I've got a Parlux (professional quality one like they have in salons). Link to a similar one here. Never missed a beat and really powerful too. I'd recommend it over a "home" one anyday.
HTH

I'd also recommend a salon hairdryer, I've had 2 of these now:

I had the first one for 7 years, it didn't break, I just fancied a pink one so I gave it to a friend and it's still going strong 3 years later.

Parlux are amazing, I wouldnt go back to a non professional one again

Yep, Parlux all the way. I've had mine at least 4 years and it's still going strong. Only dryer that gets my wavy/frizzy hair straight with nice volume. Mine was almost £100, but worth it over time.

Thanks for the suggestions

Think I will definitely get a professional one this time my current hairdryer (which is better than nothing) seems to have about as much oomph as if I was blowing the hair myself. Can't wait to dry it with something decent.
