Hard to find this kind of quality dryer
This review is for the guy's who were 1st 'empowered' to use a hair dryer back in the 70's!
Do you remember the "Dry Guy" line? I sure do! How I miss that yellow ( or sometimes red) powerhouse!
Over the year's things have improved, and this is a sensational unit.
The ion feature makes your hair dry faster, in my case about 50% faster than the non-ion units that have a similar design over 30 years or so.
My last unit was one from Sharper Image, and cost 3x more than this one, and did not perform as well.
The only reason this is not 5 star is that you are not offered a way to buy an extra brush attachment. I know guy's use this product in an alternate way than most girl's do, we burn them out less often!
This is a bargain! Not a bad idea to have one in 'reserve' too! This product is great!

Item lost high=speed within a month. Medium speed is OK. I would not buy another Revlon styler. [Revlon Amber Waves RV670AW 1875W Ionic Styler Dryer]

Actually works for women of color!
I have coarse, kinky hair and blow dryers typically either (1)short out while I'm blow drying my hair or (2)do not blow out my hair very well leaving a lot of kink in there. That said, I was skeptical of how well this product would work for women like me. This blow dryer not only stayed the course until my hair was dry, it also gave me the extension I was looking for in order to braid my hair more easily and made it feel smooth! The sideways design also helps me to dry my hair faster. I only used the wide toothed comb and thus far it has held up. Very satisfied.

It worked!
Okay, I hate blow dryers and I hate straightening my hair because it is thick and long and takes forever. I am so against the time consumption that goes in to doing my hair that I stopped getting chemical relaxers 5 years ago and went natural (and for those who are in to it, my hair type is type 3c/4a and about mid back length when stretched). 1 to 2 times/year I have to straighten my hair to trim my ends. This process usually takes forever and it ends up as a puffball within an hour. I managed to get my hair as straight as I would get it with a mid range flat iron with this dryer alone and it only took about 20 minutes. I managed to get the flat iron through as well without it reverting to a puff. At no point did it overheat and shut off. I was quite happy.
The only issue the dryer might have though is the location of the vent. I think that this might cause issues for people who are left handed as the vent will spend most of the time against your hair and I imagine that would make it more prone to overheating.
