Deskela Velour Self-Cleaning Slicker Brush

The Velour is a slicker brush that empties itself: press the thumb button and the collected fur comes away from the pins as one flat pad. It lifts loose undercoat from dogs and cats before that fur reaches your sofa.

One press and the fur lets go

Most slicker brushes fail at the same moment. The pins fill up, and you spend longer picking fur out of the brush than you spent brushing. The Velour fixes that with a release button above the grip. Brush as normal with the fine, angled pins, which slip past the top coat to reach the loose undercoat beneath. When the head is full, press the button and the fur is pushed clear of the pins, so it lifts off in a single piece you can drop in the bin. The soft grey grip is shaped for a full palm hold, and the whole brush weighs less than most phones, so a quick daily brush-out never feels like a chore.

What you get

• Clears itself in one press — the release button lifts the fur pad off the pins, so there is no picking hair out by hand
• Reaches the undercoat — fine angled pins slip past the top coat to the loose fur that actually sheds
• Works on dogs and cats — one brush covers short, medium and long coats across a multi-pet home
• Sits firmly in the palm — the soft-grip grey handle is contoured so your hand stays relaxed through a long session
• Light enough for daily use — about 130 g packed, so a five-minute brush-out never tires your wrist
• Loosens small tangles early — regular passes catch knots while they are still loose, before they tighten into mats

Questions about the slicker brush

Will the metal pins scratch my pet?
The pins are fine and angled, so they glide along the coat rather than dig in. Use light strokes in the direction of growth and let the brush do the work. Go gently over thin-coated areas such as the belly and legs.

How do I clean the brush?
Press the button and lift the pad of fur away. For a deeper clean, rinse the pin bed under warm water now and then, and let it air dry fully before the next use.

Does it work on a short-haired cat?
Yes. Short coats shed just as much, the hairs are only harder to see. A few light passes two or three times a week collects loose hair before it lands on furniture and clothes.
