What is it and there? The tap changers are on the inside and are initially a little stiff. The switch lock securely with clearly audible result. The stage control with temperature control function reliably. The fan is strong and shorter hair dries within minutes. The volume varies depending on the selected fan speed, but within reasonable limits. Ionization also seems to work (at least in my hair). The button for the cold setting is good to use and makes almost cold air (30 ° C). The only drawback is that the button has to be pressed permanently and can not be latched.
Seen from the outside: The top of the hair dryer and the shiny bottom / inside is brushed black. A coppery-shiny stripe separates the two sides. The optics are therefore kept rather purist, anything goes well.
The included essays can be easily inserted into the provided ring. For diffuser I can not say anything, because due to my short hair exclusively the styling nozzle is used. This quickly leads and convincing to the desired result.
Conclusion:
With the date of this review of the Philips ThermoProtect Ionic costs ~ 35 Taler. This makes it more expensive than similar-looking devices of known drugstore chains, but does it not just hot air, but does have ambitions to professional league!
