The things with a grid of holes and a little spinning blade that removes pills from furniture and fabric. I keep buying $10 shitty Walmart ones and they die after a few months.
Any brands etc that aren’t enshittified yet?

A manual model with metal screen and blade will last forever and they’re generally cheaper than the electric kind.
Same as the other commenter - what manual ones are you referring to? I too am having trouble finding what you’re referring to
Appreciate the response! :)
Do those really work? I hate pilled clothes.
Get something called a “fabric comb”. It’s what my grandparents and great grandparents used to depill all their clothes, including delicate wool and cashmere, and that’s what I stand by. Cheap, come in different sizes, tooth ranges, and no need to change batteries. Hard to enshittify that.
Find an YouTube video to show you how to comb different grains/types of cloth with it. I was taught by my grandma, but it’s pretty easy once you know what you’re doing.
I tried one of those, it damaged several things and I’ve not used it again
Yikes, sorry for that. I’ve had the electric depillers cause holes in my knitwear/sweaters more often than I like, that’s why I went back to old traditions and haven’t had any problems.
Could be user error for both of us, but maybe the real lesson is that clothes nowadays suck/are flimsy as hell?
