Beware! All three reviewers seem to be from Sharper Products
By Atiq U. Malik
Rest of (all three) reviewers seem to be from Sharper Products promoting their products. You can tell this by clicking "View All My Reviews" link and you'll see they have reviewed only shaprer products giving 5 starts to every product they reviewed. I strongly believe they are somehow connected with Sharper Products and promoting their stuff.PS: I have not used this product so I am giving it neutral rating. Intent of this post is to make others aware of what is going on. Thanks!

Removes hard pills only -- no good at removing soft pills, lint or fuzz.
By ONG Eng Ju
I bought this SMARTEK ST-25 Deluxe Fabric Shaver through Amazon.COM and had it shipped to Australia through an external freight-forwarding company. This was because shipping was only available to locations within the USA. In Australia, I've only ever seen really small fabric shavers being sold in supermarkets and drug stores -- those are the ones whose flexible metal grilles break if pressed too hard against a concave surface. I was hoping that the SMARTEK ST-25 Deluxe Fabric Shaver would have a strong grille and also do a great job at removing pills, fuzz and lint from fabric.When I received the shaver, the first thing I noticed was that the power adaptor which came with it was rated for 110V-120V only (this is the kind of house electricity found in the USA, and also in Japan). Fair enough; this item wasn't meant to be sold to places outside of the USA anyway. The shaver had no problems operating with my own power adaptors in Australia, or with rechargeable AA-size batteries fitted with AA-to-C battery adaptors. The metal grille on the cover is strong and mostly flat, so it is extremely unlikely to break by accident. The shaver is able to remove *hard* pills -- such as those found on the sole of cotton socks -- from fabric, but it doesn't do a very good job of making sure those pills end up in the dust box. Instead, they end up in your lap or on the carpet / floor.Unfortunately, that's all there is to say in favour of the shaver. It doesn't do a good job of removing *soft* pills (such as those found on nylon jackets with polyester filling), lint or fuzz. The fabric doesn't get nicked by the shaver blades and the grille doesn't break, but no matter how tightly I screw the cap on or how hard I press against the fabric, the *soft* pills, lint and fuzz remain. I suspect that this is because the design of the shaver didn't allow it to pull the pills, lint and fuzz into the holes of the grille where they would be cut by the blades. Even the $7 fabric shavers from the supermarket or drug store can do that, despite their easily broken grilles and lack of an external power socket.There are Japanese models of fabric shavers that are as large as the SMARTEK ST-25 Deluxe Fabric Shaver that have a socket for external power, but which use only two (2) C-size batteries instead of the four (4) that the ST-25 requires. They have strong grilles and can remove *hard* pills, *soft* pills, fuzz and lint. They aren't sold in Australia (and probably not in the USA either), but I was lucky enough to be given one as a present by a Taiwanese friend (they are made in Taiwan: Model LS-999).

By K. Thornburg
I am looking for a high-quality fabric shaver to use on upholstery that my cats have pulled (some accidential and some NOT!). Willing to pay for a good device, but when I read the review herein that points out of the few existing reviews on this item, one of them was done by someone who reviewed ten Sharp products in a ten month period - 5 Irons and 3 Fabric/Sweater Shavers. Wow - how many irons and sweater shavers does a person need? Is this a standard practice - do manufacturers hire testers or give products gratis to consumers for testing? I thought Amazon reviews were by the average-Joe consumer, and this has raised questions and doubts to me about the authenticity of the reviews. I trust Amazon reviews and frequently look to them before making a purchase. Maybe there is a legitmate explanation, but now the whole slew of reviews on this product seem suspicious to me. I have not used the product and do not want to judge it unfairly, but the reviews do smell fishy to me. BUYER BEWARE! Next time I check reviews, I will check the other reviews by a particular reviewer. I may come back and buy this product after all, but not before I investigate some other independent reviews.
