Fine drying power and range of settings; a bit larger and heavier than I prefer. Temp in °C only
[[VIDEOID:ee380563321d6e9804db7abf6001d901]] I have a fairly utilitarian approach to hair dryers: I don't need fancy, as long as it gets the job done well and, preferably, fast. This one may be a bit more than sufficient with its degree-by-degree temperature range from 50° to 90°C (122°F to 194°F; however, temps are only given in °C on the display), hot and cool wind settings, and blower speeds from a light breeze to a light tempest.<br /><br />Note that to turn the dryer on or off you have to hold down the power button for a couple of seconds; when on, a short press of that button switches the wind between hot and cold.<br /><br />The slightly textured matte black surface feels good in the hand, although I found the uncontoured cylindrical handle wanting to rotate in my hand, with the weight of the head only somewhat balanced. It felt heavy enough that my arms would get tired holding it for as long as it takes to dry my long, thick hair.<br /><br />The diffuser has nice smooth tips and the attachments seat securely; however, they could be a little easier to swap out—arrow indicators on the pieces to show when the locking tabs are aligned would be nice. I question, too, how long the plastic locking bits will hold up if heads are interchanged frequently.<br /><br />The set comes with a storage bag and a round styling brush.<br /><br />Bottom line: Out of the gate, a good, rather large hairdryer with highly customizable settings.
