Our best-known dryer. A dial sets the airflow anywhere between gentle and full, three heat settings sit beside it, and a diffuser and concentrator come in the box.
Most dryers give you low and high. This one gives you a dial: roll it with your thumb and the airflow changes smoothly, so you can slow it down for fine hair around the face and open it up for the back of the head. Heat is separate, with cool, warm and hot on their own switch.
The motor turns at up to 21,000 rpm and the dryer draws 1600 watts. The rear cover twists off for cleaning, and its mesh keeps long hair from being pulled in. It comes in eight colors, each with a matching diffuser and concentrator.
Know before you buy
The body does not fold, and buyers with thick hair describe the airflow as moderate, not forceful. If you dry a lot of dense hair, look at our 1875W salon dryers.

Keep it dry
Use the dryer in a dry room and keep it away from a filled sink or tub. The ALCI plug cuts the power if current leaks, and it is there as a backup.
This hairdryer is lightweight and easy to hold, so arm does not get tired while drying hair. Even though it is small, the fan power is strong and dries hair much faster than expected. The speed control wheel lets you adjust the airflow exactly how you want it, which is a nice feature. It comes with a diffuser attachment that works great for curls without making them frizzy. The cord is a good length and the whole thing packs easily for travel. it works fantastic for the price and feels like a great daily dryer. Highly recommended.

Powerful, easy to use, and a great value
I’m really happy with this hair dryer. It has strong airflow, dries my hair quickly, and the different attachments make it easy to use depending on the style I want. The diffuser is especially useful, and everything feels simple to attach and use. For the price, the quality has been very good and it does exactly what I expected. I would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a powerful and practical hair dryer without spending too much.

Highly recommended travel hair dryer.
This has been the best hair dryer ive had so far. The heat levels are perfect for me. My other one ive had for a while now has always made my hair flat and felt thin. With just the first use with this hairdryer, i have. Been able to get salon results. It’s light weight and easy to travel with, however i do recommend getting a small bag to hold the components in to make travel easier. Another thing to note it is much quieter than my other one, i have not needed to use my head phones to block out the noise. The attachments are easy enough to pop on and off, just pull gently to swap out either one.

Small, light, cute. Not a TON of blowing power, but works good for drying my fine hair quickly.

1600W Ionic Hair Dryer or Plasma Ionic Hair Dryer: which CONFU should I pick?
Pick the Ionic 1600 for the speed dial and the color choice: 8 colors from $29.44. Pick the Plasma if weight matters most: its body is 0.74 lb, and it adds an automatic hot and cool cycle.

1600W Ionic Hair Dryer: quick answers
Is the CONFU 1600W Ionic dryer strong enough for thick hair?
For shoulder-length hair, yes: the motor turns at up to 21,000 rpm. Buyers with thick hair call the airflow moderate, and for them an 1875W model dries sooner.
How do you clean the filter on the CONFU 1600W Ionic?
Twist off the rear cover, wipe the lint from its mesh and twist it back on. It takes under 1 minute, and a clear filter keeps the dryer from overheating and shutting itself off.
