We bought one at a local store to use on our long haired cat. It works very well but keep in mind it is not like using a regular brush on your pet. You have to use short strokes. On one side of the blade is marked the word Front. Make sure this faces the opposite direction that you are brushing. The instructions with the brush was very clear on this. Our cat loves to be brushed (with a regular pet brush) everyday but occassionally does get those little matted fur ares. The Shed Ender works great on these, you just have to work them out a little at a time. We use the Shed Ender about once a week and has definetly cut down on the amount of loose fur.

I found this product in [] of all places! If you don't have them in your area they are a surplus store. Well it was only 5.95 in there and the other combs were 4.00 so I thought what the heck. Mind you I bought this to comb a 172 pound great dane, it works wonders! He loves it. You do have to watch how you use it, it does take some learning and there is only one way to comb and hold the comb to make it work. Once you do though the results are amazing! I can't bathe my dane very often because of his size and it is cold in the winter outside so the hose and soap are out. Well this keeps him clean, shiny and NOT smelly all winter long! Just be prepared for A LOT of hair on your floor. We have one person comb and one person sit with the vaccum hose and just keep sucking it up. I love this comb!

I purchased this for my orange tabby, 13 lb. cat, when I returned a $12 bottle of Linatone to [] because it had made my cat sick. The groomer at [] gave me the 800 number to call and order this. I was skeptical... When it arrived, I was shocked at how small the teeth were on the comb (I had ordered the small one for cats). Then, I was equally shocked at the clumps of hair that it got out...once I realized the CORRECT way to use it. The instructions do NOT state this, but this is how it works best: Use short, brisk strokes. If your animal's skin is loose (my tabby is a bit overweight), you also need to hold the skin taught while you brush. You have to keep removing the hair that gets trapped in the comb because not all the hair that gets pulled out ends up laying on the animal/floor. My orange tabby, who loves to be "brushed" anyway, LOVES this, even tho it feels to me like it's digging into his fur. Well, it IS digging into the fur, and it DOES pull out the underfur, which is what used to end up on the furniture or in his tummy. My cat's coat has never been shinier! And when I simply pet him now, I don't loosen tons of hair! Use this as I've described, and it will work for you, too. I only wish I'd known that I could've gotten it cheaper at the Web site that sells "as seen on TV" much cheaper! Go there and get this for your pet(s)!

I bought the Shed Ender at a store in their "As Seen on TV" Dept. I only paid $10. I have a 14-year old long haired cat that leaves clumps of fur everywhere or has hairballs on a regular basis. I used this and I swear it took off half of his under coat, the stuff that he sheds off, but there was no more fur balls or hair balls anywhere. It looks like it is pulling, but my cat lies there and loves to be brushed with it. He does not act like it hurts him at all. I think it is worth the $10 if you go to a store that sells "As Seen On TV" stuff. Don't ever buy anything off of TV. Go to a store, pay cash, easier to return if needed.
