Hi! I've been coveting a dyson airwrap for the past few years and am finally making the order. I have pin straight and thin asian hair.

I'm looking at 2 different items:

1. Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler Complete Long for $479 from Costco

2. Dyson Airwrap multi-styler and drayer straight + wavy $400 from Dyson direct. I also have 8% cashback making it ~$368.00

So far the differences I see are:

• Price (Dyson wins, $100 cheaper)

• Color (Don't really care about color)

• Different free gifts (essentially travel case & diffuser vs hairbrush and hairclips, don't really mind either)

• Costco has such a good return policy if things break, I've heard iffy things about Dyson's

• Dyson's sales rep really pushed their own site obvi because it is "newer technology and uses coanda airflow"

I'd love to know if any of you know what the differences are and which one you'd decide to get!

I’m sure you all see a million posts about choosing the best option on where to purchase, Shark vs Dyson, but had some questions and want opinions before I make a decision.

I recently purchased the Shark Flexstyle at Costco on sale at $229.99. I like it, but it is very loud and I have found the parts get very wobbly and loose, just after first use. They’re secure and click into place but I’m not so sure this is a normal thing. I also find it tears at my damp hair a bit and maybe that is contributing to tension on the brushes and causing it to become wobbly. I returned it and bought a new one. Same thing happened. I like the idea of styling my hair with a product like this, but now I’m wondering if I should spend the extra money and get the Airwrap instead.

I heard they’re pretty comparable, just that the Shark is more affordable. I see the Dyson Airwrap Complete Long is on sale now at Costco for $479.99. It’s not the color I necessarily wanted (I wanted the Prussian blue color but it really isn’t that big of a deal that would prevent me from purchasing) and it’s not the newest technology, but to those of you who have used both products, which do you recommend? Costco has a great return policy so I’m thinking maybe I should purchase it while it’s on sale, try it, and return whichever one I don’t like.

I’m not crazy about spending an extra $250+ but I will if it’s worth it. I want this to be an investment. I plan on using it a few times a week. What are everyone’s opinions? I don’t anticipate the air wrap going down in price anymore than it already is. Dyson I know is having a BF sale on their website but buying at Costco is still cheaper and comes with the travel bag and diffuser, so that’s my best option.
