Product Description

Amazon.com

While a lint brush works wonders on some clothing, it won’t remove the fuzz and pills that build up on sweaters, upholstery, drapes, and other nubby materials. This handy battery-powered device uses precision blades to refresh the look of fabrics by removing threads, fuzz, and pills, catching them in a clear chamber that easily empties for cleaning. A round foil cap keeps the blades safely away from fingers while the shaver is stroked over the fabric, and a plastic cover protects the foil during storage. Perfect for travel, or carrying from room to room for drapes and furniture, the lightweight fabric shaver requires one C battery (not included). Remington covers the device with a one-year warranty against defects.--Ann Bieri

This is one of those things that I didnt know I needed until I had it. Basicly, it removes the fuzz and *pilling* from clothing. I have found it especially helpful on knits, particulary lesser quality knits which seem to pill a lot.

When I started using this I was surprised to see my clothes looking more like they did when they were new. A great thing considering the cost of this!

I use it most on cotton knot pants and tight wave knit sweaters (loose knits may get caught in the mechanism). I have used it on a sofa on areas of wear, a blanket, a towel (bad idea..it sucked in the terry piles), and several clothing items I thought were *gonners* only to find they looked almost good as new.

With that being said, it is not a bad little gadget to have handy. I had a very particular item of clothing in mind when I ordered this from Amazon, and although it took quite some time and needless to say, patience, the little bugger worked "ok".

Yes it feels cheap, yes it required plenty of "cleaning" as it gets jammed easily and as I mentioned before, you'll need your fair share of elbow grease.

I have used it 3 times thus far and it still works. I don't plan on beating the life out of it, so I think it will have a "to be expected" life expectancy around my household.

I love this little gadgit! I had one for 10 years that I bought from a local Remington store (now closed), the screen just now has worn out, the motor is still strong. I was so excited to see it on Amazon.com! It works better than anything I have tried to get fuzzies' off clothes and its fun to use!
