Is this hair dryer hard wired?

No. It plugs into a wall outlet. I plug mine into a quad outlet on the left side of the wall above my sink/vanity. It has held up. Very well and I am most satisfied.

No it is not. It is like any other hair dryer. It just has a convient wall holder that the dryer snaps into to save counter space.

yes. btw the dryer includes a diffuser that broke when I tried to attach it so it didn't work with that attachment but otherwise a good hair dryer.

It's 15amps. Have used my hairdryer without any issues but I don't know what you need. Most GFI's seem to be 15amps.

The Sunbeam 1629-020 is no longer manufactured buy Sunbeam. The direct wire version of the hair dryer, Model 1629-040 is still available. Note that the direct wire model does not come with a plug and needs to be hard wired to electricity. Here is a link to Sunbeam Model 1629-040. http://www.amazon.com/Sunbeam-1629-040-Mounted-Dryer-Wired/dp/B007O38HA6/ref=sr_sp-btf_title_2_28?m=A2CDOJ5N7L4Q70&s=merchant-items&ie=UTF8&qid=1392962311&sr=1-28 Best regards, WallMountDryer

No, this is not a cordless hair dryer. Wish they would invent one, which would be very versitle.

Yes. It is hardwired into the wiring to the fan. I currently have mine wired to an outlet where I plug in a big box fan in my shop. It has worked well for several years.

Yes, it does. Just as hard as my full size 1875 watt blow dryer. I absolutely love the power, heat and size of this one!

No, it's hardwired. I bought one as a replacement for the aftermarket unit I had that quit working. It fit right into the bracket/power supply already installed in my car.

I don't believe it is. If you do get this dryer, just know if your using it and stop, it may not restart right away. You'll have to let it cool down, blow into it, you'll hear the over-heat switch click, then it will work. A bit annoying!

I am not sure but I have had 2 of these blow dryers and the power on both started cutting out within 6 months. It seems to have connection issues.

The Fan is set up to be hard wired. You can wire a 3 wire "pigtail" plug on it with no problem. You can get a cord like this at any electrical supply store or home improvement box store like home depot or Lowes. If you want a dryer fan pre-wired and ready to go, you would want to order a DBF 4XL by Fantech

I am not where my hair dryer is, so can't say, but it is clearly stated on the information for the unit. Whatever it is rated at, it is certainly enough to dry my very thick hair in a short amount of time. I really love it.

It depends which is not the answer you wanted to hear! Check out the wattage of the hair dryer - if it exceeds the wattage of the power outlet then no.

No, it isn't hardwire at all. It is screwed onto the wall but you have to plug it into an outlet.

it has a 20 amp plug where your dryer has a 30 or 40 amp. they are not the same.
