Rank #7 in Best Hair Dryer 2026: 10 Ranked by Spec Sheet, Not Slogans
TRESemme Fast Dry 2000W Hair Dryer (9142TU)
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The TRESemme Fast Dry 2000W is a corded, black hair dryer listed at £14.97 on Amazon and ranked #7 in this guide, on the back of a 4.6 rating from 14,150 ratings. It is a compact model with 3 heat settings, 2 speed settings and a cool shot, and the specification table lists a concentrator nozzle and an information booklet as the included components.
Its own listing does not agree with itself on power. The title and the specification table both say 2000 watts; the first bullet says "Experience fast and easy drying with 2200W power". That is a 200-watt gap inside a single product page, and it is the reason this dryer sits where it does in the guide. The same table puts Item Weight at 498 g, and no bullet offers a competing weight figure to check it against — the bullets only say "lightweight and compact", with no number. The included-components row lists a concentrator nozzle and an information booklet, while the fourth bullet also claims a soft finger diffuser and a full-size Keratin Smooth Heat Protection Spray that the specification table never mentions. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from our own testing.
How those 14,150 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.6 stars.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Nice hair dryer not heavy at all great price”
Verified purchase“Used the hair dryer as soon as it arrived....my old one had gone into self-destruct this morning, after 10 years of service to the family and dog. Fast drying. Lightweight. Cool shot a vital addition. Hinged door at back for cleaning. Next day delivery (Prime). Reasonable price.Will it last 10 years? Probably because dog and family won't be allowed to use it!”

Is the TRESemme Fast Dry a 2000W or a 2200W hair dryer?

How heavy is the TRESemme Fast Dry?
