Technology Dyson has slashed the price of one of its most sought-after beauty gadgets, offering customers a £100 saving on the RRP. Interestingly, this price reduction makes it cheaper to buy a new device than a refurbished one.
The Dyson Supersonic hairdryer, normally priced at £329.99, is now available for just £229.99 for a limited period. This is cheaper than the Dyson Outlet on eBay, where refurbished tools cost £279.99.
Even with the eBay discount code DYSONAUG15, the refurbished model would still cost £237.99, making the Dyson deal quite remarkable.

Both the Onyx Black/Gold and the Bright Nickel/Clear Copper colors are included in this offer, making the device even cheaper than it was on Black Friday 2023, when it cost £299.99 at most retailers.
What sets this unit apart from competitors like the Shark is its small but powerful Dyson V9 digital motor, which is six times faster on average than other hair dryers. Together with Air Multiplier technology, it generates a high-pressure and high-speed jet of controlled air, ensuring fast drying and precision styling, the Mirror reports.
Unlike some of its competitors, the Dyson Supersonic blow dryer measures the air temperature over 40 times a second and regulates the heat to prevent extreme heat damage, thus protecting your hair’s shine. It also comes with magnetic styling attachments for easy mounting and rotation during styling, including a Flyaway smoothing attachment, Dyson Styling concentrator, diffuser, gentle air attachment and wide tooth comb.
It’s lightweight so it won’t hurt your wrist, powerful – meaning it doesn’t take long to dry my locks – and has a sleek design with some very handy features like adjustable temperature and speeds. Since it’s the tool I use most regularly, I don’t find myself hiding it in its drawer and forgetting about it for weeks on end, which ensures I’m actually getting value for money.
And at less than £229.99, if you used it every day for a year, it would have cost you around 63p a day to use it – and it will last a LOT longer.
The gadget has been rated 4.7 stars on the Boots website – where it’s still full price – with over 7,500 five-star reviews. One customer raved: “Life changing. I bought this as a gift for my fiancee, she claims it has changed her life as it now takes 10 minutes out of the shower to dry her hair and straighten it, it used to take 45 minutes.”
Another said: “For the past five years I have used the Dyson Supersonic while staying at various five star hotels and it felt amazing. Recently I finally invested in the Dyson Supersonic and I can confirm this item has been a total godsend.”
A third shared: “I bought this last month and can honestly say I’d be lost without it. It’s powerful, so quiet and using the accessories gives great results. I feel safer using it on my daughter too because i know her hair will be more protected It dries quickly and the smoothing nozzle is a life saver Thanks Dyson.
However, some feel there are too many accessories for the dryer, with one writing: “Heavier than I expected. Dries hair quickly, personally I would prefer to have the accessories as ‘extras’ when buying as I really don’t need the mall. “
While others bemoaned the costs, with one remark: “It’s a nice product, but just a hair dryer at the end of the day. A bit overpriced IMHO.” Alternative to Dyon and Shark, GHD blow dryers that come with a free gift when you buy.
