Pros: Easy & works great on most fabrics - you can re-use it! Don't tell Pledge!
Cons: We've found one fabric it doesn't work well on, but nothing else does either.
The Bottom Line: The SC Johnson/Pledge Fabric Sweeper for Pet Hair does a great job! It's easy and you can re-use it after it is full (but Pledge won't tell you that)
wmcot's Full Review: S. C. Johnson & Son SC Johnson Pledge Fabric Sweep...
Our family has a tabby cat that sheds like crazy. It is a pain following her around with those "sticky roller" pet hair pick-ups that use a masking tape-like material that you have to peel off every few minutes. So naturally, when we found a coupon for the SC Johnson Pledge Fabric Pet Hair Sweeper, we had to give it a try.
The Pledge Pet Hair Sweeper does a great job of quickly removing the cat hair from most material. On top of that, it is easy enough to use for a few minutes a day to keep pet hair under control. You will find that a little experimenting will show you how to remove the pet hair - sometimes short, quick strokes - sometimes long smooth strokes. The pet hair is swept up and deposited in a clear chamber in the middle of the sweeper so you can see when it is full.
Here is the secret! SC Johnson probably won't like it, though! The sweeper is designed with the clear chamber to show you that it is full of hair and you should throw it away and buy another one. However, my wife found that ours filled up very quickly. She also found that if you hold the nozzle of our vacuum cleaner up to the brushes (there is a little gap) that the pet hair is sucked out of the sweeper and into the vacuum. PRESTO - A CLEAN SWEEPER AGAIN! You can reuse it instead of throwing it in the trash. This will save a ton of MONEY!!
I do expect that you will eventually have to replace the sweeper as the brushes or rollers wear out, but it won't be as often as SC Johnson wants you to. You'll be helping the environment, too, by keeping trash out of the local landfill.
Overall, I would rate the Pledge Pet Hair Sweeper VERY highly! It works great on our bedspread (one of our cat's favorite sleeping places.) That save us a lot in trips to the cleaners.
The only place that it doesn't work too well is on one of our chairs that has a sort of rough "burlap-like" upholstery. The hairs tend to embed themselves in the material and are hard to get out no matter what method we use.
