If you clicked on this story because you don’t know what a fabric razor is, you’re not alone. This was me not too long ago when I started looking for something that could eliminate pilling on some of my most beloved clothes. Luckily, I came across the Philips Fabric Shaver, a type of device I didn’t even know existed, and decided to give it a try. It’s now an essential piece of tech in my home, and you don’t have to pay as much as I did for it thanks to this Black Friday deal that brings it down to $13.

Sure, this might not sound revolutionary – especially if you already knew the wonders of such devices – but it was for me. I have lots of T-shirts, joggers, sweaters and more that I’ve owned for at least three years and wear regularly. We also have a bunch of blankets around the house, partly because I love a good throw, and partly because my cat needs soft places to sleep. All those well-worn and much-loved fabrics pilled over time, and I was tired of dealing with it myself.
This Philips fabric shaver means I never have to do that again. It runs on two AA batteries, has a simple on-off switch, and a shaving head with three sized holes that, when you slip it over your sweater or blanket, grabs the pills and shaves them immediately. It’s literally that simple; After trying it on sweatpants for the first time, I spent way too much time running around my house and in my closet unpilling as many things as possible. All the little pieces of fabric are collected in a removable chamber that you simply empty as often as needed into the trash. If you’re like me and trying to get the most out of your wardrobe and not buy new clothes all the time, this little gadget will keep the pieces in your wardrobe looking fresh.
