my hair is so smooth and shiny!

I bought this dryer for a trip to Italy b/c I didn't want to lug my normal one from home. Well there were shipping delays so I didn't get it in time, however, I am really happy with the dryer! It dries my hair way faster than my old dryer and it's so smooth and shiny. Biggest complaint is that it doesn't give my hair quite as much volume as my other dryer. I've had no problems with the attachment yet, it snaps on pretty securely.
Great travel dryer

This hairdryer is very practicable and functionable. I was afraid it wouldn't be warm enough since it only has two heat settings, but it worked just as well (if not better) than my full-sized Conair hairdryer which I use on a regular basis. The ion setting does in fact help control frizziness and static, which is a common problem for me since I have fine hair, and I also like that it has a cool air button. I do agree with the other reviewers that the attachment falls off easily (sometimes just by putting the dryer down -gently-), and that is my only complaint about it. Nonetheless, it's a very good dryer for travel and even every-day usage if you are looking for a compact dryer.
died after one year

i really like this dryer - it dries my hair faster than my old conair dryer and leaves it much more manageable. however, after one year (the length of the warranty) it simply stopped working for no apparent reason. i wound up buying it again because it is cheap and i did like it while it lasted but if you looking for something that lasts longer then i don't recommend it.
Good product - but file your warranty

This product is good, ionic hairdryer that folds down for easy travel. However, do file your warranty, I had bought one last year, and after 1 year the heat setting blew, I could only use the low heat setting.
So file your warranty on this.
Great!

I purchased the Hot Tools Anti-Static Ionic Travel Hair Dryer in June. I have had no mechanical problems with it at all. It is about the same weight, little less, than my old Conair. The barrel is almost 2 inches larger than those small white hotel wall mounted travel dryers. Works far better than those do. The folding handle is great for travel. I have thick, wavy, shoulder length hair and it is smoother, less frizzy just with this dryer. (I still use my Sedu Ionic Tourmaline Straightening iron though.) It dries my hair in less than 10 minutes. An definate improvement from my old Conair dryer. I would highly recommend this.
Great Product!

Bought this for an upcoming trip to Europe and have only tried it in the US but it is as good as my regular "home" hairdryer--the Babyliss Pro TT-- for 10% of the price! I have frizzy thin hair and the ionic feature really smoothes it. The nozzle attachement is not very secure (as others have mentioned) but I don't really use it. I am thrilled with the price and the quality of this hairdryer--as well as the good express shipping service from Folica.com.
Good - not great

This is a good hair dryer - not a great go-out-and-buy-it-right-now-or-you'll-regret-it hair dryer - but it's good for what it is. The anti-static button seems to work. I've been using it for about 2 weeks and haven't had any major static issues so far. The only problem I found with it is that the Concentrator attachment will not securely fasten. It just doesn't stay attached very well so the littlest bump makes it fall off. Other than that, this dryer works well.
excellent timesaver

I've never used an Ionic hairdryer before so i was blown away by how quickly the process took. my hair is coarse and thick and unrelaxed yet it took almost half the time it normally takes to dry it and it was sooo smooth! My hair texture was just right for the flat iron. Hot Tools Travel hairdryer has just the right weight and just the right price. I highly recommend this product.
just what I wanted

I am going to in England and wanted a travel blow dryer that could swith voltage. This one really worked well on my hair to dry it fast and smooth it out. I have thick curly hair that I straighten, so the attachment that comes with it is perfect. I also really like that it folds up and I've been using hot tools for years and am always satisfied.
a great travel dryer--especially for the price!

I needed a travel blowdryer and considered buying the T3 Tourmaline--but I could not bear to part with $130 (plus shipping costs)!!
I opted to buy the HotTools blowdryer instead and I have no regrets. It dries my coarse hair quickly.
One small quibble: the nozzle falls off relatively easily.
If I ever become a jet set traveler, I may buy a more expensive blowdryer. For the amount of traveling that I do, the HotTools travel blowdryer suits me just fine.
Not as described

This blow dryer left my hair frizzier and more fly away than usual. In addition, the concentrator attachment does not stay on. At the slightest touch, it falls off of the blow dryer.
good blow dryer

I just bought a second and third of these dryers, for guest room and another bedroom. Good combination of features, power and price. Not more noisy.
Great item at great price....

The hair dryer was exactly as described in the description on the site. It is not only light weight, but it is quieter than most and dries my hair quickly. It is portable and durable. I highly recommend this item.
What a deal!

This little dryer is compact and very effecient. It does at least as good a job as my larger dryer. I am very happy with it.
When it works, it works...when it doesn't, it stinks

After returning 2 and having the same problem, I gave up and will find a different dryer. The first one I had, the on/off switch didn't work. The only way to turn it off or on was to plug it in/unplug. I returned it. THe second one, neither the on/off switches or the heat setting switches worked. Tried again. The third one worked great for a month. THen, out of nowhere, the on/off switch broke. There was no way to turn it on. I gave up and got my money back.
Fine product - fastest shipping

The hair dryer works well and is relatively less noisy. Folica shipped it immediately; it arrived the day after I ordered it.
GREAT!

This is my second one! The 1st one lasted 5 yrs or more. This little dryer has power and the added ion element really makes a difference. Easy to take along when traveling.
Good

I bought this hair dryer about month and a half ago.. It dries fast, and leave is sort of silky.. I have really badly damaged hair due to lot of chemical treatments. Also, it is light.. But please make sure you don't use the dryer with an extension plug. It is mentioned in the fine print, which I didn't see, and cause it to blow off the fuse.
I am pretty satisfied with this product, but I will update in an years time, what I think….
Powerful!

This tiny, compact hair dryer packs a wallop with incredible power when on the 'high' setting. I usually start on 'high' and then switch to 'low' to finish drying and smooth out any strays.
I love this dryer!

I am completely satisfied with the Hot Tools 1039. It is compact, lightweight and dries my hair quickly and without the frizz I used to always get. I also think it is a great value. I was also really pleased with the promptness of Folica in filling my order.
