    #4 I'd be sure to not set it on reverse. It would be pretty awkward--not to mention painful--to walk into the ER with one of those attached.

    #1, that is not true. You could use it, you just couldn't hold on to it.

    Hmmm, this thing would pull over 15 amps when in use; some peoples' homes only have 15 amp breakers on their socket circuits, so I would worry about popping them unintentionally.

    I'd get the ionic version instead.

    Reasonable point #8 made, even a couple extra amps used compared to a 1500W hairdryer can be a problem. Year ago I recall having to remember not to run the hairdryer at the same time the microwave was running in my dorm room or it'd always trip the breaker.

    However, I think they rate wattage on these based on the initial power which decreases right away as the metal heating element heats up increasing resistance, so there is a fair chance you could run this on a 15A circuit if nothing else of significance was also being powered by same circuit, providing the wiring and outlet were in decent shape.

    Is it a deal though? You used to be able to pick up a Conair hairdryer pretty much equivalent except for the accent panel for $25 any day of the week, though possibly the prices have gone up, mine has lasted long enough I haven't priced one recently.
