It's not at all too heavy for personal use, and while it's not quiet, exactly, the pitch is a lot lower than my old one's, so it's better for not waking up the house. I don't notice my hair drying substantially faster than before, but it's shiny and smooth when I'm done.
One Of The Best

I have thick hair down to the middle of my back. This product dries my hair within 6 minutes. It has 2 speed settings and 3 heat settings (off position is the cold shot). While it's on the low speed setting, you can barely hear it. I usually use it in the high heat setting which is about as loud as the low heat setting on most blow driers. I'm extremely pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone that is tired of spending the entire morning trying to dry their hair.
Better than average

This hairdryer is definitely better than the drugstore variety that I have used all my life. I bought it for it's power and it's control tip. I was told by my hairdresser that a narrow nozzle would make a difference in the results of blowdrying my hair. I have curly hair that I try to straighten. It's a challenge in humid climates but this dryer does dry better and give me a better finished product.
It is also a little quieter than other dryers I've had. It's not high pitched like so many are. I did not think it was any heavier in weight that others. Over all I am very pleased with this dryer. I would recommend it. The sale price made it a good buy.
great value!

This product does what it says!!
The only draw back is, I wish it was a little lighter.
It is a great value!
Not For Thin Hair

Not recommended. I used Babyliss before this and it doesn't compare to the hair care that Babyliss gives. It dries my thin hair horribly, making it coarse. I have gone back to Babyliss which is heavier but ten times the dryer.

I love this hair dryer. I had the flat iron first and love it. So i thought i would give the hair dryer a chance. I think it is great. The hair feels amazing and it is so soft. I tell everybody about it ( i am a hair stylist also.)
Good, lightweight dryer

I can't say this dries my hair any quicker than the other dryers I have used, nor can I say it is really quieter, but it is a nice dryer. I was using the Babyliss Ceramix Extreme before it's temper burned up on me and this dryer seems about a million times lighter than that one. The location of the rocker switches took a little getting used to, but once you're aware of their placement, it's fine. The cool air it puts out when using that setting is truly cool, which is something that can't be said of all dryers. And it may be my imagination, but I do feel like my hair looks shinier and smoother with this dryer than my Babyliss. The price isn't too shabby either, especially if it's a product that will last. Oh, and the color is cute :P
Love it

I have never owned a hair dryer that cost more than $30 so I was skeptical about this one. However I love it! It definitely dries my hair faster than my old drugstore hairdryer. My hair is a little less frizzy too, but I still need to use my straightening iron (which I expected.) Overall I highly recommend this hair dryer- the extra time it saves drying my very thick, wavy hair is time well saved!
Great Hair Dryer

The Solia Thermal Ionic Hair Dryer is a great purchase! It is powerful, light weight and rather quiet. The contoured handle makes it easy to hold. My hair dries quickly and is very soft. I'm very pleased with this hair dryer!

I bought this model for the price. It was the best price for the style I was looking for for my mother in law Christmas gift. She likes it. Folica was a good place to buy it from.
excellent, but not perfect

Fantastic product that helps my hair look super smooth and shiny and cuts down on the time I spend getting ready. It's raining right now in Northern CA, and for the first time I don't have to worry about any frizz...I absolutely love it!
The *only* drawback is that it doesn't come with a diffuser.
Just what I wanted

This was my first purchase of a "salon quality" hair dryer and it has not disappointed me in the least. The price was reasonable and I feel like I got a great deal. Would highly recommend to people whose hair takes a longer time to dry.
WOW!!!!

I was very skeptical at first, but LOVE this dryer.
It dries my hair in about a 1/2 hour (i have mto be careful not to burn my hair though), where it would take me over an hour with other ion dryers. My hair doesn't need "touching up" with a flat iron afterward which is ALSO wonderful!.
I was peasantly surprised.
Thanks for a wonderful product.

This hair dryer, though a little noisy and heavy in weight, is powerful and dries my hair quickly with less damage than other hair dryers. It is ergonomically easy to handle, and heat levels are precise. I purchased this dryer for me, and my daughter liked it so much I purchased another one for her. She has thick, long hair and she says it dries her hair in half the time as her old dryer.

For years, I have been frustrated by the fact that my hair never looked as good as the day I get my hair cut. My hair is thick and tends toward frizzy, yet I was sticking with my cheapo Conair until the bitter end. I finally ordered the Solia after reviewing many reviews on this website for this and similar products. I have been very pleased with the results -- particularly in terms of my hair's appearance, which is much smoother and straighter. Many people have complimented me on the change. It is also dry in about half the time that I used to spend, which is certainly a bonus. The only downside is the weight of the hair dryer. My arm definitely gets tired before I am ready to switch sides...I guess I should view it as a built-in workout.

I love this hair dryer - its probably the best one I've ever owned. I've had several hair dryer's that I had purchased at either a drug store or bigger store that just died on me pretty quickly. This hair dryer feels like it will last a long time. It dries my hair quickly - and my fine hair does not look frizzy afterwards. My favorite feature - besides the instant cool shot - is the rubbery red ring around the dryer that keeps it from slipping off the counter.

I really like this dryer but it broke after 6 months. The low speed won't work and the high speed is starting to slow down. I am going to purchase another for one last chance. I really like the medium heat setting. It doesnt burn my color treated hair.

I was very excited to get this hair dryer especially after so many good reviews but unfortunately I discovered that it makes my hair extremely dry.I had to return it. It seems like this dryer is not the best choice for the thin hair as I read another not-so-happy review by the person with thin hair. I'm still in search for my perfect hair dryer but Solia 1875 is not the one ;-(
