Black Pet Hair Roller

I have always had at least one dog and I'm used to coping with some dog hair, but I've never allowed dogs on the furniture and I also think that my dogs all had hair that was fairly easy to remove. Fast forward to 2012, and I am in a second marriage with 3 kids. The last "not on furniture" dog died and we got a new dog named Zara. Hubs grew up in a house that allowed dogs on the furniture so when we saw that that Zara was able to jump on the furniture we had to make a decision. We did it the good ol' American way and put it to a vote. Hubs and all three girls voted to let the dog on the furniture, much to my dismay. Worse, Zara's hair is like nothing I've seen before... once it gets onto cloth, most of the time it clings to the point that the hairs have to be pulled out individually. Vacuuming, tape-style lint rollers, a Gleener depiller, velcro balls in the washer/dryer, Bounce pet hair dryer sheets ... they all leave a lot behind. Fast forward to 2020 and not only am I at my wits' end with the dog hair, but all three kids are grown women and none of us likes that we can't sit on the furniture without having to get out a hand-held vacuum and vacuum the dog hair off the back of each others' pants. Fast forward one last time to last week when I finally decided to get this Chom Chom gadget. I am ASTOUNDED at how well it works. I think the secret is with the little squeegee on the roller. I've tried using a squeegee on carpet before and it really does work, but it is unwieldy, cannot easily be done in more than one direction, and it must be done with a vacuum nearby to gather whatever gets pulled up. Also, then the squeegee ends up with pet hair on it so it needs to be cleaned before it gets put back into service for cleaning glass. With the Chom Chom, you get the benefit of the squeegee, but since it is on the roller, it is easier to do back/forth strokes. And then as for how the dog hair gets off the roller and into the hair collection chamber... maybe it is sorcery? I have no idea how that works but IT DOES!! In full honesty, I still have to do extra strokes to get all of Zara's hair (it gets our other dog's "easy hair" on the first swipe), but the amount that the Chom Chom picks up relative to the number of passes I have to make over the fabric is unbelievable! Once the chamber is full, I use a handheld vac to remove the hair and then it is ready to go again! The only downsides that I can see are: - Some dog hair gets trapped in the side hinges of the door to the collection chamber and has to be pulled out with the fingers. It is possible that if I cleaned it before it got SO FULL, that problem would go away, but we just have SO MUCH dog hair and the gadget is so effective that I would be emptying every couple of minutes. - The button to open the collection chamber door is right where I place my thumb for strength so I tend to pop it open when I am doing the actual rolling task (I seem to have this problem with a lot of products that have a button in the center, so that might be a "me" problem.) - The chom chom is 7.5" wide which is excellent for cleaning furniture, but a narrower version would be better for clothing, especially when the dog hair gets on the clothes while they're being worn and it would be impractical to remove the clothes (e.g., if you get dog hair on your black pants when you ride in your co-worker's car to lunch during the workday.) BOTTOM LINE: I have had this little gadget for less than a week and have already recommended it to several people and wrote this review while I was looking to see if they had a narrower model for my car/office/coat closet. I wish I had owned this years ago, and I would 100% buy it again.

It works very well. Picks up even dog hair from upholstery quickly. Easy to clean. Very good value. Does not work on the interior carpeting of a car trunk or storage area.

I rescued a tiny black kitten at eight weeks old, and while he is the joy of my life, apparently he sheds enough to knit a second cat. I have four gray microfiber barstools along a seven-foot bar in my apartment. I live alone, no kids, no food messes at the counter — so imagine my horror when I moved the stools to sweep before having company and realized they were absolutely coated in fine, tiny black hairs. My cat loves to leap up there to nap and escape the dog during zoomie time, and wow… the evidence was everywhere. I tried everything. My full-size vacuum with attachments? Nope. My handheld Black & Decker? Nothing. Packing tape? Useless. I was honestly starting to panic because I have an important home visit coming up and didn’t want anyone leaving with cat hair all over a nice outfit. I even considered replacing or reupholstering the stools. Out of desperation, I ordered the ChomChom Roller. It arrived about 20 minutes before I needed it, and I immediately put it to work. I’ll admit — after everything else failed, I was skeptical. But within minutes (less than eight for all four stools), they looked brand new. I wish I had taken before-and-after photos because the difference was unbelievable. It works like the “magic eraser” of pet hair. You roll it back and forth with a little elbow grease, and it just pulls the hair up and traps it inside. When you’re done, you press the button, empty the chamber, and there it is — all the fur you didn’t think would budge. It’s weirdly satisfying. I also tried it on my gray sofa and loveseat with the same incredible results. No sticky tape. No disposable sheets. No cords. Just simple, effective, reusable magic. If you have pets and fabric furniture, do yourself a favor and get this. Buy one for your friends while you’re at it. My home looks immaculate, my stress level dropped about ten points, and my inner neat freak is absolutely thrilled. I cannot recommend this enough.

Works well but not on every fabric. It does a great job with the ottoman that has a velvet like fabric. It also worked on the couch cover which is a heavier fabric. It struggled with the pillowcase for the couch pillows; hair was dragged across the pillow. The chomchom roller pet hair remover helps pick up some fur, reducing the amount of sticky paper rollers you have to use, but it's not as amazing as some would say, it definitely depends on the fabric. It's a decent addition to help combat the fur. Don't throw out the sticky rollers yet.

Unbelievably good! This does a fantastic job of getting up cat hair. It’s easy to use. It works on any kind of fabric. It doesn’t snag anything. Animal lovers need to get this.

I love this thing. I wish I had found it sooner, really helps in removing cat hairs off of sofas, bed covers. Besides being effective, it's easier to utilize this as compared to putting specific parts on a vacuum and removing the hair, definitely durable and effective, highly recommended

Having two Pugs, you can imagine what my couch looks like! Although it’s not as good as a vacuum, it works wonders easy to use well-made does what it’s supposed to do. I’m amazed at how much dog hair picks up. It’s my quick go to, but I don’t have time to grab the vacuum. I would definitely recommend for anyone who has pets that shed. !

Where has this been all my life?! I have a lab x staffy who sheds so much that I wonder how he isn’t bald. This just entirely got the fur off my bedding and couch in 5 minutes flat with no effort, a job that normally takes double the time with the vacuum and still leaves a lot of fur behind, or needing to go through an entire roll of a sticky lint roller. I was hesitant due to the cost, but I’m amazed it’s totally worth it. No complaints, 10 stars if I could.

Who ever invented this should get a noble peace proze from the pet comminity. It basically removes pet hair very fast.

Excellent ! J'étais sceptique et avais un peu peur d'investir au regard du prix... Mais je dois avouer que ça bat largement tous les autres outils utilisés pour retirés les poils de chats sur mes habits noirs.

This thing EATS cat hair. It's the only thing that works, time and time again. I hate using single use rollers, and sticky washable ones are annoying to clean. This one works well, it's simple, it's fast, it's effective. My only complaint is that it can be tricky to use on small/cramped areas due to the size of the roller. But that negative is completely overriden by the fact that I bought this 4 years ago and it is STILL the item I reach for to get ride of cat hair

Realmente es muy útil para auxiliarme en quitar pelos de mis perros de los sillones, inclusive de su propia cama. Y es súper fácil de limpiar.
