FurZapper Pet Hair Remover for Laundry 2 Pack - Reusable Dog Cat Hair Remover Tool As Seen on

This product works really well, but there are some subtleties to keep in mind. I should mention that I rarely write reviews, but I thought some people might benefit from this, so here it goes. I have one cat, no other pets.. two person household and the cat lays everywhere, including on us. Very floofy long haired cat. I bought a two pack of furzappers about 8 months ago and I found two were pretty ineffective, so I bought another two pack right away and use 4 total in each washcycle and dry cycle. I found these work very well, when used "properly". Some thing to note: 1) When you use in the washcycle, place these on top of your clothes so they work "top to bottom" in the cycle. If you drop them in the bottom of the washer and place clothes on top, they are less effective. 2) You need to rinse off all hair and lint from these after each use. I do this after a wash cycle and after a dry cycle. Again, for best results. 3) When you place these in the dryer, it is SO Important to not toss them in first, up against the dryer drum. Place 1/2 your clothes in first, then the furzappers... then more clothes to cover them. They work better this way. 4) Do not use fabric softener, dryer sheets or wool dry balls with furzappers. Wool dry balls render them pointless. Note: the furzappers WILL stick to the sides of your dryer. They are still effective that way but are much more effective when they are being tossed around with the clothes. They remove much more fur and lint that way. You will see this yourself. If you hang dry clothes you can still use furzappers! When your clothes are mostly dry (best to have just a tiny small amount of moisture remaining) just place them in the dryer on the Airpuff (no heat) setting and they do a very good job of removing leftover fur/hair. I should also mention, they work better on some types of fabrics than on others. I have seen some cotton shirts that just don't get the same results as other cotton shirts... quite odd. But then again, every shirt is different. I bought another set of two furzappers (now, 6 total) and use them for all my clothes. This is the best method or removing fur.. again, nothing is perfect but these are quite good. I gave 5 stars, but it's more like a 4.5... Certainly the best option available for removing fur but they are not magic fix all that petlovers will hope for. Best of luck! Read more

To say this product is useless is to acknowledge that it’s a product with an intended purpose. I can’t even bring myself to that. I used exactly as directed. Didn’t use fabric softener. I even used two in the wash just to make sure they collected as much hair as possible. I have two cats and I occasionally dog-sit a Bernese Mountain dog. My cats shed a normal amount, nothing excessive but enough to stick to clothes. In the washes I did with only cat hair clothes, I noticed no difference whatsoever in the amount of hair on the clothing. I also didn’t observe hair collected on either of these paw-shaped paperweights. Same thing in the dryer. No difference in amount of hair on clothing, no hair stuck to either paw. I thought maybe there wasn’t enough pet hair on my clothes for these little suckers to really shine and do their job. So I used them again, but this time in a load of laundry that had the dog hair on it. Anyone with a Bernese mountain dog knows they shed enough hair to make your very own Bernese mountain area rug. Results were the same. I had the same amount of hair on the clothing as if I hadn’t used these. Both paws came out of the washer and dryer clean and hair free- that is to say, the hair was still stuck to my clothing. Now, this would be wonderful if I was trying to clean the paws and not the clothes, but highly ineffective if the sole purpose of the paws was to collect hair. Aside from the money I wasted on these, I’m slightly annoyed that I had to skip the fabric softener for those loads of laundry since these paws don’t play nice with fabric softener. Sometimes I still throw the paws in the wash as a little joke just to see if they’ll wake up and serve their intended purpose. I’ve tried every combination of hot and cold water, very hairy to barely hairy loads of laundry. But alas, the joke is always on me because they haven’t worked once. You too can play this little game if you want to roll the dice and spend your money. Just know that the paws will always win and stare back at you mockingly when they emerge the washer and dryer completely hair free. Read more
