I took this hairdryer with me to a wedding out of state, and and it was perfect! It's small, and quiet, but has multiple settings and puts out a LOT of heat. I have a ton of hair that's super fine, so it takes a billion years to dry, and this got it done quickly. There are multiple heat AND cool settings, as well as a couple attachments and a cleaning brush. I actually laughed when I got it out of the box because it made my old hairdryer look like a beast. It takes up SO much less space and comes with a cleaning brush. Definitely a worthwhile purchase! OH, and the cord has a Velcro strap to keep it wound! Wiiinnnnn!
