Fuller Brush 17027 Electrostatic Carpet & Floor Sweeper - 9" Cleaning Path - Lightweight - Ideal for Crumby Messes - Works On Carpets & Hard Floor Surfaces - Black

Our dirt-devil multi-surface vacuum is currently in the trunk of the car on its way to goodwill. In spite of its best efforts, it just doesn’t match the excellent cleaning power of this fuller sweeper. The sweeper picks up dust, dirt, hair, kitty litter, and other random bits and pieces with ease, especially due to its size which lets us easily access small spaces and corners. Not to mention: it is actually truly fun to use! The feel of it is satisfying, and the color is fantastic. The sound is, believe it or not, a nice soothing purr as you move it back and forth while all the dirt magicallly disappears. Additionally, it has a strong build. I think it’s going to last for many years to come. The bristle brush cleaner is quite effective too, though I found scissors to be helpful in getting king hair fully removed from the lateral sides of the brush wheel. Works on carpet and hardwood floor. Best attribute: your cat may be willing to help put it together (see photo for details)!

I absolutely love this. I was a bit hesitant because many people were saying that it is only good for short piled carpet, but I just had a brand new very plush carpet installed, and I can’t be any more pleased. I don’t have to login my vacuum and it picks up great! I was very surprised that it actually also works on our new tile floor. While it does pick up a long strands of hair in the brush, it doesn’t do a good job of picking up the pet hair from my bunny. It has a little attachment that allows me to clean the brush roll. Super light super simple and I store it in a little corner in my family room.

The Fuller Brush 17042 Electrostatic is a mighty clean up tool. I did my homework and read many other reviews. I’m pleased to say this roller Brush does its job. My cordless vacuum cleaner was not picking up hair or much else after several years. And this sweeper not only picks up hair, but dust bunnies, sand, grit all the stuff found on floors and carpets. It is environmentally friendly. Old school! I agree with others who lament that this is a tad small cleaning device. I do wish the base was just a an inch or two wider. On the other hand I have a tiny condo and it does a really good job. My second minor complaint is that cleaning it out is not that much fun. It’s a little awkward trying to clean the underside after dumping out all the debris from carpet into garbage. There is a nifty little comb tool (solid metal) that you can manually remove hair from the brush. I do this every time after a good cleaning. I highly recommend this sweeper for its sturdiness, and ability to store a lot of dirt. This is a keeper, great value for money well spent.

I love this Fuller Brush , just be aware of what it is, how it works, etc.I can definitely see & understand anyone who would have some frustration & confusion with this thing. It does need a bit of understanding, finesse, and realistic expectations.Let's start with what the Fuller Brush 17052 Electrostatic Carpet & Floor Sweeper - 9" IS:- Totally non-powered; ZERO electricity; batteries; none of it. 100% manually-powered.- Does have a single brush that rotates as you manually push +wheel it around the floor. The brush seems identical to what is inside a vacuum cleaner & spins around to help pick up debris, but again; THIS BRUSH IS **NOT** ELECTRIC IN ANY WAY. It's made of the same stiff, horse / boar-hair material that is usually on all vacuum cleaners.- It is very small & compact. I love the size, but also wish they would come out with an "XL" size as an option; maybe 1-2" bigger. Obviously the larger it becomes, the less maneuverable it becomes, heavier, etc. so it's a trade-off. But it is compact.- Easy to use (with some caveats, detailed later)- Quiet. Almost 100% quiet, again; because it is not electric. A friend was over & commented how it emits a really soothing sound & I agree. Just a soft wheeling, gently and pleasantly squeakish kind of sound. I like it. It is WAY quieter than the questest vacuum; you could absolutely use this while a baby or light sleeper is sleeping. In the same room, no less. Extremely quiet.And now, what this tool is NOT:- Vacuum.- Scrubber- Perfect- Flawless- Does not Instantly suck up everything in its path.First thing I want to say is our home is mostly hardwood floors. This Fuller brush / broom works so-so on hardwood, but it definitely works much better on carpet and soft surfaces, such as any of the area rugs / floor mats we have in our home, soft & squishy kitchen mats, etc. Works excellent (almost perfectly) on soft / carpeted surfaces like those. However, I still love this thing & am definitely keeping it.One trick I've discovered; for debris / crumbs / gunk that this broom / brush won't pick up immediately or seems to simply push / scoot out of the way instead of inhaling it;pick up the whole broom, put the exact center of the broom (right where the brush is) right on top of whatever you are trying to sweep up. Now push it gently & softly.THEN, about 95% of the time, it will sweep up the debris that it has otherwise been simply shoving out of the way.I haven't taken the time to really investigate & think through why it works like this, but whatever. Kind of annoying, but again; I'm still giving this thing 5 stars. Basically; you are putting the round brush right on top of whatever gunk you are trying to pick up. It's as if something underneath is too low-clearance & is just pushing certain crumbs / debris out of the way, but picking it up & placing the broom right centered & on top of it, picks it right up. Usually.- If you have any ladies with long hair (or 80's male rock stars I guess LOL) living with you, holy cow.....be prepared.....for the unreal amount of hair this thing will pick up!Buy yourself a knife if you don't already have a good one, because You WILL need a blade to cut their hair off of the brush, because it gets SO tangled up. You can imagine how tangled / wrapped long hair would get around a circular brush (again; like what's in your vacuum).The included "claw" tool is very cool & great, but a little insufficient for the amount of long hair & carpet fibers (long from where our *&#$ cat picks at an area of the carpet) this thing picks up. It DOES pick them all up beautifully, however.This is NOT a negative; it's GOOD that it picks up all these hair & fiberrs, and if you've ever seen the bottom of a vacuum cleaner that's been used more than once, you've no doubt seen tons of hair & other fibers wrapped around the rotating brush. Same with this. Nothing this device is doing wrong; its just how it works with long hair / fibers & round brushes.This brush inside its little "bays" holds a surprising (and gross!) amount of debris. Holy cow; the amount of dust, hair, gunk & junk it accumulates, even from a seemingly "clean" floor is awe-inspiring (and gross!).It is very easy to empty, and it does NOT require any filters, bags; nothing of the sort, which is a huge plus. Just hold it over the trash can, press where indicated, and gently tap to dump everything. Again; depending how much hair / fibers / nuclear-sized dust bunnies you have, you might need to get the included & handily attached "claw" tool to help dig the crap out & into the trash.I've long wanted a better way of picking up crumbs, pet hair, & other debris that just accumulates when you have hardware floors. I was about to buy a standing dust pan & broom (so I don't have to squat down) but then I ran across this Fuller Brush 17052 Electrostatic Carpet & Floor Sweeper & decided to try it. I'm very glad I did & it's a keeper for me.Just play & experiment with it & have realistic expectations of what it is & can do, vs. what it's not intended to be / do.

I am very pleased with the performance. This is smaller (and quieter) than the other carpet sweeper I have, so takes a little more time to cover the area. But it is also more effective - picks up more things on the first go, works on carpet and wood or tile floors, and is easier to clean. So, actually less effort overall. I still need to sweep the edges, that last inch or so by the wall (same as with the other one). I also got the rubber ? vinyl roller and an extra regular bristle brush. I think the difference in effectiveness may be due to the brush, and want to have one ready on hand when replacement is needed (who knows when that mayor be).I read the reviews on a few different brands before purchasing. I find that the most informative way to assure satisfaction; it typically works well - as it did now.

Always loved Fuller Brush. I was really looking forward to getting this to use on my new bedroom carpet which is too plush for a vacuum cleaner, and my lightweight washable area rugs which get sucked up in the vacuum. I was very surprised to see how tiny it is. Looks like it's made for a Barbie house. Regardless I put it together and tried it out. It was difficult to push and pull, even on the area rugs. I was really hoping this was the solution. It's made well and very solid except for the handle, seems a little pricey for the size, but it's just not the solution for my home.
