How does this compare to the Peet dryer?

Favorably. They both do the job. I have three different versions: 1) Peet, 2) Cabela's (Peet), and 3) MaxxDry. Cosmetic differences and cord length other than that functionally similar and interchangeable tubes.

This thing sucked bad. Broke in less than 2 months. Stay away from convection dyers.

The MaxxDry SD Boot, Shoe, and Glove Dryer works great. I bought one for our household and one for my parents household. I have no experience with the peet dryer, but found the price on the MaxxDry is great.

I believe you are right and the difference is in LED bulb. We have this one and can't be happier. Its really quiet and efficient! No more moisture in my husband's bathroom!

I agree with you on how and where they are made, they just aren't as good as the older dryers. Mine does not put out the air flow that an older one did either. Apparently they are made quit a bit differently now. I do not have an answer as to why, as mine is dong the same thing. I don't care for the soft brush either.. Sorry, I am no help

heat gun does not throw out as much air as a blow dryer does. You have more controal with a heat gun

I have been using the Torino for over 6 years now and it is my absolute favorite hair dryer. The main difference between the Torino and Portofino is size. While both dryers have the same wattage, the Torino is a compact dryer with the drying speed and blower strength of a full sized professional dryer. This is perfect if you travel a lot and have thicker, hard to dry, curly hair like me. I can't get by with those pitiful hotel dryers without looking like a frizz ball so for me the Torino has been the best of both worlds. Also, I'd like to mention that the compact size is helpful for me because I have arthritis and compact size Torino is light weight and easy to handle. Good luck!

Just about any you want - low to high. I have two, one at both of my homes. I love it. Perfect for my lifestyle. Same as a salon dryer.

Hi, For an at home dryer, I am enjoying using it. Its like sitting in a beauty parlor, you can sit back an enjoy reading a book, while your hair dries. I would also say that it takes about the same amount of time.

It's just as good as those dryers. I use it with only one towel, to dry an entire car. It a great tool. Well worth the investment.

You must first read what the advantages are for an infrared dryer vs. a regular dryer, and the differences it makes in caring for your hair. I've owned many dryers in the past and I've found the difference in the two, is the $125 dryer works exactly as advertised and I'm well pleased with it's performance.

i always had same problem. this is the best, about 6 inches. smallest i've ever seen, plus the cool shot button is in front and easy to use. the 2 speeds are just right and it's light. best dryer i ever had so i bought 3 in case they quit making. you'll love it

No, it's bigger and heavier...but still an excellent dryer. Dries faster than any drier I have used, therefore I can use it on a Low Setting and cause less damage to my hair.

I personally can't compare it to the older version, but would say during my use over a weekend at the beach where it got wet and had some sunny time and shady time on the laundry line it had a lot of potential to stink but never really did. I washed the towels pretty quickly when we got home as well. Just take care of it! I machine wash on a gentler cycle and then have done the dryer with no heat (dries quickly with a small load) and it's holding up well so far.

Yes it is the same as well as the features its just the company name that is different but its the same product. It works very well I have the avanti and I have no problems with it,to avoid over heating don't pack the dryer with a lot of clothes in it also clean the filter after each use.its a good product and works just like any dryer ,

I have only is this dryer once which I own. I have never seen anything like that come out of this dryer. It's very powerful. dried my golden doodle with in a half hour. There's two settings. he was fluffed up nice. I really like this dryer a lot. And no I have never seen any spark or embers come out of it.
