It can "breathe fire"! Be careful when buying it

Can you buy a hair dryer for 15 yuan?

Is it safe?

1. A comprehensive review of ten hair dryers, the results are amazing!

We randomly purchased 10 hair dryers priced between 15 and 50 yuan from several e-commerce platforms and had them tested by a testing agency. We were shocked by the hidden dangers in these seemingly “stylish and trendy” small appliances.

National standards require that during the test, the device should not emit flames, molten metal, or toxic or flammable gases in dangerous quantities, and the product casing should not deform to cause leakage.

As a result, 4 out of 10 hair dryers started to smoke and catch fire. One hair dryer started to emit thick smoke at the 30th second of the test and caught fire at the 45th second, quickly melting the plastic casing.

After disassembling the hair dryers, it was found that the hair dryers that burned in these tests did not have temperature control devices installed.

Industry insiders revealed that the overall cost of a hair dryer that cuts corners is less than 5 yuan, and such products may have many problems. A search on relevant websites found that the temperature control device of a hair dryer is only between 0.6 and 1.5 yuan, but for some companies, not installing a thermostat is an important profit point.

2. Fire Cases

When in use, the hair dryer instantly sprays fire

In March this year, a thrilling scene occurred in a resident's home in Shanwei, Guangdong. The woman was blow-drying her child's hair, and the hair dryer in her hand suddenly burst into sparks. The woman was so scared that she immediately let go and threw it away. Fortunately, the child who was blow-drying her child's hair was not injured.

In January this year, a fire broke out in a resident's home in Nanling County, Wuhu City, Anhui Province. It turned out that the baby wet the bed sheet, and the mother put a hair dryer on the bed to blow it, and then left to wash dishes in the kitchen. As a result, the fire started about 5 minutes later.

The hair dryer burned the house all night.

In December 2021, a resident in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, blew a hair dryer at the balcony water pipe all night to prevent the water pipe from freezing. The hair dryer malfunctioned and caught fire, igniting the accumulated debris, which in turn caused a fire. Fortunately, no casualties were caused.

In recent years, the size of hair dryers has become smaller and smaller.

The appearance is becoming more and more fashionable

But the hidden safety risks cannot be ignored

Remind you

When buying a hair dryer, you must choose

Qualified products from regular manufacturers

Prevent the hair dryer from becoming a "lighter"

Prevent accidents such as burns, electric shock, fire, etc.
