 Conair 225 hairdryer |
| Review Date: March 7, 2009 |
| Reviewer: K. Wright, NC |
| My old Conair died so I read all the reviews and decided on this hairdryer. Very satisfied. The weight is good, the attachments are fine, and the price was right! You don't need anything better. I really like the ability to open the cover to get to the mesh filter to clean it and the 3 heat settings and 3 blower settings. A winner! |
A must have for frizzy troublesome hair!

| I love this dryer. I used a similar one at Planet Hollywood in Vegas and tracked it down when I got home. I have wavy hair that always frizzes into a puff ball when I use a hairdryer. I had switched from my old dryer to the Remington Wet2Straight which I thought was the greatest invention ever, but this dryer quickly replaced it. The key is the high power motor, it gets my entire head dry in less than 10 minutes, with no frizz. A quick run through with a straightener after I'm done is all I need. Plus it's lightweight and quiet. This product saves me at least 15 minutes in the morning that I used to waste getting frustrated with my hair...try it! |
Best hair dryer I ever owned.

| It looks good, light in weight, very powerful, makes my hair shine. These new tourmaline ceramic dryers are not always what they advertise to be, but this dryer is everything it says it is and more. It cost a little more, but it is worth every penny. |

I bought this hair dryer to replace an "old" Conair 1875 watt one. The old one was at least 12yrs. old and was still working, but making strange noises so I decided to look for its replacement before it died at an inopportune time! This dryer is great. It has a lot more 'wind' power than the old one did but it does not seem to get as hot, which with the power is not an issue...it does not burn my head if I stay in one place too long as the old one did.
The case is easy to hold, the dual controls are different, but better than the one it replaced. I would recommend this hair dryer without any negative issues. I did not want to spend a lot of money for an ion dryer and this one is perfect. It leaves my hair much softer and manageable and does a good job of drying hair fast. The Amazon statement did not mention 'ion'...but on the box it states it is an 'ion' dryer. |
Would buy again and did!

This is light weight, inexpensive, and was a great improvement from the travel hairdryer that finally broke after 10 years of use. I could definitely feel the soft and smoothing effects of the tourmaline. In fact I loved it so much that I bought another one when I was able to find it at Target for $13. Plus it's soft material does not scrap your walls or furniture when they rub against each other.
Highly recommend it! |
love it

| Lightweight. Rubberized which makes it easy to grip. 6 possible settings, which I love. Powerful but not overdrying. Quiet. Will definitely buy one of these again. Love it. |
GREAT dryer and seller

| Reviewer: Carole Sweeney, |
| I love my dryer. I had a Conair that lasted years and it started to slow down. I made the mistake of purchasing another brand and used that dryer around 8-10 times. I hated it and it actually started to melt at the opening. Horrible and took forever to dry my hair. So, I went online and found another Conair 1875 watt like my first one. This one is a bit heavier but it is FABULOUS! I don't need to put it on high, the low level works very well. It is pretty quiet and just a great dryer which I expected after going back to the brand I should have purchased from the beginning. If you want a lighter dryer there were other Conair to choose from, but if you don't care about that, then get this dryer. You won't be disappointed. |

| I love this dryer! It is fast and relatively quiet. I have had great hair days ever since I bought this. Since my hair dryers only seem to last a year or so, I am buying a couple extras as backup. I think this is the best hair dryer that I have ever owned. |
Great Dryer - Can't Beat the Price!

| I got this as a second hair-dryer for traveling and to leave at my boyfriend's house so I didn't have to lug my Conair 213X Infiniti Pro (about $40, and much heavier than this one) back and forth every weekend. This was a great choice. The dryer is much much lighter than what I'm used to and has a nice smooth feel (as in, it doesn't feel light plastic under my hands, but more of a rubbery-feel - very pleasant!). It is also just as powerful as the 213x. It has 2 speeds (gale-force wind and normal), and 3 heat settings. I use the gale-force winds on medium heat and my hair 4-5" below my shoulder, thin-medium thickness, is dry in under 3 minutes. My younger sister tried it out and put it on gale-force high heat and she said it didn't stay on for more than a few seconds. My thoughts are it could have been my outlet (I live in a very old apartment building - circa 1900s) unable to handle the current flow OR it could have been a safety feature of the hair dryer to prevent over-heating. Either way its not a problem for me since high heat hurts my head and ears and makes me feel as if I'm destroying my hair! All-in-all its a great value for the price. |
A really good hairdryer for reasonable price

| Reviewer: One eye open, Toronto |
| I think pretty much all has been said in the above reviews. It dries hair quickly, but doesn't damage it by being too hot, nor does it make it frizzy. It is not too loud - it is not exactly quiet, but nothing dramatic. It is not too heavy either. And it's a good deal! I have had it since a month and I actually go through the trouble of blowdrying my hair much more often now, because my hair looks so nice now. (Well, not that I was a monster before). |
AWESOME

| I rarely bother to write reviews on amazon.com but I used this hairdryer for the first time last night and I can tell it made a WORLD of difference from my previous archaic hairdryer. My hair is shiny, frizzless and it's staying that way for a long time now--I naturally have curly and sometimes frizzy hair, this feels like a miracle. Oh and I must mention I used this hairdryer along with the conair ininiti ionic brush and my hair was dry in about 5 minutes!!! I'm very happy with the dryer. :) |

| Great hairdryer, particularly for the price. Lightweight and easy to use. The air concentrator stays on even when the dryer is very hot.I know some people have mentioned that the controls are a little awkward but I really have not had a problem with that. |
Lightweight and Trusty

| Reviewer: Teresa Qualtrough, NEW YORK, NY, US |
| This hairdryer is the best I've had yet. Its not too noisy, its not too weak or too strong and is very lightweight. I blow dry my hair with a brush and it takes about 15mins and because its so light my arms never get tired. I would buy it again. |
Powerful but not hot enough

| Review Date: June 30, 2009 |
| Reviewer: C. Hudak, South Carolina |
| I bought this dryer after my expensive tourmaline one was shot. I wanted to see if the price difference was justified. I don't think it is. This blow dryer is so inexpensive and has a lot of power. It isn't hot enough for my thick, thick hair--I can't straighten it very well--but it has plenty of air flow to pretty much make up for it. My hair dries very quickly. I could see how someone with thin or fine hair would be overwhelmed by the volume of air. For me it's fine; I just have to spend a bit more time with my flat iron for straightening after drying. |
Good engineering

| I bought this to replace an older Conair that finally died after about 20 years of daily use. The new unit is impressive: it has significantly stronger airflow yet is much quieter -- in particular, it doesn't have the high-pitched whine you expect from a blow drier. The airflow is very well focused, not diffuse -- although it comes with a diffuser attachment if you prefer that. My only quibble is the on/off switch, which relies on friction between your thumb and its surface in order to slide it. You'll quickly develop a feel for it, but a more traditional switch would have been better. That said, it's a minor thing; overall I'm very happy with the product. |
Affordable styling dryer

| Reviewer: Terra Prima, Los Angeles, CA |
| I shopped around to compare prices on this Conair hairdryer and this was a steal!. It is pretty good and it is a tourmaline ceramic hairdryer with the standard attachments. There might be more efficient more powerful hairdryers out there but you will also pay at least 4 times this price. |
Comfort and great hair too!

| Review Date: July 11, 2009 |
| Reviewer: J. Haraway, |
| The Conair 225Comfort Touch is just that...nice and light. It also has a rubber- like finish which makes it easy to hold. The controls are situated well in comparison to other dryers...no danger of accidently turning it off. The heat is GREAT! It dries my hair quickly but doesn't burn. My hair has no static and looks shiny too! And the price is attractive too. The only thing that stopped me from giving it five stars is the short cord length. |
Works better than others

| Reviewer: Dawn, |
| I was needing a hair dryer that wouldn't throw the breaker when on high and this one is good although it did blow breaker one time but I had too many things going at the time but it hasn't happened since. It is handy to hold and turn on and off or adjust settings with one hand so this is a keeper for me! |

| Great dryer, quiet, dries hair fast, lightweight and very strong cord from unit. Although, between the cost of the dryer and shipping it was a bit more than I wanted to spend. Just as good as the folic dryer that cost 75.00 that died after 1 year. |

Too much power

| Reviewer: Janine Clay, Pennsylvania, USA |
| This hair dryer does leave my hair soft, but it's air flow is much too strong for styling my shoulder-length hair, even on the low setting. Since air flow control was the primary reason for selecting this particular item, I am disappointed and use the dryer only occasionally. |

| This hair dryer seemed to perform ok for a few months, but then it caught on fire. Seems like manufacturers of electrical appliances could prevent fires. Just good thing my wife didn't get burned in the process. |

| i bought this hairdryer and when i came home and plugged it in, it began to smoke. i brought it back to ulta, and they graciously replaced it after seeing the smoke for themselves. loved the second one (same hairdryer), but it comletely died within 6 months. would not turn on. works well, while it works. otherwise - a cheap hunk of plastic. i'm not going back for round 3! |
It will not last

| Reviewer: Fogtownboy, San Francsico, CA |
| Less than two months after buying this dryer, I dropped it on the floor and a part popped off. The part is the screen on the back of the dryer (the gray part in the picture). It has a neat feature: you can remove the whole piece and the foam filter inside (that is easily cleaned) it keeps the inner parts of the dryer clean. The problem is that the filter assembly is poorly designed and cheaply constructed it should snap right back on and stay on but it is always falling off. My previous Conair dryer had just a screen in back that would get clogged and it was difficult to keep it clean but hey, it was simple and sturdy and worked for over 10 years. If you get this dryer don't drop it! |
