Review (3/5): I prefer the cheap hairdryers.
I bought this hairdryer because everyone was raving about it. I think maybe I should have stayed with my typical $20 con-air hairdryer. This thing is HEAVY! I actually weighted it one day - 3.5 pounds! That's a lot to hold while trying to dry thick, curly hair. I tend to take a break and flex my hand to get the blood flow back again so I can keep drying my hair. And the tools - useless. The big fancy box - useless. The ion - I notice no difference in my hair. Next time when my hairdryer dies out I'll take a trip back to Walmart and get a new one.
