I'm Buying This $11 Fabric Defuzzer for Everyone I Know This Year
I don't know about you, but I hang on to my favorite sweaters and sweatshirts until they are literally falling apart at the seams. Nothing beats that one cozy sweater from years past (you know the one) on a chilly day. But what do you do when your most-loved topper that you can't bear to part with starts looking a little too loved?
Enter the Conair fabric defuzzer, a handheld, battery-operated magic machine (that's the technical term) that easily and quickly removes fuzz, lint, and pilling off of any fabric you can think of—and it's less than $11 on Amazon Prime.
I originally bought my "sweater shaver" last year in hopes that it would help extend the life of my years-old faves. When all of my sweaters were pill-free and looking brand spankin' new just a few minutes later, I started searching my apartment for more things I could de-fuzz—yes, I do (sort of) have a life, the results are just that satisfying.
The defuzzer has three different depth settings so you can use it on just about every fabric in your home. I shaved my sweatshirts, jeans, socks, rug, couch cushions, sheets, and blankets. In between uses, all you have to do is empty the lint catcher in the trash (did I mention it is so satisfying) and continue on your merry way.
Don't just take my word for it: The more than 5,500 five-star reviews on Amazon agree with me. "Not only is my duvet cover basically brand new, but I have found a new hobby," writes one reviewer. One user called it a "lint mower" and noted that it's so easy to use, "our 5-year-old 'mowed' most of one sofa." Another says, "My biggest regret: not buying this device two years ago."
I, for one, do not want anyone I know to live in regret, which is why pretty much every person on my holiday gift list is getting one this year. The gift of making everything in your home feel brand-new is priceless—and at less than $11, it's an actual steal, too.
