My old dryer had only one setting, hot and no cold buttons so drying my 4yr old hair became a chore and was constantly burning her little scalp! This dryer came with 3 settings. Hot, warm and cold! Amazing they gave u An in between setting. It also has a high and low setting. My daughter loves to dry her hair now and it's not a painful job. She actually wants to wash her hair every night now just so I'll dry her hair! This also comes with a 4 year warranty and has 2 different attachments for different types of hair! It's heavy duty and not easily breakable! I will continue using this!
