Customer Reviews of Andis 33805 Micro Turbo 1600W Dual Voltage Hair Dryer
Customer Review: do one thing and do it well
Summary: 5 Stars
I replaced a Conair 1600 which was used daily for several years and finally died. I bought this based on the numerous good Amazon reviews and because some have said that the 1850 watt dryers might not work outside the U.S. Delivery was swift. The dryer feels substantial and well built. It dries more quickly than the old Conair without hair looking like I stuck my finger in a socket. As was mentioned before, this will dry anything short of a wookie very quickly. Highly recommended.
10/19/10: Just received a second Andis 33805 ordered 6 days ago as backup in the event this model 33805 is discontinued. The original has performed flawlessly and continues to feel well built.
Customer Review: Amazing Compact Hair Dryer - Light and Does the Job Well!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had my Andis 33805 Micro Turbo 1600W hair dryer for more than 2 years. I first tried it at a spa and loved it. I had never heard of Andis, but after using it for a week, I was sold on the brand. It's small, compact, light, easy to use, and very powerful. I like it so much that I don't want to risk not being able to replace it when my current one finally dies (unfortunately they all do at some point) and have just purchased 2. The price is great - $13.99 and purchasing 2 qualified me for free shipping. For a basic, well-made powerful dryer that's light and easy to maneuver, I haven't found any better.Customer Review: Great Hair Dryer
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this item because I was going to Europe for a month. I didn't want the hassle of using a voltage converter because you can only use one electric item at a time, unless you buy more than one converter kit. You do need a plug adaptor, (these are relatively inexpensive), then you just switch the voltage, plug it in and it works great. I used it in Switzerland, France and Italy. When I came home to the States I just switched the voltage back and I now use it at home. It is small and takes up very little space in the suitcase. I would recommend it for anyone in need of a hair dryer traveling abroad.Customer Review: Great size, but only the high speed works on the 250 setting
Summary: 2 Stars
Bought this hair dryer for our trip to Italy. Perfect traveling size, but when using the 250 voltage setting - only the high speed worked. It got way too hot on that setting to use comfortably. I ended up not being able to use it because it burned my skin and blew my hair too hard to style it. I started washing my hair at night and letting it air dry. The low and high settings work fine in the states on the other voltage, but it was a waste to buy it specifically for the dual voltage piece and then not be able to use it anyway.Customer Review: Misleading Information
Summary: 3 Stars
Yes, this hairdryer does have switchable voltage to work in both the US and abroad. However, what they fail to tell you is that not only do you need to buy and adapter to go from the unit to the proper outlet size, but you need an additional adapter to go into the wall. For those that have never traveled abroad this could be very frustrating. All in all my wife was satified in it's drying ability and ease of packing as it does not take up a lot of space (leaving her more space for that 5th pair of shoes that were so essential).
