I bought this product on a whim because I usually like to see product reviews and see what previous customers say about a product and go from there. When I purchased this product, there were only 2 5 stars reviews, but no comments. I decided to purchase it anyway because it was the one hooded dryer that really had the most modes: three heat settings and three speeds, and the ionic option. It was really easy to assemble, there was only one of the side knobs that was not in place, but it was pretty easy to pop into place. The dryer gets pretty hot even in the low heat setting, and the cool setting is actually cool. I’ve been using it for my deep conditioning treatments and for my wash n go’s and it’s been great. I can’t wait to use it for flexi-rod sets, roller sets and more!
