Vidal Sassoon Ion Select Turbo Hair Dryer

I've had this hairdryer for about 2 years, and today while using it, i heard a loud pop and sparks flew out of it right next to my head. Is there a recall on this? I threw out the box and receipt long ago so i'm sure there is no hope for me to return it.

I've had this dryer less than a year, and it has not even been used daily. It started fashing blue light sparks yesterday. I turned it off immediately. Looking for recall info...I won't use this but it was like 30.00 so waiting to find recall info. DO NOT USE!!

I had this product for almost a year and then all of sudden it started not working all the time. Then today while drying my hair I had sparks come out of the cord near the base of the dryer. Not SAFE!!!!!

Well I can't say too many bad things about this dryer. I bought it 3 years ago and it has been great. But, today it stopped working properly, then sparks came shooting out of the base where the cord attaches and burnt my hand. So, it went out with a bang! And an ouch.

i have burned my hair 3 x's with this model - because the heating element covered with a metal is too close to the end - notice there is zero space at the end of this model - please revise this and can i get a nozel thing for the end. jimbevp@gmail.com

The concentrator was a nice addition except it always fell off the hair dryer. Mine also broke after about a year.

it's not a bad dryer, U know, for its price of 2X bucks, I can't expect more on it.

AS USUAL, WHATEVER I HAVE PURCHASED AT A TARGET STORE IT SEEMS DOES NOT LAST. 1 COFFEE POT, 2 ESPRESSO MAKERS, 1-HEATING PAD..THEIR RETURN POLICY IS ANYTHING BUT CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTATED. THIS DRYER QUIT WORKING AFTER 2 MONTHS.

worked pretty good considering i have really really long and think hair. it only took me about a half hour to dry (which used to take me almost an hour) the only bad thing was, i didn't even have it for a year and it just broke on me out of nowhere.
