Save $140: As of July 23, you can grab a refurbished Dyson Supersonic for $209.99 at Walmart, down from its usual price $349.99. This price cut saves you 40%.
Take it from someone who's tested it out: the Dyson Supersonic is a seriously luxurious hair dryer that's way too expensive to justify recommending to 90% of folks, especially when dupes exist.
However, when the price of the hair dryer gets slashed to just over half of what it would cost at its full price brand-new (basically, when it falls to the price of a normal hair dryer) I can give it a more wholehearted recommendation. As of July 23, if you're willing to buy refurbished, you can get the Dyson Supersonic at Walmart for just $209.99, placing it firmly at one of the lower prices we've seen it.
Typically, even buying a refurbished model will run you $349.99 (as compared to a new model's $429.99). At the time of writing, Dyson is also offering a deeply discounted refurbished model directly on their website, but for $10 more at $219.99.
So what do you get with the Dyson Supersonic? For starters, the dryer comes with five magnetic styling attachments, including a wide tooth comb, diffuser, styling concentrator, and gentle air attachment. Like I wrote in my review, it's hard to imagine someone who will use all these attachments, but this sale price makes that less of an issue.
As for how it performs, you'll have your pick between three speed and four heat settings. Dyson claims that the dryer never exceeds 212 degrees and helps prevent extreme heat damage. While I couldn't independently verify these specific claims when I tested the dryer, I can say that my hair dried quicker, shinier, and with less frizz than other dryers. It's also marginally quieter and more lightweight than other options, making hair drying generally feel like a more luxe experience.
Though the difference wasn't drastic enough for me to recommend it when it was twice the price of other dryers, it's much easier when it's on sale when it's in the same range. If you've been waiting for your moment to grab the Dyson Supersonic, now is an excellent time.
