Product Rating: 1 chi hairdryer
Reviewer: ashley from virginia  Tue Jun 09 2009

I am a hairstylist and when I first started Cosmetology school I traveled to Hairshows....well I watched Chi there and they are awesome, so I figured on buying one of their hairdryers..it cost me 150.00$ and I should have just bought a 10$ hairdryer from a dollar store. It absolutly sucked. I see no difference in them than any other cheap hairdryer..that was a BIG LOSS of 150.00$ I will never do that again.

Product Rating: 1 Not Worth It!
Reviewer: Anonymous from Texas  Mon May 25 2009

I have had a CHI flat iron for years and loved it. So when Christmas came around I begged my husband for a CHI blowdryer too. After much convincing of why he MUST spend so much money on a blowdryer he bought it for me. It is now May and it has already quit working. From the day one of using this blow dryer it didnt blow very hot or fast. It took twice as long to dry my hair. Now it has quit blowing hot air at all! It only blows cold! AFTER ONLY 5 MONTHS!!! I do not advise buying this blow dryer. I feel like I convinced my husband to flush $140 down the toilet!! Definately not worth it!!!

Product Rating: 1 this is JUNK!!!
Reviewer: anna from kailua  Tue Dec 30 2008

like everyone else, I think this product is junk!! i bought because i wanted a good dryer to style my hair fast and look professonal. nope. far from it with this dryer! I used this dryer for 5 mins, and then pulled out my old cheap dryer $20 dryer because it works better. the chi dryer took forever to dry my hair, its quiet because it has such a low voltage, which wont dry your hair fast at all! I own a chi flat iron that i love. i expected a high quality product hair dryer from chi too, but this is far from high quality or preformance!

Reviewer: Michelle   Tue Dec 02 2008

I paid almost $200 for this thing and it completely broke after 12 months (nice timing CHI). I now blow dry my hair by sticking my head out of the window on the way to work ... sometimes I walk my dog real fast then have him pant on my hair to dry it ... works as good as CHI.

Product Rating: 5 LOVE IT!!!! A MUST HAVE!!!
Reviewer: Vivian from Dallas, TXC  Fri Nov 21 2008

I love my chi flat iron so much that my husband decided to surprise me with a chi hair dryer. I didn't think I could spend that much money on a hairdryer but it is worth every cent!!!! It dries my super long hair in half the time and definately smooths the fly-aways. If I blow dry with a round brush, I don't even need my flat iron!!! Great product, great investment (especially since I use it every day). Would highly recommend and I will never go back to cheap hairdryers again!!

Product Rating: 1 no good!!!!
Reviewer: JARRED MONTGOMERY   Thu Aug 28 2008

IM A MALE HAIRSTYLIST AND BOUGHT THIS DRYER CAUSE EVERYONE WAS TELLING ME HOW MUCH FASTER IT DRIED HAIR. WRONG! I USED IT ON A CLIENT WITH CURLY HAIR AND COMPARED IT TO A $12.00 DRYER I BOUGHT. THE 12 DRIED IT TWICE AS FAST. DONT WASTE MONEY IM TELLING THE TRUTH. JUST LOOK AT THE WATTAGE. CHI- 1300 MOST CHEAP DRYERS GET 18-1900 WATTS DO THE MATH.

Product Rating: 5 Awesome
Reviewer: Linda from Florida  Sat Jul 26 2008

Just blow dryed my "stubborn coarse curly" hair for the 2nd time with my new dryer. I am in "awe" of the turn around in my hair with this dryer. No wonder my hair looked great at the salon and frizzy at home. I will pay the price for the Chi no matter what. I never want to be without it. I am a very satisfied customer. My hair has gone to prima donna silky hair and a complete turn around to the "Way we Were".
Thank you for making a great product.

Product Rating: 5 Works great and low EMF
Reviewer: Linda from Encinitas, CA  Tue May 27 2008

I've had this dryer about 3 months now, and use it daily. It works great, dries fast, is quiet, and I like the low EMF. I've never spent this much on a dryer, but I think this was a good purchase, given the health effects of EMF. Zippy color, too!

Product Rating: 1 Chi NOT worth It!
Reviewer: Anonymous   Sat May 24 2008

My husband bought me the GF1541 Turbo for Christmas. It worked for only 5 months, & now only blows cold air. Obviously, the quality doesn't match the price! I tried fixing it, as was suggested by another poster, but it still doesn't work. I've had less expensive dryers that lasted for years. Also, I must agree with others about it getting too hot, & the on/off button located right in the area where it's held. Consequently, one is accidently turning it off, which can be extremely annoying. I'm returning it tomorrow to the salon where he bought it.

Product Rating: 4 Love it!
Reviewer: Katherine from South Carolina  Tue May 20 2008

I think this hair dryer works great. The only thing that I don't see that it does is dry my hair any faster. I do notice that it doesn't get as hot. That is especially nice so that I don't get too hot. I like how it doesn't dry my hair out either.

Product Rating: 5 Awesome!
Reviewer: Sherryl   Sat Apr 19 2008

I loved this product so much!! The best hairdryer I have ever used. Heats up quickly, is quiet, and my hair looks shiny and smooth when done. Unfortunately the heat coil went on it in 8months of owning it. That sucks big time! I don't know if thats a flaw in it, or I just got a lemon, but I still believe in the product.

Product Rating: 2 Doesnt worth the money
Reviewer: Cecilia from Dallas  Mon Apr 07 2008

I recive this hair dryer, and its the worst hair dryer I ever Have... makes my hair so frizzie and doesnt help to avoid humidity wheter problems with your hair at all.. dont buy it!!!

Product Rating: 5 So far so good!
Reviewer: Linda Erickson from California  Tue Feb 26 2008

I've had this hair dryer for a few weeks, and I love it! It is QUIET. I bought it because it said it was quiet and low EMF. As long as it continues to work properly long term, I'll be glad I paid this much for a hair dryer!

Product Rating: 1 Waste of Money
Reviewer: Tonia L. Charles from Bossier City, LA.  Wed Feb 20 2008

Not only does this hair dryer suck, it sucks on ice. There is no power to it and it doesn't get very hot at all. I bought it as a package deal with the flat iron, so now I can't even return it. I would not recommend this hair dryer to African-Americans. It is clearly not for us.

Product Rating: 5 Awesome Product!!!
Reviewer: LISA HUNTER   Mon Feb 04 2008

This blow dryer is the best i have ever used. All the attachments stay on and it heats up in no time!!!


Product Rating: 5 BETTER THAN T3!!!!!!
Reviewer: Marisa   Wed Jan 30 2008

I have a T3 Tourmaline Evolution dryer and recently bought this Chi hairdryer at my local Harmon's because my T3 sounds like it's beginning to burn out in less than a year and I didn't want to be left one morning without a dryer to use. I really wasn't expecting this dryer to be as good as it turned out to be. I recalled that one my stylists used this on her clients and now I can see why. This dryer dries my hair in MUCH less time than the T3 and my hair has never looked better!!! The sound of the dryer is pleasantly low and the airflow is amazing. I highly recommend this dryer. I will always use Chi dryers from now on.

Product Rating: 1 Do not buy this product
Reviewer: ABA from Miami,florida  Tue Jan 22 2008

My dryer stopped blowing hot air after only 11 months. Very disappointed.

Product Rating: 1 What a waste of $100!
Reviewer: Lisa from RI  Wed Jan 02 2008

I returned my first dryer after only 10 months of use. A replacement arrived 4 weeks later from Farouk Systems. My replacement lasted 1 month!!! Now Farouk won't replace the dryer because the original - broken dryer is out of warranty. Excuse me?? My new dryer is 1 month old. I'm done with anything "CHI".

Product Rating: 1 Shocked: No hot air after 9 months
Reviewer: sheryl from california  Mon Dec 31 2007

My dryer stopped blowing hot air after only 9 months. A $20 drug store dryer has lasted longer than this one.

I loved it when it worked but after paying top dollar, I expected more than 9 months of personal use.
