I had one of these exact models before. I liked it - very hot. But, the switch broke. I bought one again thru this website. I had it just at a month. The handle got to be too hit to hold. Like, REALLY hot. I ended up melting thru the plastic in 1 spot on the handle.
I wrote back and asked if I could do an exchange, or work out something. I got no reply at all. I finally decided to throw it away, as it was not safe to use. And, I could see that I was not going to get any assistance through the company that sold it to me.
Waste of around $35. I am very disappointed. My original one worked great, but I would not recommend it now, after that. I've never had a hard dryer melt the plastic on the handle
