Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of As Seen On TV Fuzz Wizard Professional Quality Fabric Shaver
Customer Review: Wool lover's treasure!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a handspinner and love to spin fine merino wool...which happens to be notorious for pilling! I didn't realize how badly it could pill until I knitted a sweater out of my handspun yarn. After a year or so it was so dull and full of little pills that I wouldn't even wear it out in public. Since it took quite a while to spin all that yarn I was really dejected. A couple of weeks ago, my spinning group was discussing this problem and I decided to do some research. I read comments about sweater stones vs shavers on various blogs and web sites, and decided to buy the Fuzz Wizard based on the reviews. I'm so glad that I did, and have already shared my results with some spinning friends! It removes the pilling beautifully without damaging delicate yarns, and my sweater now looks like it did when it was first knitted. The only negative is what other reviewers mentioned: it would be nice if it had an AC adaptor. But with the results I'm getting, I'll gladly keep a supply of batteries on hand. It's definitely worth the minor in conveneience to have my woolens looking so good again! I definitely recommend it!Customer Review: Awesome product!!!

I love this so much! I have a black North Face fleece that was covered in these little white pills. I always tried to get them off with the lint rollers, and that never helped. I heard about these from word of mouth, but never really needed one until I stocked up on some nice fleece zip ups this past winter. I always felt a little embarrassed by how much my favorite fleece was pilling, and almost made it look kind of dirty and old. So I went on here and since this one had the most positive reviews, and at such a great price, I ordered this. I just got it in the mail today and was so excited to use it. I used it on my black fleece and sure enough, all those teeny little pills came right off! It took me about a good 15 minutes to get them all off but it was worth it. My jacket looks brand new now, and I'm so happy!! It does pick up all the pills pretty quick, the only reason it took me so long was because I had a lot on mine, and then I had to clean out the shavings bin. But really, no complaints on this! Even if this was ever to stop working, I'd just buy a brand new one! Really love this.Customer Review: Did stop working, but easy fix...

I love this little shaver. It makes things look brand new, extending the life of my wardrobe. No problems whatsoever. But I went to turn it on today and it wouldn't turn on as others have commented. Checked the batteries, good. Wasn't any fuzz clogging the rotation. Shook it to see if anything rattled, nothing. BUT, I looked at the battery connections and noticed one of the little metal plates wasn't as far out as the other. I guess over time it bent inwards. I gently pulled it out a little more, replaced the batteries, and voila! Shaver started working again. I guess the connection wasn't tight enough to the battery and that's all there was to it. Used it just as I had before. So if you start noticing issues and it's not because it needs to be cleaned, check to see if your battery plates are still "springy".Customer Review: Great item!

I had been looking for a "sweater shaver" for awhile, but couldn't find one at Walmart, so looked on here... I'm glad I saw the review for this item that said they found it at CVS, because that's where I ended up getting mine. I've been shaving sweaters, shirts, pants like crazy since I've gotten it and am extremely pleased with how it has completely renewed my clothes. As with other reviewers, I would love it if they had an a/c adapter for it, but I'm sure that would also raise the price of the item as a whole. I really like this one because the metal screen is very solid, unlike another one that CVS was selling for $7.99, where the screen was very flimsy, like it could easily be "torn" or whatever...Customer Review: LOVE LOVE LOVE this thing!!

I used this shaver to restore an entire couch, loveseat & chair!! It was easy to use & made my furniture look almost new again. I had the motor running for almost 2hrs straight & it worked like a charm from start to finish. After sitting in my closet for a month it still works -- just tried it on a cashmere blend sweater & it did the job well!
I originally tried the Collins D-Fuzz-It-Fabrc Comb on my couch.. what a joke!! I did one couch arm.. it took forever, was messy, etc.
Emptying the chamber on the Fuzz Wizard was EASY & was a small price to pay.
My husband said, "finally, one of your cheap purchases that actually works!"
Highly recommended.
