2 questions: does this dryer blow really hot air, and does it blow really strong. The dryer I have now doesn't seem hot enough, plus it blows too hard and blows my hair out of my round brush, also, the cool shot is too powerful, I need a really hot...

This gets hot..I rarely use it at hottest setting..I love it..it blows my hair shiny and smooth without much effort..I can just use condenser, and aim down..little brush work needed.

This blow dryer has both low & high settings for the airflow. This blow dryer also has heat settings, cool, warm, and hot. I love this blow dryer.

This blow dryer is amazing. It has the option to turn on or off the ionic blowing drying componet. When I use blow drying with the ions turned on I notice my hair has less frizz and it blow drys ALOT quicker. I live in hawaii and frizz is common with humidity. However this blow dryer takes care of that problem for me. It does come with two concentrator attachments. I did do a comparison of my old chi blowdryer (130.00) and this one. 2 diff days/ wet hair no product and the this one dried my whole head in under 10 mins but I spent almost 23 mins with my chi. Hope that helps

Honestly I don't remember. I was so upset that the hot air would not blow the bonnet up I took it off after trying several adjustments trying to get the hot air into the bonnet. I use medium size hair rollers and the bonnet was tight on my head, so I assume that was the reason the hot air would not circulate. If you use medium or larger rollers it really doesn't matter how much noise it makes it will not work for you. If it had a lot of noise though I would have remembered it. Sorry I wish I could have been more help. I returned the dryer immediately after purchasing it.

It is coolish. I also have fragile, ultrafine, baby-hair, and this dryer is not too hot. I can even use it on the hot setting when it is wedged on my towel rack and I am about a foot away.

Hi, LeAnn:Though I do like this blowdryer, I like the Babyliss Pro BABP2800 even more. I use the 2800 as a rule now because not only does it do a better job drying my hair without actually drying it out, but it also makes it look like I spent time styling it. Usually, I just brush my hair a little while I'm drying it and occasionally run my fingers through it to aim the air where it needs to go. I have gotten some nice compliments on my hair since using the BABP2800. I think if volume is what you're after, then that will be the blowdryer for you. Hope this helps! :)

On the high setting, it is pretty powerful. I have short, med thick hair and I always use the low setting. Do no think it is as powerful as a full size hair dryer but it is way less heavy and takes up way less space. Hope this answers your question. Would I buy another one like this, yes I think I would. The only difference I would make would be a retractable cord, but that may make it heavier and bulky.

Hi Diana~No it's really not...it's a great dryer ( in my opinion lol) Thanks for asking!

Sounds like your looking for a hair dryer with a very gentle blow, one that barely blows your hair around. This one, I would say is more of a low to medium blow. It will move your hair around. Hope this helps.

Hi Turtlesaver...thought I'd share with you this update on another flat iron. I took a chance and bought the Conair YOU flat iron....while it doesn't get super hot (two settings hi-lo)...it has "plates" that curve around the sides which seem to deal well with the rough ends issue. It works best if you've straightened your hair with a round brush and hair dryer first....which is what I typically do. If you're going from wavy to straight the Conair You won't be hot enough. The Infinity Pro I ended up returning it was awful. Here's the link to the other if you want to check it out :) Conair YOU Style Straightener Hi Turtlesaver...thought I'd share with you this update on another flat iron.

Just 2. Cool and hot, but the hot is not like other dryers. It's not overbearing and drys the hair quickly.

you have to press it each time. Honestly, even on the hottest setting the air coming out of this dryer doesn't get that hot to the touch.

You might have an accumulation of hair on the rotating part of the hair dryer. Remove the brush to clean, and if this isn't sufficient, you might have to unscrew the top cover to be able to clear the hair off the blower. I do this occasionally with my wife's dryer and it does the trick.

I've found that it's actually hotter than my normal sized dryer. It gets really hot!

There must be something wrong with the dryer. The two settings on mine are cool and warm enough to dry the hair, but definitely not hot. I've never burned my scalp or my hair. I really like this dryer, so maybe you send it back or contact the company.

No. The dryer does not have a cool setting. Just low & high, which is not very strong, but I like to think that it's a mild heat setting. The other attachment is the curling brush.
