Works very well as a buffer March 4, 2010
NA in L.A. (Los Angeles)
I obsessively polish and shine my shoes and have tried several different methods and tools (buffing attachments on rotary tools, drills and grinders among others) to obtain the perfect buff. This product is quite simple and works very well for buffing. As for the polishing brushes, I prefer manually brushing my shoes with traditional horse hair brushes. The ones that come with presto appear to be synthetic. I did try them out on a pair but I was not impressed with the brushing result. However as mentioned, for buffing, it's worth every penny, I specifically bought it for buffing! I like the fact that it is a plug in model so the power is consistent and I don't have to worry about weak batteries.
I love it, just get couple of proper shoe brushes and it will become an indispensable tool.
 A Blender with 1 Turbo Speed... 1/10 - Dont Purchase without reading this review! February 20, 2010
Kraig Bailey (Ketchikan, Alaska)
PLEASE... save your money. This product seems promising and seems like it would save you time and energy to shine your shoes - but in truth, it will not.
The "Polish Applicators" are cheap! Mine broke within the first few wipes I put onto my boots (Bates combat boots) - I was hoping for a "spit shine" appearance only to find that it removed the previous layers of polish setting me back countless hours that I have already put into them to make them "game ready"
The Buffers have, what appears to be the same prong connection type to the buffer as a blender or mixer - and that is basically what you are getting.. a crazy blender to put to your boots. It moved far too fast to have any successful use for the polish on your boots. Also, it spits white cotton everywhere from the Buffer which is cheap and falls apart as well.
I had a terrible experience with this product and feel compelled to inform you that if you want a high gloss spit shine appearance to your boots, you have no other choice but to DO IT BY HAND!
This product needs to be 10x smaller, more user friendly, and have a variety of speeds at which the buffer can rotate (actually allowing the polish to adhere to the boot. As it stands, you put a blender to your boots and "go wild" - with no positive results. Thank you for reading my review. (this is no reflection of the seller: Amazon which provide great customer service and delivers products at great prices)

There were many favorable reviews, but I was still a little skeptical. How good can something for $25 be when it has a motor and cord? Well let me tell you this unit is everything as promised and more! Polishing shoes by hand was a real chore and the only part I used to get well polished in appearance was the toe where I could get a good buffing action with a strip of cloth across it while stepping on a stair. It was just too awkward to get a good polishing action on the sides of the shoe the way they can at a shoe-shine stand with your shoe up on a raised step. With the power buffer now I easily polish the entire shoe. A tip I didn't see mentioned; with the buffing bristles you use the side of the wheel, and you'll get much better control if you turn the shoe on its side when doing the toe section then if you try to control the pressure by leaving the shoe flat and holding the unit at 90 degrees.
The only suggestion I have is for the packaging. The unit comes with a nice base to hold everything as you see in the picture. It would have been nice if the box they sell it in opened from the end instead of the top (like a shoe box does) so that after use it could be slid back in and stacked on a shelf.
does a great job, but December 24, 2009
James H. St Martin
it really does a good job but wish it's size was smaller. It does beat shining shoes by hand and spraying a little water gives a good spit shine. It's a lot better than the floor buffers and doesn't take any time to put a good shine on the shoes.
