Customer Review
READ THIS FIRST --- This unit, the model #33490 is HARDWIRED! The Andis model #33295 is the same unit with a plug. Those giving low rating because of this alone are not justified.
Over the years we have had a couple different Andis Wall Mounted units, including the #33700 with the bright green nightlight, and some other manufacturer models. We like the Andis 33295/33490 the best. In my wife's bath, they typically last 3 years of everyday use on long hair. I just replaced her Andis 33700 with the nightlight that we purchased in Jan 2007 with the Andis 33490 hardwired unit. My wife likes it without the nightlight. It was too bright. Prior to buying another Andis, I did try the Oster 76932 wall mounted dryer. My wife did not like it. It did not blow as strong and was much louder. After replacing hers, the Jerdon in my bathroom died. I also decide to purchase the Andis. Installation/Cosmetic caution - since mine is being installed of the wall to my left, the nozzle faced outward. No big deal, but cosmetically, I would have liked the nozzle to face the mirror. With the wall mounted units where the unit fits perpendicular to the wall, handedness is not an issue.
Installation of the hardwired unit requires some modification to the wall mounting bracket because the pre-punched holes do not correspond to cord position on the back of the unit. I simply drill a hole and installed a rubber grommet. I think even if you did decide to route the wire through one of the pre-punched holes, I would use a grommet to prevent the sharp edge hole on the wall bracket from damaging the wire and possible causing an electrical short. Additionally, you may decide to drill additional mounting holes in the bracket if you can mount it to a stud. The three mounting holes are triangular. So, if you hit a stud with one, you will not with the other two.
Another plus with the Andis units with a plug, is that the GFI (big square control with reset) is inside the unit, not outside on the cord. Also, the extra cord can be wrapped inside the unit so only the minimal amount is visible. This makes a much cleaner installation.
I wish I could find an industrial strength luxury wall mounted dryer that is build to last a lifetime. I have looked and cannot find one. The field is rather limited. In my opinion, this is the best of the bunch.
shoddy installation hardware - Linda - Hills of Vermont
We've just installed the Andis model 33490 hard wired hair dryer as a replacement unit. Since it hasn't been used yet we don't know how well it will hold up but we hope that the unit has better cratsmanship than the installation hardware that came with the unit. The mounting hardware is very shoddy; amazingly crappy materials.
