Definitely Works on Carpet
I'm almost ashamed to post this photo, but this was what it removed from my carpeted stairs AFTER I swept them with my $200 Shark Vacuum (I have 2 large, short-haired dogs). It definitely picks up hair and debris that's matted in standard carpeting, however the results weren't as good on my microfiber couch or any other short material, but it still picked some hair up from them. It seems pretty durable too.
