It’s very powerful for such a small device. I tried it on leggings (pilling between the legs) and they look pretty much brand new now. Get it, you won’t regret it.
does the job
always useful, frequently used, no problems for a long time.
great little gadge
emoves all the lint and fluff and rubbing bits even from the most delicate materials
op quality item
i bought this to get bobbles out of my clothes which it has and is still going strong even today.
Like it.
I needed this for my Jumpers. My jumpers were all covered in lints. So I tried this and it removed lints immediately. I bought couple of rechargeable batteries so I keep recharging them if it runs out of battery. I definitely recommend it.
So happy
Everything was great, does the job excellent. I’m happy with my purchase.
Works brilliantly
Surprised at how well it works. Revived my favourite sweaters. So pleased.
It does the trick
It takes a while but works a treat on lambswool and synthetics. Impressed.
Great produc
Very happy with this purchase. Easy to use and of good quality.
Quick and simple to use
Quick and simple to use and easy to remove the fabric
Works brilliantly!
Easy to use. Works even better than I expected. As other reviewers have said a great product, well worth the money.
Amazing!!!
This might be the best thing I have ever purchased. Was so sick of brand new clothes (even designer ones) pulling after only one or two wears. Went looking for a solution and this little gadget is it. Just check out the before and after pics to see the amazing results. I never leave reviews but couldn’t not share this little bit of magic with the world.
Easy to use. Happy with it. Would recommend it.
I’m happy with the purchase. Does what it says and it is easy to use. It helps to keep jumpers and cardigans like new.
A must have
Works wonders! So much more effective than cheap dupes you can find elsewhere.
It’s an absolute must-have to keep your clothes in good shape and looking good. 100% recommend!
Obsessed with this
Love it and worth it..saved lots of my clothes
Works better than any other device of this type
After trying out a competing device sold by a tv shopping network, this fuzz remover is ten times better. Removes fuzz easily and quickly. Very powerful and sharp blades (but safe to use).
Very good de-bobbler!
Use this on all of my winter jumpers to de-bobbler them. Works really well. Would recommend.
Amazing produc
It makes all types of fabrics to look like new
Amazing
Amazing lint remover! Brings back bobbling garments ‘like new’ – so easy to use. Well done Phillips! Great product!!
Great produc
Great product de-bobbled very easily and left clothes looking grea
What I’ve expected
The item works just great! We use it for clothes and also for our sofa bed. It will NOT ruin the fabric whatsoever. Easy to use and easy to store away. Recommend.
This is so easy to use and makes quick work of getting rid of bobbles on my clothes. I love it.
My previously old loveable comfy clothes have been refurbished , with all bobbles removed and now look like new again.
Best buy for every household
We never knew this product would be so much useful. Literally made all my sweaters, shirts and hoodies looks like brand new.
The product has helped taking out the unnecessary wool which sticks out from clothes. Makes them literally look new.
Before buying I was double minded that would that be really useful. Literally it’s the best buy. Its pretty safe to use, easy to clean and easy to use.
You can see the pictures before and after.
Great little tool
Use it daily to refresh clothes that have gone a little bobbled
easy product to use
I have been using it for awhile now. It can turn you cloth to brand new. Recommended
The best thing for bobbles!
I’m so happy with this product! All the bobbles from my jacket have gone and it looks almost new!
Pretty good
This item is pretty good. It worked when I tried it on a bobbly fleece, but you have to push it down into the fabric to get it to work and even then it doesn’t get it all.
Philips can be relied upon as usual
I needed this to remove bobbling from a coat. With so many of these products out there it was difficult to chose. I decided to go with a brand. Proved correct. It takes a little while to remove the bits but that’s probably just as well. This should be a gentle process to not damage the material. I have used it on a coat and arms of a pullover. In short it works very well. Recommended
Very effective
Bought this to replace a previous one by a different manufacturer that had stopped working. This one is better, works well.
A really efficient shaver!
The shaver removed bobbles on wool, viscose and acrylic fabrics. Easy to use. Use on flat surface like an ironing board for best results. Sturdier than most other shavers .
Really easy to use - and it works!
Really easy to use, came with batteries which is useful. Gave my coats and some jumpers a new lease of life. Wasn’t too pricey either, will def recommend to my friends.
Finally a product that does what is says on the tin!
This product is easy to use and does exactly what it is designed to do. I have revitalised a much loved sweater and coat that had gone bobbly at the cuffs. Very happy.
Everyone should have one of these!
Awesome. Makes sweatshirt type jumpers/hoodies like new. Was going to throw out a couple of my favourite hoodies as they had gone ‘bobbly’. Bought this to try and revive them. So pleased i did – they’re like new again. Been like a mad man going round my house ‘de-bobbling’ everything I can find. Plan to gift one of these to everyone I know for birthdays, Christmas etc. Get one – you won’t be disappointed!
My best purchase ever on Amazo
Brought back to life all the jumpers, cardigans, coats and trousers that I loved to wear but looked old and ‘bobbley’ It takes a while to do a whole jumper but well worth the trouble, looks like new when you’re done! Plus, saves as no need to replace those clothes! Love it!
Works Just Grea
I put this lint remover / fabric shaver through it paces over the last few weeks and it works really well. It has brought many of my fleeces, joggers and jackets back from the dead to look almost as good as new. This shaver has worked well for me so I would recommend!
100% works
Received this today It was left on the door step, Not as the company said given to costume. The saver Works well I would recommend this Philips cloths shave
Brilliant bit of ki
Probably one of my best purchases in ages.
My black winter coat had bobbles everywhere and in minutes it was looking brand new again. As a result I ended up going through my entire wardrobe to find items that needed de-bobbling!
My only gripe is that spare blades aren’t available but then again this is a simplistic device and the blades on it will likely last longer than the actual device itself.
Brilliant gadge
Love love love it! Bringing garments I had consigned to fashion history back to glorious life! I have de-fuzzed everything in sight, jumpers, socks, undies, mouldy fruit, etc.everything returned to a glorious state of shiny newness. Buy one, you won’t regret i
Incredible!
I had a few jumpers that were so bobbly that they were a bit beyond use and so bought this to sort them out. I was not disappointed. This little machine works so well and has saved me a fortune in having to replace older clothes which now look like new. Incredibly satisfying process and my friends are now all obsessed with it too.
Just righ
I read all the reviews before I bought this little machine. There was only one not so good review, which warned about holes. Take no notice of that. This little machine is excellent. It removed all those nasty bobbles from my woollens, it is light and easy to use, and equally easy to empty and clean, plus it does not make holes in your garments. Go for it.
I don't know why I didn't buy it sooner!
This fabric shaver is brilliant. I was going to throw an old garment out but after using the fabric shaver it looked brand new again. This fabric shaver is a keeper.
Fairly good
It does the job but slowly and feels flimsy for the amount paid. The supplies Philips batteries lasted a little over 5 minutes. I’m not sure how this one is better than the much cheaper alternatives
Works well
I’ve had a cheap one of these before and really had to press down on it to make it work anywhere near effectively, so was dubious as to the efficiency of this one, but all the positive reviews made me decide to give it a try. It is very good! Does just what I wanted it to do, and a previously bobbled-up top is now bobble-free and wearable again! Well worth the money.
A must have item
I am very impressed with this bobble remover. It removes bobble very fast. Put the cloth on a flat surface & use it with circular or back-forward direction and it takes off all the bobble. Cant say about batteries as using first time and done 3-4 kids pjs and still working. Fully satisfied
Good for sweaters.
Easy to use. Cleared most though not all of the bobbles on my old sweater.
Handy device
I didn’t expect all my bobbled clothes to look good until I discovered this. I have used it on few clothses ansd have no complaints. When you feel that is it’s not performing well, just open up and clear off any stuck material on the blades and you are good to go agai
Easy to use and very effective
Used this on my wool coat and it now looks brand new again!
Handy Gadge
I bought this to replace one I had for many years. Happy with it.
Great reasonable gadge
Used shavers, lint rollers etc but felt like a bunch of jumpers/coats were still showing their use and age. Bought this and am very happy!! Have shown in the picture the difference. Very embarrassed knowing I would wear the before and not even think twice! Would definitely recommend.
Small issue is how much you have to empty/clean out.
Great purchase that came with batteries
What I liked about this product is that it was simple to understand how to use it- it is also very efficient and has made my jogging bottoms much softer since it removed all the bobbles from them. It makes your clothes look newer from the get go, and it is also fun to use (satisfying). I would highly recommend you to buy one- I thought it would not be very good for the great price, so I was surprised at how effective it is. The design is nice too, the battery covers just slide on and click into place.
Best bobble remover I've ever used!
I remember around 10 years ago buying a bobble remover from an old shop discount shop that’s long since gone, and I’ve never been able to get one as good as it. I’ve bought the JML bobble remover and it was rubbish. I bought a bobble remover from the same shop, it was rubbish. I’ve even bought a different one from Amazon and it was rubbish.
So when I seen this one, I thought Phillips are an intermediate quality brand, so I’ll give it a try. The first jumper I tried it on was my work jumper. As you can see from the pictures, it looks really old, despite only being issued to me mid January. The bobbles it has removed are from around the neck and embroidered area. Very little work in removing all that too, as one or two passes was taking all the bobbles off. Well impressed!
Well worth the money over similar cheap ones.
I’ve always found these types of lint remover a bit sketchy and time consuming, so took the good reviews on this one with a pinch of salt.
Long story short, I was wrong, this does a great job, nice and quick, easy to use and judging by the amount of fluff in its bin, quite effective.
Unlike other reviews, mine did come with batteries.
Good de-bobble
I bought this for my 83 year old mother. I checked out a few de-bobblers and Philips had the best reviews. This was not the most expensive Philiips de-bobbler, but also not the cheapest! Mum says it works really well and I liked the fact that it came with batteries. My mum is very pleased with it and recommends it. I will probably be buying one for myself now.
Brilliant!
This is ridiculously good. I haven’t owned one of these for many years because the last one was mediocre. I bought a coat from ASOS which in hindsight wasn’t worth the money as it bobbled straight away. This Philips Fabric Shaver has bought it back to look like the quality item it was pretending to be!
Mind blow
Better than I’d ever imagined
Only got it today and WOW I sell clothes as a side hustle buy in bulk and send them and this will be amazing, worked better than I’d imagined and it’s quite therapeutic!! I can buy cheaper clothes spruce then up and make more !! I did nick one jumper but trial and error and my own fault being to eager to use without reading manual .. If doubting please don’t it’s amazing
Brilliant little gadge
Was sceptical at first, but I thought I’d give it a go. It’s truly brilliant. Removed all the bobbly bits from my favourite jumpers. Excellent product. Light weight, easy to use. Love it!
Amazing
For years I have spent ages removing bobbles and pills with an old machine and also a disposable razor!
This brilliant shaver removes in minutes what would normally take me 20 minutes or more!
A couple of passes over the bobbles and they’re gone, container was full within a few minutes.
It’s not until this came did I realise how useless my old one was, it’s a no brainer – buy without hesitation.
Excellent shaver, but small hoppe
Excellent shaver. Large shaving head, seems to do a very good job. Hopper for the fabric bits is however very small.
Love it!
Ever since I have bought this, I cannot stop using it. Like most of the reviews said, I am going out of my way to find items so I can remove the bobbles
One thing to note, for thick knit items it does take a bit of time and you’ll find that you’ll have to keep repeating the process.
One downside is that it’s not chargeable via usb. You have to use batteries and of course keep replacing the batteries once ran out.
Game Changer!
I was recommended this shaver by my daughter who had been recommended by her friend. Its saved me a fortune
Easy to use, although slightly addictive so make sure you have batteries ready when the ones that come with it eventually run-out.
It has brought a new lease for life to my wardrobe, saving me a fortune with not buying new, by making old clothes look new! (See before and after photos)
I am recommended this to everyone I speak to and everyone else who’s reading this review. Hope I have helped your decision 😉
Slow but works well
I have tried several of these shavers over the years, mainly cheaper versions of this one and was keen to try this one from Philips
It feels robust and the blades are sharp and easily accessible for cleaning .
I had a knitted hooded which I love but had pilled very badly it looked old.
This little machine took off the pills quite well
I had to go over and over the jumper for a long time to remove them all and had to empty the tiny tank many times, but it coped well and I now feel I can wear the top out again.
I found going around and around in opposite way to the blades the most effective, although it probably works in any direction! I was just getting bored and experimenting!
It does have a two year guarantee so they must have faith in their product.
There were three models to choose from and apart from colour, and price, I couldn’t see any difference.
Now I’m looking for things to ‘de-pill’
Recommended
Very pleased
I couldn’t find my depiller comb so decided to treat myself to this gadget. Ooh, what fun I’ve hard since it arrived. I’ve had a go at everything. Ha, ha. Jumpers and cardis. Old garden jumpers and cardis. Armchairs. Curtains. Toys. Leggings. Now eyeing up people.
It works a treat. I think it’s starting to get a little blunt now. Hardly surprising. The Philips batteries lasted a surprisingly long time, Duracell not so long. I bought a pack of 40 by GP AA Batteries Ultra Alkaline and they have outmatched both.
I will definitely be buying this again.
Good Solid Performe
I’m at an age when I can recall these being advertised on TV and sold at Woolworths “as seen on TV”.
They haven’t really changed that much although this device certainly is much larger than I was envisaging……not a bad thing.
There’s no miracle cure for what these devices are intending to do and to properly de-bauble a jumper or top takes some dedication (in time and patience) but they do work fairly well.
So far, I’ve defuzzed a Rab fleece and a wooly jumper. You definitely need to listen to music or watch TV when your’e doing it.
There are plenty of devices to choose from and I went with the Philips brand. The price is not that much more than the unknown brands and I did so mainly thinking that the electronic components maybe better quality and offer better efficiency re the batteries required.
Best thing I've bought online since Covid-19 existed! And I've ordered A LOT.
I’m so glad I found this existed!
It literally makes my joggers and cotton t shirts look almost brand new! This product isn’t expensive at all so it has to be one of the best bargains I have ever bought!!
I’ve thrown away clothes (given to charity) just because they start to pill causing them to look old and worn. So this product saves me money!
It’s so easy to use, very easy to clean, doesn’t drain batteries quick and is small enough to easily store away.
I have got these cotton joggers that seem to pill more then other garments I have so I do need to use this product more often then ideal. However I enjoy using it! So it’s not a problem at all.
I’ve had other Philips electronic products in the past and they’ve always performed great and lasted years, so I have confidence this product will be too.
Great produc
This does reduce bobbling on jumpers and blankets. It doesn’t remove every bit of fluff but it does improve the overall look of item. It is fool proof to use when you remember to take off the little plastic lid
The clear waste tank makes it easy to see what has come off an item! It does get a little clogged up if you overfill it but otherwise this is a great little gadget.
Addictive De-pilling
Once you pop, you can’t stop!
I bought this to renew some jumpers that were still fairly new but had a lot of pilling.
It worked great, and is so addictive!
You’ll find yourself habitually de-piling every piece of textile in the house (not joking!)
Also worked great on my favourite cushion cover, which was more pill than cover.
It’s pretty quick, not heavy duty, so you have to take time to gradually reduce bad pilling. Light pilling comes off swiftly, in one go.
Only slight annoyance is the fluff catcher, which is on the small side, which you’re emptying it often, but in fairness it only takes a few seconds. Very easy to use, much better than a similar tool I had previously some time ago, although more expensive but well worth it imho.
Why didn’t I buy one years ago!!?!
Brilliant little machine that has made all my old looking jumpers look new again. It’s amazing! So good that a number of people I know have bought it after my recommendation. It’s just one of those things you need in your house, and you might not have known it. Highly recommended. I’d also say that it’s good for the environment too because it stops you throwing away clothes (though appreciate the machine is made out of plastic).
Surprisingly effective
Used to refresh beach & bath towels, pullovers and jumpers. Very effective with reasonable battery life. Would recommend.
The only (slightly) minor thing would be that the collector is a little small, but to be honest, it did not affect us significantly.
Tip: Place the fabric to “de-pill” on a hard, flat surface, and smooth it out – this will aid in effective removal of said “pills”
What you see is what you get.
It looks exactly like the pictures. It’s not perfect and you have to spend time trying to remove everything but it does the job. It’s kind of small so maybe not that easy to hold if you have big hands.
Effective to de-pill clothes
I was dubious this would work as presumed blades wouldn’t be sharp enough/get close enough to the fabric. But I was wrong. Requires some patience as best to go slow over an area to get rid of all bobbles. But so satisfying at the end. I’ve used on very pilled cashmere and wool jumpers and a synthetic, slightly ‘felt-y’ coat and it’s made them wearable again!! So ultimately a cost saver and good for the planet too 🙂 I used without the plastic guard on the head and it didn’t snag anything. My mum’s itching to borrow it but I’ve got a few more items to bring back to life in front of the tv first. Looks reasonably nice too and is a neat size. Glad I didn’t splurge on Steamery!!
Fantastic
I make clothes for the family and sometimes after washing my fleece backed jersey gets bobbly afterwards due to the fibres used in the fabric. After a couple of minutes of using this on a handmade hoodie for the toddler it now looks like new again. Fab little tool. Easy to empty and easy to use.
It is a little noisy which is the only thing I noticed.
Good
I bought this after I tried a different defizzer that near too the garment to pieces not just the fluff
This is great as it’s battery operated which I sometimes prefer than a ubs I can put it in my bag as well if I spot hair or fluff on the husband overcoat out comes the fuzzer
Easy to empty and surprise by the fluff you do actually get off
Does what it says!
Bought this to get rid of bobbling on my sofa which had been so unsightly. Couldn’t afford to buy a replacement sofa yet so tried this fabric shaver and it worked wonders!
The batteries it came with didn’t last long, so put in Duracell batteries and un-bobbled a very large sofa. I’ve taken off the throw and I’m fully enjoying my sofa again.
I thoroughly recommend this.
Knitwear loks like new
Easy-to-use product that does a great job of “shaving” bobbles from jumpers and has breathed a couple of extra years of life into several bits of my wardrobe.
It feels solidly built and comes apart easily for emptying and cleaning – with the added safety feature that the motor doesn’t work if the blades are exposed.
You do need to be fairly careful with it – I pushed a little too hard in a couple of places and ended up having to repair a few small holes. The batteries don’t last that long, but I suspect that would be the case with any of these things. The process was pretty time-consuming, but then my jumpers were in a bit of a state!
Arrived quickly, restores many garments very effectively.
It is easy to use and in most cases quickly takes effect, as in, the fabric on a garment looks instantly smoother and closer to brand new. The little shaver cache collects masses of fluff, so you know the device is doing its job. Larger garments obviously take longer to work over, you can’t rush the process but have to be patient and thorough. Also I wonder how quickly the blades lose their edge.. however at under a tenner I’d happily buy a second shaver, or refresh this product when it wears out.
Don't you love it when a gadget just works?
Having lived with an IKEA sofa with lots of fabric pilling for many months (I was warned about this at purchase) I decided to look into removing them to give the sofa a new lease of life. I’m so glad I discovered this little gadget from Philips! It’s extremely easy to use and is supplied with the required 2x AA batteries. The first time I fired it up, I could hear it working and chopping away those annoying little pills with ease! The photo shows the little ball of fabric that ends up in the bin which is very easy to remove and empty. It basically acts as a beard trimmer for fabric! But don’t worry, the blade is well guarded and you are very unlikely to hurt yourself with this. The results I achieved with my sofa are incredible and for just 15 you can’t go wrong! I definitely recommend this produc
Brillia
It is fabulous, I would have given 5 stars but the fact that I can’t recharge it is a con for me. I will probably buy rechargeable batteries but obviously it will be extra money
Brilliant bobble remove
Ordered GC026/30, the pink one, yesterday evening and it arrived this morning. Delivered securely in a box within a box containing the fabric remover, small cleaning brush and 2 X Philips batteries plus instructions but I didn’t bother with these as the operation appeared to be extremely simple. The Fabric Shaver is lightweight, easy to hold and manoeuvre and the construction looks and feels of good quality. I was eager to get started, childlike and full of expectation to see what it could do and, I wasn’t disappointed. So, I left what I was doing, grabbed a few jumpers and a lightweight hiking jacket all of which were seriously bobbled. Well they’re not now; it was like using a pencil eraser in a ‘rubbing out’ the mistakes exercise. The bobbles are no more and generally came away first time. Some were a bit more persistent so I altered my up and down movements to side to side and this worked well. My clothing has been given that ‘as new’ look, sure a touch of prior wear but who cares or would even notice? Fantastic results! The most important action, in my opinion, is to regularly empty the fabric collection container, brush off and occasionally clean up the blades inside the casing. This will ensure the little electric motor is not straining and will probably help the batteries last longer. A brilliant maintenance tool and highly recommended. I had to drag myself away because this is seriously habit forming.
Highly recommend…
I love this thing. I’ve defuzzed a couple of cardigans and debobbled hoodies. They’ve come up great, see photos to see the difference; before on the left, after on the right. I found the task quite therapeutic. It’s very easy to use. Simple slide on/off switch. I put my clothes item on the ironing board while I did it and just ran the shaver up and down the garment, a bit like cutting the grass, and emptying the little collection hopper every so often. I bought Amazon brand rechargeable batteries at the same time instead of using the disposable ones that came with it.
Easy, does the job, fantastic little necessity, value for money
Wonderful little thing, questioning why I didn’t buy this earlier (whilst patiently trimming with a pair of scissors)
Good points – easy to hold,light, found when sheering in circles it remove the pills quicker and less strain on the blades (which are pretty thin) rather than use it up/down.
Aldo small enough head to get into the rim of pockets. Sound isn’t too loud, you can hear it snipping the bobbles (which is satisfying).
Improvements- collection part could be larger, but after de-pilling all your garments the first time, the compartment size is enough for touch ups- any bigger, the device wouldn’t fit in your hand. (It filled up on an entire long knee length woolen coat). Bristled on brush included is ok, a larger softer brush would be better but that’s me being picky.
All that’s needed is an attached lint roller and perfect garment cleaner!
Brilliant tool to remove fuzz from clothes.
It works very well indeed, smoothly removing the fuzz very quickly. I tried it on a sweatshirt that was full of fuzz around the neckline and it worked like a dream. I then used it over the main part of the garment and it worked just as quick, making the garment look like new again with no trouble at all. Did several more straight afterwards. Easy to empty and made by a company you can trust.
No more bobbly jumpers
I made the mistake of buying a cheaper version to try and remove the pilling on the daughter’s fleece jacket, but it broke after a few minutes. So I decided to pay a bit more – I think this is still very reasonable price, it even comes with batteries included.
As soon as I received this I set to work on her large & very badly pilled jacket and was not disappointed. All the bobbling was removed quickly & easily, leaving her jacket looking as good as new. I’m not sure I would want to try it on more delicate materials, but for what I needed it for it was great.
Amazing - sorted my suit out!
I bought this to de-lint my suit after noticing “bobbles” had formed. I was a bit anxious about putting a device with a rotating blade near my suit, but quickly found it de-bobbled it instantly, making it look brand new again. I used it on both the jacket and trousers and will keep it handy for all clothing items from now on!
Bonus that batteries are supplied with it! 100% recommend.
I don’t get some of these negative comments! Are you sure some of you haven’t taken the cover off when using it? I wouldn’t put it past some people and then blame it on the product. I’ve used this machine on a number of different clothing items ranging in different materials (fluffy to non fluffy) and they all look virtually brand new! We were ready to throw out this ASOS coat but I went through the whole thing in minutes and I was floored at how effective it was. I’ve attached an image showing before and after results- there’s a visible difference. It’s really easy to use to. I was sceptical of it, I won’t lie but I’m impressed for what I’ve paid for it. As long as you don’t have unrealistically HIGH expectations, you’re fine! I’m pleased and would purchase again and recommend to mates tbh.
Absolutely fantastic
A fantastic little device! We had a manual fabric shaver and it doesn’t even come close to this Philips electric.
We decided to give the shaver a real challenge with an old jumper that was covered in bobbles and fluffy areas all over. We started with the protector in place but realised that the jumper needed to be used with out the cap in the end and we didn’t need to worry!
Take a look at the pictures for the results, the amount of fluff that it removed was amazing. It’s like a new jumper again. Hoping it will last a long time given I can just throw some rechargeable AA batteries i there as well (although it did come with batteries already)
Fab wee thing
This is a fab wee product makes clothes look like new with hardly any effort, it never catches the fabric or pulls it, it’s never got jammed like my last one used to. My only slight niggle is the batteries I would much rather it was usb charged.
Makes uniform look like new!
This little machine is ace! Apologies for the terrible photo but it shows you that the left side of the jumper has been debobbled and the right side is still to do. It restores clothes to a new looking state. So worth the money!
Great product!
Ordered this product for the obvious, previously I had issued with my clothes balling up, using a Razor always out holes in them! Then I seen this!
Item is very cheap for the quality, removed all balling very quickly, item looks like new again, defantly a good way to prolong the life of clothes.
Only issue I can see is how long the blade will last for, but I’ve seen you can buy replacements for cheap.
Great product but...
I bought two of these, one for myself and one as a gift for my mom. Had it for a while now and it does a very good job in removing fuzz, making clothes look new and fresh again, it’s very satisfying.
There is one flaw with it however. The compartment in the handle where all the fuzz goes is quite loose and slides off easily, sometimes in the middle of using it and the fuzz goes everywhere. I would say that’s a pretty big design flaw. Still give 4 starts, because everything else works fine.
Gives stuff a new lease of life
It does a great job! Revived older sweaters or pillow cases and they look so much better. Not it mention seeing the progress is quite satisfying. The little container is easy to remove and fluff doesn’t fly about / fall out when removing which is key.
Absolutely brillia
Turned my Dad’s gardening jumper into ‘as new’ condition. Considering I had been threatening to put it in a drawer with a very hungry family of moths (some Dads do ‘ave ’em), I would say this product is worth every penny. And so does my Dad! Considering Philips have been producing mens shavers for decades, I would say this is an excellent example of transferring your know how to another market.
Makes a real difference
Wife loves running this over her tops and jumpers and even some linen to make them looks loads better.
Battery seems to last ages.
Word of warning, don’t try it on your beard. Not even for a laugh.
De bobble
Bought this as I have a lot of cashmere which bobbles. I thought the little machine was great, it took longer than expected to remove them but slowly does it in circles and it all looks a lot better. Would purchase again. Other people said batteries didn’t last long but mine did not run out and did several cardigans. Would definitely recommend
Buy it, transforms old and tired into NEW!
I was going to turn my cushion covers into rags until I went over them with this bad boy! A good wash and de bobble with this gadget has my Eight year old cushion covers looking brand spanking new!
My Teenage daughters are also obsessed with it to keep their clothes looking fresh, even down to their socks!
It’s not just a gadget it’s a must have in our house and once you’ve tried it, I hope you’ll agree.
We actually love it so much I bought another. It’s a bargain if you consider buying new cushion covers, clothes, curtains, school uniform, basically anything fabric.
It’s also super satisfactory to use and I can’t be held responsible if you go de bobbling the shizzle out of everything. Enjoy.
Buy it! Makes everything look like new
I was very disappointed with how our expensive wool sofa had bobbled so badly with little use over a year. Feeling let down by the supplier I took a punt on buying this machine and I’m super pleased with the results. The sofa looks like new and the bobbles came off with ease! I’m now in the middle of going through my wardrobe and finding other things to de bobble. See pics of before and after the de-bobbling of the sofa
Add life
Having bought a jumper which recommended using a fabric shaver on it I purchased this. (Not that I need to use it on the new jumper, yet.) What a good little device. Straight away it improved two well loved jumpers that were bobbly. It is rather laborious, but that would be avoidable by shaving the garment little and often. I’m glad I have this as it means I can keep garments for longer reducing the need to buy new ones. Hoorah
Brilliant Little Gadge
Bought this based on other reviews to see if I could revive an icebreaker merino wool hoody which had become unwearable due to the wool pilling on the front, back, sleeves and hood. To buy another would cost 100-150 so forking out 15.99 for this little gadget was worth taking a chance on and I am so glad I did as it has removed pretty much all of the pilling and the hoody looks almost new. Probably took me the best part of 1 hour and I had to empty the lint container numerous times but not overly onerous and the result was definitely worth the time taken.
