I had high hopes for this thing. My dog is a Jack Russell Terrier and she tends to shed a lot of her short hair all over the sofa, clothes and carpet. So, I bought this in hopes to prevent as much hair going all over the place. I didn't expect it to solve my problem 100%, but I had hoped it would help even 50%. As I used it, it didn't seem to grab any hair. It only worked as a brush for my dog. I have tried several ways of using it and different positions in hopes of it grabbing more hair to no avail. I am a little disappointed that I did not experience what everyone else has, which makes me think maybe there is a trick to it that I do not know?
