Having already re - mastermind vacuum cleaners and fans from the undercoat up , Dyson has now apply its expertise at moving melody to an appliance you probably use every day , and despise doing so . The Dyson Supersonic wants to replace the hair drier in your lav with a light , safer , and quieter alternative .

The starting point for the redesign , and the biggest advance Dyson has made to fuzz dryer , is with the sizing of their motor . The monster on the left , which is what you ’ll notice in most high - end hairsbreadth dryers , has been replaced with the company ’s new V9 digital motor pictured on the right , which is about as large as a D - sized barrage .

Not only does the Modern V9 motor make the Dyson Supersonic lighter and more efficient , it ’s also been specifically organize to change over some of the high - slope sound hair dryers often produce to an even higher frequency beyond the range of human auditory modality . The motor ’s compendious invention also means it can be integrated into the Supersonic ’s handle , instead of the head , completely changing its exercising weight distribution , and making it more comfortable to hold and employ for prolonged menstruum .

To ensure the small-scale V9 motor still produces the same acute blast of air as other hair drier , the Supersonic adopt the air multiplier techniques used by Dyson ’s sports fan , heaters , and air purifiers . The downpour of line from the motor is amplified by air sucked through the Supersonic ’s empty head for increased power . And because the motor itself is draw in air through a filter on the bottom of the gadget ’s handle , there ’s less risk of the user ’s hair accidentally getting nigh and sucked into it .

Dyson has also made the Supersonic safer to practice in other ways , particularly when it come to heating system . To prevent burn , sensors monitor the heating component in the head 20 times every second to ensure a constant temperature is maintained — mechanically shutting the unit down should it get too hot . And the Supersonic ’s add-on , let in a concentrator , smoothing beak , and diffuser , bond using a charismatic mob , and have double - walled plan keeping the heat on the interior so the exterior remain coolheaded to the touch and easy to swap out .

As for pricing ? That ’s where the Dyson Supersonic might be less likeable for some . The company ’s products have always come with steep price tags , and the $ 400 ultrasonic — available hail September in the US — is no dissimilar . That being say , if over the years you ’ve had a few filthy run - ins with haircloth dryers leave you with battle scars and burn marks , you might already have your credit card at the ready .
