GUBCUB 2-in-1 Tear Stain Comb Kit

Words · Craig & Sammy · ASIN B08W2FTHVW · Filed under  Brushes, Combs & Grooming Tools

“Sammy's eyes get messy — this kit handles the tear stains without fuss. The small double-sided comb does the work, the price is sensible, and I've already bought a second one for the grooming bag.”

Those reddish-brown tear stains under your Yorkie's eyes are a common frustration for Yorkshire Terrier parents everywhere. This GUBCUB 2-in-1 grooming comb kit tackles both tear stain removal and coat detangling - two tasks every Yorkie owner knows all too well. The fine-tooth side gently removes crusty buildup around your Yorkie's eyes without irritating their sensitive skin, while the rounded teeth prevent scratching on that delicate face. Yorkshire Terriers are particularly prone to tear staining due to their prominent eyes and facial structure, making a specialized tool essential for keeping them looking their best.

The compact size is perfectly proportioned for small breeds weighing 4-7 lbs, allowing precise work around your Yorkie's face and eyes. Regular use helps prevent stain buildup before it becomes noticeable, keeping your pup camera-ready. Every Yorkie deserves to show off those beautiful eyes without unsightly staining.

  • + Excellent value for money: half the cost of professional grooming sets, 65 of 69 value mentions praise the price point for the range of tools included
  • + Easy to use and clean with comfortable handles — all 28 ease-of-use mentions are positive, and the variety of five combs means different tools for different grooming needs (face, ears, body)
  • + Solid build quality for the price — metal combs have real weight to them, 103 of 108 quality mentions are positive, with teeth sharp enough to work but not excessively so on sensitive areas

Watch for

  • Durability is uneven: 16 of 42 durability mentions are negative, with some users reporting bent teeth or broken combs on arrival

What owners say

From the reviews.

This is a solid grooming kit for small dogs and particularly effective for tear-stain management. Customers largely praise effectiveness (96%), quality (95%), and value; the kit includes multiple combs for different grooming tasks and sizes. The main friction points are durability concerns (some arrive damaged or show bent teeth after use) and sizing inconsistency within the kit itself, though most users find workarounds by favouring specific combs.

Customer questions

Things people ask.

Q01. Will this kit work on a Yorkie or small dog under 10 lb? +

Yes — customers specifically mention Yorkies, Maltese, and cavapoos as good fits, and the smaller combs are designed for sensitive face areas. Just note that the large comb is oversized for tiny dogs; most users rely on the small and medium combs instead.

Q02. How well does it remove tear stains? +

Very well. Multiple users confirm it clears tear-stain 'eye boogers' effectively, especially when paired with a warm washcloth first. The smallest double-sided comb is praised for working around the eyes without pulling or causing stress.

Q03. Is this kit durable? +

Mixed: 26 of 42 durability mentions are positive, but 16 report issues like bent teeth or combs arriving broken. Quality seems variable by unit. Some users report using them daily without issue; others see tooth bending after moderate use.

Q04. What's the price compared to professional grooming sets? +

Customers describe this as 'half the cost' of professional kits while still performing the same job. At 4.6 stars with 5,782 reviews, the value proposition is the strongest selling point.

Q05. How many combs are in the kit, and are they all useful? +

Five pieces total: a large metal comb, small and medium combs, a double-sided comb, and a fine-tooth flea comb. Not every tool suits every dog size — some users find the pink comb redundant and the large comb too big for small breeds — but most find 3–4 pieces worth using regularly.
