Honestly so impressed with this machine. I was also using a cheap $30 mini hairdryer prior to this one, so I come from a long way.
I bought it in Feb '23 (reviewing in July '23), so these are my thoughts after 5 months.
Pictures show a little scratch that I have just made by dropping it from table height to a concrete floor. Tiny damage, strong build ; I know this will last me years !
Lighter than the Dyson, and in my opinion more compact and better looking (I work with hairstylists for my job). Save yourself $300 (I had bought it for $170). Also I noticed that a lot of people having the Dyson had it broken at the part that sucks in the air (the metal thing gone, the machine still functioning). Since Dyson is now facing growing competition, I don’t believe that it’s the best in the market anymore.
Now when it comes to this Tymo beauty, its functions are well thought, I use every single one of them depending on what I am doing that day ; straightening, blowing out, enhancing curls with little or high volume. It does it all. For reference I have 4A type hair.
Volume is optimal, you can blow dry your hair at 6am without being too much of a hindrance to your partner/flatmates, if not at all on the lower setting. Strongest wind is very strong indeed and dries my hair completely in 15-20mn (regular hair dryer would need double if not more).
