Side by Side Comparison of: As Seen On TV vs Aenmil®

I love this thing! It uses regular size batteries that i don't have to go searching to find, and the batteries last a long time. Best of all, it lets me clean up the pills off my clothing, making it look like new again. I wear a lot of sweaters and cotton items, which do pill over time. I've also used this on have coats that pill in the armpit area, and now I can get those out, making expensive coats useable for a much longer period of time and making them look cleaner. This shaver removes those pills without damaging the fabric, which is great. I've used other shavers in the past that have cut holes in garments, rendering them useless and wasting money. This shaver has a plastic protector which prevents that from happening. I think everyone needs one of these. The minimal amount of money you will spend on this will pay for itself once you've renewed all those items of clothing you may have otherwise thrown away.

I was looking for a new clothes shaver because my little one took forever. I was VERY pleased with this one. I don't buy as seen on tv items because of bad experiences. But I am so happy I took a gamble and got this one. First, the shaver area is super large and so it takes less time. Second, it works fast. Three, it only takes 2 C-Batteries. And Lastly my old one NEVER did the job like this one. I put pictures. This would have taken me a week to get this much lint off my black sweater. This took about 20 minutes. It was really in bad shape and it came out great. One picture shows the size, one the lint size.

Awesome Product!I gave it five stars because it is very large & covers a bigger amount of space than any other I've used. It is powerful & lightweight. I was going to buy this one 1st & chose a smaller, more inexpensive one instead. It works great but it was too small for large jobs, so I ordered this one & absolutely love it. I saw some reviews with complaints that I can't understand or relate to at all. This one also comes with a cleaning brush & a fabric guard for clothes & blankets etc...with a thicker nap. Some customers complain on any of these shavers that theirs died right away. This happens if the fuzz or threads become wrapped around inside spinning parts. It's easy to take the cover off & remove blockage & close back up. I even use canned air on mine on occasion to fully blow dust out. This is such a fantastic shaver, I recommend it to anyone looking for a fuzz/pill remover. You will not regret it!!! Do not believe any negative reviews!!! Buy this & get your clothes, sheets & certain chairs, couches & throw pillows looking new again!!

Believe me when I say this, click on the "See all 4 customer images" on the top page where the image is, you will see the old sock that I found in the garage before and after. One of the thing I can say cheap miracle machine.

This works EXTREMELY well. However, after a couple of minutes, it seemed to be 'dying'. I was so incredibly disgusted because some of the reviews talked about how it failed after just a few uses. I just couldn't believe it was happening. So, I took out one battery (so that I wouldn't turn it on by accident when checking blades... I'm a klutz), only to discover that it had cut off so much fuzz, it wrapped around the turn-shaft to which the fan is attached. I couldn't get it off with the included lint brush, so got a pair of tweezers to clean it all off. That did the trick! So in effect, it works so well, that one needs to stop frequently - not just to empty the little fuzz catching container, but to unwrap the fuzz from around the turn-shaft (or whatever its official name is). It's a bit of a pain, but certainly worth the results! I will be keeping this cheap pair of tweezers in the box with the Fuzz Wizard because the little lint brush is relatively useless for when fuzz actually gets wrapped around the shaft. But again... the blades are very sharp. I would highly recommend taking out a battery before uncovering the blades. [You wouldn't want to accidentally turn the dang thing on ... as one could cut their fingers "to pieces."

I buy alot of my clothes from Forever21 and places like that, and they have a lot of knit clothing, and after awhile little fuzz builds up on them, and it looks awful, then just sits in my closet for months, till now! I love this! It gets rid of the fuzz build up very well, I about de-fuzzed my entire wardrobe in one sitting! It does take two double C batteries that dont come w/ it, so keep that in mind, also it does take awhile to de-fuzz stuff so be patient, also make sure your using it on a flat surface, and the clothing is as smooth as you can get it, dont go over any bumps/wrinkles on clothing w/ this, b/c the fabric will go into the machine and it will get cut, that has happened to a few times, but the cuts arent major, and not very noticeable. Overall great purchase!

This does work, however, you do need to be careful and sometimes it is necessary to go over several times. I've found that if I put my sweaters on the ironing board and go in small circular motions switching from one direction to the other (clockwise/counterclockwise) that it does a pretty good job getting the fuzz off. I haven't snagged anything yet with this method, but I do take my time with each garment. It's been a great refresher for my sweaters so they don't look all worn. It even works on my couch that has a bunch of pills - but it does take quite a while to do one cushion, so I decided not to do all three!

This little shaver is actually a lot more powerful than I thought! It worked well on removing the little lint balls from my sweaters...until I got careless for one second and it tore a small hole in one of my shirts! It's best to lay the garment flat on a firm surface while using this. I had my shirt laid out on my bed and since it's an uneven surface and with a slight heavy hand (even for a moment), it caused a hole in the garment. As long as you do not rush and make sure you are consistent in applying any pressure onto the garment, it will work fine.

I was on the search for an electric fabric shaver because my delicate, rayon/ merino wool sweater accidentally sneaked into my laundry load (yikes)! When I took it out of the dryer, it pilled like crazy! Little red pills gathered all over my freshly washed clothes and my brand new sweater was ruined. I saw the fuzz wizard and had some hope that my beautiful sweater could be saved!Once I received it in the mail, I saw that it was very poorly packaged. It was impossible to get out without ripping it apart. I was trying not rip anything in case I wanted to return it, but oh well. When I finally got the little bugger out of the box, I saw that I wasn't given the cleaner brush for the blades. Also, I could not get the fabric guard on. I tried for 25 minutes until I gave up. It just didn't fit and was frustrating. It was a very disappointing start.Once I started using the product, I didn't see an immediate difference. I was very worried that I had to pull the plug on my gorgeous sweater, but after going over the first half of my sweater a few times, I stepped back and saw there was a HUGE difference! I was very happy and continued to shave those evil little pills off. I don't think it got ALL the pills so that it looked brand new, but it got about 90% of them. The ones it didn't get were very tiny and not too noticeable. Turns out I didn't need the fabric guard at all! Even though my sweater was super thin and delicate, it didn't make any holes (and this was my first time ever using one).It was very time consuming; took me a little over an hour (but my sweater was REALLY bad). I did have to empty the lint case about 6 times, but that didn't bother me. A lot of people complained about that, but if they were to make the container bigger, then the whole product would feel bulky and ugly. People also complained it consumed the battery life in a short period of time. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THAT. My shaver lasted my entire hour of constant shaving with strong power throughout the shave. My guess is that their shaver started to get clogged or the cap wasn't on tight enough. The batteries are very expensive, but this shaver isn't going to be used on a daily basis so that's not too bad either.Overall, this little gadget saved my sweater and did a decent job doing it. It's well worth the price and I'm definitely keeping it for future use. In my opinion, you should definitely choose this over the other really expensive ones!

I chose the Fuzz Wizard because its description and reviews indicated that it could be used to remove pills from delicate fabric without damage. So far, it has generally met my expectations. It effectively removes pills and fuzz from clothing, and when used carefully, it has not ripped or otherwise damaged thin cotton or other delicate fabrics. It works somewhat slowly compared to some other fabric shavers, and it can take a while to use on a garment with lots of pills and/or fuzz, but it does (eventually) do a terrific job of removing even tiny pills. The careful use of this product made several thin, delicate (but badly pilled) shirts look almost like new.I find that the fabric guard (a plastic ring that snaps over the head) seems basically useless, as it keeps the shaving head too far from the fabric. So even on delicate fabrics, I just use the Fuzz Wizard without the fabric guard. As long as the fabric is kept completely flat and somewhat taut, the device does not tear or rip the fabric.

I purchased this based on reviews I read on Amazon. I needed it for my sofa. A fairly new blanket left pilings all over the sofa. The blanket was black. It's now in the garbage. Who needs a blanket that sheds like a cat? Don't get me wrong I like cats. But I didn't buy a cat. I bought a blanket. Just so you understand.Anyway, my sofa has caramel beige, nubby upholstery that willfully cling to every one of those little black pilings. A vacuum did nothing except annoy me. So it was either a fabric shaver (of which I've never used) or spending the next year of my life picking off these pilings by hand because the sight of them ticked me off.This fabric shaver worked. However, I did put my back into it. It took about an hour to shed (or is that shave?) my sofa completely. A large sofa. A great many pilings. The downside, in my eyes, was the collector cap (covers the pilings storage chamber) had a tendency to slip off easily and often. There were times when I had to maneuver the shaver in such a way because I was intent on getting every piling. The result: spilling the pilings right back onto the sofa. As it was now a concentrated pile, it wasn't so bad. Keep in mind, I never allowed the chamber to get full so that wasn't the reason. I think it's a product flaw. Still for the money, it's less of an inconvenience than having a black-piling-speckled sofa. Now I don't have to throw my sofa out of the window.

I bought it because I had several pairs of hand-knit socks that were completely fuzzed out, and yet, since I'd spent the time to knit them I wanted to give them a last chance to look decent again. So after much deliberating amongst the various models of de-fuzzing machines, i selected this one, and i am so glad! It works really well - I was so amazed by the results on my first sock that I ran around showing all my neighbors (knitters too).I don't really have any longevity comments cause mine is still pretty new, but i can see you might want to have new blades at some point. And I'm not sure about the extra guard ring they send you... - maybe for fuzzier wools...Seems well worth the price!

Okay product, upgraded to a more expensive model that works great.

I bought something similar a few years ago and it stopped working after 2-3 sweaters. This one has been working well for probably about 10 sweaters - it isn't all that fast, and two or three times I must have let the fabric bunch up because it snagged and cut a small hole in my sweater, but overall if you're patient and careful, this is a good product.

This is a great little gadget... its powerful enough for a tough job like a wool coat. The only problem and the reason i did not give it 5 stars is that it had was the super short battery life with no plug. You are completely restricted to battery life.

The fuzz wizard works, just not as well as I would have hoped. It removes a vast majority of the larger lint/pills, but it doesn't get everything and it takes a couple go arounds to get it. I used it one time on a thinner sweater and it ripped a hole right in the material, luckily, I took it back to the store and had it replaced. Watch out for your favorite sweaters! I would not recommend using it on them.

I bought this to use on some knitted clothes (as in knitting needles) that have developed a halo of fuzz. The name of this product is "Fuzz" Wizard Fabric "Shaver" so I assumed it would work for getting rid of this frayed halo of fuzz on my sweaters and other knitted stuff. I first tried it on a sweater. The sweater has large knitt, made from yarn. Nothing. I then tried on some knitted (again knitted with knitting needles) fingerless gloves, again, large knit with thick yarn. Again, nothing. Litterally, no change at all. The halo on these two items was made up of frayed fibers of yarn 0.5 to 2 inches in length. These were too long to get sucked into the small holes on the front of the shaver. I was very disappointed by this, and feel the descritpion and name of this item is missleading in this way. It does not remove "fuzz" and doesn't in my opinion "shave" anything. I ended up using a pair of sizzors and just trimming the halo off. Side note, even after trimming, when the frayed fibers were less than half an inch in length, this shaver still didn't change anything.But, I tried on a pair of slacks that has pilled quite badly. The pills were small on a stretchy, knit fabric. Worked like a charm. I was surprised, after my first attempts, and pleased at how well it worked. It made those slacks look brand new. And fast! I ran the shaver over the fabric while I was wearing them, and I could hear the blades chopping through the pills. It took only one pass for the fabric to be left smooth, unmarked and without pills.So, depending on what you want to use this for, it could work wonderfully or not at all.

This works ok, but it eats batteries quite quickly and takes several passes to get all the pilling off the sweater. It does shave the sweater smoothly and there isn't really any way to gouge the sweater owing to the design. It just seems to take a long time to go over a sweater with it.

I had to go buy C batteries. When i used it it worked well but the motor sounded crazy. It was revving and then sounded super weak. No idea why its doing this. Not worth 24.99 plus $7 for two l ousey C batteries. Your better off going to bed bath and beyond and buying a similar one for 9.99. I lost it so I bought this one. Big mistake. At least that one had a good motor in it.

I got it yesterday. Battery compartment cover and fabric shaving bin frame were a bit loose so when I push the on/off button on the side, either of them tended become loose from its locked position. So I ended up continuously sliding back either the battery compartment cover or fabric shaving bin to its locked position. At this point I should have returned the product. I tried shave some fabrics and it worked pretty well. After using the product about 30 minutes, I placed it on top of the counter about 2.5' high and somehow it got dropped. The shaver practically fell apart into pieces: main part, battery compartment cover, fabric shavings bin coven and batteries. Fabric shavings bin edges chipped away (shattered) so it would not stay in the main part any longer. Plastic frame is hard and thin, it is easy to shatter.

Loved it at first, but stopped working after ~10 uses, Took it apart and couldn't find where the problem was, so ordered a second - which stopped working after 4 uses. Really not worth the money if it breaks so easily.

This Shaver does not work for me. The reason I purchased it is because I have a smaller version (different brand name - "evercare") that I used mostly to pick up lint from my carpet (that comes from my grandson walking around in socks), it worked excellently for this; but was slow process.So I decided if I get a larger version of the fabric shaver, this way so I thought, I could get the lint up quicker. However, this was not the case. This shaver (Fuzz Wizard) picked up no lint, even after several passes over the same area. One would think this one would be more powerful, since it was larger. Not worth asking for a refund for the small price, so I'll just throw it in the drawer with the other useless items I have purchased.

This worked great for 6 months & even though it did pull the fabric once in a while, overall it did a good job. Suddenly, however, it simply stopped working; it won't turn on at all. I tried new batteries but no luck. I need a new one & based on my experience with this one, I decided to buy an oreck fabric shaver from their website as they have a warranty. Would not purchase this item again.

I received my fabric shaver last week and what a disappointment. It is very poorly made. There are 2 slide-on covers (one for the battery and one for the sweater clippings) and neither one of them stays on. I had to shave with a death grip to keep them from falling off while I used it the first time. I guess I will have to wrap it with duct tape. It shaves adequately but the power wasn't anything outstanding. The shaving power is comparable to one a had a few years back that was 2/3 the price.

Difficult to turn on & off and wont stand up on it's own

I got the impression that this was the best of the best, not only from your description but by an advertisement. I was shocked when I received it. Do I need to call again, I thought, regarding this item too - $66 plus dollars for this piece of small plastic. I got out the clothing needing to be "de-pilled" and I worked and worked and worked with hardly any success. I am greatly disappointed in this product.

This didn't last me two tries. I am not 18 - I know how to use this kind of battery-powered appliance, I did not abuse it. But it bogged down the second time I used it. Its just a piece of junk, it just has an "As Seen on TV" advertising hype. I sent it back and bought an Oreck online, which has an electrical plug option. So far it has worked fantastic. Much more power than this one. I'd recommend the Oreck.

Worked great for the 2 times that it worked. Then it just quit. I checked batteries with a multi meter and they were fully charged. I tried reseating the batteries, then tried brand new fresh batteries. I made sure there were no obstructions in the blades. Occasionally I could get it to run for 2 seconds and then it would just stop. Most of the time it wouldn't run at all. Quite a disappointment as my last fabric shaver (not this one) lasted 25 years.

The fabric shaver works great the cover that holds the shavings is a piece of junk it falls off when using it.and shavings fly all over the place the cover does not lock on (very disappointed ) if I could return I would

Received this as a Christmas present, eagerly opened it and inserted new batteries - I have a number of sweaters that could be saved with a great fabric shaver. This one isn't it. I made it through the front half of one sweater before the thing completely died. Replaced batteries to see if that would help but it did not. I have had things from a dollar store that lasted longer than this did. Ridiculous and, even though it is not in "new" condition since I used it for that quarter of a sweater, I am going to request a refund. A replacement/exchange would only be a waste of time, effort, and shipping. What a shame. In looking through the reviews, it appears this product has not improved at all since other customers have had issues over the last few years. I'd strongly urge you not to buy this product, it was a complete disappointment.

These things are temperamental on a good day, however this item is worthless. It kills brand new batteries in less than 15 seconds. I thought something was wrong with the first set of batteries so I bought new ones today and had the same results. I waited too long to use it and now I cant return it. Bad deal all the way around! Don't buy the Fuzz Wizard. Deserves a negative 5 brown star rating.

It is a piece of s*** that never worked and it would have cost me over $80 to had sent it back to the seller. So yeah that means I am stuck with their garbage. And honestly the star that I gave it was only because this page would not let me submit the review without a star, but as for me no star at all None zip zelch nade nit
