In a Nutshell

  • Excellent grip and intriguingly simple design.
  • Effective when used gently, especially for long-haired pets.
  • May not work on all mats and isn’t always a favorite among cats and dogs.
  • Mostly positive user experience, especially considering the price.

Quick Verdict

The K9konnection Dog & Cat Comb is a specialized grooming tool that works best with slow precision to demat pets, especially for dense hair. However, it struggles with finer mats and a margin of cats dislike it.

Highlighted Reviews

— Gretabetter

"I have a densely haired ShihTzu puppy and have tried other combs to get to his bottom layer of hair with poor results. This product does the job without hurting my "baby"."

— Liza

"I bought this because of the grip. I am very happy with the grip. But the rake is not as effective for my Cairn terrier’s coat as the Mars rake. I wish I could put the handle on the Mars rake."

Bottom Line

It's a reliable option for general dematting, especially worth it for its price. Its effectiveness, however, varies by pet ironically.
