Great drier with great power
930608
I love this drier. I used to use the regular Solano which I found to be too heavy and clumsy. I was willing to give up some power to get a lighter-weight unit but didn't have to in the end.  This drier has plenty of power and is very easy to manipulate.  I'm not the most expert and blowing out my hair and this light-weight drier makes it a lot easier.  I do find the buttons annoying as they aren't intuitive (up is down and down is up) and they are too close together so it's easy to hit the wrong one.  But other than that, it's great.

Needed to dry out a rock and concrete basement.  This unit is performs like a champion.  Besides keeping the room warm and dry its function has chased away all the various yucky insects that love wet.  A additional bonus.

Bought this for my Mom for Christmas and tried it out myself.... I will not be ordering one for me too.  Excellent dryer.  I have a Chi and liked this much more.  Dries quickly and very powerful air flow.  Wish the cord was a bit longer but still a great product.  Definitely recommend.

Last year we decided to try dehydrating.  We purchased one from Wal Mart and it quit working after a few weeks.  We took it back and tried another brand from there.  The 2nd one worked great, but was really slow.  We saw this one on a good sale on Amazon, and based on reviews and recommendations, bought it.  It is fantastic and is far superior over the "starter versions" we had previously purchased.  Much, much faster drying times, came with eight trays (and I think can support up to 30 trays), adjustable temperature control and came with some spiffy extras for the trays. Very, very pleased with it.  The only thing I wish it had was maybe a timer. Anyway, I can highly recommend this dehydrator for someone wanting to get more "serious" with their dehydrating...

I have used this unit for almost 5 months and LOVE IT! I live on the Gulf coast and my A/C really didn't dry the air as much as I would like, so I bought this unit. I don't have a place to run a drain line outside, which I would prefer, but I only have to dump the built-in bucket once every day or two, so it really isn't a problem. With the built in humidity % control settings, and three fan levels, I only use the lowest setting, so it could pull out much more moisture, if I needed it to. I just dial in the humidity level I want to maintain, and the unit does its job only when needed. I hardly noticed a change in my electric use so it seems quite efficient. It does make a little fan noise, but not objectionable on low fan setting. I would recommend this unit to anyone with a humidity problem.

I never thought I'd say this, but I LOVE this dehumidifier. First off, it was delivered as expected, but the first one had a broken casing. They took it back and sent a replacement, no problem. But lets get to the more interesting details:
1. It's pretty big and heavy, but with the help of two friends it was pretty easy to hoist it up into our attic where we have a moisture problem. So the fact that it fits nicely through a standard attic door is key.
2. Auto shut-off! The absolute best feature that works like a charm. The built-in bucket holds about a gallon of water, I think. Just a like an ice-maker, the dehumidifier has a little arm that rises up as the bucket fills, then shuts off the unit when it reaches max height. So you never have to worry about over-flow.
3. The bucket is easy to pull out and just slides back into place. It has a nice fold-down "suitcase" handle so I can carry it with one hand while I hold onto the hand-rail of the attic stairs. Then I dump the water into the bathtub and put the bucket back into place. Lastly, the unit detects that the bucket is back in place and starts right back up in whatever setting you had it on.
4. Effective. The bucket fills up at least twice a day, so yes I have a bad moisture problem in my attic, but this thing is really solving the problem quickly!
In summary, this just seems like a really good quality, well designed piece of equipment with lots of settings that I haven't even tried. I'm really glad I spent the extra money for what appears to be a top-of-the-line consumer model. Well worth it!

I just bought this hair dryer, I have used it twice and I am in love. I dread drying my hair because I have so much of it, and it is thick, real thick. This dryer cuts my dry time in half. So pleased. Thank you BaByliss!

I love this dryer. It's a little more expensive than the average Target or WalMart variety, but this is still a really great deal on a professional quality dryer. My hair looks so much smoother when I use this dryer. Yes, it is heavy but not unbearably so. The buttons are in an odd place but I don't switch between settings very often during each drying session so it's not really a problem. My goal was to get a dryer that would get the job done fast, and this one has cut my drying time in half.

I have owned over the years multiple conairs.  I finally decided I needed a good hair dryer and came across as it was highly rated.  It is bang for your buck.  I have mild curls but it also gets awfully frizzy.  I use a round brush and this hair dryer and the frizz is practically eliminated.  I have used it may be 10 times now and it has done a great job so far.  The build looks sturdy, make sure you tighten the nozzle before each use.

Love this, and bought it when I heard that using even the best car-drying towel or shami can leave swirl marks. Dries car in a decent amount of time, but would dry faster if there was an attachment that fanned out much wider, which is why I gave it 4/5 stars. The added heat makes sure that no water spots are left. Windows and mirrors come out sparkling clean with no need for separate cleaning. The blower gets into all the crevices, including the wheels. The 30-foot hose is long enough to circle around my mid-size car with room to spare. BONUS: this blower blows and dries the condensation out of lights and trim, which NO towel can do! I highly-recommend you buy this if you're on the fence about spending hundreds on something to dry your car with, so worth it to me because I love my new ride.

As other reviewers have mentioned, it does make a very loud noise.  That said, it works amazingly well!  Dries items perfectly and the timer set is a terrific feature.  It may be the drier climate where I live, but so far things have dried faster than the time listed in the manual that it usually takes...the fruit leathers needed just half the time.  Do check your drying food until you get a feel for how long it will take in your area.

First, understand this is not a high-end washer/dryer, so don't have miraculous expectations; however, with that in mind, this item is AWESOME! Understanding it's parameters and limitations is key before you make the purchase. For me, I live in a remote rural cabin and use it out on the deck. I fill with a garden hose, or a bucket of hot water if needed, but the cool thing is is that I just let it drain off the edge of the deck and hang dry on the clothes line also on the deck. This is perfect for small loads and washes well, spins at high speed, and is real quiet. For instance, I washed a long-sleeve sweat shirt. Wet, weighed approx 4-6 lbs, but after the spin (dry) cycle, it weighted less than 1/4-1/2 lb and seemed practically dry. I am so stoked I bought this. Well worth the price and peace of mind you have at doing your domestics when/where you want to.

We love this dryer!

Our regular dryer started making screeching noises a coupele of weeks ago, and we haven't had the time (or money) to get it fixed yet.  As we head into winter, it's a little too cold to consistently keep drying our clothing on an outdoor rack, either.

So, I looked on Amazon for a good solution and found ... Dr. Dry.  I was a bit skeptical at first, I must confess - a drying rack with a heater?  Seriously?

But now that we are using it every day, I must say that Dr. Dry has won us over.  It works way more quickly than I had expected (as long as I am using it to dry normal weight, wrung out clothing.  Blankets and towels and soaking wet items are going to take longer ...)  Clothing that comes out of it is truly wrinkle free, since it dries in a hanging position.  That's a BIG plus for us - less ironing to do!!

I have it sitting in the bathroom and it's both pleasantly quiet and does a great job of heating the bathroom a bit as a side bonus.  I had been concerned before I got Dr. Dry that it would drip water all over the place and I'd need to situate it over a drain.  This isn't the case; Dr. Dry has a heavyweight clear plastic bag that goes all the way around the clothing and inflates with hot aiir when you turn it on.  I hang the wet clothing over my bathtub until it has stopped dripping (or just wring it out VERY, VERY well) and put it in.  There is an amazingly large amount of hanging space, and the extra poles you aren't using can be folded down to make the unit a bit more compact.  (It's about the size of a large adult standing in the room when it's fully expanded).

The plastic bag goes all the way around the clothing, including under it to catch drips - and there is an extra baffle over the heater to keep water from dripping into the heater unit.  I love that the heater has a timer, and will automatically shut itself off when it is done running.  And I love that it's relatively quiet and gently vents the heat through the top and warms the room.  :->

Basically, I love everything about Dr. Dry and you can't beat the price!  He's energy efficient as well (especially since the "waste heat" goes into our room and not out a dryer vent into the backyard.)  He can dry a whole washer's full of clothing and it's such a sturdy, well-designed machine that I expect to use it for many years to come.  I'm very impressed and grateful for Dr. Dry

Over the years I have purchased dozens of humidifiers trying to combat the incredibly dry air in our 1850's radiator heated home.  This Vornado Ultra3 is by far the best I have had.  Humidity in the room went up no less than 20% after it only running for about 1 hour.  I typically do not need to run it for more than 1-2.5 hours before turning in at night and will be purchasing another one to run in the general downstairs area.  As other reviewers noted, it can be somewhat loud at the highest setting, but on low its practically silent.  The only down side is that the water capacity is only 1 gallon, so I have to fill it at least 2x per day.  The unusual shape of the water container makes it impossible to stand it up in the sink without being held.  These are minor issues compared to the amazing results.

Excellent hair dryer.  I used a Babyliss in Europe on vacation & couldn't go back to my old dryer.  Top notch drying, quick, and few frizzies.  Do yourself a favor and get one.

Love it. Got rid of my heavy, bulky Edemco dryer that wasn't portable at all. This I can take it with me to shows. It breaks down easily, puts out tons of heat with great air flow. It's relatively quiet for a dryer, a little less than my old Edemco, but not as quiet as say the Cool Dryer by CC. The fact that this weighs under 20# is awesome. There are a lot of plastic parts. To their credit, they seem to be well made. Still wouldn't trust this to be dropped at all. Other than that, I love it. It's a keeper.
