SHELANDY Groomer Partner Pet Hair Force Dryer Dog Grooming Blower with Heater (Blue)

I got this dryer today and used it after my dog's bath. It was pretty easy to put the hose together, although I think the instructions could have been a bit more detailed (it's just a series of images). It also comes with an extra filter, but I didn't know that until I opened the back to put the included filter in and saw there already was one inserted.For anyone confused, take the little ridge ring that's on the hose off (it slides right off), stick that side of the hose onto the cylinder section sticking out of the vacuum, then put the ring back onto the hose in the same spot. The ring has little plastic clips that "lock in" to the ridge on the vacuum's cylinder piece, so the hose can't fly off. For the filter, just unscrew the little metal knob on the backend of the vacuum and pop the filter in or out.The vacuum had a slight plastic smell for the first minute of using it, but it went away quickly. I noticed the hose felt mildly hot while using it without the heat turned on, but the actual airflow wasn't hot (I kept checking throughout drying my dog to make sure). It took a little while to dry her, and the airflow never got any hotter, which was what I was hoping for.My dog is very anxious about anything new, so she was pretty scared at first by the loud noise and the power of the airflow. It's quite a bit louder and stronger than a standard human blowdryer, especially with an attachment on the hose. I did little short "trials" with her at first and also blew it on myself a few times to show her it wasn't scary or painful. She's very praise-driven, so I made a huge happy deal about her letting me blow it on her for a few seconds at a time. After a few tries, she calmed down and let me blow it at her for a full dry session; she almost seemed to enjoy it once she realized it was drying her (she doesn't enjoy being wet).The hose is luckily long because she wanted to sit across the bathroom from me the majority of the dry session, so I could still get at her easily. The air is fairly strong with an attachment on the lowest setting, but I slowly ramped it up to about 1/4 power as I went. I'm not sure you'd want to ever use the max airflow on a dog, and you should be careful with the power level if you're drying at a closer range to your dog than I was; my dog is double-coated, and 1/4 power easily parted her fur down to her skin from a couple feet away and could blow on my skin hard enough to make a "dent" at about 6 inches away. It was definitely much faster than a normal blowdryer, but it wasn't quite as fast as I was hoping for. I think using the heat would shorten the time quite a bit, but she gets hot easily, so I didn't try it out this time.She always has a bunch of big cowlicks on her back. I was hoping this dryer would be able to straighten those out, but her fur really wants to dry wavy there, so it unfortunately was already drying all wonky before she let me do her back. I'm hoping she'll let me use the comb-like attachment after a few more baths to see if that helps finally smooth out the fur there.

I just bought and used this on my white Pomeranian. She has an incredibly dense coat, even denser than my previous Eskies who blew hair everywhere. Her hair tends to matt rather than loosen so I really needed something to help me after bathing her. (And why is that WHITE dogs really love being outside in the dust and dirt?) So she needs constant brushing and bathing. The problem is she absolutely hates vacuum cleaners to the point of attacking and "biting" them. I was unsure whether this would work out, but much to my relief she was so distracted by the air flow on her skin that she wasn't barking. I found the blower rather quiet for such a powerful machine. The controls are super easy to use. I only blew her for 10 minutes (all she could stand) so she was still damp, but much better than the usual toweling and shaking dry. I learned quite a bit by using this for the first time and will be able to manage it better going forward, the main thing being to find a way to cover her ears and eyes to avoid the wind on her face.....

This thing was Godly saves me for my way to go and get my husky a wash for 20 bucks I bought big deferminator shampoo and conditioner gallons and I am set for years and I got it for such a cheap price it was amazing I think I bought it for $60 it is a steal it's got Heating and really good drying power and plugs into regular Outlets multiple heads and all I do is towel dry my dog first and then one she's like 50% or 60% dry I use the blower however I've done it without a towel and she comes out to be 90%, dry and my dog is a huge fluffy husky but for regular dogs no problem

This device BLOWS! I was a bit hesitant at first. We have two Huskies that only shed twice a year—six months at a time. I was afraid the noise from the unit would prohibitively decrease its practicality. I was wrong! The most timid Husky just stood there and actually enjoyed it! I used a narrow nozzle, the comb nozzle, and the hand brush/glove. The glove and the straight blower seemed to remove the most hair. The glove started to split along the seam immediately, so I may invest in a better pair of deshedding gloves in the future. There is probably no good place to defur a Husky. I chose the garage, and there was hair everywhere! I had to use a leaf blower to get it all out into the driveway. It's still stuck to all the landscaping and lawn. But the amount of hair blown out was incredible. Wish I had taken pictures or a video. Oh, and I was also covered with hair, but I used the same blower to defur me. A mask might be helpful as I had a mouthful.Some things to watch. The back-end filter intake can quite easily get clogged with hair. Beware. Also, the unit blows really hot air, not enough to be an issue, even with the heater off. It ebbed and flowed from cool to hot and back again. The hose is very flexible and stretchy, which is good. Seems well-built with a robust power cord. I will definitely keep it! Noise was a non-issue for my pups.

This pet dryer is amazing! Professional quality dryer for my noodle! Groomer quality results at home. The forced air allows for quick drying. It has adjustable air flow and option for heat on or off. Multiple attachments for specific needs. The cord is long and the hose attachment is perfectly sized. I have recommended this dryer to everyone, especially strangers who have been asking where I get my dog groomed. I tell them at home with my new pet dryer.
