5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Hair Dryer With A Stylish Design!, April 16, 2003

Significantly more quiet than my Conair 1002D model! Even though it is quiet, it blows out a large amount of air. I have shoulder-length hair. This dryer dries my hair fairly quickly.

Unlike some other dryers, this unit allows me to have warm air at high speed. (With some other units I can only get warm air at low speed or hot air at high speed). I like the independent, sliding controls--one for the heat level (cool/warm/hot) and one for the air speed (low/high).

Also, I like the fact that this dryer has 2 ionic ports. My hair feels softer and looks shinier.

My Mom bought this dryer per my recommendation. She also likes it.

I like this dryer so much that I gave my best friend one for her birthday.

I bought this hair dryer for my wife because the one she had been using was so darn loud. This one is quiet enough that we can talk while she is drying her hair without having to raise our voice much, if at all. I asked her if this one dried as good as the other dryer did and she said yes. She said she also likes that there are multiple speed and temp settings. I'm just happy she'll still be able to hear in 20 years.

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, July 7, 2003

There is no doubt the dual ionic ports of this hair dryer give it an edge over ordinary hair dryers. My hair comes out smooth and silky every time, and you can actually smell the ions... like fresh air after rain. Also, the shape of the nozzle is great for spreading the air over a round brush. But the dryer could use some improvements in my opinion:

1. Give it more power! It is 1875 watts, the same as my ordinary hair dryer, but it just doesn't blow the air as forcefully. That accounts for the quieter tone of the motor, and for the longer drying time.

2. Lose the sparkles. The rubbery surface of the dryer is great for gripping, but it is embedded with little flecks of silver glitter. Last time I wanted glitter on a hair appliance I was using it to try and make my bangs stand up higher than Susie Porter's in 1987.

3. Add a cold shot button. The cool setting works well, but it's a pain to flip the switch back and forth all the time.

Overall, an impressive hair dryer. Not recommended for people with very long or thick hair, since the high setting is still a bit wimpy.
