CONCLUSION

   Laifen is not really a company i was aware of, not until they reached out that is so typically i was a bit sceptical about their products at first. So, let’s start with airflow levels. The Swift & Swift Special produce extremely good amounts of airflow and even though I can’t say that they dried my hair faster compared to my Bellissima hair dryer thanks to their size and weight they are far easier to use. Funny thing is that if you place the Swift and Swift Special down, they will start moving around on their own exactly because of their size, weight and great airflow levels. As for noise levels well it’s clear that Laifen (just like everyone else) offers an official number (59dBA) recorded from at least 1 meter away and that’s why there’s such a large difference with my own. Still, it’s clear that both the Swift and Swift Special are roughly 4-5dBA quieter compared to my Bellissima hair dryer so no complaints here either. The somewhat large selection of colors is also something that will probably gain the attention of many potential buyers so kudos to Laifen for that (I am a bit surprised they left out pink and yellow however). Finally build quality is something I really can’t say much about. Both hair dryers are very lightweight so they may not seem extremely durable but during the 1+ month I’ve used them almost on a daily basis I had zero issues. On top of that the brushless motor used is not supposed to weigh much and has a projected lifespan of 1000 hours and as for the enclosures themselves being made by a flame retardant material is certainly a good thing.

   Currently the Swift and Swift Special hair dryers by Laifen are on sale for USD169.99 and USD189.99 respectively (directly from their online store) a price tag which at first may seem quite high to some (my readers can now use coupon NIKLF for 10% off). Still if you take a look at the competition things level out pretty quickly since Laifen is actually on the low end in regards to brushless hair dryers, especially of this particular type/design. Bottom line I don’t think there’s something other hair dryers can do better than the Laifen Swift and Swift Special (at least performance wise) and for that it gets the Golden Award.
