    Worked Great...While It Lasted.

    After my Videl Sassoon dryer died, my friend gave me this blow dryer as a gift. At first I was a little skeptic, for having worked in a beauty supply store I was always instructed to purchase "high quality," AKA more expensive, "professional" dryers because apparently they work better and last longer. My Videl as well as this Conaire model seemed to prove that theory correct....read more The dryer is very powerful, which may be a negative for those with dry or thin hair. Personally, the power this dryer generates tested to be a major flaw in its performance. After using it only few times and for approximately 20 minutes each time and storing it in a non-humid environment (humidity erodes the mechanics in heat-styling tools) , the dryer overheated and gave off a horrific burning stench. Now I understand why specialists agree professional dryers are well worth the expense. I looked up reviews for this dryer and all users seem to give positive feedback and don't mention overheating. I'm guessing I had a defective model or the previous owner didn't handle it correctly. But while the dryer lasted it did work very well. I have long, wavy colored hair that's very prone to heat damage, but I found that this Conaire model worked styling wonders while not stressing my locks. The ceramic, ionic, or both iconic and ceramic switch is a fantastic utility that gives the user the choice of how they want the heat to manipulate their hair. (Ionic=less frizz, smooths hair shafts, lessens static/ ceramic=doesn't damage hair, adds sheen and silkiness.) Also, the straightening attachment was a great devise to smooth out those unruly sections. The Conaire was fairly heavy in weight, but nothing too over-bearing. Despite my bad experience with this product, it did work well while is lasted. For those looking for a dryer that's comparable to the professional lines without looking to spend a fortune, the Conaire Ionic Styler is the one for you. Just make sure yours isn't defective!

    Great!

    This came with three attachments, a diffuser, concentrator, and a straightening attachment. I have naturally curly hair so the attachments are great! I get so many compliments when I straighten my hair but it used to be so time consuming I did not do it very often. This really reduces diffusing and straightening time but increases shine. Love it!

    Great for the price

    This dryer really does what it says. What I love about it is that even on the hottest setting, it's not too hot and doesn't damage my hair.

    Great Combo

    I love this blowdryer. The straightening attachment is great, b/c it has several settings. It also means 1 less item I have to try to sqeeze into my bag when I travel:)

    Could be better

    I bought it to experience the so much raved about ceramic/ion technology. Even though it does dry hair 50% faster than regular blow dryers, in my curly hair it failed to leave it silky and without frizz. The controls are akward. Will keep it as an extra.

    Love love love it.

    Bought it as an extra for visitors, but now it's the only one we use. Fast without drying out or frizzes.

    Really Great!

    My daughter's hair is VERY long and this dries it pretty fast and it looks beautiful and straight. She never has been able to get all the waves completely out, but this hair dryer does the job. We got it before all the attachments were offered. The only problem she has had is the main attachment (to straighten) broke so now all she has it the dryer itself.
