While Dyson’s hair tools are game-changers, they’re not exactly easy on the wallet. While there’s no shortage of brands on Amazon claiming to be “Dyson dupes,” one hair dryer has consistently earned praise for giving the pricey styling device a run for its money.

Though you lose a smidge of motor power in Laifen’s Swift models (the brushless motor operates at 110,000 rpm with a windspeed of 22m per second) compared to Dyson, they also sound slightly quieter at 59dB. For comparison, Dyson says its hair tools’ V9 motor operates at 77 decibels and spins at 110,000 rpm with an airflow of 13l/second. And at less than one pound, the Laifen hair dryers are great for traveling.

Similar to the Dyson Supersonic, Laifen’s hair dryer is equipped with a thermo-control microprocessor that monitors and adjusts the air temperature to ensure that your tresses aren’t exposed to and damaged by extreme heat, and it also delivers negative ions to keep your strands silky and frizz-free. The latest Swift model adjusts heat up to 100 times per second, while the Swift SE is half that amount. (Dyson says its heat sensor adjusts over 40 times per second.)

A three-color LED ring light indicator displays the temperature settings from cold to up to 80 (from cold, warm to hot air). The Laifen devices also have a removable magnetic filter that keeps hair from getting tangled in the air duct.

But don’t just take our word for it: Recent buyers also compared Laifen’s hair dryer to their own experiences using Dyson.

“I love this blow dryer have been using it for a while now in the salon setting due to wanting to find an alternative to my Dyson that was comparable! Plus it’s purple and matches all my stuff,” writes reviewer Kristen.

Writes reviewer J. Willetts, “This dryer is amazing & just as good as a Dyson. Way cheaper than a Dyson, thankfully! My hair is curly and the diffuser works so well, my curls are beautiful for at least two days with minimal product needed in between. Don’t waste your money on the Dyson, get this!”
