I purchased the dryer based on its description on Amazon and it was not complete. There was no mention that the dryer had to be mounted over an electrical box and hard-wired into the box. I assumed it could be mounted and plugged in to an outlet. I managed to jeri-rig the installation and now it works just fine, very well actually. I do like the product.

I installed this unit during a bathroom remodel completed last June. By this April, it had stopped working. I'll probably order it again, because it fits perfectly in the allotted space and it does a great job on my hair, as well as keeping bathroom clutter to a minimum by being directly wired into the wall. However, I am not pleased that it failed so soon. Perhaps this was a bad unit and the next will prove more durable.

I ordered two of these dryers. I had used them before and I trust their quality. But, when the product arrived, I found that there was no plug on the end of the cord. These units are made to be hard-wired into the electrical system. I didn't see that clearly spelled out in the descriptive text when I was looking for the product. As such, instead of going thru the hassle of returning both of the dryers I went to Ace Hardware and purchased some plugs to put on the cords. Now I'm just hoping and praying the connections don't heat up and set the house on fire.
But the dryers themselves work great!
Honest reviews on Andis 33495 Wall Mounted Hang Up 1600 Watt Hair Dryer with Night
The product details never mentioned that the dryer has to be hard-wired to an electrical outlet since it doesn't come with a plug. As a result I returned the dryer because I wanted a traditional plug-in type, however none of the other product reviews mention anything about this so I decided not to order via Amazon until the product details are more accurate.

Unlike other reviewers, I got 4 years use from this dryer, then the low speed switch quit working. I have no complaints about the longevity of the unit. I also don't have any complaints about how well it dries. It does a great job. It has a small footprint on the wall and is light and easy to use. So why just 3 stars? On high speed it is noisy enough that it makes my ears ring. I measured it with my sound level meter at 1 foot from the unit at 117 decibels. It should be labeled as requiring hearing protection while using, but then, if you used those ear muff style hearing protectors, you might get a pretty crazy new look.
