Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This product works so well that I was getting defensive reading the negative reviews. So, I thought I should write a review that addresses some of these concerns. Pros: -Works exceptionally well at getting cat hair off low-pile rugs, upholstered chairs, and cat towers -Easy to clean out the compartment -Comes in an XL broom size so you don't have to get on your hands and knees to do the carpet -No roller paper or refills to deal with Cons: -Doesn't work on cat whiskers (my male cat sheds eyebrows and whiskers with some frequency) -Doesn't work on coarse dog hair (similar in weight to cat whiskers) -The roller wears out after about 4 months of consistent use (if cost is a concern, this is a con but some, such as myself, are more able to be satisfied with a 4 month product at $25 ergo, it is a possible pro) -Doesn't work on fabrics that are more "grabby" than the roller itself. This last con was discovered when trying to roll the interior of my trunk. It doesn't work on that coarse, durable trunk type fabric, but it did work on my car's interior. It's kind of nice to have that definitive answer as to whether it's working: I cleaned the compartment, rolled the trunk, didn't see much difference, opened the compartment - no hair. With the seats, I rolled, saw a difference, and opened the compartment to see that it was packed, literally packed, with cat hair. So, depending on your needs, this could be a 5 star life-saver or a total dud. If you're looking to roll out the Rottweiler hair from the back of your SUV with coarse upholstery, this is not your tool!
