I’ve been thrilled about the product as I saw good reviews. My cat is shedding a lot and I really thought is gonna do “magic” but nothing is coming out of his fur, I had to use the old glove that I had to manage to brush my cat. 🥺 So I’m very disappointed. Definitely not worth the money.

Ensure to brush VERY GENTLY the metal can scratch! It does remove some hair but I'm more concerned with the static left behind! do Cats need to be feeling static electric shocks simply for being brushed? not sure why this was an an oversight when our felines well being is our main priority so this is overpriced for your cat to be left static :/

This is a harsh and quite uncomfortable experience for my (short haired) cats who otherwise enjoy being groomed. This doesn't comb out loose fur - it drags and cuts off attached fur, giving the cat a haphazard haircut. What's worse is it cuts off mostly undercoat, reducing the cat's ability to thermoregulate. Can't understand its popularity. Might be okay for long haired, badly matted cats. Otherwise, don't waste your money.

I'll begin by saying it gets a 5* because it does what it says it can do... removes alot of fur. BUT.....If you have a Maine Coon, semi/long haired or young cat like I do I would'nt bother wasting your money. This products head is so small and so the surface area you a combing is so minimal you will spend half a day getting through a long/thick haired cat... Do young cats really have the patience to let you brush them for 2-3 hours?!! In the case of my Maine Coon, the answer is NO. He barely lets me get the brush/comb into his furr for 2 minutes let alone enough time to groom him sufficiently! He doesnt like the way it looks and he eventually starts to attack it, and personally I dont blame him. Its very heavy and the metal head is quite sharp, so if hes moving around alot you need to be careful you dont wack him in the face! I've tried introducing it to him slowly and always stopping when hes had enough thinking he would eventually realise its not all bad, but after weeks of doing this still no luck.. and in the meantime of wasting all these weeks trying to introduce a BRUSH he's still coughing up hairballs and his coat is overgrowing. I would say even with a short haired cat there are bigger/more efficient brushes. Unless you have a cat who is prepared to be brushed by this tiny headed comb for awhile!

After reading the reviews I expected great things from this tool. Sadly I get better results with a roll of tape, it takes no more hair out than a regular paddle brush, my cats are still leaving hair in their path and they don't seem to like being brushed with it very much, it feels like it's quite rough on their skin. It's a well built product, but it doesn't live up to it's promises.
