Revlon RV 484 Review

Being described as heavy and bulky are actually some of the milder barbs thrown at the Revlon RV 484 Ion 1875 Watt Hair Dryer. Although some consumers are satisfied with this cheap hair dryer, scathing comments about sparking and shorting out, and singeing, frying, and otherwise damaging hair often appear in Revlon RV 484 reviews on Amazon. Consumers posting Revlon RV 484 reviews on the Target website report similar problems, ranging from hair that gets fried to hands that get burned, from smoking shortly after purchase to a concentrator that melted. Several users assert the Revlon RV 484 is a safety hazard.

On paper, the Revlon RV 484 Ion 1875 Watt Hair Dryer seems like a good, affordable choice. It has ionic technology that is said to reduce frizz, there are three heat settings, two speed settings, and a cold shot option. It even comes with a concentrator and a diffuser, and it's all wrapped up in a very cheap price.

However, Revlon RV 484 reviews by consumers that question its safety, as well as its performance, give us pause. Although more recent reviews seem less negative, we think you should pass this one by despite its appealing price and reputable brand name.
