I bought this hairdryer a few months ago and it is far and away the best one I have ever had. It is light, has a long cord, easy to use buttons, not loud, and is really powerful. It cut my drying time in half. I read about it in Wirecutter and it was a great recommendation. The price is reasonable too. You won't regret buying this.

Dryer worth every penny for healthier hair

Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2015

Color: WhiteSize: 1 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

This dryer is amazing. Initially I bought hot tools tourmaline tools 2000 from Ulta because a stylist helped me pick one out for my needs. I returned it after a week of use and got this one. Even through prices were similar, Rusk is a big step up.

My hair type: fine and thin but a bit "fluffy" which gives volume and makes it look like I have a lot of hair but if not straightened well, can turn into big, frizzy fluff ball. My hair is between very wavy and loose curl so I wash and straighten it every day with a blow dryer only. No straighteners.
Pros:
- the warm setting dries my hair quickly without drying it. I used to buy cheaper dryers that would get really hot to help straighten hair. But that did a lot of damage too. With Rusk, I can dry even faster now a days with warm setting that doesn't cause the damage
- hot still gets hot, not just somewhat warm. I use this setting when there is a kink in my hair that I need to just blast with a shot of hot air to get it out. Hard to believe I used to use that hot or even hotter with cheap dryers to do all my hair
- all buttons do not stick out, so you do not hit them accidentally when drying. They are indented so you can hold it normally and not switch settings when you don't mean to
- cool button is easy to hit. Even though it's indented, it's easy to press only when u need it. I don't mistakenly press it ever
- cool setting seems to be same cool as the cool button which I like so if I'll be using it for a while, I do not have to hold cool button
- dries my hair really fast even with cooler setting
- I've been using it for about a month now, and my hair feels healthy and shiny as if I just got saloon deep conditioning
- very light weight but very sturdy. When I pick it up, I do not feel like it's cheaply made like I do with any other lightweight dryer
- because many times I dry my hair upside down, hair gets sucked into the back of hair dryer with some dryers. This one has a decent protection there and I haven't had any incidents with my hair getting sucked in

Cons:
- the only thing that I do not like is the setting order on buttons. The heat button goes from warm, to cool, to hot. So if I am drying on warm and need hot, there is cool setting in the middle instead of them going in incremental order. Same with speed setting: off is in the middle and low is on the left, high is on the right. So it's taking me a while to get used it where with other dryers I can do the switching without looking within the first few days

Overall, I'll get used to one minor con for an amazing dryer.

Power, dry Faster n light weight

Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2020

Color: RegularSize: 1 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I always use professional hair dryers. My last Rusk speed freak start giving me some problems after like 8 years of continuous use but it wasn't the hair dryer's fault, was my house that had some electrical problems. I Love Rusk Speed Freak and they work fantastic, duration is awesome no matter the use. Dry faster than others, powerful hot air that helps a lot to dry my hair quicker in less time, leaving my hair completely straight, shinny, without that frizzy oncoming that scares all of us specially when we are in humid places or it's a rainy, snowing or a hot sweating day. If you use a good hair brush and do a good job drying and straightening your hair with this hair dryer believe me, your hair your can be straight for the whole week just to give an example. I have like 10 years using this brand Rusk speed freak and the w8less version and they leave my hair straight and with a shine that others can't... i have a T3 cura that is good and leave your hair with a good shine but.... it takes more time drying and the worst part it looks good for a time but the frizziness start to appear in less than an hour, maybe hood for people with thin straight hair just to dry thheir hair but for straight hair if you have curly, wavy or coarse hair that needs a jod job from the roots to the end, this expensive one doesn't. Sometimes i want to use something new or different Just to check if there's something better but i regret it and return to this ones. Wasting lots of money in another hair dryers. I have curly beachy mix waves that is not easy to manage and the worst part is that I'm on medication that leave my hair super dry with split ends all the time no matter how many times cut my hair or use biotin or others vitamins and the only hair dryers that help me a lot in hide the dryness and that split ends is the 2 Rusk mentioned before. Honestly, For me this one is one of the best ones... i have like 20 hair dryers different brands including the super expensive dyson one that work well but not like this one.

I was Skeptical

Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2024

Color: WhiteSize: 1 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I was skeptical when I first got this hair dryer. Sure, it moves a lot of air but it is a bit heavier than I expected. I also don't like the non-flexible cord. The dryer is well balanced and while I had similar problems other have with where the switches were located, I got used to them fairly quickly. After using it for a few days I've decided I really like this dryer. It does move a lot of air and using the concentrator makes it easy to direct and makes drying fast. Very fast. Despite moving so much air it doesn't feel like standing in a wind tunnel. I'm satisfied with it and hope it will last longer than ones I buy for half the price.

My Best Purchase All Year!

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2024

Color: WhiteSize: 1 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Decided to replace my old Conair hairdryer with this one and I absolutely love it. It dries my long hair in a matter of minutes. The air is very powerful, yet quiet. It is light weight. The best part is I save time now when I dry my hair. Only negative is the buttons are on the handle where you hold it so I sometimes turn it off when I do not mean to.
