ChomChom Roller is a Massachusetts-based small biz creating an eco-friendly, reusable alternative to sticky lint rollers.
Promising review: “This is amazing! I’ve bought all the animal hair picker-uppers. Vacuums. Lint rollers. Other products that scrape or collect the animal hair. I HAVE TRIED THEM ALL! They are NOTHING compared to the Chom Chom. I first saw it at my sister’s when my very young niece used it on her couch and on me. I was covered in Corgi hair. Personally, the Chom Chom isn’t the best on clothes. It is great for furniture. It is great for the bedsheets if your pets sleep with you. So I have had the Chom Chom about 24 hours and I’ve used it on pretty much every fabric surface and curtain I have. Including an ottoman I didn’t even see fur on…it’s amazing. I would rate it 100/5 stars if I could!!” —LouLou
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors).
