DYSON - STOP!!!!

fitfuninformed · ‎10-06-2010

I actually saw the presentation by the regular vendor hawking Dyson's "personal fan" on sale for $99. Yes, you heard right.

Have you ever heard of anything so ridiculous? What can their version of a portable personal fan POSSIBLY do toS warrant such a price tag?

Absolutely ridiculous.

Btw, I own the Dyson blow dryer which is great, as well as one of their higher end vacuums but come on!!!

I feel just the opposite, @fitfuninformed. I think spending hundreds of dollars on a blow dryer or hair styler, or vaccum cleaner, is absolutely ridiculous. I may not use it often but I do find value in this little fan and can envision occasions where I'd be glad to have it, even if only a few times over the summer. We were at Graceland last year and it was unbearably hot and humid as we waited in line at the mansion and as we walked around Memphis. I'll take it with me whenever we're going to be out and about during summer. I figured out how to order one thru the app so I could get $20 off today.

I've got this one. I use it for drying down my skincare when I'm in a rush but I could also use it outside as needed. As far as hair drying goes, I probably spent more on my diffuser than my dryer. My main requirements for a dryer was separate fan speed and temp controls and that it fit my diffuser.

I would have a hard time justifying paying that for a mini fan. There are some really nice personal fans out there and they don't cost that much.

I've moved on from Dyson vacuum cleaners. There are better options.

however, I love my hair dryer and space heater/ fan. I might consider this small fan. When I get hot, I'd do anything to feel more comfortable!

I'm someone who has a difficult time cooling down once I get hot, sweat will roll down my face & body like I'm standing under a shower head. I'd happily pay that much if it had decent running time & moved lots of air, needless to say I despise the summer heat. Expensive hairdryer, no. Expensive personal fan that works for me...yes, Yes, YES.

Amazon to the rescue...again. When I ordered the Dyson this morning it was a completely spontaneous purchase. I was just on Amazon and there are many options. I saw a rechargeable neck style that looks interesting. I'm canceling the Dyson.

I broke down and got a Dyson hairdryer a while back, and I love it. Yes, it's high priced because they hold a patent, and right now cn charge those prices. I will say I own 3 of the Dyson air purifier/heater/air conditioner. I coukdnt live without thise. All 3 are different as I have bought them over a 20 year period I think. The original is still going strong.
