Conair miniPRO Tourmaline Ceramic Travel Hair Dryer with Folding Handle, Red

Very easy, very good, very easy to use

I love my tiny little blow dryer.It's red.After 15 years of faithful service, my old dryer went sideways.Spitting sparkling dragon flames at me, while I was defenseless, upside down.Once my hair stopped smoldering and my heart started to beat normally again, I ran to Amazon.This beautiful red blow dryer is just what I needed.It dries my shoulder length hair just as fast as a larger a model, mostly.This dryer will add a few seconds to your normal dry time,depending on the thickness of your hair.If you have been using a dryer with a larger diameter barrel. You'll notice.My hair is fine textured and dries fast. I can live with the loss of a minute.The thicker areas take extra seconds to completely dryYour mileage may vary.The low setting is gentle enough to create the perfect swirl on a baby's head.Or gently dry your toenails.If you are traveling, this will be the perfect comfort item from home.Clean, reliable, small.Watching a cute, red, tiny blow dryer in your vacation mirror,is one of life's small pleasures.Enjoy yourself wherever you may be.Cheers.

Compact with great power. Works great on travel without taking up too much space.

I am not sure how helpful my review/opinion will be but hopefully my photos showing size differences will at least help :)I hate hotel blow dryers they are never powerful enough and I feel like it takes forever to dry my hair. Since I was getting ready to take a trip in a week and my Dyson is just not very travel friendly with its big cord and such I went on the hunt for a travel blow dryer.I knew I wanted it to be small in size to save room but not small in drying power. I also knew I didn't want to spend a lot of money since I don't travel as much as I wish I did. It will likely only get used a few times a year. I ended up deciding to buy three different ones that sounded good (and had free returns) This is my 5 minute review and first impression.They each had two settings (high and low) I was happy with the high setting on each of them and thought the low setting was super lower…kind of wish they all had a medium. They also each have dual voltage. None come with travel a bag/pouch which I would have appreciatedConair Hair Dryer with Folding Handle and Retractable Cord, 1875W Travel Hair Dryer, Conair Blow Dryer ($15.97 at time of purchase)Pros: highest power at 1875W, retractable cord (I love retractable cords), only one with a cool buttonCons: It is the largest and heaviest of the three hair dryers. It felt (size and weight) more like a space saving home hair dryer then a travel one. Its just one step easier then bringing my Dyson. This got returned because I am getting a travel hair dryer because I want to save space.Such a shame the price was amazing.BaBylissPRO Nano Titanium Travel Dryer, Blue ($34.99 at time of purchase)Pro: Comes with concentrator nozzle, 6 ft power cord, smallest of the threeCons: Lowest power of the three at 1000W, highest price of the three, by the lack of plug cover and how the cord is wrapped around the handle right out of the box I am guessing it was already returned (not really a con more of a neutral for me)Conair miniPRO Tourmaline Ceramic Travel Hair Dryer with Folding Handle, Red ($22.99 at time of purchase)Pro: Color, I love the red, middle power at 1200W, comes with concentrator nozzle. 5 ft power cord, lightest of the three (figured by scientifically holding one in each hand and deciding which felt lighter)Con: Reviews that show the color seems to flake/peel off.Since the Conair (with retractable cord) was out right from the start due to its size it was down to BaBylissPro & Conair miniPro. While I liked the color of the Conair mini I was leaning towards the BaByliss due to the reviews on the red coming off the Conair. Then I checked the prices and went with the cheaper of the two….Conair miniPro.

Finally replacing the one I bought in 2017 - not because it doesn't work but because the outside looks like crap. Faded and worn. I have very thin hair so I don't want something that's going to blow too hard. This is perfect on the low setting. Great travel dryer, too.

Travel or not, this little dryer is FANTASTIC! I originally purchased this product because I was going out of the country and needed a dual voltage dryer to use while overseas, but it has turned in to much more than a euro-trip dryer! I was tickled by the size of this when it arrived; it's adorably compact, and the mini concentrator nozzle is so cute! But don't let it's cute looks fool you, this dryer packs a punch! Not only is it super lightweight, but the low and high settings went far above my expectations in terms of power and heat! You can easily adjust the power, but you can not adjust the heat. I didn't find this to be an issue because it's not too hot, but not too cool either (in my opinion). This dryer leaves my hair soft, bouncy and frizz/fly-away free (thanks to the concentrator). I love this dryer so much that it is now a permanent staple in my gym bag (it takes up less room than my sneakers!).I HIGHLY recommend this dryer to ANYONE. You don't have to be traveling at all to get a ton of use out of this dryer. Plus, it's compact size is PERFECT if you have a child who wants to start drying/fixing his/her hair (or play beauty shop), but maybe can't manage a regular sized dryer yet.A couple of helpful tips to keep in mind:1. if you use the dryer outside of the US (220V) you can turn the voltage-change-dial by using one of the plug prongs, but BE SURE to only operate the dryer on the LOW setting. The low setting on 220V provides the same/comparable power that the high setting would on 125V (which makes sense). if you are using this dryer in the US (125V) you can use both the low and high settings.2. sometimes the concentrator nozzle feels a tiny bit loose, so keep that in mind if you're tossing it in your suitcase/bag because it might pop off it the bag is jostled around

I love that this hairdryer is so light weight. It works great for home and travel. I also love the red color.

This is a nifty little dryer with big drying power, but the color of the red one I received bleeds when lain on a damp towel or when a drop of water is left on the handle. Very strange.
