Other things to know: Pricey, and doesn’t make your hair look any different than cheaper options. Manufacturer refurbished. Two-year Allstate warranty via Dyson's Ebay storefront or 1-year Dyson warranty through Dyson's Walmart storefront. Doesn't match short-lived $207 deal we recently saw, but still a good value.
