    Great Product!!!
    I am a professional stylist...17yrs in the business, and I love the chi hairdryers. Their basic model is great, but lacked the power that the rocket possesses. They all held up fairly well with daily use, but the cords always blew out due to getting twisted from use. I wish their was a dryer with a swivel. New models of dryers that i've purchased look great, and are smaller and more compact, but lacked the heat output of the rocket...still searching for the next best thing.

    The Best!
    I'm a hairdresser and I love this blowdryer. I have used this model for years. It's lightweight and dries the thickest hair so much faster than anything else that I've tried. Thank goodness for Folica selling only genuine Chi products. I bought one from Drugstore.com and it was a fake. The barrel was not made of the same material as the Chi and got hot to the touch after the dryer had been running a minute. The Chi stays cool. The Chi also lasts forever! By the way, Drugstore.com never gave me a refund on the fake Chi that I returned eventhough it was sent back within a week. Thank you Folica for selling genuine Chi products. Your price is lower than I would have to pay at the supply house.

    I Love This Dryer!
    I inherited a special edition CHI dryer from my stylist- she used it for 3+ years every day on her clients and it had finally kicked the bucket. My husband knows how to fix things like that so she gave it to me to see if I could get it working and keep it. I brought it home and out of curiosity plugged it in and it worked! It worked great- I was stoked. I used it for another 3 years, and still have it- it still works. The piece that holds the fan in place is breaking, so I knew if I continued to use it all the time it would go so I order the CHI Rocket. OMG- the other dryer was wonderful, this one dries even quicker! I have super thick hair and before the CHI dryers it took forever! Its not drying, it doesn't make my hair frizzy, its the best. I've had it for just over a year now, I wanted to wait to ensure it lasted. Out of curiosity on the last one I called up customer service at CHI about their warranty, I don't know if this is still the same, but even if you've had the dryer for a few years, if it stops working you can send it to them with a check for $35 for shipping, they will try to repair your dryer, if they can they'll fix & ship it back, if not they'll send you a brand-new basic CHI dryer- either way you're back in business for $35, much cheaper than buying a new one. I love these dryers!

    Great Dryer But Dies With A Few Months Use.
    My second CHI rocket dryer died after using it for less than 3 months. Just can't justify spending another $200 on such a horribly made dryer!

    Disappointing
    I regret buying this dryer. It only has two heat settings and they are both too hot!! It's not quiet, and given the price, a big disappointment.

    Great But Inconsistent
    I loved my CHI rocket so much that I bought a second one just like it to keep my in RV. Wouldn't you know it the second one blew up after 3 months? I surmise that this dryer is great when it works, but there are troubling flaws in the manufacturing process, so that you sometimes get a dud. If you can lose $150 without major stress it is worth the gamble. It's a wonderful dryer for my VERY curly red Irish hair.

    Love It..great Results
    I purchased this hair dryer 4 years ago from Folica. Its the best hair dryer I have ever used and I have used many professional hair dryers. It is very astetically appealing. I love the way it lights up when the infra red setting is on. I also love how you just have to press the cool shot once instead of continously holding it down.

    It is very powerful. It only takes a few min to dry my hair ( i have fine to normal long hair).

    Unfortunately when I was on holiday I accidently pluged it in to to a 240 V soccet and the inside burnt and started smoking. The hairdryer was just like brand new 4 years on and would probably have lasted me another few years.

    i recently purchased a Sedu Revolution Pro Tourmaline Ionic 4000i Hair Dryer base on reviews of that product, however I prefer the Chi Rocket and would definately purchase the rocket over the Sedu.

    My New Best Friend!
    LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE CHI ROCKET!! Okay so obviously I love the chi rocket hair dryer :) It can be difficult to tame black hair. My hair has a mind of its own and does whatever it likes. It's thick and long and without proper care can be unruley. My hair is also so soft so heat products make it managable. This dryer makes my hair so shiny and smooth and straight!!! I love chi products and they do my hair wonders. I know I can always rely on them to make my hair beautiful. I also own a chi flat iron and in combo with the dryer my hair looks relaxed! LOVE IT!
