User Reviews

Excellent! 
I've been using this dryer for 16 months with no problems. It has excellent airflow and is the quietest portable dryer I have used. The only downside is that it is relatively heavy. My wife doesn't like that, so she doesn't use it, but for me the positives outweigh this one weakness. :2011-07-20 01:53:15

Best hairdryer I've ever used 
I have naturally curly, frizzy hair, and I just hate drying it because it takes so long and I get so hot from my (Hot Tools ionic) dryer. My daughter is a hair stylist and every time she does my hair I comment on how silky and smooth the end result is when she dries my hair. She kept telling me it was her Elchim 2001 hairdryer which for a while was very pricey and only available to professionals. She offered to help me purchase one but I kept putting it off because I live out of the country and didn't have time to have it shipped whenever I was visiting. I've spent a fortune on products hoping to get this same result, but the bottom line is it really is the hairdryer because I just could not get the same silky smooth end result no matter what products I used with my hair dryer. Of course combined with quality products, and used properly the Elchim is a home run. When I came to visit her this time, she told me I could find it now on Amazon.com for much less than before. I purchased one and I love it! I will never use another dryer on my hair again. :2011-07-20 01:52:32

Blows You Away  This hair dryer was recommended by my wife's salon because she needed something that was light in weight and has plenty of drying power. And just as importantly per my wife this dryer leaves one's hair shiny and manageable. Besides my wife two of our daughters also use the hair dryer and they all have long beautiful hair so this dryer is used MULTIPLE times a day during the work week and even more on weekends (our daughters love to go out LOL). Not a drawback but because of use, the dryer seems to have about a 3 year life span. Prior to this dryer the girls have purchased all the other dryers available in the retail stores but none have compared to this one. Maybe not the cheapest one out there but the price on Amazon make this worth it when looking at it over the long haul. :2011-07-20 01:52:10

Works as advertised 
I am giving this dryer five stars because it does what it says it will. So many products don't, so this is a relief. After reading all of the reviews, I expected two key things. One, that the dryer would malfunction in some way (flames flying out of it, wires in the cord breaking, etc) and two, that my hair would be dry in no time at all. So far, so good on the malfunction issue. I'm not living in fear of my dryer. To help the cord life, I attached a larger loop to the dryer so I could safely hang it on a hook (the loop hole on the dryer was too small for my hook). As far as my hair drying at warp speed, the jury is still out. My husband mentioned that he thinks he can dry our daughter's hair faster, so maybe it does. Personally, I don't see much difference in dry time from this expensive one to my BJ's cheapo purchase a few years ago. It's not a significant enough difference to justify the cost. I'm keeping this dryer for two reasons. First, it's hard to find the speed and heat combinations that this one has. I can use a warm/hot setting for my kids that won't burn their delicate skin (2 and 4 years old) and a hot/hot setting for me to dry my medium length, thick hair as fast as I can. In either case, I can use a "low blow" setting or a "high blow" setting (such technical terms I have) so I can not only control the speed at which I dry, but also the level of noise output. That brings me to my second reason for keeping it.

LOW NOISE LEVEL. The is the quietest dryer I've ever owned and the key reason I'm keeping it. I can finally dry my hair before I go to bed at night, without fear of waking the entire household. And if I use the "low blow" setting on hot heat, I can get my hair totally dry with very little noise. For me, that's worth the cost! Mine came in black, which is what I ordered. I got two filters for the back of it (I don't know why though) and the nozzle that concentrates the heat to one area. I don't use that, but I found that my old diffuser fits over this dryer and I use that quite often. I would say my hair dries much faster with the diffuser over the top. Some reviewers said the dryer is too heavy. I'm 5'1" and I don't work out (unless running after my kids counts), so I was concerned about this fact. I dry my hair pretty much daily, so weight isn't a small concern over time. But, it's not a problem. In fact, it's slightly lighter than my last dryer, so I'm happy! Overall, I would recommend this dryer to others and I would purchase it again in the future. :2011-07-20 01:51:18

best of the best 
All I am going to say is that their is no blow dryer that can compete with this blow dryer. I have owned all kinds of blow dryers and this one is the BEST! Worth every single penny!!!!!!! :2011-07-20 01:50:55

Best purchase ever 
Don't know what I was waiting for my old dryer was falling apart and my hair dresser recommended this one. Should have gotten it it sooner , it is amazing ! He also told me it is a workhorse and will last forever! :2011-07-20 01:50:37
