My dryer heats up without any heat setting on, it heated up the air all by itself. Is this normal? In less than a min. the air was warm like a blow dr

What you are describing does not happen with my blow dryer.I suggest you get a hold of where you purchased the dryer from and discuss with them.

I haven't had that problem. you might want to get in touch with the company.

Mine does the same thing, the motor for the blower heats up in use, as a result, the air is warm do to the fact that air is pulled past the motor inside the unit. But there will be a significant difference in heat when the heat is turned on either on low or the high setting. If there's no heat difference then you may have a problem. Hope this helps.

Hi; My dryer does the same thing. It never gets too hot, but it does warm up. I have never had need to use the heat settings, I just keep it in neutral. I guess the motor pulling the air forward heats it up. I really love this dryer.

Mine does the same thing as Ria's. It's never a problem and I don't have to use the heat setting either. I, too, assumed it was just part of the dryer mechanics because I wouldn't think to use a cool temp. It's been a wonderful thing to have...I have 3 dogs ( a golden, a lab/border, & a border) that I use it on.

No, but I have washed it in the washer and used my dryer on the no heat setting and dried it with just cool air.

Yours is defective, I would guess. Mine is ready to go within minutes of plugging in. I think mine heats up fast.

I haven't experienced this problem! I do know that the nozzle is really hot when in use. Other then that I love my dryer!

This seems to be a common problem with this product. I would contact the seller and get it fixed if the cost is reasonable. They sent me a new one when mine broke but now the second fan has gone out as well. As I do a lot with my dryer I can't afford for it to be down so I bought an Excaliber.

I noticed a 'burnt odor' emanating from the hair dryer before initial use and was also concerned. After a few weeks of daily operation, the odor's dissipated. We've had our Remington hair dryer for several months now, and there's no unusual odor, just normal from what you'd expect from a very hot heating element.

The fan has a very high speed setting. The "hot" setting on the dryer is VERY hot. I use medium all the time and can dry my hair in less than 5 min. [it's med length] The handle is made as part of the body of the unit. I have an allergic reaction to rubber and have had absolutely no problem with this hair dryer. This is the best hair dryer I've every used.

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.

no -I only run it maybe 10 mins so I haven't noticed anything like that but I would not consider it a normal thing to heat up so much-ask the company

Although I have never done this, I have used the cool setting often, and it stays cool, it does not get hot. However, I have never kept the cool setting for the entire time that I'm under the dryer.

Our blower becomes very hot to touch. Did your old one stop functioning? If so it may not have been drawing the hot air and fumes out like you new blower is. It is normal to get hot, but make sure the motor itself is not getting too hot...IE if you put a bead of water on it and it steams off real quick. That can be an indicator of a short or miswire.

Hello, This dryer is perfect for cool blowing. I had the same problem, my hair are very sensitive to hot temperature. In fact the lowest temperature is approximately cold. Generally I use the middle temperature setting or lower. I recommend this device.

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.

I can't answer that..I only used it as the way it came. It barely blows air...and it's Luke warm air at best. I regret buying this product. My hair dryer blows more and warmer air than this product.

I really have no idea...I haven't noticed an increase in my electrical bill. A feature I like about this dryer is that the heat cycle moderates to a cool cycle. I find that my clothes are dry far sooner than I expected and I end up turning off the dryer long before the cycle is complete. I love my little dryer. Simple to use and does what it is supposed to without a problem.
