Typically, a great product I donât know what happened? Great customer service
I have purchased several of these through the years for my gliders. They work great. Until this one. The Sandy portion immediately came loose from the track, allowing urine and feces to get underneath it and the whole thing has now come loose and stinks to high heaven. Iâve contacted the seller for direction. Prior to this the product has been very solid and holds up for years.* update: I reached out to exotic nutrition with my problem. They are shipping out another free of charge. I will update this review based on how this second one works out.

It works
Skeptical when it arrived in a small package and rolled up but once installed it worked great at filing down my sugar gliders nails. One spot on it looked like the sand paper was coming up.

Trimmed toe nails 🙂
This is GREAT. Trimmed the rats toe nails wonderfully. No more scratches.A+++ Highly recommend!!!Yes the whole set up is a bit pricey. Iâm happy I spent the extra money. Plus itâs quite, almost no noise at all. Kinda a whirring noise.

Too rough for the paws
I finally got ready to put this item on my rat’s wheel and it was then that I felt the center “traction” belt. It is far too rough for my rats’ little paws. I would have returned it, but I’m past the return time, so the seller has had no chance to make it good with a refund–I’m sure the seller would have had no problem taking it back. I find it hard to imagine the callused paws of something small enough for the rat-sized wheel benefitting from something so rough.

Works as intended, but…
This item worked well to replace the track I had before, and I don’t mind that it was a small package upon delivery – it’s just the replacement track. However, when it was rolled up to be shipped, the sandy part was on the outside and did crack in at least one spot. Time will tell if the gliders are able to pull it loose. Having it rolled like that made it harder to install than it should have been. It also did not come with the clear end-to-end clip that you get from buying the full wheel. Good thing my original was in tact. Four stars is not for the item performance (it works as intended, so that part gets 5 stars), but for how it’s packed and the missing end-to-end clip.

Works for Rats!
I don’t normally write reviews, but I certainly read them when trying to make a decision. I took a gamble when purchasing this product because no one had written whether they used the Sandy Track for their pet rats. I wasn’t sure this thing would be just the right amount of abrasive so it only “filed” nails rather than wearing down paw pads and increasing the risk for bumble foot. I waited a month and a half of letting my rats enthusiastically use it and inspected their paws every night before bed. I have declared it safe now. It was a risk well-rewarded.I was starting to get allergic reactions to the scratches left by my rats when they climb my bare skin. Now I don’t worry about it anymore because this addition to their wheel files their nails just enough to where they don’t leave any visible scratching on my sensitive skin. I’d recommend this product to anyone suffering a similar condition.

Easy to put in :o)
Just got this for my rat boys, I haven’t put it in the cage just yet but it isn’t too hard to put in! It goes in that little outer ridge on the base of your wheel, use the little clear clip thing to apply it, put the lid on .Update: my boys don’t use their wheel very often anyways, but they don’t seem to have a problem w it! It’s starting to work on trimming their nails 🙂

Don’t use this with a silent Runner it will not work very well
I would have love to give this 5 stars because I don’t use it with the silent Runner I use it with the mesh stealth wheel on the outside for my sugar gliders if it was designed for that definitely 5 stars but if you use it with the silent Runner I could see that making all the critters feet extremely Raw

Product came with its sanding strip glued to external side inside of internal: literally it’s convolute tight with sanding part outside. Tried to make it right – but impossible without damaging the sanding strip.

Waste of money, most expensive sandpaper i have ever bought.Didnt fit wheel. Had to throw it away.
Laila –
Not worth the price, it was folded badly that it won’t fit into the wheel smoothly
Brittney –
It doest stay on the wheel and i cut so it is not 1 piece that fits in the wheel nicely. Would not reccommended for your hedgie too coarse.
