5.0 out of 5 stars Oster Rake - terrific tool, July 6, 2009

This tool wins over the Furminator hands down. It is much more effective at PULLING out the dead undercoat, rather than the Furminators action of TEARING/CUTTING out the undercoat...AND a lot of top coat to boot. The Oster Rake is a much better tool for removing just the unwanted undercoat. It's gentle on the skin, comfortable for the dog, and very effective and removing the unwanted undercoat and leaving the top coat alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dog rake is incredible., October 12, 2008

This dog rake is incredible! It does not pull the hair and gets ALL of the undergrowth without stress to the dog.
Be prepared to get covered with hair the first several times you use it (maybe use it outside). The hair justs comes off and leaves the coat silky and smooth. I looked at other websites for this item and it was twice as much.
I plan on sharing this info with lots of friends with dogs
so they can benefit from this wonderful product. It was
suggested by a dog groomer friend of mine and after trying hers I ordered one as soon as possible.

This review is from: Oster Professional Pet Grooming Undercoat Rake, 18 Teeth Wide, Coarse (Misc.)

After having been raked with this marvelous undercoat rake, my golden retriever looks a lot better. She looks better, feels better, and obviously enjoys the experience. Or is it the dog bone she gets after? The Oster undercoat rake really took out a lot of hair, including some nasty looking tail hair.

They ought to include a hex wrench that will fit the handle, though. It loosens easily and is positioned so I can't get at it with a standard hex wrench. IKEA hands out hex allen wrenches with their furniture, Oster should do the same with their rakes. Also, the teeth loosen independently and get out of line. I can see that it would be easy to take this apart for cleaning (if necessary?) but it feels a little bit like it will fall apart in the meantime.
