Without a dryer and forgeting to use a linen bag, my winter hats and gloves got piles of lint.
While it got the job done to an acceptable degree but not entirely satisfactory, it took a great deal of going over and over. The unit seemed strained also with a somewhat weak sounding motor.
I like the lint catcher. That is pretty great. It has a two dial setting of how close you can get to the material. I actually didn't see much difference in performance regarding either setting. Although, I found a hole in my cap, but I'm unsure if I caused it by this. It is an old cap.
I was also leaning towards giving one as gift for someone getting married.
I think it's okay. It's not good enough for a wedding and I probably would not buy this again, but it did, after quite a bit of effort, get my hats, scarves, and gloves to be decent enough to wear again.
