which should you buy? Our verdict on both, pulled from our full The Best Electric Nail Drills: 6 Compared (and One to Skip) comparison.
The Medicool TurboFile Pro earns the top spot by publishing what others leave out: 30,000 RPM, 2.0 Ncm of torque, forward and reverse, and handpiece weight, all in a mid-range desktop unit. The MelodySusie SC320F gives up the cord and the torque figure in exchange for a budget-tier rechargeable design with stepless speed.
Medicool TurboFile Pro
Buy itA corded 30,000 RPM desktop e-file with a published 2.0 Ncm torque rating and a light handpiece.
- Medicool prints the numbers buyers need: 30,000 RPM, 2.0 Ncm of torque, variable speed, and forward and reverse.
- The handpiece weighs 3.8 oz on the product page and 4.0 oz on Medicool's comparison chart, either way among the lighter ones here.
- It has a built-in handpiece cradle and digital RPM display, and it accepts all 3/32 bits.
- It runs from the mains with no battery, so it stays on a table near an outlet.
- Only one diamond bit and one mandrel bit are included, so sanding bands and any other bits are an extra purchase.
- There is no foot pedal, so speed changes happen at the dial on the control unit.
MelodySusie SC320F Rechargeable Nail Drill
Buy itA budget-tier rechargeable 30,000 RPM drill with stepless speed, a 4000mAh battery and several kit options.
- MelodySusie's spec panel lists 30,000 RPM, stepless speed and a 4000mAh battery rated for 8 to 12 hours.
- The control box runs without a wall outlet and the set comes in several kits, including a Beginner Kit and a Dust-Free Kit.
- The maker's usage guide includes a step for changing rotation direction, and the display shows the current direction.
- No torque figure appears in the product text or spec panel.
- Handpiece weight and bit shank size are not stated in the product text we could read.
- The handpiece stays cabled to the rechargeable box, so cordless here means no wall outlet, not no cable.
