    Before anybody goes there. I know this is crazily expensive still. But it is a major discount on a product that normally sells at >400 and rarely gets discounted.

    My o/h swears by hers.

    I was luckily. Spotted it by chance. They only seem to have the price listed in T2. But if I was in T1 I’d chance asking.

    Great price if you're in the market for one. Dont think I've ever seen such a heavily discounted Dyson product.

    Great price. You’d still get that for second hand well maintained items on donedeal.

    My wife swears by hers too and wouldn’t go back to any other hair dryer.
    I got it on adverts 2 years ago for €200. Bargain!

    You can also just walk between the two airside if you leave yourself enough time arriving before your flight.

    I paid 450 for mine Inc the case. No regrets.

    Thoroughly recommend it.

    Anyone in the market, go for it.

    So I called and reserved one. Terminal 2 only.

    My flight is from terminal one. Can I move between terminal without any issues?

    No problem, once you leave yourself enough time, roughly 10 minute walk between the two.

    I heard it makes your hair longer, sexier, shinier, silkier and blows the dandruff right into the woods..... It's the biggest innovation since Wash & Go - "Bring 2 bottles into the shower? Not me....."

    Herself got one of these and she isn't into marketing hype but from day one she says its many times better than the normal hair dryers she has used- but yea, a lot of bucks for an air heater/mover

    I was going to post Uncle Bumblefukc. Beat me to it.

    He tests it’s against a $30 hairdryer at around 20 mins in. Both perform about the same.

    The Dyson is a godsend for me having come in from the gym. Hair dried in a flash. It's very light and has much less noise than any other hairdryer Ive used.

    As a consumer, I can vouch 100 per cent for this product. It lives up to the hype.

    I reckon that one of the reasons the product is being discounted I because of the new dyson curler, which also has a dryer attachment with it. Had I not bought the hairdryer at the time, I might just have bought the curler thing instead.

    I used it once, had it up full and it blew my hair off. I’m bald now. ...

    Read the reviews. , basically if your hair is straight it’s of no benefit. If you hair is curly and so on it gets good reviews

    These have been out a while, is there any copycats on the market from other manufacturers?

    Her hair looks nice but the evidence is that it's being burnt.

    Don't think there's anything fancy technology wise.
    It has a fan that blows air through a heating coil.
