If you are caring for a show coat or have a lot of dogs to groom, you should consider a forced air dryer. It blows the water off of the coat instead of using heat. It is much quicker and the coat is not damaged. It is very different from a traditional dryer and takes time to get used to it. When I am grooming for a show, I use a traditional dryer when the coat is almost dry to help straighten
There are some draw backs. They can loud and the air comes out with a lot of force. The air can be regulated on the one that I have and it is not too loud. It is made by Magnum Force. Here is the link for one sold by Petedge. PetEdge: Metro Air Force 220 Volt Dryer |
Actually I don't think you are that much of the minority. I've been reading reviews on various sites and I'm finding alot of complaints in regards to the stand. I've been reading that it's flimsy and something wears down quickly and the dryer doesn't stand up! It figures since the dryer is such a great price!
I will have to check out the stand you mentioned with Petedge, the idea of having the dryer in a stand is really what we were after.
We don't show, we just have two Yorkies that we are going to start grooming at home! They aren't in show coats.
Thanks for the input and the stand info!
