Hurricane Fur Wizard Review

Hurricane Fur Wizard is a double-sided lint brush designed to pick up pet hair. It also includes a self-cleaning base that removes pet hair from both sides of the brush simultaneously, which allows you to continue cleaning with little hassle.

Note that when I first saw this product back in March 2017, it was sold under the name “Fur Wizard” and was colored red. By June 2017, it had been re-branded as Hurricane Fur Wizard, and the color was changed to blue, which matches the color of all the other Hurricane products.

The brush itself resembles a standard lint brush that has been around for years. Where it stands apart from the rest is not so much in the brush, but in the base, which is designed to quickly remove hair from the lint brush. When you press Fur Wizard into the base, there are bristles on both sides of the lining that grab the fur and pull it off of the brush. When the base becomes full, you can remove the clip and dump fur into the trash.

Hurricane Fur Wizard sports a relatively proven design that should satisfy the majority of users who try it. How well the base works could depend on a variety of factors, including the type of pet hair and how long you go between cleaning it out.

As you can see in my video below, I had quite good luck with it, as I was able to pick up hair from my Chihuahua and two golden retrievers. My most extreme test was playing with a golden in a blue suit and then using the Fur Wizard to clean it off. It may not remove 100% of fur, but it’s pretty close to it.

I like that Hurricane Fur Wizard comes with a mini version that is designed to be taken with you on the go. It’s smaller and only has one side, but generally works similar to its larger counterpart, although probably not quite as well. The only thing I’ve noticed over time about the Hurricane Fur Wizard is that it eventually becomes dusty and will transfer that to your clothing if you don’t keep it clean.

With inexpensive lint brushes costing only about $5-$10, the Fur Wizard offer of $28 for one, or $38 for two, seems far higher than you might expect to pay for such an item, even with bonus “mini” brushes included. If you are set on getting it, I suggest getting it in stores for about $20.

The self-cleaning base worked pretty well, even when I had a large amount of fur on the brush.

Alternatives

In the As Seen on TV universe, you may recall the Lint Wizard, which is a self-cleaning lint brush that costs about $15.

Why wouldn’t Bulbhead have 3 positive reviews, when they sell the product.

I’m confused….they do have 3 positive reviews. Did you click on “Reviews” to read them?

Yes I read the reviews, My comment was merely to say that Bulbhead is the ones who sell the fur wizard, so they can control what reviews are posted on their site. Click on link to Bulbhead below & then type in Fur wizard & you’ll see they sell the product. https://www.bulbhead.com/ I prefer to research everything possible instead of relying solely on a site that sells or manufacturers a product. The video review above was excellent & actually showed it being used. But I wouldn’t rely solely on 1 video or a company that controls what reviews are posted… Read more »

to “you asked” I’m finally realizing that originally you made a statement – you didn’t ask a question (why wouldn’t Bullhead had 3 positive reviews), LOL I’m usually more observant.

What I should have said is click on your o wn link & you’ll see the 3 reviews. My point was that since Bulbhead is the manufacturer. If you go on Amazon, even they will list it as “Hurricane Wizard by Bulbhead”.

I bought this product to clean dog hair off my couch and it does not work and I’m passed my 30 days to return it. Very unhappy

I purchased and used this product. I was amazed how much hair it pulled out of the carpet even AFTER I vacuumed!! It works best on long hair or fur though the short ones take a few more passes with the brush to grab. I’ve used it on the furniture, the carpet, and the car seats and overall I am very happy with this product.

This works fine getting my cats fur up BUT when you put the wand into the case, no matter how often, the fur just clings to the sides, none goes into the blue cap as they show on television -evidently they place fur into the cap themselves. Because the fur clings to the sides, it doesn’t remove fur from the wand after a few inserts. I had to use my fingers and battle pulling the fur out best I could, it’s impossible to get much though. I’ve had this a couple of months, it’s definitely makes more aggravating work so… Read more »

I’ve found that it doesn’t migrate to the bottom immediately, but after numerous uses it eventually does. Of course the type of hair you’re picking up could also affect this. If I had to remove it in the manner you describe, I wouldn’t be happy either!

I can’t get the wand out of the large holder! I can’t even get it to budge. Can’t say if it works or not….

I have a Siberian Husky. If you know anything about this breed it’s that they shed a TON and all year long. My daughter bought me the Fur Wizard about 3 months ago. I was skeptical, but finally tried it. My Husky is black, grey, and white. She only sheds the white hairs. I have a cream comforter that I tried first, as she sleeps in our bed. I took one swipe and almost screamed!! The hair was so thick on the Fur Wizard I couldn’t believe it. I had to clean it after each swipe. And no it doesn’t… Read more »
