Why Revlon would import a dryer with lead issues is something I don't understand. If I have to wash my hands after using the dryer, what about all the surfaces the cord touches (sink, counter, towels)? The dryer itself works great, but the lead issue scares me.

The disadvantage is you have to press on button while you style. It makes my arm and finger tired.

I bought this for My Honey after extensive researach. I selected it because the advertising says it has a cord that swivels. Don't believe it. The cord is fixed, does not turn, and twists and tangles as badly as any other dryer. A simple case of false advertising.

I have owned several brands of blow dryers over the years and this one is by far, the best!

Bought this a few days ago at Wal-Mar ($24.) and since I've gone through five dryers in the last 3 years, I'm hoping this one will last a bit longer. The last dryer I bought at Costco and paid $35 and turned out to be a cumbersome piece of junk; it bit the dust recently after about a year of use.

This model is nicely designed: feels balanced in your hand, it's light, and my favorite part of it: the index-finger button that reduces heat (actually, causes the heat element to go off altogether) is a very light-touch switch that's easy to use and doesn't make your finger tired. This is what happens with most models: they have a very tightly-sprung button that make your finger or thumb tired after a short time.
Plus, when you click on this index-finger switch, the speed of the fan (air flow) goes up significantly because the heat element is now off.

A good product to start with; we'll see how long it lasts.

The hair dryer was great for about a year until today when sparks flew all over the place and it looked like it was about to set on fire. Appliances should always have an auto shutoff capability if there's a power issue. Very frightening experience.

Overall I am satisfied with this dryer. I have alot of hair, but it is color treated so it is on the dry side and dries easily. I would not recommend this dryer for someone who has alot of hair or hair that takes awhile to dry. This dryer is much quieter than my last one.

I recently bought his blow dryer and to my surprise when I use it it sends out huge sparks and smoke towards my head.... pretty dangerous in my opinion, I don't reccomend it.
