THE REVIEW:
We have two cats. And they shed. A LOT. We have tried all sorts of stuff to get the cat hair up. We tried those roller sticks. We tried sticky sheets (these worked okay, but we used a TON of them). So when given the opportunity to review the SC Johnson Pledge Fabric Sweeper for Pet Hair, of course I jumped at the chance.
It is really cool! And it actually works really really well! I pulled it out of the box and moved it back and forth on the sofa. Oh my goodness! I knew that we had cat hair on the sofa, but the amount that I was able to take off using the Fabric Sweeper is just incredible (I can't decide if I am excited that we got so much cat hair off the sofa, or a little concerned that there was so much there in the first place, LOL). The Fabric Sweeper picks up as much pet hair as 145 sticky sheets!
From the website:
Great for:
* Upholstered couches and chairs—so you can sit back and relax.
* Pillows and cushions—Pledge™ Fabric Sweeper is great for removing pet hair from throw pillows, couch cushions, and bed pillows.
* Car interiors—great for cleaning pet hair off upholstered car seats so you can roll down the window, without stirring up pet hair.
Directions for use:
1. Slide side-to-side on upholstered furniture using moderate pressure. Use short strokes of about 8-12 inches in each direction (as indicated by the arrows on the sweeper).
2. Fabric Sweeper is self-cleaning! As you go in one direction, one roller picks up the pet hair from the surface. When you go in the other direction, the second roller cleans off the first and pushes the pet hair inside.
3. If pet hair builds up on the rollers, repeat the side-to-side motion a few times on a clean area of the upholstery.
The best part- Sara Rose can use it. It is that easy. Seriously. My 21 month old can use it. She thought she was such a big girl helping mommy clean!
Want to try it out yourself (or have your toddler try it out)? You may be in luck!

Oh Stacy you know I got to get in on this giveaway! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and the hair is awful. They are all short hair breeds to I don't know where it all comes from, you would think they would be bald with the amount of hair I sweep up daily. I would definately love to give this product a try...the sofa, the beds, heck maybe even the carpet as the vacuum can't seem to get it all up.
Just hit me up on blogger if I win!
Oh yeah and I do have your feed...how else do you think I found this wonderful giveway....
And.....
I am now a follower on Twitter!
The first place I would use this is on my sectional in the living room. I have been trying everything to get rid of the cat hair but there it sits. This would be great!

Oh my, our Chihuahua sheds like nothing I've ever seen before. I would start on the sofa, then the lazy boy, and from there, I'd probably continue on every surface of my house.

I have two long-hair dogs. Even though we keep them cut pretty short, we still have dog hair everywhere. Since they sleep with me, I would probably use this on my blanket more than anywhere else. However, there is not one area in my home that is dog hair free.

Two cats: one sheds black, the other sheds white. Where will I use this? Everywhere but especially on my beige sofa
My dog sheds a LOT. I would use it on the sofa and my bed
I would definitely use the fabric sweeper on our dark brown couch and on the bed where our cat sleeps. These things are always covered in fur! parvax at aol dot com
With 3 cats and 1 dog, my whole house, frankly, could use this!
orchestratenoise0726[at]yahoo[dot]com
i'd use it mostly on the couch where my dog does most of his shedding unfortunately
I have a dog who sheds short hairs all over and it drives me crazy! I would definately use it on our couches!

I would use this on my living room sofa. ALthough I try to keep the cats off, the minute we aren't looking they get on there. It's an never-ending battle.
My cat is spoiled and has his own chair. That is the main place I'd use it. The other place is on my bed when he sleeps there.

My dog Bella sheds like there's no tomorrow, so I could sure use some help in this area and I would start with the living room couch.
I would use this everywhere our black cat Shadow decides to nap (which seems like every couch and chair in the house.) I really want to try this. I've been looking for something to help with my cats shedding and this sounds like a really great product.
Thanks so much for offering this giveaway.

I don't have to think long to figure out where I would use this. I have two cats and one very hairy dog! I could brush her daily and she would still shed everywhere I think. She loves to be on the couch when we are not looking and today when my husband and I went to the dr. I was mortified to see that my husbands shirt was covered in dog hair from sitting on the couch.

In my CAR. My dog's hair is permanently embedded in the back seat.
I have a cloth ottoman that my 3 cats like to sit on, so you can imagine the cat hair that piles up on that!
I wonder how well this will really work. I need my living room furniture cleaned almost daily because of my cats.
I have two doggies who love to camp under the kitchen table on top of a very pretty square rug. One of them, who looks like a miniature German Shepherd, sheds his long silky hair every day of his life. I love him, but the hair is a problem. Help us, please...send us the cleaner that will do the job!
With 2 cats and 2 dogs (1 white, 1 black, 1 gray, 1 brown) ~ I could use this pretty much everywhere. I especially would love this for my pillows and my couches.

I would use it on EVERY piece of furniture that my cat feels is fair game for him to shed on!

I would use it everywhere. Thanks for the chance to win.

We have a brown couch, a long hair chihuahua, and a cat we adopted (the cat is four times bigger than the dog). That couch is used the most by pets and humans in the house, so I'd use the prize there first.
harmonden[at]wowway[dot]com
I guess the better question would be where WOULDN'T I use it! Most often though I would probably use it on my hoodies. They are the worst for picking up hair, because I am so often packing around a dog, a cavy or a rabbit! wgbc1446@yahoo.com
I'd use it everywhere because my cat has the run of the house.
I could so use this almost everywhere in our house -- we have three cats and a dog who all shed -- sigh.

I would use this in my living room because my dog jumps all over our couch!
this would get use in so many places, but the main place is the couch...its the meeting grounds where all my animals seem to come and sleep

on the couch, where our dog is Not supposed to be
I'd like to use it on our living room carpet it seems always have dog hairs on it no matter how much I sweep it. Thanks!!
I have 7 cats and a dog - I will use it all over my house.
I have 2 dogs inside so I would use it in the living room
I have a new microfiber sofa set. It's good against stains, not so good against the cat hair. That's where I would use it.
You have two cats, you say? Amateur! We have eight cats. I would use the Fabric Sweeper for Fur in every room in the house and on my person. I might even try it on a cat or two, to save steps.
I have two cats and fur is everywhere. I understand shedding in the summer, but year around?? The first place I would try this would my coat! Yep, it is always covered with noticeable fur. Then the couch and chairs. Then...oh, you probably don't want to hear my whole vision with this product. Hey, I like the idea above...try it on the cats. Could that work? I've already vetoed the idea that crossed my mind last week - shave the cats. (Its too cold.)
I would love to win this. The pet hair in my house is terrible.
I probably don't want to know how much hair is lurking on the sofa alone - but that's the first place I'd try this out.
You're in my Technorati favs!
I would use it on my sofa!
I need this for the couch where my cats hang out.
I would use it on all of my cloth covered furniture in the living room. Cats love to nap on them!

I'd use it on my sofa.
My long-hair cat, GiGi, loves to sleep on my recliner. This is where I'd use it first. Thanks for the contest.
We could definitely use one of these! Our dog's hair manages to work its way into everything.
I would use this on the sofa, and on the car upholstery... I wonder if it works well on clothes too (especially my nice black coat which somehow got covered in dog hair!)
This would be great for my couch since my dog thinks he owns the couch. Thanks!

I have a long haired cat who thinks that wherever I am she has to be there too. I would use the Fabric Sweeper on the couch because after I sit there and then stand up I have so much cat hair on me I might as well be wearing a fur coat.
I have 6 dogs 3 cats and we would use it on our couches and recliners
I favorited you on technorati
In my bedrooms on my couch. With 2 dogs and a cat, ours is a hariy house
The living room (or, more accurately, the playground). The sofa, recliner and ottoman are all hair/dander magnets from our three puppies. And if we don't stay ahead of the build-up, it's like tumbleweeds in a dust storm. ;)

I am not sure how this works, but I would love to win one of these. I live in a rural area with not even a Wal-Mart within 30 miles. I would use this product on my comforter. I have two cats and 1 who is not sick, still sheds a lot. The vet can't find a reason for this. I work at night and am tired when it is finally time to roll into bed, but many times, I have to drag out the vacuum and vacuum the bed before I want to sleep in it. You can reach me at millywestman@gtcom.net
