Customers are dissatisfied with the suction of the vacuum cleaner attachment. They mention that it loses suction, the comb works well, but the vacuum attachment just never sucked the hair out of the com. The attachment also keeps falling off the vacuum hose and is useless without an additional adapter piece. Additionally, the small furminator brush does not stay attached while brushing, reducing the suaction. In theory, the device only works as well as the sucession of the cleaners. However, some customers report that the attachment may not fit their vacuum Hose.

Game changer!

Game changer!
I wish I got this sooner. I have always dreaded deshedding our 56lb Goberian because it's such a mess, which led me to putting the chore off (which didn't help the mess). I have tried deshedding our dog inside, outside, sitting, standing, and in every which way you could think of only for both me and the dog to be covered in floating fluffs of hair. But this is a game changer. No more hair balls floating around, no more 15-20 minute clean up after the 30-45 minute deshed session. Now it's just deshed and go. Plus, it cut the deshedding time in half as I don't have to pull the hair off the furminator, the vacuum just sucks it up for me. I will add an extra piece of Velcro near the back of the handle as the one it comes with doesn't seem quite sufficient, but that's an easy and cheap hack to make this tool absolutely perfect.
Thank you for your feedback

1.0 out of 5 stars Gimmicky, and difficult to use...
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2020
I really, really like our Fuminator brush. So I was willing to try the 'vacuum' attachment.

Perhaps my expectations were too high because we have enjoyed using our Fuminator brush on our two huskies. The brush works well. But... the vacuum device is simply a cradle for the brush that positions the vacuum pickup right under the brush teeth. Now to be fair, the device sort of worked, you could brush the dogs, and when you push the button to clear the teeth, the dog hair would sort of get sucked into the Furminator vacuum attachment.

Sort of...

The brush itself sits in the vacuum cradle and is held in place with a simple small band of velcro. In my opinion, this band is inadequate for holding the brush in place.

You can see from the photo I posted, that when used with our whole house vacuum, the attachment is rather difficult and unwieldy to use on the dogs. And I will be fair and say that a hose directly connected to the Furminator vacuum attachment would be easier to use.

This is the first time I plan on returning a product because I was not impressed with how it worked.

In my view, the vacuum attachment does not add a lot of value...

But, for the right folks, under the right conditions, you may have better luck with it than I did.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works like a charm - only a couple of issues...
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2016
First, if you dog does not like vacuums, this tool will not work. You cannot make a dog that does not like to be around the sound of a vacuum suddenly like it so take that into consideration before you buy it.

Our English Lab (yellow) does not mind being vacuumed - I would use one of the brush attachments every now and then when she'd be shedding her undercoat and she'd just lay there. She's very laid back and extremely easy going. Because of that this tool, in combination with the Furminator, is AMAZING.. The only reason I can't rate it 5 stars is because I agree with others when they say it needs to be re-engineered. the components and parts don't fit tightly together and as some have stated, it creates even more noise than there has to be. The trickiest part of this entire process was getting the dog washed, but then figuring out when I had to press the release to allow the fur to be sucked away. We have a Dyson for animals and it attached just fine.

So no, not perfect, but sure beats having to brush and then release into a paper bag and that makes it well worth the money.

Will try to upload photo of canister a little later when i'm not on a mobile device.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fonctionne mais pas pratique
Reviewed in France on July 27, 2019
Cet accessoire est vendu avec deux adaptateurs, un pour les petites brosses et un pour les grandes brosses + un adaptateur pour aspirateur.

J'ai testé sur un aspirateur LG Kompressor, un Rowenta et un Bissel : avec ou sans l'adaptateur ça ne fonctionne pas.
J'ai forcé un peu et l'accessoire à fissuré mais j'ai réussi à l'utiliser...

Avec mes chats, impossible car ils on trop peur de l'aspirateur et j'ai donc essayé avec mes deux labradors qui perdent énormément de poils (que je brosse régulièrement avec une brosse Furminator L).

A l'usage, il suffit de brosser l'animal puis d'appuyer sur le bouton bleu et les poils partent sans problème dans l'aspirateur sans qu'il y en ai partout.
Mais la brosse est difficile à manipuler et quand on à le manche de l'aspirateur tout de suite derrière c'est lourd et on abandonne vite.
Sans compter que le réducteur de diamètre noir sort sans arrêt de l'accessoire vert Furminator et il faut sans cesse le remettre.
La brosse qui est uniquement fixée avec un petit scratch bouge également sans arrêt.

Bref, c'est une bonne idée qui fonctionne mais qui n'est absolument pas maniable, pas facile à utiliser.

Je vais acheter un flexible type tuyau d'arrosage de diamètre 32 que je vais relier entre mon aspirateur et la brosse pour que ce soit plus maniable.
