The device is very nice and light so that it does not press or rub on the neck. The cord is wonderfully long, so you have room to move. It dries very well. My thick long hair need only 45 minutes on stage 1. Stage 1 is already very warm. I personally would be stage 2 too hot. I have to put in between times on cold even at 1. Then comes still tepid pleasant air. For Design Freaks: also the housing itself is a beautiful sight in the delicate golden hue. The hood is large enough that both the hair on the neck, and which are sufficiently covered on the face and allow to dry evenly.
