It will dry your hair. Eventually... It doesn't heat up that much and softly blows mild warm air. I guess it would be good for very young children with light whispy hair but that's it. Show details

Very sticky mess – Bought approximately 2 years ago still in the box and both hairdryers casings have completely deteriorated to an all sticky mess making them unbearable to hold due to it sticking to your hands. We live in Cairns, this product is not suitable for the tropics! Show details

Died within 20 seconds of turning on – Now admittedly it was on the wrong voltage for Australia but in my opinion you shouldn’t have to change this when purchasing a product in Australia. Found out afterwards it had been set on the lower voltage at purchase. Not happy. Show details

Perfect hair dryer for travelling – I have had this lovely hair dryer for 11 months. This hair dyer always stays in my luggage and has been travelling with me overseas several times already. It is light and efficient, and heats up very quickly. Perfect size and perfect price, I highly recommend it. Show details

Affordable and easy to use – Very portable and light! Took around 5 mins to completely dry my hair. Was initially skeptical about the durability considering the price but it's still working just as new! Kmart products are always valued for money and never fail to disappoint me. Would definitely recommend this product. Show details

Worth the money – Just like any normal hairdryer, but it's way cheaper than the others. Was actually in doubt at first if we should buy but my wife did the right thing. Worth the money! Show details

Brilliant little dryer – I take this baby with me everywhere I travel. So light and easy to use, I have shorter hair and it takes about 5-7mins to completely dry. Does what it states. Show details

Good investment – It was worth the money. Been using it for over a year and no issue. Quite affordable and easy to use and control in terms of the temperature and fan

Broke on third use – I bought this hair dryer with the intention of taking it traveling with me, but it broke before I got the chance. It performed okay the first two times I used it, but on the third time it wouldn't turn on and gave out a burning smell. It may be cheap, but I wouldn't recommend it -- better to spend $10 more for a decent dryer with a bit more longevity.

amazing value – this is awesome! it cost me only $10 & is still going fine 6 months later which is more than i can say for the supposedly superior brand name i had which cost 3 times as much. It even folds up if i want to take it traveling.

Great hair dryer at a great price! – This little hair dryer is so compact you can take it anywhere but it still has the power of a normal sized dryer. It dries your hair in no time. Fantastic price also!

Super compact - works great – We have this from our big trip to WA. Its compact as anything - tiny! But it is a powerful and competent little hair dryer. In some ways being so small is better as it is some easy to style with - was great value too!

Tiny but mighty powered – This is such a little hair dryer but its been all up the coast with us and down again. It pumps out a lvolume of air for such a little unit and works wonderfully. No complaints at all and especially for the price.

Fabulous little hair dryer – We bought this as an afterthought when travelling and it turned out great. Still gets used at home. Its tiny but heats up beautifully and pumps out a heap of air. Its lightweight and has a reasonable cord size. No worries at all with this - definitely recommend.

Works well - Super value! – I use this most mornings. I just bought it as a travel dryer but when my home dryer went boom, I started using it and didn't stop. Its not the most powerful ever, but it gets the job done and is extremely easy to style with due to its compact size. It has the normal hot/warm hi/low settings and just works! It was cheap as chips to buy too!

Cheap as anything works well – This is so cheap and it works very well. I like its tiny compact size because its so easy to maneuver around and style with. I take it travelling but I use it at home sometimes too - just depends. I would definitely buy the same one if I left it somewhere . its a good little hairdryer

Awesome Value Works Well – The title pretty much covers it with this. This hairdryer is SO good for the price that it is silly. It puts out heaps of air and the small size makes it a breeze to style with. I always use it on the road and often at home too. Good value and works well - no negative points except the brand isn't posh

Cheap and value – It works well, low budget, the blow is not too strong, lightweight and very handy to travel. It doesnt make big noise. I bought it first because it is the cheapest, but I feel alright with what I need.

Great budget level travel hair dryer – Bought this for my 12 yo middle daughter as a Christmas present. It still works and she is happy with it. Pretty good for the $10.00 price tag. So far it works as it is meant to. A good performing hair dryer with consistent heat & 2 temperature settings for drying hair. It can be a bit loud but quick and easy to use..Highly recommend this hair dryer if you are looking for an affordable but easy to use hair dryer for your child .

Worked Well For Years – I had this for many years and it has finally given up after being used daily. I bought it on holiday in Queensland and it was never supposed to be my main dryer but it became it because it's actually really excellent. Its tiny and compact but it puts out a tonne of hot air and until last week I used it every morning. It has now been replaced by a shiny new Remington but I am completely happy with the service it gave.

Small and good – I bought this bc i want my own hair dryer instead of using the hotel one when i go to travel as I always think that those are my hair!!!! This is small which is easy to store and it is also really easy to use, the temperature is a little bit hot bit it’s ok for me

Great budget travel hair dryer – This is a great bargain at $10 from Kmart. Not as compact as some travel hair dryers on the market, but definitely a compact size with a handy fold down handle. Sleek & stylish black appearance with a matte soft touch finish & 2 speed settings. Can be used with or without the airflow concentrating attachment. So far it works as it is meant to.

Surprisingly good! – Who would thing a $12 hair dryer from Kmart could be so good? I bought this when my old faithful hairdryer died but it was only meant as a temporary solution. I am still using over a year later as it's such a little winner! I can easily stash it away in my bag and take it to work or travelling and the handle can fold flat Air output is really impressive for its size. It a very good little product.

Good price and it works! – Good hair dryer! It has a good size, specially for traveling, since it folds and offers two different speeds, which help controlling the hair making. Nothing special in therms of design, but I like it.

Economical item – Needed a small cheap hair dryer temporarily to use immediately while I could invest in a more expensive one later. It does the job alright albeit a little slower, but for its price I'm overall happy with it.

Convenient little hair dryer – I needed a compact and reliable hair dryers for travels and this one is very good. With multi voltage setting and a foldable arm, the Kmart Travel Hair Dryer does the job. I’ve use it in New York and then in Bali and is always good to carry such a small device just in case.

Review – This is it. This is a perfect hair dryer for traveler. Handy and it doesn’t take much space. More important it’s very cheap. If your luggage is full. Don’t worry about it. You can buy another new one for less than $10.00. What else you need. It’s such a good bargain.

good and cheap – This is really good products. This is small and easy to be put into a bag or case. A little bit noise and slow dryer. But consider the price, this is really good.
