DHD-2400T

I have read many reviews of many different Pet Dryers, and this one was very highly rated with professional Pet Groomers, as a backup dryer. I have 4 English Goldendoodles, and wanted something that was #1 Safe, not too much heat and this only uses the heat from the motor, which is very minimal and mostly cool. #2 Reasonably Priced - much less that the top professional dryers. #3 Not a Cheap China Knockoff that has poor reviews, and if you find seven different named ones, all look alike with prices high and middle to entice you to buy their junk. Oh, and #4 I wanted a Pet Dryer from a company that sells replacement parts. Yes, Replacement Parts, because all of the AZ Pet Dryers do not sell replacement part, not even hoses which need to be replaced, if you use it any length of time. It seems that the China made thing are a once and done, and move to the next batch that looks completely different from the previous million and you are stuck with China Junk that you may end up buying another and, because it's cheap, made cheap, works like a cheap knock off, and in the long run was not as cheap as you thought it was, because you need to buy 2, 3, 4, more cheap, below grade, knock offs. Buy this one, they are made in US, and sell replacement parts, and work really well.

Really nice device. We have a german shepherd and we did not even know what a blow-out was until recently. I was brushing for an hour and still not getting all of the old fur out. This device gets it all out in about 5 minutes. The slow motor spin up helps a lot to not panic the dog the way a house vacuum does, noise-wise. Our dog is skittish of the vacuum, leaf blower, human hair dryer, but with this unit, it is much less, and once we have the air blowing on her, she doesn't move and I think she may even like it. I cup my other hand over an ear when doing her head or neck, and she seems fine with that too. Amazing how much fur this unit gets off of her! Her coat looks and feels beautiful after we're done. The unit is built well, feels sturdy, no flimsy buttons or controls, everything about it seems solid. The padded end of the hose is really nice for vibration and heat too. It is fairly expensive, more than I thought a dog blower might be (before researching) but after seeing it and using it, I am really glad I got it and will pay for itself quickly, compared to the groomer bill of a blow-out, plus all the time I was spending to brush her out for an hour each time, and the brush results still would not compare to the blow-out results!

I did a ton of research before buying and it really paid off. I’ve been grooming professionally for almost 50 yrs and I love the quiet performance of this dryer. I think the dogs appreciate it too since I can turn it way down to dry faces and ears and boost it up to do bodies. I almost never need to use at full speed. It’s wicked powerful. I also bought the stand to go with it and I’m literally blown away at the versatility and value. Powerful, quiet and economical. Even though there’s no heating element the two motors produce more than enough heat to help with even the heaviest wet coats. What could be better?

This is great dryer! I will update my review after using it for a longer period to include durability, but so far I'm pleasantly surprised. I upgraded from a Metrovac Airforce 4.0hp for double coats and currently groom 3-5 dogs regularly - Rough and Smooth Collies, an Australian Shepherd, and occasionally a friend's male golden retriever. It has cut my drying time reasonably for all dogs. Pros: The variable speed is great. If you have a stand, you can use it as a sort of "fluffer" and finisher while it's stationary, or blast it at max to get undercoat blown out. It is VERY good for deshedding and fully drying the collies' ridiculously thick feathering and manes (we don't trim our collies, they have full length, show dog conditioned coats). It's less noisy than my Metrovac even at full speed and should make a great puppy dryer on low when introducing our next pup to the groom room. I like the "twist and lock" feature on the nozzles and hose. My Metrovac is just "push in" and I've had nozzles pop off and hit the dog when it's not handled carefully. These lock in place and can't be pulled off without twisting them to unlock. It looks pretty. Call me vain, I like nice looking tools. Cons: It is relatively large and heavy. I have decided to keep my Metrovac for travel and show because it's much lighter (single motor). The plug doesn't have a grounding pin, it has the regular two prongs only. I found this odd for a high powered appliance I will be using on wet dogs, but my outlet is on a different circuit from the main house and high up enough to not matter. The hose is shorter than expected, and the plastic collar around it came broken. It doesn't affect the function of the dryer, but I will purchase the extended hose. The hose is heavy and gets HOT. It has a neoprene section for you to hold, but my skin got a red mark where the bare hose rested for a minute against my forearm. If you're drying multiple dogs, get a heat sleeve for your hose arm.

I have yet to use it but I only turned it up to half way & I can tell it has double the power than the ones I was using at the grooming salon I was working at. I’m a groomer of 3 years & I highly recommend this !! I never take the time to write reviews but I feel like this one deserves it..especially if you’re hesitant on the price like I was :)) Definitely worth the money !!

Excellent for medium dogs Salon quality

Muy buen producto, yo lo uso para estetica y tiene modulador de velocidad eso esta muy bueno

Muy buena calidad, excelente producto

La marca es muy conocida y es excelente, éste modelo en específico es de las que tiene mayor volumen de aire, velocidad y revoluciones por minuto, la uso para perros muy grandes y de pelo abundante y largo, me toma aproximadamente 20 minutos secarlos totalmente, hace mucho mucho ruido pero es normal debido a la gran potencia que tiene, si tu mascota es muy asustadiza no lo recomiendo, tiene tanta potencia que tienes que sostener la manguera antes de encenderla para que no empiece a serpentear, tuve una mala experiencia con la entrega, se le cayó el producto de gran altura o le colocaron algo muy pesado encima y llegó completamente rota y prácticamente destruida, pero me hicieron el reembolso y la volví a comprar y es excelente.

Es muy pronto para saber si es durable ya que la acabo de adquirir, pero secamos a un perro doble capa de pelo en 30 minutos y antes lo hacíamos en 50 minutos
