"It WORKS! When we bought our new couch, love sofa and chair - with those cushy pillows for backs, we had no idea we had just purchased 5 cat beds! It was tough trying to keep the fur off, it would get embedded in the cloth. Then we bought material to cover the tops - still all the fur and not so good looking furniture. The cushions were always smushed (?) down with fur tufts sticking out. Then this spray came along. It didn't hurt the ridiculously priced furniture, but it did keep the cats off. Other sprays drip, or spray off to the side, Simple Solution sprays more where you want it to. We prefer this one despite the hassle of online ordering to get it. ONE DRAWback: it does have an odor - they all do - I use air spray afterward."
