This hair dryer very compact and perfect for traveling. It would be perfect for a carry-on. I used it for a trip abroad when I didn't have much space and wanted to limit the weight of my suitcase. It is much smaller than all of the other travel dryers I have seen. It has a lot of power for its size and dried my hair quickly. The only reason I did not give it five stars is because it has a funky hot plastic smell after I use it. My husband checked it out and said everything was working fine and it isn't' a safety concern. The smell goes away quickly.

I can't believe how POWERFUL this hair drier is for its size! It packs up super small, and the cord, (which probably rolls up the size of the dryer itself!), is extra long making it easier to use with limited outlet locations. The dual voltage will come in handy for any trip abroad. I'm pretty happy with it!

Wow so lightweight. It's unbelievably efficient. If it only had a cool setting it would be perfect.
Still it comes close. Great price.

I spotted this in the Target luggage section for about the same price and loved it at first sight and had to have it, lol!!!! It's the tiniest dryer I've ever seen!!! It almost fits in the palm of my hand, lol. Folded, it's 4-5 inches long (not counting the cord).
I've been using it for about a week now just to test it out before my trip abroad and it's surprisingly very strong. No weird smells as someone else mentioned... maybe their particular product has an issue. So far mine is working great. My hair is shorter so I'm not worried about how long it will take... but this thing is pretty strong. I'm done in minutes.
The other great thing is that it has "dual voltage." I had to read up on this because I haven't traveled in a while and I guess a whole lot of electronics and stuff like this is made dual voltage todayso check your product and educate yourself. Just look at this hair dryer, for example, and it will say 125V / 250V on the handle. This means it will work anywhere where the voltage falls in that range... most if not all of the world. BUT YOU WILL NEED AN ADAPTER when going abroad with this.
So here is the tricky part if this stuff is new for you, too... you DON'T need a converter (more expensive) for anything that's dual voltage... just an adapter. The adapter is just the little plug part that goes into the wall so you can plug it in. The converter is usually bigger and box-like and more expensive. It converts the voltage. You can find adapters for just a few bucks. Some dual voltage products have a little switch you have to bother with and it's dangereous if you forget to change that switch... no switch and no worries with this hair dryer!!
Just Google dual voltage and you can read up on it... and the difference between converter and adapter. All these things are helpful to know when traveling abroad.
I love this thing... best thing I bought for travel recently since finding a hand-held luggage scale!
I originally jumped the gun and gave this 5 stars. Read my updates below.
12/20/12 Update: This survived a trip to rural Bolivia and worked great... so long as I used it on low. When I turned it on high it was like a crazy loud rocket ship and I thought it would take off or start fire... it was frightening, lol. Yes, I did use my adapter, and it's possible it behaved this way because of the junkie old house with questionable wiring I was living in while in the mountains. Later I lived in a second, very modern house in the country's modern capital and it wouldn't plug into the wall at all in any part of the house!! Yes, it was the right plug shape and I have no idea what that was about, lol... again, the randomness is possibly the result of the house and the country I was in. Who knows. But I couldn't use it at all the last couple of months of my travels and that wasn't good.
I will continue to use it here at home in the USA where it works perfect. Maybe better for local travel and still a great size if you have limited luggage space. But I am changing my rating from 5 to 3 because the darn thing nearly gave me a heart attack the few times I accidentally put it on high while trying to turn it off. I am still highly recommending this product for travel, but taking it abroad may be questionable.
1/15/13 UPDATE: I barely started using it back home a month and the damn thing started making crazy noises and I thought it would explode or catch fire. It basically went dead. I tossed it in the garbage. I am now changing my 3 star rating to 1 star. I was wrong. Turns out this was a piece of unreliable crap and potentially dangerous unreliable crap after all... didn't even last me a year. And I barely used it!!!
