I have one of these. This morning, I used it to dry my hair and tried to shut it off. Only it wouldn't shut off . . . it kept going and the switch became very hot . . . the plastic housing began to melt! I had to unplug it to keep it from catching on fire! This is my second--and last--Vidal Sassoon product. I hate to think what would have happened if I had just set the hair dryer down on my night stand and it had started back up on its on--and had caused a fire. Like one of the other reviewers said, it always took a long time to dry my hair--and it's pretty doggone short, by the way--with this dryer, because the airflow was not very concentrated. I guess that if your house caught on fire from one of these faulty hair dryers, you could dry your hair from the heat of your burning home! I've never had a hair dryer fail so dramatically or catastrophically. My advice to everything out there is to NOT purchase this product! My next communication will be to the Consumer Safety Product Commission! This hair dryer could burn you very badly and start a fire! If you have one of these, please don't use it ever again! The life you save could be your own--or the lives of your family!

This is a great hairdryer for keeping your hair from being frizzy. It smoothes as you dry. I love the comb attachment. I use it to give my hair great body and lift. My hair is practically styled when I am finished drying it. I wouldn't be without it. I've already bought a backup dryer......same dryer.

It seem as though this would be a great product. Unfortunately, it stopped working after just a few months.

I have this dryer and I love it. Only problem is, when all the comb pieces break, its hard to find the replacement combs.
