Is the hot air blower detachable / unmountable so I can just use it in my hand like a hair dryer? (Sort of)

yes it can be detachable....but not to dry hair though. the temps are too high to use for hair

Detachable from the holding fixture, but cabled directly to the controller so limited distance use from the controller.

Yes. Hot air blower is independent of support arm, which is a dual articulated clam, acting like a hook for the blower. Unit has shipped with a few hot air blower nozzles, various round sizes, and a square shaped one.One can use blower, plate and iron simultaneously on this unit.

No, you can't, if you want to use it as a heat blower you need a attachment (Iso-Tip #7992-003)

Your thumb while holding the dryer could be on the "button" to keep the air cool. If you let the thumb go it will go back to heat mode. But since you cannot hold the dryer properly without your thumb, I don't pay much attention whether it's on the knob or not.

The smoke absorber is attached to the soldering iron. It is not detachable. The hot air gun is separate.

It's not travel sized, if that's what you mean. It's a regular sized blow dryer.

It is not a dryer, no blowing air. Just a hot pipe with teeth all around to help grasp and hold the hair. My hair is short, so it works well for me.

There is a separate button at the top of the handle marked COLD. Tho Ive never used it, I think this is what your thinking of. However keep in mind that the dryer is heavy and in my opinion kindof bulky and not as hot as what I was use to with my older smaller dryer which i dont think they make them blow as hot as the older models anymore. This dryer has its place for some people but for my simple needs, I wish i'd gotten a lighter smaller travel dryer. Hope this helps.

TammyYou turn the handle on the dryer it self. However, it is not what you think. In my opinion the "vac" does no more than the blow drying part. I was very excited about this feature when I ordered this dryer and sadly disappointed when I got it and actually used it.

If you have a source of compressed air you can blow it clean. It's not really made to be taken apart and wiped clean.

yes. Cord is retractable. I have had no problems with it so far. Best hair dryer I've had.

Yes. You can easily remove or attach this piece. I have used my Goody Heat Smart dryer for about 2 years now. I love it! I do not feel it is heavy or awkward at all! I highly recommend this product.

Not a blow dryer. Use only on dry hair with or without product. Heats up in less that ten seconds which is great.

Can't say I make much use of the fume extractor, but I don't use the unit that often anymore. If you're doing extensive soldering work then it may be worthwhile. The suction air comes out of the hot air wand. Remove the tip from that wand to get maximum air flow for suction. I suppose you could connect a hose to the wand that goes outside. You would want to keep the HOT AIR switch off if you do this this, even though hot air heating does stop whenever the wand is in the holder.

No, the hand held units are just that.... hand held. The manual tells you that if you need to help support the blower during use, to hold the bottom of the unit with one hand while holding the handle with your other hand.

I've had mine over a year and have used it to blow filters packed with hair, dust and other stuff. No problems to date. However I've always used it outdoors or with a vacuum hose sucking as it blows when blowing computers and game consoles. The unit cannot be disassembled.

The cord is not retractable. I keep mine in a drawer but it's big and it doesn't fold. It's a powerful dryer - not sure best choice for fine hair

I never heard of dematting with a blow dryer. This one, however, is extremely powerful.
