Reviews of Revlon 1875W Rectractable Cord, Fold & Go Hair Dryer

Customer Ratings:

I recently had to replace a very quiet hair dryer. The model I had previously was not in stock, so I purchased this Revlon 1875w Tourmaline dryer because of the "super quiet" labeling. The retractable cord and folding handle were features that helped me decide which model to choose.

The folding handle is great for storing the dryer away more compactly.

The retractable cord is a very nice feature, though not perfect as it doesn't always fully retract if there's a slight bend in the cord.

The dryer may be "super quiet" compared to much older models, but the high pitched whine of the motor is unpleasant and not that quiet. Dh complains about it regularly.

The real deal breaker for me, however, is the power switch. It is a flat slide switch which is difficult to move to desired speed setting. Dh suggested I get some rubber finger tips from Staples so I'd have some traction. I'd rather get a quieter dryer with a switch I can operate.

I have ordered my previous brand online and will be returning the Revlon dryer as soon as the replacement arrives.

Trust everyone that says the switch is impossible...it is!!!! i actually have a small tool in my bathroom that I have to use to turn it on!!! It is loud but, honestly, I could deal with that if the switch wasn't the most ridiculous design EVER!

I rate this negative stars, but forced to provide at least one for review.

I purchased this hair dryer less than 10 months ago from Target. The selling points for me where the retractable cord, and quiet description. Retractable cord worked ok, at times got stuck. It was not quiet.

Lately I've noticed it made a funny sound once in a while. As if something were grinding in it.

Today I turned it on, and it started to shoot sparks!!! Luckily my hair was no where near the line of fire (literally)!

Sadly, I no longer have the receipt and doubt I can return it at Target. I will try to write Revlon but unsure if it will do any good. This is just a lesson learned to never buy Revlon hair dryer. I've had Conair in the past and never any issues. Heck they lasted about 10 years...

I would recommend anyone looking to purchase a hair dryer not to buy this one...unless you want your hair up in flames.

Honest reviews on Revlon 1875W Rectractable Cord, Fold & Go Hair Dryer

Would not recommend this product. It is heavy, loud, and difficult to use buttons. Buttons do not change positon easily. Also it seems to short out my electrical circuit. I have already replaced it. Does not dry hair faster or smoother than cheaper, lighter versions. Would not recommend.

I bought this dryer in a rush at Target and have regretted it ever since. My main issue with the design are the buttons. They are meant to be slid into position but I usually cannot get it to budge and have to try to force it my thumb nail, which isn't very pleasant.

It's also very loud and it constantly makes a popping crackling what-have-you noise like it may explode any moment.
