Pet Hair No More! Plus a Giveaway!
February 13, 2009 by Caryn
This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is glfrog63. Congratulations!
I love our little Niko! But…our soft, fluffy Maltese Terrier mix sheds like crazy. His hair is everywhere and it’s annoying. I’ve found it everywhere…even in my food! One of the places where dog hair seems to accumulate most is on the furniture. Vacuuming never works….ever! Apart from taking some tape and removing it myself, old-school style, it’s not going to happen.
What I (and you pet owners) need is the Pledge Fabric Sweeper for Pet Hair. The Fabric Sweeper “quickly and effectively removes pet hair from upholstered furniture.” Pledge has been around a really long time and it’s a brand that I know and trust.
So how does it work? The Fabric Sweeper comes assembled and all you do is take it out of the box, identify the source of the pet hair, and slide it side to side in short strokes. It has two rollers that rotate back and forth to lift and trap pet hair. I’ve never used sticky roller sheets, but for comparison, one Fabric Sweeper picks up as much pet hair as 145 sticky roller sheets.
I actually really enjoyed using the product. As a mom, I’m all about simple, effective solutions. The Fabric Sweeper is easy to use and I like that all the hair is contained in the plastic chamber. It’s clear, which means you can visually see the hair being lifted off your couch. It’s also disposable. Once it’s full, simply toss it. The Fabric Sweeper has a built-in system to clean itself so you don’t have to worry about putting hair all over the place when using it on multiple surfaces. For a list of surfaces that may not be appropriate for the Fabric Sweeper, check out their website.
The Pledge Fabric Sweeper retails for approximately $5.99 and is available anywhere cleaning products are sold.

i learned that 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.
I found out that I can use it on microfiber and suede. Thanks for the chance.

Oh my goodness! Something I learned was that it can be used on car interiors — I hadn’t even thought of that … every trip to the vet leaves me with another supply of unwanted pet hair. I could sure use this.
With our Australian Shepherd Esther living in the house, we find hair on everything. But we love Esther and won’t throw her out . So I buy every product that promises to remove hair. This looks like a good one.
i’d love to try this!
You don’t throw it away, but can use it many times.
kitty hair can sometimes be worse than doggies’
I read that Fabric Sweeper is also great for car interiors. We love to take the dog in the car, but she does leave a lot of hair behind on the seats.
Thanks for the review and giveaway!

Pledge Revitalizing Oil with Natural Orange Oil would be great for my wood furniture.

I learned I could use their clean and shine products on my leather sofa, loveseat and chair.
1 Black Lab + 1 multicolored beagle + 1 multicolored Blue Heeler + 1 black kitty = lots of animal hair on our couch.

I learned that one Pledge™ Fabric Sweeper picks up as much pet hair as 145 sticky roller sheets.
I love the Pledge® Multi Surface Spray & Wipes because they’re great for a variety of cleaning tasks and I don’t have to have so many cleaners!
I learned that it can be used on car upholstery, but not vinyl or leather.
I learned something I had not know. Vacuum cleaners are not designed to pick up pet hair. If you use the sticky sheets you can go through them too quickly, therefore becoming an expensive item to keep purchasing.
I learned that you can get coupons on the site
I love that it works on your car interior. My car really needs that!
Thanks for entering me! Great Contest!

I don’t get it…the Pledge Fabric Sweeper is just as wasteful as the lint rollers because in the end you still though away a big chuck of plastic. Better solutions would be a wet-rubber glove or a Fur-Zoff. A Fur-Zoff costs only $9.99 and lasts forever. http://www.furoff.net If you want to be green and save money try a furzoff. Pledge should have made this product reusable.
Hi Kelly
You make a really good point that I had not thought about. I really do try to purchase eco-friendly products and I want to thank you for your recommendation. I will look into the Fur Zoff and try harder to keep the environment in mind when reviewing and recommending products. I do focus on trying to recommend eco-friendly products but sometimes there just isn’t an eco-friendly alternative available or I don’t yet know about an eco-friendly alternative. I truly value your input!

I learned that there are coupons on the pledge site—thanks.
good for Car interiors-we have 2 black labs that love to ride in my husbands truck
Thanks for the feedback Caryn. I know it’s hard to use eco-friendly products all the time, I can’t say that I do. Even so, there are other ways to remove pet hair with out having to purchase a pledge fabric sweeper once every 2 weeks, even though it works great. I am just trying to help pet owners out, save them some money. Definitely look in to a Fur-Zoff http://furzoff.net as I think you will like it.
Thanks for the blogging Caryn!
It picks up as much pet hair as 145 sticky rollers! YIKES – we need this, because we go through those rollers like they’re toilet paper!!!
I learned that Pledge has many products in their line. I did not know they had so many. I have 2 cats and this seems just like what we need.
I like the Pledge Dry cloths, Ive used them and have zero complaints.

I have used Pledge for years – something I learned from Mom. I haven’t tried the multi surface wipes or spray but I really would like to try them out. They clean and polish at the same time – save me a lot of work. How nice to clean everything with just one product – then I could eliminate many bottles of cleaners out from under my cabinet! Thank you for the opportunity to win!
I learned If pet hair builds up on the rollers, repeat the side-to-side motion a few times on a clean area of the upholstery.Very nice
