Do the attachments work on all types of coats?Updated 7 days ago

Always fully educate yourself on your breed's coat before any grooming. Our attachments are designed to work for the majority of breeds. If you have any specific questions on your breed, reach out to your Veterinarian before beginning a new grooming routine. All or attachments capture up to 99% of pet hair, fur, fleas, dander, and more compared to traditional grooming tools thanks to the constant suction! Each brush is equipped with openings to capture any flyaways, dander, etc as you're working, but simply use the fur ejector lever to push the collected hair in the bristles directly into your furMe hose.To learn more about the CLEAN lever, see this article.

The De-Shedding Brush attachment (included in the set) is for any pet coat that sheds! Best for short hair or any pet with an undercoat. Do not use the De-Shedding Brush attachment on non-shedding breeds or on pets with sensitive skin. 

Our Grooming Brush (included in the set) is great for any medium to long-haired coats. The metal pins gently capture loose hair on the top coat, while the coated tips are gentle on your pet's skin. Our Grooming Brush also works well on a wavy-coated, wire-coated, or any first generation doodle breed. 

Our Extra Long Grooming Brush (sold separately) is a great option for pets with longer or more dense hair that the standard grooming brush can't quite reach all the way through. The bristles are 21mm compared to 15mm on the standard Grooming Brush. 

Our Slicker Brush (sold separately) is designed for double-coasted, long, fluffy, and curly haired breeds including, but not limited to Golden Retrievers, Yorkshire Terriers, Cocker Spaniels, and St. Bernards. This sleek and efficient slicker brush is a must-have for pet owners seeking professional-quality results at home. The wires are 21mm in length and the bristles do not have coated tips. 

Our optionally purchased Dematting Rake is best for medium to long hair pets with a soft or curly coat that tend to mat. This attachment is constructed with stainless steel teeth to break up mats and dense tangles, while the rounded edges protect your pets coat from the sharp blades. 

Take care to educate yourself on your dog's coat if they are hypo-allergenic as they may need additional tools such as a wide-toothed rake, metal comb, etc.


Our AirClipper™️ (included in the set) is designed for all types of hair! Our AirClipper boasts a stainless steel fixed blade and an adjustable ceramic blade to tackle the thickest coats with a consistent performance while staying up to 75% cooler than traditional clippers. This attachment constantly suctions as you work, so the hair is gently guided into the blade, then loose hair is suctioned right into the hose. If the Clipper blade or the guards are popping off during use, you may need to brush out your pet's coat prior to clipping. The clippers shouldn't pull or tug on your pet's coat at any point.  To see more about the AirClipper, click here

Always wash and fully dry your pet's coat before use. Never use on wet fur as the vacuum is not meant to suction liquid. The blade on our AirClippers is Size 10. Our AirClipper includes 3 built-in lengths for a close shave: 1.0mm, 1.2mm, and 1.6mm as well as 4 guards in 6mm, 12mm, 18mm, and 24mm lengths so you have plenty of options. An additional 3mm guard is also included with every Pro Plus set, but is available for purchase if you have an Original model.
