Will this broom help to loosen cat hair embedded near the wall edge of Berber carpet?

Hi Susan - About cat hair and your Berber carpet - If the hair is sitting on the surface of the carpet and not entangled in the hook of the Berber - Here is what I would do - spray water on the surface so the hair become damp and are more likely to stick together. Then I would use the flat side of this rubber broom. The flat side acts in the same way a wiper does to clear a window of water. You would be raking the fur into a pile..then physically picking it up. I love this broom...use it all of the time. Friends and family are amazed when then see how easy it is to scrape dust, dirt etc all into a pile. When you use a broom, debris gets lost in the straw of the broom and often gets redistributed. Back to your question. I have another Amazon purchase that I love. It is a Black and Decker 18 (I think) Volt rechargeable hand vacuum. It has a nozzle that would suck up dry cat hair. Then you would empty the plastic waste container...which is easy to do. What I think would work well is a damp sponge in hand... wiping the baseboard as well as the carpet. Tossing the hair in a trash bag. Remember the hair is on the surface and you don't want to embed the hair in the Berber. Just wipe it, clear it, vacuum off the top. I hope that this answer is helpful. Best regards, S.

Oh my gosh, yes ! This gets EVERYTHING up off any surface ...great to do just before vacuuming. Unless the hair is from hairballs and has been wet..If it's embedded hair that had moisture...not sure...probably would with vigorous movement. If it's just dry hair, it will pick it up. It's an amazing product.

We use it on our long haired cat to remove matted fur. Worked just fine and cat didn't seem to mind it as it is pretty quiet. I would recommend you try it.

I am sorry, we do not have pets in our house so I cannot speak to it. The problem we have with the machine is that the suction is so hard that it does not work well on our low-medium pile carpet. On a Berber carpet I think it would do very well. It is quite noisy compared to my Miele also. But I do like the weight of the machine. Hope this is somewhat helpful to you.

Yes, we have mid-grade residential carpet, so not short like berber and not super plush and it works wonderful on this type of carpet.

i strongly believe that it will. i have one long haired cat and nothing worked. all the other brushes were a joke. it's not to say that this goes through mats literally like butter, but for a cat brush it's metaphorically like butter. this has a bunch of sharp edges that slice through the knots and mats without cutting the cat. this is way beyond any other brush because it's not a brush. it is great.

I've used it on our carpet and area rugs, I think it works best at breaking up superficial dirt before vacuuming however, I don't feel it pulls up the cat hair (or my hair) that well. I think it works best to pull.

Yes, I use it to remove cat hair and dog hair from clothing and from the upholstery and carpeting in my cars!

Well I have a cat so his hair gets all over the place. So not so well. But if you have a lent brush its gonna get the job done, though it will take you a good 10mins to get all the hair off

I love it for my cat, it gets an incredible amount of hair off; so much better than a "regular" brush!

I have a cat, and ceramic tile floors. A lot of hair/fuzz collects in corners. It picks it up and holds it until I go out and shake it out.

This rake is for low nap shag carpets like frenzies. Would not recommend for Berber because it would make the loops fuzzy. It's just like a comb fluffing up carpets fibers.

I use this in my hall which is berber carpeting. Haven't noticed any problems with the carpet so far and I use it almost every day.

My carpet is not Berber, but it has a very tight, almost pebbled, very short nap. You said the suction on this model is poor. How about if the user makes two cleaning sessions, then?

Commercial carpets and/or carpet with a tight weave like berber but I don't think it would do well with pile carpet or loose weave carpets. It does not have rotating rollers to lift soil so it will not do well with a surface that allows dirt/debris to settle.

Yes, but my carpets are Berber. I don't know if it would work well on thicker pile carpets

Yes - mine are berber / looped so it cleans it just fine. I would suspect it may pickup carpet fibers with regular carpets - but maybe a tad more than regular vacuums

It will handle the fur like a champ, but clay litter not as well. An alternative for the litter might be a carpet flicker. The FURemover broom will definitely add usable time to a carpet flicker companion.
