It shouldn’t be this hard to use, don’t like the fabric guard
Color: Gray/Blue, Size: Large
This review is for the Best Brands listing “Farberware Large Lint Remover & Fabric Shaver Set – Battery Powered Sweater Shaver with Triple Blades and Extra Sticky Roller for Pet Hair, Fuzz & Pilling on Clothes & Furniture“.
This set contains a fabric shaver as well as a lint removal roller. The fabric shaver needs batteries, not included, and the orientation is weirdly not marked on the side that takes the batteries but instead on the outside of the battery lid, on the last surface you’d check. So even though this needed a very normal two AA batteries it was still harder to install than it needed to be. Also, emptying the lint collector is harder than it needs to be. I need to use both hands and hold the remover against my body to detach the lint container. It comes off with a “click” that does not bode well for the durability of the device.
As for using the lint remover, it does an ok job. It has a fabric guard to presumably prevent anyone creating holes in the fabric they’re cleaning and the guard can be lowered/raised slightly. However, it keeps the lint remover far enough away from the fabric you need to press pretty hard to get decent results and you can’t get as close as you need in some areas due to the bulk of the plastic guard. The handle is also a little bulky, it’s like they made the entire device larger instead of just making the shaving surface and the lint catcher larger.
The lint roller was pretty standard. I have long nails and usually struggle with detailed tasks, but I was able to get to the sticky panels without too much hassle. Although u made a bit of a mess trying to get the lint roller started, the roller was nicely sticky and lasted a little longer than some cheaper alternatives. I was able to get the sticky sheet to tear at the perforated edge easily.
I have used the shaver to clean an old wool sweater as well as a newer pair of jersey sweatpants, and the results were ok but I prefer my smaller, older lint remover for effectiveness and ease of use. The lint roller was very nice, although I sort of expected the pretty pattern to be on the entire roll not just the front cover. This set works ok, but I really don’t like the lint remover and am removing a star because it’s harder to use than it should be, including the presence of the bulky fabric guard.
