My new Andis puts out very little air flow on any speed compared to my old Revlon dryer. Is something wrong with it? Or just cheap China made parts?

I agree with you on how and where they are made, they just aren't as good as the older dryers. Mine does not put out the air flow that an older one did either. Apparently they are made quit a bit differently now. I do not have an answer as to why, as mine is dong the same thing. I don't care for the soft brush either.. Sorry, I am no help

The air speed seems to be the same on both the medium and high settings; the only difference is the amount of heat. Although it doesn't seem to have as much air flow (or noise!) as my previous ionic dryers, it nevertheless dries my very thick and very long hair faster.

I think my hair dryer would of done a better job...you get what you pay for, I found out, it does not fair well. As I recall it lasted about 20minutes before it blew our fuse...it ended up in the trash

The element has nothing to do with a dryer being to hot. You need to check the thermostats and the air flow. I would check the exhaust dust first to make sure it is open. Any restriction in the exhaust duct will restrict air flow and cause a dryer to overheat. Another symptom of duct problems will be long drying time and very hot, sometime steaming, clothes.

I have a fridgidaire dryer and it worked fin in that. I would suggest getting a fuse too. I blew mine after I replaced the coil. It's cheap and easy as well, but you might as well do them at the same time.

Hi Victor, not sure why your hair dryer would be making weird noise. Mine makes noise, but it's normal like it would be for any blow dryer. Maybe take it to the salon and ask a stylist if they think it's making weird noise. Stylist would know for sure since they work with so many dryers. Maybe it needs to be fixed.

Absolutely not - they did put out a reasonable amount of air (but not nearly what a challenger does) for a few months until all FIVE of them I purchased smoked, sparked and seized up. Downright dangerous. B-Air is a terrible company, they would not replace them, and eventually just ignored my emails and calls. They would claim they needed to research or look into it, and I would just never hear back from them. Four of the small 1 hp dryers and one of the 4hp ones - all dead within 6 months. I bought two other dryers from PetEdge that appeared to be made by the same company, and those lasted a bit less than a year before screaming and belching smoke. That is about $800 worth of dryers - they were maybe used two or three times a week, and cleaned properly. Stay away from B-Air.

I will tell you that this dryer broke on me in less than 3 months- and I only use a hair dryer about once a week. It was bought to replace a Conair that I had had more than a decade before it bit the dust. Might have been a fluke, but the EVA one I got to replace it has a much heavier feel and a thicker electric cord. I've only had it about a week though so I can't attest to its longevity yet.

I haven't paid much attention. My dryer is in a room we don't use very much. I usually have a full load of clothes and it's not very noticeable. But, when I'm drying a small load of delicates and the dryer isn't full it's a little noisy.

This is another brand. It made my AC blow very low. I suggest buying the original part. Youll be sending this one back.

What? Mine didn't even come with extra pieces! It also did not fit on any of three different Conair dryers ... so much for universal fit! Those pieces may be necessary after all. Good luck!

Hi Chris. It has 3 fan settings of low/med/hi. So because of the way that the Universe works, a faster fan blowing over the heating element feels like it is hotter air on the highest fan setting when in fact this is merely just a larger volume of heat displacement. For the record, I have no idea if heat displacement is even a thing - I sucked at physics. But it sounds like a good enough phrase to try and fabricate to tell you that the there is no change in the intensity of the heating coil, just the intensity of the blowing job it is performing. I suppose it is possible that the dolt that wrote the description *might* have been trying to convey that it also has 3 cool settings as well. If you depress that button in the grip area the dryer's heating element shuts off for as long as you hold the button. So, by default you would have 3 cool settings as well since you can adjust the fan speed at the same time you have the button depressed. However, it is most likely the listing writer is just a moron and should never have chosen this as a career. I hope this helped.

I recommend you get the vent kit for this dryer and it's less than $20.00. OR you can do like I did and put a panty hose on it, helps heat my house and not much noise....smells good too!! I hope this helps you...

Maybe an upgrade? Check the Merv specs. If that doesn't help , email Lennox. I love mine. No dust!

I believe it's t the Maytag Maxima HE Steam Dryer. We do not have the dryer because we found out after buying the washer that the dryer had poor reviews. Most people complained that it did not dry the clothes very well.

This is a Whirlpool/Sears product. I would suggest that if your dryer does not product heat and the coils are broken or damaged; you should google your model number looking for a parts listing. When you see the element they should provide a drawing of the various parts in this assembly. From what I have seen these are much a standard part. You might want to try this trick, if this is the only part you need to replace. This is some type of fuse to keep your dryer from overheating. Take it out and if you can test the leads, if you can. If not the top should be flat and yours may now be more domned. If this is the case throw in on a concrete floor three or four times. This causes the dome to flatten and if you did measure the ohms should see a change from negative to positive. Bottom line no need to replace this part, if this is all that is wrong.

It just has a high low and off. Idk about the v . I love this dryer . I've used it for years. I've had 3 or 4 over the passed 10 years. Wouldn't use any other dryer.

No it's not, I've bought it for my mom who lives in Iran and this is not working properly and burnt her hair and also the diffuser has MELTED even though she was using the LOW heat! I have a picture of the melted diffuser and I'll post it after I check with the company to see if something was wrong with that specific dryer or this is general and can happen to everyone?! (because I have the same one here in US and it is working very well).
