Conair Fabric Shaver and Lint Remover

I bought the battery-operated version of the product. I had one (different brand) that was rechargeable, but, since it's not something that gets used often, it seemed like any time I wanted to use it, it needed charging and I ended up waiting several hours for it to charge. With a battery operated unit, if the batteries run down, I just pop new ones in and I'm good to go. Now with that out of the way, I give this only three stars. It shaves the pilling off sweaters (what I use it for) just fine, however, with this particular model, not only do you have to empty the lint catcher, you also have to unscrew the screen and clean the lint out from around the blades, otherwise the motor bogs down - and you pretty much have to find a little brush to do that job, because it's pretty hard to get all the lint with just your fingers. Oh, and be careful you don't slice your finger while you're doing this. I've owned several other fabric shavers over the years that weren't Conair and I never had to go through all that to clean them. They don't last forever, so when I needed a new one, I decided to go with a brand I recognized. Now I'm sorry I did. Just a PITA!
