LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!! I love mine, and despite what it says on the package, I have no problem sticking my fingers between the rollers to pull out the hair so I can reuse it. I have dark brown couches and it gets Chestnuts fine, white/light gray hair off in no time!
I just bought a 3-pack at BJ's (with coupons of course) for the holidays. It's wonderful! I LOVE using it on the bed after the kitties slept there all day. Not so great on runners but awesome on the couch, bed, and body

Here is a video demo

And here is a site that shows you how to alter one so that you can empty it and reuse it.
Personally I don't buy things that are one or two time uses and then have to throw out. Especially things as big as that sweeper thing. That certainly isn't going to decomp in a landfill site, not like a cloth or paper towel!

If you have small fingers you can pull the fur out and reuse it.
Isn't it 145 sheets?
I really want to try one but I don't really have anything to use it on.
works okay on taut/flat surfaces.
less so on curved surfaces and even less so on tufted surfaces
(just my opinion)

I didn't realise it was single use, I assumed there were refills. It really annoys me when companies come out with stuff like this these days, they should know better! I checked out the step-by-step on how to make it reusuable, and it doesn't look too hard. Good project for hubby.
I don't even think thats necessary, the space between the two rollers is big enough to get your fingers into to clean it out, and I wear a size 9.5 ring on my ring finger, so its not like I have small fingers either. We kept our first one for over about a year, with daily use, before replacing it.Originally Posted by pushylady
