I think my hairdryer is on its last legs – it makes a shrill noise when it’s first turned on, which dies down after a few seconds but it doesn’t sound good. It also sometimes smells like something is burning inside – I’ve removed the filter at the back but it keeps smelling. I’ve only had it for a few years but I do use it almost daily.  Even the bf said, “Maybe you need a new one”. I take that as encouragement to buy a new hairdryer! 😀

This is the model I currently own, which I do like:

Avanti Ultra GP-2000 Professional

What I’m looking for in a hairdryer:

• Not too noisy (I’ve returned hairdryers before because they sound like a freight train right next to my ear!)
• Not too heavy
• Powerful motor / long lasting
• Has varying heat setting plus cold shot option

Please recommend one to me!
