  Review of Daniel Hersheson Professional hairdryer

  Features

  1700W. 2 heat; 2 speed settings; directional nozzle; hanging loop

  Comments

  Dried efficiently and quickly but hottest setting felt very hot on the testers' heads. Narrow directional nozzle works well at reaching the hair roots but doesn't swivel easily. Solid and comfortable to hold but the heaviest of all those tested.

  Review of Braun SPI12200 SatinPro hairdryer

  Features

  2200W. 3 heat; 2 speed; cool shot; directional nozzle; hanging loop

  Comments

  A powerful dryer with a good long flex. It dried hair quickly and easily with a well designed directional nozzle getting into the roots. Slightly unbalanced - heavier at the back of the dryer. Satin ion control available but results were not noticeably different when it was selected.

  Review of Remington Hair Essentials hairdryer

  Features

  2000W. 3 heat; 2 speed settings; coolshot; directional nozzle; hanging loop

  Comments

  The fastest speed is too slow and the full heat setting too hot to bear. It becomes heavy to hold as it takes a long time to dry hair thoroughly. It is a solid dryer with an attractive design and good long 3m flex. Quite noisy

  Review of BeautyWorks Professional Hairdryer

  Features

  2000W. 3 heat, 2 speed settings; cool shot; directional nozzle; hanging loop; diffuser

  Comments

  The controls are not labelled so are hard to determine.  The nozzle is very stiff to remove and attach and the filter door falls open too easily. Otherwise is a powerful dryer but one of the heaviest tested.

  Review of CarmenHair Ionic Ceramic hairdryer

  Features

  2000W. 3 heat, 2 speed settings; cool shot; directional nozzle; hanging loop

  Comments

  A lightweight dryer which would be best for fine hair as it is slow to dry even on full power. The medium setting is quite hot but the directional nozzle good at getting into the roots. Slide style controls are stiff to move. It moves about if placed down when still switched on.

  Review of Boots Shine On Ionic Diffuser hairdryer

  Features

  2000W. 3 heat; 2 speed settings; cool shot; directional nozzle; diffuser; hanging loop

  Comments

  The lightest of all the dryers tested, but still quite powerful. The two slide controls are hard to push and the hottest setting felt too hot on the testers' heads. The directional nozzle doesn't swivel easily and the cable is not very long.

  Review of BaByliss Elegance 2000 hairdryer

  Features

  2000W. 3 heat; 2 speed settings; cool shot; directional nozzle; swivel cord

  Comments

  The hottest air temperature recorded of all dryers tested, it had to be used on the medium setting. The directional nozzle is quite stiff to remove and the controls are not in sequence so have to be switched off before lowering or raising the temp or power.

  Review of Revlon Cord Magic Folding hairdryer

  Features

  2000W. 2 heat /speed settings; cool shot; directional nozzle; folding handle; dual voltage; retractable cord

  Comments

  Perfect for travelling, the handle folds against the dryer head and the flex retracts inside the handle. Heat and speed settings are not separate and the fastest setting is too hot and cooler setting quite slow. Cool shot control is red which is misleading. Noisy.
