Reddit mentions: The best household squeegees

I have one of these—it’s not so bad. It’s essentially an overgrown pool toy, but I have fun in it on the river. It doesn’t handle super well in ocean currents or in strong wind, of course.

If you do get one of these, I highly recommend getting a painter’s pole—like this one—to fashion a sort of makeshift backbone for this thing. I use one of those, inspired by the Advanced Elements Backbone, and it improves handling by a lot. It’s especially handy for when paddling solo, because it distributes weight a lot better than just having your butt sag down in the low-pressure floor.

So I guess I post my answers here.

1. This item is good for storing and sharing all of your magical concotions, be it polyjuice potion or love potion. Just be careful to not have too much fun with it.
   
2. This broom made of high quality material will last you forever, and can probably handle a trip to space, so getting around campus should be no problem.
   
3. With a bit of magic, this item can help you defend yourself against the toughest washroom trolls.
   4. A book! And well, it is a book about a non-descript wizard. I could learn some very valuable lessons from it.
   
4. This little number can be used to store your photos from family back home, or your collectible wizard cards from the packs of chocolate frogs you'll find around campus. You can also magic it to protect your lunch from those nasty Primeryns.
   
5. This book is a pretty magical one, and can help you improve your magic dramatically by teaching you how to spell. (hurr, I think I'm punny.)

I got this as a psuedo-joke, but little did I know that it would be AMAZING for cleaning up the carpet of my love's hair before vacuuming. The rake just takes hair, sticks it to the rubber spikes, and catches every clump you would miss with your eyes. It really is awesome, haha.

Real talk, I've been using some weird rubber pet hair broom (like this thing) for the last 5 or 6 years. It's far and away the best snow removal tool i've ever used. I can easily reach every part of the various cars/ trucks I've used it on. It's like a super soft rubber so it's basically impossible to scratch anything and it leaves everything squeaky clean/dry and snow doesn't get stuck in the bristles so you can clear like a foot of snow off your entire car without ever having to mess with it.

I still have a normal ice scraper/brush thing that i keep in my car for actual ice though.

Thanks for all of the love guys. I love this sub and never thought to add this here without comments on my original post in r/oddlysatisfying...



So you don’t have to dig...

here is the broom

I have a Chesapeake Bay Retriever

The amount of fur is a lot I know, I started at the second flight and swept it down to my main level.

I got my husband one of these and our vacuum stopped looking like that. He scoffed at me when I bought it but now he loves it. :)

You can get the original parts online. That's what I did for my Fett.

• Squeegee
  
  
• Chemical Stirrer
  
  The security blade is made from part of the squeegee, a piece of plastic and some metal rods (I got these from CombatBaby on TDH). I used a small section of pipe for the jetpack adjustment tool.
  
  I saw you were also asking about a holster. You can get that from Kcr7pr or Fett Pride on TDH. It's pretty expensive...

Whaaaat!? I've never seen those and now I want one! opens amazon

Edit: I ordered this one!!! It even doubles as a squeegee!! I'm so excited lol thanks, OP! It's going to be amazing on my wood stairs AND carpet.

I've had this for a couple months. FURemover It does a great job getting cat hair off rugs. The included brush is perfect for furniture and cat trees.

These things are your new best friend.

They make these fantastic silicone brushes that remove pet hair from upholstery and clothes! And brooms, too! Helps keep my vacuum from exploding.

It's friggin' awesome this thing... I tried it out on an area that had already been vacuumed - and it pulled up stuff the vacuum had left behind. Definitely requires "raking" action than "push broom" action.

My particular one is the FURemover, I got it on Amazon for around $20. You use it just like a rake, raking up all the hair haha.

Surprisingly a rubber squeegee works really well for pet hair removal out of carpeting. Kinda like this

https://www.amazon.com/Evriholder-FURemover-Squeegee-Multi-Surface-Telescoping/dp/B000EFDOOA/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=fur+broom&qid=1559142610&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1 Pretty sure its this one.

fyi for carpets there's a broom like thing where at the ends, instead of bristles, it's basically rubber, to "sweep" up all the hair in the carpet. my mom uses it for my hella fluffy pomeranian when he's at max floof capacity (ie after he's done shedding and all his hair grows back in 1 week and he just poofs up like a popcorn)

edit: found it

I have an american eskimo mix who sheds all the time in a household with (mild) dog allergies so we vacum a lot. If you have high pile carpet, none of the roombas we've tried seem to be able to get all the fur totally out of the carpet. It does pretty well but there still is visible fur clumps after it runs. We either run a regular vacuum once a month as a deep clean or use a carpet rake to get the rest of the fur out. The carpet rake works better for us since our dog is terrified of the regular vacuum (He does fine with the roomba tho).

Not completely zero waste but better than throwing out a bunch of disposable ones:

Something like this

Oh man, that sounds awesome! Is it this?

Why would you take popcorn down only to spray up a very slightly different texture? I think we'd need to know the size of the flaws, but you should be able to skim coat it with drywall and use a large squeegee to smooth things out. If drywall mud wouldn't work, then there are other compounds meant for concrete that could provide the same result.

But, I'm in an area where smooth ceilings are preferred, that is what I'd favor.

drywall squeegee

There are long handled squeegees that are perfect for getting dog and cat hair off of fabric surfaces and out of carpetFURemover

That's enamel on steel. You still get those simple water buckets pretty much everywhere.
https://www.amazon.com/Karl-Kruger-Water-Bucket-10/dp/B00008WVMW/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=enamel+water+bucket&qid=1569683186&sr=8-2

You wouldn't be able to lift a cast iron bucket full of water, let alone a petite woman like that.

What's different from your old house?

/u/majesticjg has the right idea. We've noticed that area's without carpet have the least amount of "animal" smells. Dust and hair get pushed into the corners of the rooms by the ceiling fans and we just sweep them up every couple of days. Soft surfaces like carpet and cloth trap and hold dust and hair. This is one of the best tools for rugs and carpet. It pulls up all the crud that gets stuck down in the fibers that a regular vacuum just can't get. It works really good on berber and not as good on shag, so YMMV.

We have 10+ animals in our house and our filter still looks brand new after 6 months, it's one of those $30 12 month monster filters (I should check it again though). We also only have one bad shedder who we comb regularly and that seems to help the most out of everything. Grooming your pets is something that people tend to forget, but is an important part of owning a pet. The GSD/Husky mix is the worst shedder I've ever seen and we usually have to give him a good combing every couple of months. A Furminator is nice, but we just use a fine tooth comb or one of those metal bristle brush. If you dogs don't mind the vacuum, having someone there with the hose to suck up all the hair makes things a lot cleaner.

wrap material ended up being like ~800$

We have a Dyson DC41 and it does a good job of keeping the carpet clean of my long, ever shedding hair, plus the two dogs and the cat.

Another, cheaper option is to buy a rubber broom and run it back and forth along the carpet. The hair sticks to the rubber bristles and the come up to the top. Depending on how much hair you have in the carpet, the broom will roll it into small ropes that you can then vacuum up.

We've tried both and found that the dyson gets out the same amount of hair as the broom (on our carpets), but keep the broom around for cleaning out the cars.

Or something similar. Works really well!

I think we would both like this!

From my list!

i would probably go home with a sebo K3 if i were in your shoes (or can go big with a D4). Sebo's quick fieldstrip head will come in handy in removing the medium/long hair, washing/disinfecting, and i dont think there's anything else like it in that regard. a new roll costs like $25 if you happen to kill it. Not sure if it comes with parquet or kombi head also but they work good with front brush removed. Sebo bags are cheaper than miele i think, but 2/3 the size unless you shell out the $$$ for a D4 which is more comparable to a miele C3. Smaller bag capacity could be a good thing. How long do you really want crap to ferment in the vacuum anyway?

​

The Miele C3 costs more but has bigger bag comparable to sebo D4. the SEB236/228 powerheads basically dont fieldstrip at all, but it has a slot in the brushroll for scissors. I would probably pick a C2 or C3 for a house with no pets.

​

Both choice are totl for filtration. Spend the savings on bags. Change often if it smells. Buy bag tablets.

​

On second thought, maybe a vacuum cleaner is the wrong tool for massive amounts of fur. You wouldn't use pliars to remove a lug nut.. but you could. Long hair and spinning brushes don't seem like they should go together. Maybe the suction can be used in conjunction with a specialized tool?

It is a never ending struggle when it comes to the hair. I have found a rubber bristle broom helps a lot though.

You can use a rubber broom. I bought this one.

For blankets, I'd just shake them out super hard outside. I usually just throw them in the wash though.

Obviously putting a roof over it would prevent water from sitting. It looks like the water pooling isn't focused enough int one spot to warrant putting in a drain. Have you though about getting a floor squeegy? They are cheep and it's not that much area to just hit up real quick if you have people over.

No experience per se, but I have used a rubber tined "rake" called the Fur Remover on lower pile carpet before with good results.

I have a rubber broom that collects dust and all of the pet hair.
It hurt a little to pay so much for a broom, it's worth it. One side is also a squiggly that ul you can use on floors or windows.

I use one of these on the hardwoods for dog hair. I also use it on the rugs before I vacuum. Works for me.

rubber broom I'm not kidding.

I swear by this thing - a once-over on our rugs gets up almost all the fur, and then I can go through with the vacuum.

That said, with vacuuming make sure you're running it at different angles; you need to approach the carpet from a couple different directions to get all the fur loose as you go.

I bought a broom like this years and years ago at the county fair - you know, one of those "home show" demonstrations:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000EFDOOA/ref=asc_df_B000EFDOOA5245909/?tag=hyprod-20&creative=394997&creativeASIN=B000EFDOOA&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167134408017&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13703579249173887972&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9027682&hvtargid=pla-328029203487

It. Is. Fucking. Incredible. My only complaint is that it's not the easiest to do corners with. But hot damn, it picks up everything.

Does your office door swing into your office, or swing out? Unfortunately, they don't make a single product that handles both directions, so it'll depend on how your door closes.
