Review (5/5): and have liked the Conair Nano Silver
I've been using Conair dryers for quite a few years, and have liked the Conair Nano Silver. However, I always like to keep a new one on hand for the day the old one conks out on me. So I went shopping. The Nano Silver I have now -- my second one -- has pretty good power and heat, though not as high as I'd like, since I have fairly thick hair. But that model was no longer available. So I tried and returned one of the Conair Reel models (one of the cheaper ones) as well as the Conair Infiniti Pro. Neither could dry my hair fast enough to set a style. So I spent a little more this time and bought the Jilbere, and so far I'm delighted. I have quite a few stubborn cowlicks and waves in my fairly thick hair that usually won't go away when I try to blow-dry it into a straight bob. But the Jilbere, with its 2000 watts, first time out gave me the smooth straight hair I wanted -- almost a "salon sleek look. Now, the old Nano Silver is in the closet as a backup, because I like the Jilbere so much I can't go back. One more much-touted dryer brand I've tried is the Chi. Granted, it was one of its more moderately priced models, though higher than Conair, but it performed about like a $20 dryer.
