I love these hair dryers and have had really good luck with them. My whole family uses them daily, often twice, and they still last at least a year or longer.

If you have extremely thick and long hair, they do tend to overheat-- but mainly if you bury it deep in your hair so it can't breathe. Two women in the house use it and they have fairly thick heads of hair, and they have no problem.

I recommend the dryer heartily, but be forewarned-- the comb attatchment teeth will start to break out in a few months. YOU WILL NEED REPLACEMENT ATTATCHMENTS. They cost a few bucks each. I have never used the brush which gets poor reviews, so maybe avoid this unit if the brush is critical.

HERE IS HOW TO GET REPLACEMENT ATTATCHMENTS:

Order direct from the manufacturer here: 1-800-487-7273.

Shipping is the same price for one or many. 5 of them cost me a total of $22.00 shipped.

I read the reviews and decided I needed a second dryer just in case my other one pooped out when dashing out of the shower for work, so I bought this one. It was a good choice. Fine hair will dry rapidly but this dryer gives the hair more body and shine.
The only thing which wasn't a plus for me was the loudness of the motor when it's on medium, and high is much too shrill near your ears as you dry your hair.
It is worth the price and Amazon is a good place to make a purchase.
