Hard to believe the positive reviews. Is this dryer STILL working well for you after a few months? Do you use the high heat setting?

I use the high heat setting. It is still working fine for me. I used to have one of those awful table top dryers that was so loud, would fall over, and never dried my hair. My hairdresser has this exact dryer for home use which is why I chose this one. I really like this dryer. Obviously with every electronic device there can be a dud in the bunch but my dryer is still working great.

Still going great and yes I do use it on high especially when I am doing a once a week protein treatment.

Mine is working fine. I only intermittently use the high heat setting since it gets so hot, I have to switch to a lower setting, or cool occasionally. But, so far, so good! No complaints here.

Hello! If you're asking about the hard bonnet hair dryer on the rolling stand, the answer is no! I only used it once before it copped out on me. It was loud and smelled like burning. I now use the Gold n Hot soft bonnet portable dryer, which I love. I've been using it for 2 years and it works very well. Hope this helps!

Yes I use the high setting often because I am always in a rush and don't like to sit still for very long. I either use large curlers or do a "doobie-do" and it works fast. My friends come over and ask about it I tell them it's one of my best beauty investments lol my hair is very hard to manage too.

Yes, very hot on the high setting. It's the newest and the best hair dryer. I also have the Parlux 3.800 ionic ceramic and this one is lighter and better.

VERY LOW! I think that you will be very satisfied with this dryer. I have been using it for several years.

It's an electrical appliance, not unlike a hair dryer, only hotter. It doesn't appear to wear down with use, although I suppose eventually it will. All I could tell you is "a lot of lightings."

I asked this question over and over before I bought mine. Finally I took the plunge and here's what I know. I have great luck venting the dryer into the little venting attachment that's only about $8 or something. I thought it would create way too much humidity in my little cabin. Not so. I was running it during the hottest, most humid months of last summer with no problem. I ALSO have the same dryer in my apartment (I live in a different place in the winter. Why? Have you every been in northern Wisconsin in the winter? HAHA) and I don't vent it. It does create some humidity, but it's fine with me. I guess I wouldn't put it right next to Grandma's 150-year-old antique buffet, lest it makes it fall apart. I absolutely love my Sonya dryers. Highly recommended.

This hair dryer seems to be very solid. It functions very well and is much more quiet than any dryer I have ever owned. In my opinion, I would think it would hold up very well to professional use. I use mine daily but I am not a hair stylist. I have had my unit since before Christmas 2014 and have no complaints.

I tried my other dryer , just to see if there was a difference in noise, and there really wasn't. Both dryers are around the same price point, so maybe they are both quieter than a cheap brand. Honestly, I've never been bothered by the sound, and I don't think its high pitched. I recommend this dryer if you have curly hair. All dryers will make your hair frizzy if you don't have the right products in your hair. I use deva curl products and my hair is never frizzy as long as I use them.

No it isn't. I found this dryer to be very heavy and awkward and sent it back. I didn't feel it had anymore power than the one I have. Didn't care for it.

The dryer has two settings low or high, and no it does not make your hair move even on the high setting.

I put mine in the dryer all the time. I've tried it on multiple heat settings with no problems.

It very well could be. If you can find a schematic tucked somewhere in the top part of the dryer. there should also be high temp limit switch in line to the heating element. It could be that as well. Also, dependent on the age of the dryer, could be the heating element itself getting old and not heating up all the way.

sounds like it.. I found that it does not get too hot.. just right.. you must - it is a quality hair dryer.. professional grade

I've owned two over the years and both had very good power. The one I have now I've had for about two years and it's still going strong. Sounds like your dryer is atypical.
