Dried testers' hair just as quickly as their standard hairdryers. Compact and efficient, comes with a zip up travel bag. Styling nozzle feels a little flimsy. Comfortable to hold. Heat and speed settings can't be controlled independently of each other.

1700W, 2 heat/ speed settings, turbo heat button. Weight 570g. Flex length 198cm.  Hanging loop, 2 styling nozzles, dual voltage 110V-127V or 220 - 240V. Travel bag. Power adaptor. Folding handle. Includes 4 free nutrition capsules.

Comments

Very large and bulky for a travel dryer, dried testers hair just as quickly as their standard hairdryers. Comes with a drawstring bag. A nutrition capsule can be inserted into the styling nozzle, but our testers said the nutrition capsule didn't seem to make much difference to their hair. Air gets quite hot on fastest setting. Heat and speed settings can't be controlled independently of each other.

Dried testers' hair just as quickly as their standard hairdryers. Compact and efficient, but air gets quite hot. Doesn't come with a travel bag. Shortest flex of all those tested.

Took testers slightly longer to dry hair, than with a standard dryer, compact, but doesn't come with a travel bag. Awkward to use as there is no handle.
