Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First off, I really wanted to give this product 5 stars, but there's one big reason I can't. Once the little container on the back is full, it's meant to be tossed. In my house - it lasted about 2 minutes and would end up costing us a fortune. However, with a little creativity you can make this product re-usable.
Had Pledge done that originally, and even sold it for twice the price, it would be a 5 star product. I agree with the prior review that there is NO reason they couldn't have done that. But yes, the product does say not to attempt to disassemble in any way.
This product worked wonderfully. Once I figured out how to empty and re-use it, it saved me HOURS of vacuuming furniture. I have a very large dog that is free to roam our home and sheds constantly. I used the product on many types of fabrics including a corduroy couch, microfiber/microsuede couch, pillows, cotton comforters, etc. It worked like a charm and was practically effortless.
The clear plastic container area on the back filled up in about 2 minutes. It is "riveted" on and cannot be removed. At the point it is full it's meant to be tossed. Not worth the $5 price for 2 minutes of work. However, I very carefully popped off one end of one of the rollers and was able to empty the container and then re-use the product. That could easily wear down or break the fasteners so in the end, to save time and money, we cut a U-shaped slit in the top of the clear plastic area and can open and close it to empty it and re-use. It took some manipulating to make sure the edges weren't sharp, but we made it work.
I really do think functionally this is a 5 star product but couldn't give it such for the mere fact that it's meant to be a throw away, and not re-used.
