great for carpet grooming
April 24, 2017
Does an excellent job of lifting the carpet pile and making it looks new again especially in high traffic areas.
) Great for tidying up before visitors come
March 31, 2017
It helps loosen dirt pre-vacuuming and finishes the job making the vacuum lines disappear (until the next set of footprints are made!) Great for tidying up before visitors come. You need to be gentle with it.....it works well without a lot of pressure.
rake it up
March 20, 2017
This sure makes my carpets look better and gives my husband something to do.
So Glad I Found This Hair Rake
February 21, 2016
Where has this been my whole life?! This little rake really grabs all my very long dark hair. The first time I used it on my beige carpet I couldn't even believe how much hair had been stuck to it. It was...gross. Normal vacuum cleaners typically can't suck up my hair. I wish I had discovered this a long time ago. I use this before vacuuming and my carpet looks great.
Refreshed Carpet
January 13, 2016
This thing is great! We are selling our house and one of the comments from a prospective buyer was that they thought they would have to replace the carpet because it looked worn. The carpet is mid quality and is only four years old. I knew there had to be something that could help make it look "fluffy" and fresh again. I bought this and am amazed! I have gone over the worn looking sports and it has really helped make it look a lot better. I didn't get it to collect any pet hair or anything, just to make the carpet look fresh. Even with walking on it and the carpet laying flat a little bit again, it still doesn't look worn anymore.
The area that we didn't rake just didn't look great even after vacuuming
December 28, 2015
Came just as pictured. and WOW! the difference it made in how clean my carpet gets. My husband though I just bought junk so we tested it. In two high traffic areas in my house. One area we used the rake and the other we didn't. The area that we didn't rake just didn't look great even after vacuuming. So we raked it and to our amazement you could hear particles going into the vacuum and the carpet looked fresher and fluffier than before. It took along time for our vacuum to stop sensing particles and for the lights to stop blinking so we just kept vacuuming different angles and once the vacuum stopped we knew we had all the stuff out of the carpet. We now use the rake every time before we vacuum.

Great product!!
May 13, 2015
This is amazing!! I've always hoped something like this was out there! It does exactly what it says it does!It's perfect for my shag area rug and it doesn't damage it like a vacuum would. Very happy with my purchase!
Rake my carpet?
August 1, 2013
Yes, this is a great rake. It has small, soft metal brush rods that scrape across the carpet and pulls up the pile and loosens the dirt before vacuuming. It does not pull at the carpet threads but it does a great job of loosening the pile and getting all the loose dirt and dog hair up to vacuum. Love it!
Fantastic!
July 17, 2013
A great carpet rake for a fraction of the cost of others available. It also included a handle so I didn't have to make an additional purchase or search for a 'broom' handle as others suggest.
Great for the tassles on oriental rugs
July 15, 2013
My wife was foresver getting on her hands and knees to use her fingers to straighten the tassles on a few oriental rugs we have (She's a bit OCD with things like that). I told her there has to be a simpler and quicker way for her to accomplish that almost daily task of hers and that I was sure I would find something to do it on Amazon.comSaw a couple of similar products but chose this one because it had a longer handle than 1 or 2 that were less expensive (from what I could tell by the product descriptions which sometimes are lacking explicit info)It does a perfect job in 10 seconds or less on a 4' round rug and the teeth are soft enough that I do not have to worry about them scratching the hardwood floors.Needless to say my wife was VERY happy with the purchase.This product was just one more example of why I tell people all the time they need to buy online at Amazon.com. I am a loyal Amazon.com shopper.
The great carpet Rake!!!
July 8, 2013
I ordered the carpet rake because I have new very short shag carpet and it tracked something awful. The rake has a couple of uses and I love it. I rake to get it ready for vacuuming and rake later to stand the shag back up. It is a wonderful item to have.
This Helps
September 8, 2012
After 26 years in a house with no carpets (and dog hairs "up to the ankle", we have moved into a retirement condo with new wall-to-wall carpeting. Our dog of 14 years has a double coat. I brush her every morning but... Her undercoat is the same color as the carpet! I looked for a carpet rake on Amazon and found one. It helps bring dog hair to the surface before using the vacuum.

great for pet hair
July 25, 2017
I have 3 dogs and a cat and they all shed. My vacuum was constantly getting filled up with all the pet hair. I use this before vacuuming, and pull it across the carpet in one direction and it's very easy to pick up the pile of pet hair that is there. Then I vacuum my carpet....between the two my carpets are very clean and I don't have to empty my vacuum as often. This was recommended to my by the vacuum repair person that fixed my vacuum the last time it went on the fritz. He said this would help extend the life of my vacuum since I have so many pets.
So far so good.
April 29, 2017
It works to fluff up the carpet and helps pulling up dog hairs to make it easy for vacuuming. The poles are weak so I'm careful not to put too much stress on them.

This product works good for what it was designed to do however I give it a four star rating because there were no instructions on how to put it together and I had difficulty other than that it's a good product
You NEED this for your deep carpet!
January 22, 2016
The rake itself is awesome. It has made a world of difference. If you have deeper carpet, you NEED one of these.

However, plan to immediately replace the handle... it does not hold together. The engineering is mind-bogglingly flawed. But a standard broom handle will work just fine, and those are pretty inexpensive.
Carpet Rake effectively renews your carpet
August 28, 2013
Repeated vacuuming of the carpet tends to train the carpet to lay in one direction in tight areas. Heavy traffic areas can also wear a carpet in a beaten down pattern. The carpet rake has stiff plastic teeth to perk up and fluff the carpet fibers when you rake in the perpendicular direction of the normal vacuuming pattern you use. This renews the way the carpet looks, especially in high traffic areas like to the kitchen or a bedroom. The rake is lightweight with a plastic handle and very easy to use. The teeth or comb on the rake is stiff plastic so it is strong enough for household use. It is too lightweight for commercial use. I gave it four stars because the end cap of the handle comes off if you grip the top of the handle; somewhat irritating but given its price and rake is well worth the purchase. I use it once a week just in the high traffic areas and the narrow places between the walls and the furniture where you can only vacuum in one direction.

Great item for my new shag carpet. Keeps it looking fresh all the time.
Where was this all my life?
November 19, 2014
I love it! The carpet is so much cleaner with the carpet rake! The cat hair seems to disappear from the bottom of the carpet once I used this. I would recommend this for anyone who has an older carpet and needs it to be refreshed. Best buy in a long time.

... this thing doesn't work on certain carpets and works GREAT on others
January 9, 2017
Turns out this thing doesn't work on certain carpets and works GREAT on others. I tried it on a longer carpet fiber and it worked. Kind of. It definitely missed fur.

On a shorter, higher traffic carpet this thing worked so well it made a professional steam company lose it's job.
Carpet rake works, but handle doesn't.
August 4, 2016
The rake itself works well on the carpet and would probably work a whole lot better if the handle weren't so cheaply made. The handle comes in 3 pieces which must be put together. The connections for these 3 pieces will not stay together. With any extended use of the rake the 3 pieces come apart. I am not going to waste my time or money returning this item, I am going to just tape the handle together. If that doesn't work I will look elsewhere for a new rug rake. You would think an item costing over $20.00 would be better made.
Great product, but...
January 16, 2016
I love the idea, but we had to rig it because the bottom white comb piece keeps falling off. There is no real way to secure it, which is pretty ridiculous, considering that it's for raking carpet. We ended up duct taping it, but I wish it had worked as is. It does a good job once you get the comb piece to stay on though.
You better have an old mop or broom that's being tossed out because your going to need the handle off of it
July 19, 2015
I always hear commits about stuff that fall apart "it must be made in China" if it was made in the USA it wouldn't fall apart. I do love the rake and it does a great job all different types of carpet. But what is up with this flimsy cheap ass handle that is suppose to be able to withstand pressure while raking? This handle is made in the USA? One made in China I bet would hold up better than the USA one. Groom Industries you did great on the rake part but you be ashamed about the handle part and to proudly stamp "made in USA" on it. Luckily I had an old mop that I was going to throw away but it was the same size as the handle that came with the rake so I cut the handle off and with some glue slid the new handle in place and threw out the handle that came with the rake. The new handle works and looks GREAT! If I didn't have the old mop to use I would have sent the rake back. That's why only 3 stars - the handle part
Eh it works, needs a new handle
June 21, 2015
The rake itself is very effective. It does not "pick up" dog hair as some people are thinking. It's not a carpet version of the Furminator! We have pretty new carpets but with two adults two large dogs and a cat the high traffic areas were not looking pretty. I'll use it right before a vacuum and it picks up a lot more then just vacuuming and carpet looks great. So why the three stars? THe actual item assembly is awful, I thought I'd save some money and get the 3 piece handle, and I should've gotten the more expensive one. It's super wobbly and likes to unscrew as I'm using it so I'm constantly stopping to fix it. I ended up using some electrical tape for extra stability on the threads of the plastic part and it helped a little but still super flimsy.

This rake is evidently not what I needed.
February 15, 2014
My carpet is about 15 yrs old and probably past the point of no return as far as getting the pile to stand up better.
Not exactly what, but good enough
January 7, 2014
The carpet rake I lost was a heavier plastic with only about five prongs and was more for smooth carpets. Can't remember where I got it.
Need to be sturdier
December 23, 2012
Needs to sturdier. The man that cleans my rugs and his rake does a much better job! Better than not having the rake.

November 14, 2016
Took 2 passes on the carpet and heard an odd noise. On the 3rd pass, the handle completely cracked. We had an extension pole for painting in the garage, which we screwed into the white rake portion and its working. Our carpet is very long so the areas that are flattened from high traffic, it kinda pulls it up and then its immediately squished again as soon as someone steps on it. Carpet is less than 2 yrs old.

June 20, 2016
I would have loved to give a better review for this product as it did just as it said for the first 5 uses. I tried using it normally today and the head popped off and bristles flew everywhere, there is no way to fix it if this happens. It was fun trying to race my 9 month old on picking them up before he got to them 😕
I love the brush head
June 5, 2016
I love the brush head. It works as promised removing hair from the carpet. But the handle is flimsy. It bent and cracked within 60 seconds of the first use (see pic). Great potential, poor execution.
Good carpet rake really bad handle.
January 10, 2015
I gave it 2 stars because it does pick the nap up on the carpet. The problem is that the connecting pole is horrible. It doesn't stay together the plastic screw female end split immediately. I should have just teturned it. I am currently looking for a replacement one piece pole and until then I had to crazy glue it together. I cannot recommend this product.

Cheap and light
May 8, 2016
This rake is cheaply made. It is way overpriced. It does not make lines in the carpet. It is so light. It does bring back up the carpet slightly.
Expensive line marker
July 22, 2015
Assembly instructions would have been real handy!This might work better on a medium plush carpet rather than low pile that I have.All it does is leave tine lines on the carpet and that requires great effort.
Carpet Rake
December 16, 2013
LOVE the concept! I even like the carpet "head". It works great on long dog hair. However, the whole product seems cheap & over priced. The handle doesn't fit properly in the rake head. It tightens up almost to the tight position, but then loosens up & you have to start again. It never gets really tight. This seems an easy flaw to fix.

Not Great
January 27, 2017
I wanted to like it because I really needed it to work. Granted, my purchase was in hopes it would pick up my human hair but after seeing it operates, I can't imagine this would pick up animal hair either. You really need something rubberized and dense to do the trick and this is not. It is comprised of cheap, easily bendable, plastic bristles and not dense enough to do anything other than comb your carpet and any hair in the direction you're pulling. The way the joint in the arm connects leaves it disconnecting too often as well. Before you buy one of these for hair, make sure you do two things. 1. Get under your vaacuum and pull it apart to cut out & clean out any hair and debris on its rolling brush. Also clean out any vents and filters. Be sure all passageways are clear of clogs, let everything air dry, and put back together. Replace HEPA filter if necessary. Try this on your carpet first. 2. Look for a good hairdressers broom or rubber gloves from the pet section intended for cleaning dogs. This broom is a waste of money unfortunately. 😔
Don't buy if it has a 3-piece broom type handle
December 13, 2016
I bought this because a friend of mine has it was sturdy and it does a good job on making her carpets look nice. Apparently the company got cheap on quality since she got hers. Hers had a solid one-piece broom type handle. Mine came with an extremely light weight 3 piece metal handle. It is useless!!! After putting it together and trying it for the first time on my carpet it flexed easily while barely raking and it broke. I then took a solid handle from my broom and attached it to the rake head. Much better! I suggest buying the head separately for $10.00 and use your own handle. As purchased, this rake is not worth the $20.00 I paid for it.
Great idea, poor execution/
December 3, 2016
The actual rake works very well, but the shaft provided to attach it to, is poorly constructed and bent within a couple of uses; the shaft has now split. The shaft is made from three short lengths of tubing which slide into each other.Great idea, poor execution/ quality
Handle broke within 10 minutes of use
November 17, 2016
I ordered this carpet rake on 10/10/2016 in preparation for deep cleaning my carpets. I finally started the task this past weekend and literally, within 10 minutes of using this thing, the handle cracked where you screw it together. I just got on Amazon to see about exchanging it but my 30 day return window has passed with no option to exchange. I would like to exchange this thing and upgrade to a more sturdy handled (wood I think) model and pay the difference. Even for $20, one should get more than 10 minutes use.
Mine came looking like it had been used
May 28, 2015
Several things were wrong with this product.1. It comes in pieces that need to be attached to each other....they do not fit properly and leaves a very wobbly handle.2. The bristles are not strong enough to leave any effect on the carpet.3. Mine came looking like it had been used. The white part with the bristles was dirty and worn-out.Item Returned.
Complete waste of money.
May 2, 2015
This is a total waste of money. It comes in four pieces, which appear easy to assemble until you actually try to do so. The broom part falls apart seconds after you screw it in. The rake part is flimsy plastic. I thought I received a bad one, so to Amazon's credit, they sent a replacement overnight. Unfortunately, it was equally as bad. Run, don't walk.....away from this item. I just boxed them both back up and they're on their way back.

Rug rake
April 30, 2015
I like the rake. However, I had to tape the handle on. It would not stay in.
not the best rug rake! I remember back when you,probably know, when shag carpet was all rage! It is too flimsy. Didn't like it
January 27, 2015
This rug rake is rather wimpy! When I took it out of the box, it's comb like teeth were bent from the way it was packaged. I took it out seeHow it worked,
Horrible!
November 2, 2013
I purchased this rake because it got such good reviews, especially for the thick carpeting. I receive the product this morning, the spindals on the rake are bent, and the handle is also bent, this is without use! Plus there was a black circle piece of plastic that was loose in the box, my assumption is that its to keep the rake attached to the handle, but it's not obvious on how it's suppose to be attached. Clearly their quality review process is not good. I will be sending it back!
Didn't meet expectations
November 29, 2012
It was very hard to put together, it didn't come with instructions. I had to call several times and was still unable to put it together.
Very Flimsy
August 15, 2012
If you purchased this with assisting with dog hair this is not the one. I lost my old one in a move so I purchased this one. the bristles are flimsy and do not make any difference like my old one did. I am going to do to a professional cleaning supply store and get one similar to my old one. Very disappointed.
