"very disappointed"

"it is also really noisy!"

"was a little disappointed that it’s not as easy to use as it looks very noisy and gets hot on the end where you have to hold it needs a lot of getting used to"

"my only problem is how to put volume into my hair which is naturally flat thin and lifeless but this is down to my skills or lack thereof and not the tools 🙈"

"it worked really well until it broken down after just 3 months"

"only negative is cool setting isn’t cool and it would be nice to have a proper cool shot after drying my hair to smooth the cuticles even more"

"it is somewhat loud imagine a cheap hairdryer that you get in a hotel room"

"my drying time was 10 min normally 30 40 + streightening "

"originally bought a cheaper version and after i used a few times started smoking and stopped working"

"the dryer brush is very heavy so if you have long thick hair be sure to prepare by lifting weights for a few months before using"

"it is a little heavy and at first i did end up with arm ache but that has passed now"

"it gets slightly heavy when you are holding it but i just have a little rest if i need too"

"it really is unwieldy and rather heavy"

"it’s probably my hair type though as i have midlength hair that is quite heavy"

"another waste to add to my collection of hair appliances"

"i have bought similar products and have been really disappointed but this brush beats them all"

"normally i would have to blow dry until my hair becomes a frizzy mess then use the straighteners to look decent enough to leave the house"

"after a few hours my hair was a tangly mess"

"i have tendonitis in my right hand and found that holding a hairdryer in one hand and using a hairbrush in the other was really painful so this has really helped"

"there are two heat settings but the low setting takes forever to dry my hair so i use the high setting"

"i was worried that it was expensive in case it was rubbish but i haven’t been disappointed and if it lasts a good amount of time then the price is about right"

"really love the finish of this product a proper salon quality blow dry"

"bought this the other day and was quite sceptical that it would work as described"

"so disappointed really"

"was a surprise gift for my daughter totally ruined"

"i have had this style in the past an inverted bob and have always struggled to get that salon blow dry look we all have been craving for"

"after reading the comments i was excited to try this out only to be sorely disappointed"

"absolutely frustrating very poor for the money"

"i have the babylis pro blow dry tool which is small enough to curl over but the size of this is too chunky to do that its also heavier so i just turn in the ends"

"often i ended up with sore arms but the hair still looked terrible from behind"

"i thought it may be good but i have long hair and it took forever to dry"

"it does get hot and is quite noisy but very easy to use and my hair feels incredible!"

"as someone with fibromyalgia i had pretty much given up on trying to blow dry my hair"

"my hair looked fabulous like a salon blow dry and i was thrilled but even though it was absolutely dry it frizzed really quickly so had to use my ghd’s which was disappointing"

"i can't use a blow dryer as it makes my hair extremely fizzy and it looks like i've stuck a fork into an outlet so i always air dry my hair which makes it look really sad and it just hangs down like spaghetti with no volume"

"and on those days were i am late for work whoops using this and a standard blow dryer together and it takes less than 5 mins to dry to perfection!"

"i'm usually very sceptical of these type of blow dry brush appliances as some i have tried in the past have tangled my hair or make it frizzy"

"anyway i'd definitely recommend for beginners lazy people like me and if you're more talented than me maybe you'll have better luck"

"week 1 loved it but felt heavy and took same amount of time to style my hair the hairdyer roubd brush way"

"how ever i got a fake product didn't even work"

"it may be dries hair quickly but add a lot of frizz that gives a rough ugly look"

"i only received this today but on using it i wouldnt rate it higher than the babyliss big hair 50mm that i have its ok but thats it"

"however i soon saw tiny little broken hairs sticking up on my head and when i checked the brush i found hairs that had been ripped out stuck in the join between the main part and the hand hold on the end and after pulling hair out the brush i found hairs with burnt ends"

"its a little chunky to hold and not exactly graceful to use but honestly my hair looks like i've been for a pricey 'blow out'"

"only issue is its big awkward to hold for long periods"

"i have found the best method is to dry my roots with a conventional hairdryer and rough dry the rest of my hair to about 60%"

"you actually have to stop using it as it is quite awkward it is in a very awkward place at the bottom of the handle"

"my hands are small and i need two hands at times to use the dryer but overall it was not a major issue"

"cool setting doesn't work"

"even though i used the low heat setting it has still had a detrimental affect on my fine locks!"

"i was very worried that my hair would frizz or get extremely tangled"

"on top of which it doesn't seem damaging as the heat wasn't very high on that setting and it only took me about 7 mins to dry my hair"

"i find the fullness last longer and even feels bouncier for a couple of days"

"so good to use now it's getting colder no more going to work with wet hair a true game changer!"

"my hair breaks very badly and i'm trying not to use straighteners so i'm pretty desperate and keep buying different things in the hope they will be kind to my hair"

"it’s sittign there collecting dust at the moment"

"i would suspect continued repetitive use may cause damage"

"i've made that mistake and baught £19 version made from cheap plastic and it is not actually doi g anything apart from noise"

"only criticism would be i don't like my hair styled straight and this is verging more on straight with my hair rather than the bouncy wavy large curls i'm wanting but i think with practice i can get this look"

"i find it relatively easy to use only real qualms being the bulky handle however the heat settings are very limited and pretty defunct as even on the lower heat settings the device gets extremely hot so much so that on my first use i suffered a pretty significant burn to my ear "

"i had to return this"

"no need for straighteners afterwards like i normally do to control the frizz so even less heat damage i would recommend this brush to everyone"

"but i feel at 26 i've finally got the lovely healthy shiny silky adult hair that i've always wanted"

"i was thinking of going for another very expensive brand!"

"i was initially unsure whether to order the one step hair dryer and volumiser based on a couple of the negative reviews"

"this didn't suit my hair type i have mid length thick curly hair and although it did dry my hair more straight than if i either air dried it or used a normal hair dryer it still left my hair very fluffy no matter what styling products i used and had to use my straighteners as normal so didn't save any time or cut down on styling time"

"i've used similar products before for example the babyliss one but they always overheated and turned off half way through the process plus didn't do a very good job anyway because they were too small"

"i am usually the most sceptical person when it comes to seeing things like this advertised!"

"less heat damage and a nicer blow dry recommend this to everyone"

"firstly this product does not rip your hair out as another review stated that is down to one of three things normal daily hair loss damaged hair human error"

"i have very thin hair that lacks volume and this has definitely sorted my issue!"

"it is quite big to hold though which is my only downside as it makes it quite heavy and can be noisy same as a hairdryer though!"

"the only downsides are that it's loud and bulky but trust me it makes your hair look real pretty in a much shorter time and if you use heat protectant it wont be frizzy or damaged at all and it leaves your hair looking full shiny and gorgeous"

"i think my hair has been getting a little damaged from the heat disclosure: my hair is also bleached so it's more easily damaged but this has a cooler setting which i've switched to and it has the same result just takes a fraction longer to dry"

"i initially brought a cheap one from ebay which broke quickly of course!"

"there was also a faint smell of plastic burning"

"i would suspect continued repetitive use may cause damage"

"there are a couple of little niggles: 1"

"i have alot of fine long hair half way down my back and my main problem with this is lack of volume"

"i wish i’d bought this first instead of wasting my money on the babyliss big hair rotating hot air styler which is rubbish and doesn’t grip the hair enough"

"having to blow dry it and then use a straightener can be a pain not to mention time consuming and damaging for the hair"

"i've never been able to do the hairdryer and brush thing to blow dry my hair into a style it's always been a case of just blowing frizz into it with my head upside down or whatever to get it dry then having used a million and one gadgets over the years including at least 3 types of heated or steam rollers curl magic actually burnt my hair with that one ghds this big chunky boiling hot pink thing that has a rotating barrel side and brush the other "

"i have extremely thick hair so it could just be that it couldn’t cope with this but my mum has thinner hair than me and she had the same problem!"

"my advice is really section out your hair don’t do it in large chunks"

"the brush grips well and you can dry large sections at a time"

"i have really thick coarse hair that is naturally curly frizzy and i can only get it nice by using hair straighteners which i have done for many years the inevitable result being dry damaged hair"

"i have really thick mid le gth hair and it often proves hard blow drying then straightening and it kills my arms"

"i must say it will take me a bit to learn how to use this properly as everyone on tiktok had a flawless blowout appearance however mine lacked the tidyness they had but i blame this on my ability to style my hair however being stuck in semi lockdown this has given me a new task to learn"

"as i age it is more difficult for me to blow dry my long hair"

"the handle is wide so a thinner handle would be better"

"negative point for amazon as i don't think the delivery guys or the concierge have to know what i'm buying specially when it is not cheap"

"all i need now is a case to keep it safe and damage free"

"one negative point i've found is that the on off switch is quite stiff"

"anyway i'd definitely recommend for beginners lazy people like me and if you're more talented than me maybe you'll have better luck"

"i have really thick coarse hair that is naturally curly frizzy and i can only get it nice by using hair straighteners which i have done for many years the inevitable result being dry damaged hair"

"it does tend to get a little hot on the high setting but it can be turned down so not a huge issue"

"also the instruction leaflet is very basic"

"not to forget you need to stuff your ears with cotton buds to protect your ears from going deaf it is that loud!"

"i still find it slightly difficult to hold when styling the back of my hair but perhaps i am just not used to it yet"

"however despite trying many different volume boosting products it does not survive a nights sleep and my hair is flat again"

"i have fine short hair and found the dryer made my hair fly away its also very big and difficult to handle with shoulder pain or arthritis"

"i have very bleached hair that can look a little frizzy when air dried this product gives a much smoother silkier finish than a brush and hair dryer do"

"i have a short graduated bob so wondered if it would be too short to use dryer on but i needn't have worried"

"hairdressers charge me extra for cuts colours"

"i bought this hairdryer with very little expectations as i have extremely curly 3b hair which i love and it has always taken me a minimum of an hour to blow dry and straighten my hair if i want to wear it straight or in a loose curl"

"it gets slightly heavy when you are holding it but i just have a little rest if i need too"

"i have shoulder length thin frizzy hair that once blow dried looks lifeless and limp"

"i watched few videos on yt before buying before i made a decision ad i dont like to spend this kind of money on stuff i am unsure about but this was definitely money well spent :"

"i cannot hold my hands up while curling my hair without getting tired!"

"i have never been able to blow dry my hair using the hairdryer & brush my hair is very thick long and frizzy and my arms felt like they were dropping off after 10 minutes so have always rough dried and straightened my hair"

"i liked the product for 10 minutes before the dryer cut out and then didn’t work again"

"the down side of the handle brush is rather bulky and the blower is noisy"

"it’s big enough to separate the hair in chunky pieces not those small small partitions"

"like many of the other reviews i was unsure whether this was just another gimmick that gave false hope for easy styling for those of us not blessed with the styling gene"

"it has 2 speeds but there is no separate heat control so if you have thick hair and want it on the more powerful speed you have to have it hotter as well which was quite hot and i would rather have had it on a cooler setting at the highest speed"

"i find it relatively easy to use only real qualms being the bulky handle however the heat settings are very limited and pretty defunct as even on the lower heat settings the device gets extremely hot so much so that on my first use i suffered a pretty significant burn to my ear "

"i have me and fibromyalgia so it can really hurt holding hairdryer too"

"it arrived box had looked as if had been opened and i can only thank luck that it did rain as it was left outside our front door"

"however exactly one year after purchase from amazon with regular but light use this ground to a slow alarming halt accompanied by a burning smell and sparks actually flying out of it"

"this product is good but in my case i need to dry the roots with a normal hair dryer before attempting to use this"

"and it’s noisy too"

"did research on youtube videos thought hmm will give me a straight look ladies it will be straight but do not expect the straightener magic it is going to give you nice blow dry dries hair quickly than using brush and hair dryer"

"i’ve no patience for the hairdryer and round brush method of blow drying my hair and too lazy to straighten my hair"

"only thing i find bit uncomfortable is the size of the handle sometimes makes my hand hurt"

"there was also a faint smell of plastic burning"

"firstly this product does not rip your hair out as another review stated that is down to one of three things normal daily hair loss damaged hair human error"

"i've never been able to use a brush dryer before found them unwieldy didn't like the results hair always got tangled around but i love this one"

"i can’t use this product in blow drying some stuff"

"waste of money!"

"my last one not revlon had multiple attachments but the pressure put on the clip made it snap thus rendering it useless!"

"i can highly recommend this hair dryer i have long and very stubborn frizzy hair that is very hard to maintain"

"doesn’t dry as quickly as using a hairdryer and round brush so be prepared to hold it in place for a long time and keep going over it until it’s fully dry achey arms as well because the thing is huge!"

"i have very coarse hair which is left down to dry is very curly"

"i use it dry as well if i haven't bothered styling and whilst it isn't as good as drying from wet it's still an amazing difference!"

"i have thick damaged hair after years of bleaching"

"i have used brazilian blow dry's straighteners another styler called big hair which blow dries your hair but moves while it does so"

"this product had snapped all my hair and i'm looking like i'm losing my hair"

"i used to hate doing it before and usually gave up half way through and just end up rough drying my hair to get it all over with"

"they advised me that the retailer point of sale is liable for faulty goods within the first 24 months i have advised amazon of this and will let you know how i get on"

"i have fibromyalgia and with the pain in neck and shoulders i find it difficult to dry my hair"

"the same problems add to it that the device itself gets hot"

"the styler itself is not too heavy so unlike a hairdryer my arm didnt get sore at all but that may be down to all the arm workouts i’ve been doing throughout lockdown but from no visible arm muscles i’d say it’s just that the styler is very lightweight"

"she has thick hair so doesn't worry about volume"

"negative point for amazon as i don't think the delivery guys or the concierge have to know what i'm buying specially when it is not cheap"

"with this product i can blow dry and left with no frizz that needs straightening afterwards my fringe being an exception the brush can dry my fringe but too chunky to style i started using it occasionally to now using it all the time as a replacement for my hair dryer straightener combo as my hair is now left straight glossy and lots of volume!"

"i can not fault this product!"

"i have curly hair 3b 3c and this leaves my hair completely straight if i use the higher heat setting or wavier if i use the lower heat setting "

"was sadly disappointed with this"

"having to blow dry it and then use a straightener can be a pain not to mention time consuming and damaging for the hair"

"i am very disappointed in this one"

"i have thick frizzy hair and honestly i keep it tied up all the time because to blow dry and straighten it would take over an hour"

"no more faffing around with heavy hairdryers and brushes at the same time"

"i have thick naturally curly hair which to dry and style took an age i’d usually have to let my hair part dry then blow dry for 20 mins then use straighteners for 15 mins to get a half decent style"

"my hair is fragile so i was worried about breakage but there's no need my hair doesn't get caught in this"

"it's so easy to use you honestly can't go wrong with it!"

"my friend has the dyson curler which i was very impressed with but i wanted to find an item which was affordable and still had great results"

"for someone who came close to buying the dyson airwrap i just didn't have the money!"

"i was toying with spending £350 on the dyson hairdryer but thought i’d try this first"

"i have very bleached hair that can look a little frizzy when air dried this product gives a much smoother silkier finish than a brush and hair dryer do"

"this was so easy to use and so quick too i used for the first time this morning and now have a bouncy blow dry no aching arms and no salon trip!"

"i have alot of fine long hair half way down my back and my main problem with this is lack of volume"

"you will not regret this dryer for a second"

"then i clip into sections and dry from the bottom up leaving the very top till last and drying it away from my face"

"the hot setting is very hot so make sure to use heat protection i wouldn't use it every day as i would worry about damage but twice a week and tend to switch to the cooler settings for the weaker areas of my hair"

"i cannot se the settings without my reading glasses the slder hurts my finger and it is impossible for me to use the col shot as the slider is too stiff to use while actually drying my hair"

"i've made that mistake and baught £19 version made from cheap plastic and it is not actually doi g anything apart from noise"

"my only problem is how to put volume into my hair which is naturally flat thin and lifeless but this is down to my skills or lack thereof and not the tools 🙈"

"it is somewhat loud imagine a cheap hairdryer that you get in a hotel room"

"cumbersome to use roots took ages to dry the end result was fluffy and flat"

"was difficult to use on towel dried hair as it's bigger than it looks in the picture but would probably recommend for people with short shoulder length thinner hair or a bob"

"isnt frizzy and has good volume at the roots my friends have borrowed and also purchased"

"only thing i would say is don't use it on wet hair it will take forever!"

"straighteners just damaged my hair so i rarely use them"

"big difficult to handle"

"so easy to use doesnt rip hair out like the other brand and doesnt take as long"

"the oil is great to use before blow dry and after hair is styled to keep it frizz free and the cream helps shape the hair while it's being blow dried"

"isnt frizzy and has good volume at the roots my friends have borrowed and also purchased"

"would like heat and speed settings high speed low temp is my preferred and this doesn’t offer that leaves my bleached hair really dry"

"i never use it on the hottest setting as i watched you tube videos before purchasing and they all said the setting was too hot and would damage the hair"

"i suffer with arthritis and find it very difficult to manage both a hairdryer and a brush"

"i always store my leads safely to prevent damage to them so i'm really disappointed for this to be happening already"

"i have very fine hair but a lot of it which makes it heavy so despite trying all the ways to give it volume it never lasted always going flat after an hour or so due to the weight of it"

"however despite trying many different volume boosting products it does not survive a nights sleep and my hair is flat again"

"i rarely blow dry it with a normal hairdryer because it puffs out and looks ridiculous so i end up having to throw it into a pony tail"

"it does tend to get a little hot on the high setting but it can be turned down so not a huge issue"

"the dryer brush is very heavy so if you have long thick hair be sure to prepare by lifting weights for a few months before using"

"was apprehensive at first as i have frizzy and wavy hair but this gave me the best blow dry"

"so easy to use doesnt rip hair out like the other brand and doesnt take as long"

"i will no longer dread washing my hair now"

"however thus far i think it is a good styler particularly for someone like myself who is not able to style my hair nor use a blow dryer"

"the thing is my hair is so thick and past shoulder length that it's always been a nightmare to dry and style until now!"

"i have shoulder length hair and finding my top layers tricky because they’re the longest i can’t really get to my roots before rolling up too much so that the brush doesn’t slide out"

"the noise it makes is crazy loud"

"i always have such trouble drying my hair using a brush and hairdryer and never get a good finish"

"so bit hesitant at first as mixed reviews"

"i dry my roots with my crappy back up hair dryer and when my hair is semi dry i click it into sections and dry it starting with the lower layer working up"

"having tried to use a roll brush myself with failed attempts i had given up"

"had a similar one from bayliss but wasnt half as good as this one!"

"the only downsides are that it's loud and bulky but trust me it makes your hair look real pretty in a much shorter time and if you use heat protectant it wont be frizzy or damaged at all and it leaves your hair looking full shiny and gorgeous"

"i would give it no stars if i could :"

"i always dry my hair using a regular hair dryer until it’s around 80% dry and then use this tool to complete the blow dry"

"i like that it can dry and style your hair in one and it also leaves the hair with a nice healthy sheen in my opinion"

"i literally achieved hairdressers blow dry in 5 minutes and my hair which were nut cut for 3 months look like i just came out of hairdressers"

"originally bought a cheaper version and after i used a few times started smoking and stopped working"

"summary : if you suffer from flat hair and want to give it volume i would definitely recommend this product"

"hair not as straight sleeker silky feel more coarse"

"i have long thick wavy hair that gets frizzy if i don’t dry it properly"

"its a little chunky to hold and not exactly graceful to use but honestly my hair looks like i've been for a pricey 'blow out'"

"i used to sit every time i washed my hair and pin curl my hair which was long and tedious and results wise was pretty hit or miss"

"it took me less than 30 minutes drying with a nice finished no frizzy and with volume no the boring straight hair "

"to hold it a bit difficult but its ok"

"the only drawback is that the brush is heavy but i think practice will make easy to hold"

"the dryer was too weak for my thick coarse curly hair"

"makes the ends silky which is what i wanted as i have lots of split ends"

"also something to note it’s ridiculously loud sounds like you’re stood on a airport runway!"

"it dosent dry my hair dead straight but it is definitely a lot less frizzy and easy to straighten"

"i have short thick hair undercut with a bit of length this dryer volumiser certainly gives it volume"

"ok actually upon using it first i was a bit concerned that my hair looked no different"

"highly recommend this heated brush which makes my hair look like its been professionally blow dried"

"its cumbersome & heavy"

"the oil is great to use before blow dry and after hair is styled to keep it frizz free and the cream helps shape the hair while it's being blow dried"

"when i read the reviews of this hairdryer i ordered it straight away thinking i had found the answer to my hair problems"

"initially sceptical as my shoulder length curly hair is so difficult to manage it’s dry from bleach and very coarse so gets really frizzy after a blow dry even with a salon drier i have a parlux 2000 "

"but the brush is so easy to use it is heavy and bulky and that takes a bit of getting"

"i actually can’t belive this has just given me a salon quality blow dry in 20 mins 45 mins plus for my usual dry straighten regime"

"i can't use a blow dryer as it makes my hair extremely fizzy and it looks like i've stuck a fork into an outlet so i always air dry my hair which makes it look really sad and it just hangs down like spaghetti with no volume"

"i bought this hairdryer with very little expectations as i have extremely curly 3b hair which i love and it has always taken me a minimum of an hour to blow dry and straighten my hair if i want to wear it straight or in a loose curl"

"it aches my wrist when using"

"i have severely damaged bleached hair lightest blonde from black and i have 4 rows of hair extensions as well so it usually takes me an hour to blow dry it meanwhile with this its not longer than 20 minutes shortly after showering!"

"the hot setting is very hot so make sure to use heat protection i wouldn't use it every day as i would worry about damage but twice a week and tend to switch to the cooler settings for the weaker areas of my hair"

"tried to use it to dry my hair on its own but it took too long for my liking and i don’t think it made a difference to the volume and i have thin hair"

"it is bigger than in the pictures so if you have short hair i wouldn't recommend it"

"also i think it works best on mostly dry very well towel dried hair"

"after using it i found my hearing was a bit messed up because it was beside my ears for about 10 15 minutes and was very loud however the pms was away by then so it didn’t bother me too much"

"i need to blow dry then straighten then give my hair teasing volume normally but with the revlon pro it's all done it just makes my life 50 times easier i cant say enough how satisfied i am worth every penny it gives me dry hair faster than my hair dryer straight hair and loads of volume too"

"it’s that bouncy swingy hair that i only get following a saloon blow dry"

"it's a lot bigger than i was anticipating and for just below shoulder length hair users need to expect a blow dry only rather than a curly blow dry"

"its not worth the hype"

"unfortunately the 2nd brush replacement was damaged too and again it was the same top bristles they were bent out of shape"

"i have very thick curly when wet frizzy when dry hair"

"i will never use a regular blow dryer again i would 100% recommend it"

"i have a 3 year old granddaughter that hates having her hair blow dried it was so much quicker and easier with this and the result in her words was awesome"

"only downside is it’s a bit noisy and it gets hot after a few minutes usage"

"highly recommend i have thick hair and it looks like i’ve a had a professional blow dry!"

"while it's not particularly heavy definitely lighter than my blow drier it can get tiresome after a while especially if you have long hair and need to stretch your arms to accommodate for the length as you try to roll and pull the brush"

"can't believe i held off so long!"

"i don't ever leave reviews but am so thrilled with this hot brush i needed to share!"

"the oil is great to use before blow dry and after hair is styled to keep it frizz free and the cream helps shape the hair while it's being blow dried"

"it’s not a small tool "

"i have long hair waist length and all the same length and was unable to achieve the desired blow dried look instead it was just basic blow dried almost straight"

"when i use this it makes my hair like no frizz no shampoo could do that but this can!"

"only thing i find bit uncomfortable is the size of the handle sometimes makes my hand hurt"

"sadly this thing is not really good at drying hair so the roots and the back stay damp and in the end dries curly and frizzy"

"how ever i got a fake product didn't even work"

"i have tried all type of hair gadgets because for me nothing beats the old hair dryer and brush and still think that nothing does but this brush does the trick"

"very disappointed"

"bought the same one again as the fan on the the previous one went really noisy"

"this drier is a bit big heavy so not ideal for those with weaker arms however it’s really powerful not very noisy and has reduced my usual drying time"

"my only problem with the product is that the middle heat setting is basically cold!"

"was used the vs classic hair dryer before same 2000w power which unfortunately broken down"

"the only negative is the rather flimsy attachment"

"this drier is a bit big heavy so not ideal for those with weaker arms however it’s really powerful not very noisy and has reduced my usual drying time"

"i bought this to replace another 2200w hairdryer that i felt was quite heavy"

"i did use it around once a week for the last 4 month and then it started smelling really burned and stopped working"

"feels solid build yet not very heavy"

"cons: a little heavy this has been a reliable decent hairdryer used daily for 15 20 mins for about 8 years"

"it is big and slightly heavy as most professional stylers tend to be"

"although this product has very good reviews i find it rather heavy and the buttons for operating are placed where you want to hold it so make use awkward"

"horrible hairdryer it's extremely loud and quite heavy"

"otherwise it works great looks good and is not excessively heavy or noisy"

"heat cuts out after 5 minutes and then comes back on later after you’ve left for work a definite fire hazard"

"i would not recommend it as it is extremely fragile and heavy"

"i did use it around once a week for the last 4 month and then it started smelling really burned and stopped working"

"the nozzle is irritating but the filter coming off means your hair is sucked into the fan and turned into dreadlocks"

"the nozzle is irritating but the filter coming off means your hair is sucked into the fan and turned into dreadlocks"

"i returned it straight away though and bought this model again as the more expensive dryer wasn't powerful enough even though the wattage was higher and took ages to dry my hair"

"very powerful and i like that there are separate speed and heat switches as most hairdryers these days seem to have one combined switch which is just annoying"

"you have to wait 10 minutes until it starts working again which is very frustrating"

"absolutely terrible and unsafe: overheated the cable and melted its own plug!"

"cons heavy"

"also the nozzle falls off frequently and is too hot to touch to put back on"

"as both had the same issue i think there must be a problem with the design"

"bought this after wasting money on the remington d3010 hair dryer 2000 w also reviewed "

"it's not a lightweight dryer but it's not too heavy either it just feels substantial and well made"

"my only jiggle is the back does start to come loose and then falls off"

"£40 and under because it seems impossible to pick one that people don't report burn outs flames issuing forth broken motors and other faults"

"this should be more expensive"

"the v shaped styling head that you can attach to the nose of the hairdryer to give more precision the point i guess with the attachment is to focus the air flow to smooth the hair and direct the air to dry quicker and to prevent fluffy hair"

"the main thing i wish i had known was how stupid the air vent slits are either side of the attachable cone"

"as stated in other reviews yes this hairdryer is heavier than other hairdryers i've had in the past but once you've used it a couple of times you completely forget the weight of the product and i haven't had a problem with it"

"i needed a replacement for my old babybliss which burnt out with a nasty smell recently"

"good weight not too light but not so heavy a weak wrist can't handle it"

"this drier is a bit big heavy so not ideal for those with weaker arms however it’s really powerful not very noisy and has reduced my usual drying time"

"the only downside to the order was the slow delivery taking a week"

"i spent ages reading reviews & comparing hairdryers after my previous trusty babyliss dryer blew up recently"

"all this said for short none styled hair who wish it to just dry for example my 3yr old boy who i just blast with the dryer to simply dry it it is perfectly fine"

"she was pretty shocked when it happened and it could have been really dangerous"

"i can manage ok but would think if you have arthritis or weaker wrists it could be a slight problem"

"the cold blast button is actually cold and really good"

"hair does not frizz and does not make insane amount of noise"

"had to bye new hair dryer as the diffusor on the old one had broken tried to get a replacement but too many models without diffusors found a diffusor but when arrived it did not fit complained to babyliss and in the end had to buy this model but this did not accept the new diffusor complained again and they sent me a diffusor that did fit"

"the dryer itself is reasonably heavy but you soon get used to that and the buttons are placed in a position its easy to switch settings accidentally but that seems to be a flaw of many dryers"

"£40 and under because it seems impossible to pick one that people don't report burn outs flames issuing forth broken motors and other faults"

"i am really disappointed as i would expect a hair dryer would last more than 2 years but 5 stars for a safety feature that works so no fires explosions or burnt hair!"

"the heat setings are just right: the medium is warm and the hot is great for styling"

"i have ridiculously thick hair and this dryer gets it dry so quickly"

"not sure why there are holes at the sides of the concentrator either the air is blown in a powerful main flow but these holes give two additional streams of air that dont seem to have a purpose"

"£40 and under because it seems impossible to pick one that people don't report burn outs flames issuing forth broken motors and other faults"

"the cold button does exactly what it says give you good airflow of cold air to finish off drying and keep your hair style in shape"

"she has thick long hair and it's the only dryer shesn tried in ages that actually dried it all quickly without any burnt bits lol good all round hairdryer that's cheap too!"

"not effective returning product"

"dangerous hairdryer which has gone in the bin after i’ve had to chop chunks of my matted hair off"

"the heat settings aren't too ferocious so there's less chance of damaging hair"

"i tried a lightweight version of the dryer with switches in a different position on the handle but ditched it after a day and ordered this one for the replacement model"

"bought to replace my wife's dead hairdryer same model she loved her old speed pro 2200 which has lasted her years and years"

"some folk have mentioned nozzle back cover falling off easily i've not experienced that it's built very well"

"its a mighty little device and when the wife is not using it or i'm bored i use it to blow the dust off my gadgets dry my clothes shoes pose it as a ray gun and see the cat freak out!"

"this hairdryer was never as powerful or efficient as i had expected and now just 2 months after i bought it it overheats within 30 seconds drops to minimal blowing power and emits a fishy smell of burning plastic and then just konks out"

"the heat settings aren't too ferocious so there's less chance of damaging hair"

"doesn't seem to get as hot as the cheap hairdrier it replaces though it performs up to par"

"the hottest setting isn't actually that hot but i'm taking that as a good thing given the tendency for cheap hairdryers to overheat and melt things"

"returned as faulty no problem!"

"only slight niggle is that the hair dryer is quite heavy around 800g but if you see it as a bit of a workout its fab!"

"on one side the quite long cord length adds bulkiness to the product while on the other side it offers more freedom of movement"

"my only problem with the product is that the middle heat setting is basically cold!"

"would be much better if the nozzle didn’t keep falling off and the filter stayed on"

"three blowing speeds are good as i only use gentle heat and blowing on my aunts very fine hair"

"it is a bit heavy i guess but nothing you don't get used to"

"extremely dangerous product"

"bought this 13 months ago and guess what its gone wrong!"

"had to contact babyliss direct who asked me to return it for repair"

"not sure why there are holes at the sides of the concentrator either the air is blown in a powerful main flow but these holes give two additional streams of air that dont seem to have a purpose"

"verry poor quality"

"the plastic nozzle has melted and falling off all the time!"

"i have extremely long hair it doesn't overheat when i use it"

"it's certainly heavy as other reviews suggest but my hair's fairly short"

"old babyliss broke so picked this up"

"it's a good hairdryer and i'm not bothered by the weight i wish the funnel for the end were a little more secure though it twists around and falls off quite frequently"

"a real shame as the product had so many great reviews which is what made me pick it in the first place!"

"it turns out that the heat has blistered and warped the plastic so it doesn't fit any more"

"hairdryer was good while it lasted but after a few months the hairdryer refused to turn on so had to purchase a new hairdryer"

"although the dryer is good it is not for for blow drying at all!"

"it felt really uncomfortable to handle"

"i'm sure we've been unlucky and that this was a one off"

"i have found this hairdryer heavy other reviews have said the same i wish i had taken heed"

"unable to return"

"the only negative is the rather flimsy attachment"

"unfortunately even before the one year mark it overheats and stops working"

"the filter on the back keeps falling off"

"i'm sure i could get the time down if i sectioned it properly but i'm too lazy for that"

"i had a less powerful babyliss before this and it took almost an hour so 20 mins is much better : :"

"all this said for short none styled hair who wish it to just dry for example my 3yr old boy who i just blast with the dryer to simply dry it it is perfectly fine"

"horrible hairdryer it's extremely loud and quite heavy"

"it has lasted only few months!"

"wouldn't buy again"

"it does the job but i would not buy it again"

"well that worked with the older style anyway so i assumed that would happen with this model and attachment however i have found it better to have nothing on the nose of the dryer which allows no control and no smooth effect"

"it is not too noisy and i like that the cord is very long"

"its's not hot enough"

"it's possibly the best value for your money you could get out there as it features ionic and ceramic technology helping your hair to stay non frizzy"

"only slight niggle is that the hair dryer is quite heavy around 800g but if you see it as a bit of a workout its fab!"

"front funnel never stays on back panel fell off immediately too"

"i have long thin hair but in abundance so it usually takes a while to dry without this"

"feels a bit cheaply built though"

"i have extremely long hair it doesn't overheat when i use it"

"didn’t work when it arrived wouldn’t turn on"

"in fact i have had bad hair days since owning this dryer because the v shaped head is a joke it has a slot on either side of the attachment which allows a lot of air through what is the point in that which fluff up and dry the bits you were not drying!"

"this hairdryer is heavy!"

"amazing bought for my 11 year old daughter and she really loves it very long cable lightweight and really good price"

"now will have no hairdryer for at least 10 days until they repair it"

"my hair's mostly dry in 5 minutes completely dry in under 10 minutes"

"the nozzle has melted on mine making it useless for styling"

"i have very thick mixed black asian hair and i have always had to spend copious amounts of time getting my hair dry as it is very long and thick and curly"

"the dryer itself is reasonably heavy but you soon get used to that and the buttons are placed in a position its easy to switch settings accidentally but that seems to be a flaw of many dryers"

"for those with short hair in particular those who style their hair using the hair dryer i must say that this device cannot be the best option since the airflow applies a strong pressure on hair and styling can result a bit difficult"

"i have shoulder lenght hair that is like a sponge so drying it has never been fun!"

"the first one bought in 2011 and used almost every other day to dry my long hair is still good but as i lived in canada the plug and voltage are not uk compatible"

"i have long hair but a low maintenance style"

"has a very long lead which is good especially for drying the dog :d"

"for the occasional dry after a shower before bed for my son this fits the bill and doesn't break the bank"

"there are 2 power settings along with 3 temperature settings plus the true cold shot button which works as advertised"

"on closer inspection the nozzle has partly melted inside rendering the dryer only operable with no nozzle"

"the high heat setting is too hot and if you are wearing jewellery it burns you"

"the nozzle only clicks on and the filter to the back of the hairdryer is very loosely screwed on it's fallen off a few times!"

"not even lasted a year before it over heats and shuts off half way drying my hair!"

"still doing the job though so couldn't ask for more"

"i finally gave up reading reviews and bought this"

"she has thick long hair and it's the only dryer shesn tried in ages that actually dried it all quickly without any burnt bits lol good all round hairdryer that's cheap too!"

"on the medium setting it's just a cold air"

"so it's either cold or extremely hot which is fine for my hair but not so good for drying an extremely sensitive 3 yr s old hair!"

"now it only takes 10 minutes"

"the detachable nozzle comes off easily if knocked but that's something i can live with as its only my fringe i use the attachment for"

"dislike th front nozzel is loose it keeps moving around when using when suing the hair dryer"

"i like it wuick dry"

"turbo dry effect very quick to dry hair but doesn’t ‘cook’ it"

"fairly quiet in operation as well"

"sent back to amazon as a faulty we'll try a different brand next time!"

"used it 3 4 times then it wouldn't switch off but made no sound had no idea it was on came back later and it was scalding"

"within a month it had lost half its power and would glow red hot then within 4 months pop and it was broken"

"it also goes between hot cold air on its own which is annoying"

"i got this as a present for my wife's christmas she only started using it at the end of january now it is making some strange noises like the fan is maybe loose"

"doesn't feel too heavy but it's my personal observation besides you won't use it too long as it's super quick and efficient"

"a little too heavy to hold makes your arm hurt"

"the handle has no grips at all apart from the buttons which sort of get in the way and because of the weight it may slip from your hand"

"my hair's mostly dry in 5 minutes completely dry in under 10 minutes"

"other reviewers have complained about the hairdryer over heating but i've had no such problems"

"after three months of family use the nozzle no longer stays attached to the dryer"

"nothing to complain about"

"i have mostly straight long thick hair halfway down my back"

"the hottest setting isn't actually that hot but i'm taking that as a good thing given the tendency for cheap hairdryers to overheat and melt things"

"the cold air button is a nice feature though i have only used it a few times"

"absolutely terrible and unsafe: overheated the cable and melted its own plug!"

"the hot setting is really hot i hardly use it even though it's a ceramic dryer so won't burn your hair"

"my last babyliss hairdryer packed up after approx 12 years of being used every day and so i wanted to stick with babyliss as i believe they offer a quality product"

"contacting amazon for faulty item return which i hope will be honoured"

"the hairdryer is too heavy to my liking"

"as both had the same issue i think there must be a problem with the design"

"been using it now for a while to dry the kids hair and they love it"

"really bad quality"

"really very impressed my friends have ordered one too as they were so impressed!"

"it turns out that the heat has blistered and warped the plastic so it doesn't fit any more"

"i've actually owned the same dryer for a couple of years and it's still going strong but purchased this one recently for my daughter as she has admired my one so much"

"would reccomend to anyone!"

"she has thick long hair and it's the only dryer shesn tried in ages that actually dried it all quickly without any burnt bits lol good all round hairdryer that's cheap too!"
