It’s way more effective than a traditional lint roller

From the constant snuggles to the unconditional love, I adore having both a dog and a cat as pets. One thing I’m not the biggest fan of, though, is the large amount of pet hair that’s constantly on the furniture.

Although classic lint rollers help, they don’t always get everything, and with two shed-prone animals in the house, I’ve found that they run out fast. So, when I came across the Chom Chom Roller Pet Hair Remover and Reusable Lint Roller, which has earned more than 134,000 five-star ratings from Amazon shoppers, I knew I had to give it a shot. Now, I can’t believe I went so long without one.

Instead of featuring single-use pieces of sticky tape, the best-selling device has a reusable pad that captures pet hair via an electrostatic charge as it’s rolled back and forth across a surface. When it’s full, I press a button to open a chamber and easily remove the hair caught inside.

The roller can be used on furniture, pillows, carpets, car interiors, and more, and thanks to its major stickiness, I’ve found that it’s ideal for picking up deep-seated hairs and even fur balls, too. The first time I used the tool, with just a few rolls up and down my couch, it nabbed an enormous amount of hair. Plus, the lack of sticky tape made for way less mess.

It was equally effective on my dog’s bed, a few chairs, my cat’s tower, and even our car seats, removing hairs from cushions and crevices far more thoroughly and efficiently than a traditional lint roller ever could.

Plenty of other pet owners are just as impressed as I am, and more than 40,000 Chom Chom Rollers have been purchased within the past month alone.

“If you have pets in your house, and they get on the couch, armchairs, or anything that seems to magnetize their hair to it, this thing will suck up the hair in no time!” wrote one shopper. They added that the “completely amazing” device works “a thousand times better than those rolly tape things.”

Another reviewer called the roller “a lifesaver for pet owners” and praised its “ease of use and sustainable design.”
