Here are my experiences:
- I really like how heavy it feels in my hand. It's good to have a device that's nice in the hand and wouldn't slip out suddenly.
- It looks great. The blue is a nice touch and the transparent fabric shavings holder helps to give me a good idea of when to toss out the trash.
- The transparent shavings holder has a section that collects all the shavings. Most of the time, the shavings do not fall out when opening to toss out. It's a wonderful little detail that can help prevent many times when you'd have to bend down to clean up the mess.
- The bigger holes in the steel shaving cover allows the lint, etc to collect better.
- In terms of performance, my sweaters, socks, and lint on my clothes have virtually vanished.
There are more expensive, bigger and stronger fabric shavers, but this Remington fabric shaver is inexpensive and does the job. If well taken care of, this fabric shaver will last a while. If not and even over time, the fabric shaver will eventually be of no use. Still, given the price and performance, it's a must buy for anyone that has lint and fabric problems. Buy with confidence!
P.S. Be careful how much pressure you apply to your clothing/fabric. Make sure the intended area is flat, so that no drapes get stuck in the blade. With any fabric shaver, there is a potential for holes and damage, especially if not handled carefully.

Update December 12th: There is a cap over the blades that is made of a very thin laced metal. Perfect holes for shaving everything by the way. Maybe there was a little crack in mine...not sure. I know it wasn't because of too much pressure on my part because I'm very careful with it. In any event I heard a crunch sound. Next thing I know I've got a small jagged hole in the blade cover. I'm going to buy another one as soon as I get my refund and give it one more try. This is just too perfect of a fuzz buster to give up after one mishap which could have just been a manufacturing defect. Return is easy. Just pack it up, print out a pre-paid return label, I include a copy of my invoice and off it goes back to Amazon. My refund should be quick once they get it back. Over the years I haven't returned many items but it's always been a flawless experience.
First of all, this product is smaller than you would expect and on its box, it says "travel size" which wasn't indicated in Amazon's product description. Because it is small, it took a while to get rid of all fuzz on my cotton blanket (a couple of hours). So, this clean up task allowed me to test the product very thoroughly. Here are my observations:
- It looks like it is made from very cheap material. Battery cover is not tight enough as I expected. However, it works quite well without damaging the cloth.
- As the product is travel-sized, the fuzz container is very small but it doesn't interrupt you that much.
- Cleaning is very easy. The blade cover can be easy removed and it is also possible to take the blades out to clean up the interior side.
- If you are going to use it for a long time, like me, you might need to clean the interior a couple of times.
- It uses 2 AA batteries which are not included in the package.
- It doesn't make so much noise during operation
This is a very nice fabric shaver; small, light and good enough to clean up lints without damaging the clothes. I would recommend this product.

My only comment is that it considerably more expensive than others on the market but I guess I paid for the name!
