Can someone tell me what this product is? I have a dog who sheds a ton. I have half carpet/half hardwood and run a roomba every single day, still in the hardwood areas I get huge hairballs gathered in corners ALL of the time..if I get this I can scrape the carpets and take care of that

It's just a rubber broom. This post feels like an ad. These have existed for at least a decade.

One of those cases where idc if it is an ad, I want one. Also it would be a weird ad since nobody has linked to an actual product (not that I’m asking)

It’s definitely an ad you can tell the fur has just been placed on top of the carpet in a large amount so it looks like it works very well.

Most of these type of posts are ads. You'll usally see OPs alt account commenting something like "Through some internet sleuthing I found the link". At best it's an affiliate link, at worst it's a scam or even phising attempt. Since there is no link, I'm assuming it was one of the bad ones and it was blocked/removed.

Also note: You can achieve almost the same with a rubber squeegee.

Both the account that asked and the one that replied are private accounts with genric usernames. This is definitely an ad

I can't tell if it is an ad for the broom or the carpet that seemingly does a great job of hiding filth.

It does seem like an ad, I suspected as much too... sadly an effective one since now I'm wanting one of these, too. 😖
