Stopped working within months
I liked this dryer at first, but within six months it stopped working. It had a burning smell inside. Dead. I don't know about you, but I feel like a blow dryer should last longer than that. And, who likes getting stuck without one??

Too loud
I bought this to replace a similar Andis dryer that I bought 2 years ago that konked out. This one looked similar, but was much louder. The old one was billed as being "quiet;" this one was not. A quiet hairdryer is the most important quality for me, so now I am off to find one...

Great when it worked
I purchased this hair dryer on 18 June 2008, used it only three to four times per week and thought it worked very well. My hair dried quickly and was left soft and smooth. Then only 21 days after the one year warranty expired it quit. No warning, no apparent problems, nothing to lead me to believe it wouldn't last a long time. It just stopped working and would not start again. The dryer still looks new, no scratches, no lint in the air intake screen, no kinks in the cord, but is doesn't work. Before it quit, I would have given it four stars (deducting one for being rather loud), the fact that it lasted barely more than one year makes me want to give it zero stars. I'll compromise and offer two stars and wish you good luck if you decide to purchase this hair dryer.

Best Tourmaline Ceramic for the Price!
Very light-weight. Dries my shoulder length THICK hair very fast - almost half the time my old hair dryer. The red color is cool! Discovered the Andis brand while staying in a Marriott recently and really liked that one. This is an upgraded version. I've read that some people think that it's loud but I don't notice it. Sounds just like the ones in the salon to me!
