TechRadar Verdict
The Dreame Glory dryer offers impressive performance at a reasonable price.
The Cold setting is one of my favorites.
It offers a true cool blast, perfect for setting styles in place and reducing frizz.
Plus, its large size makes it trickier to store and travel with.
Even so, this is quieter than similarly priced models and remains comfortable to use.
In terms of value, the Dreame Glory offers great features for its price.
Despite minor quirks, the dryer delivers quick, effective drying with a smooth finish.
It’s predominantly sold in continental Europe and Asia-Pacific directly from theDreame websiteandAmazon.
Outside of Europe, the dryer only ships with the nozzle.
Depending on the region, the Glory dryer is then sold in white, and rose gold.
Meanwhile, the long, slim 10in / 25.5cm handle gives a good level of control.
This compact size and weight also means the Glory is easy to store, and easy to travel with.
Both the concentrator nozzle and diffuser click into place on the dryer with a satisfying magnetized system.
The attachments don’t get too hot during styling either, which adds to this ease-of-use.
As is the brown color.
The dryers body is cylindrical, with rounded edges.
The Hot/Cold Cycle Mode then cycles between hot and cold air as you style your hair.
Both are minor points but do detract from an otherwise good design.
All things considered, the Dreame Hair Glory ticks a lot of boxes in terms of style and substance.
It’s lightweight, user-friendly and its shape and controls are largely well thought-out.
There are a number of small flaws and things I’d change, but none of them are dealbreakers.
My preferred mode was the Hot/Cold Cycle on High speed.
Something I credit to the millions of negative ions the dryer claims to produce.
Elsewhere, the Cold mode worked like a dream.
On the Glory, however, the air actually felt cool almost instantly when using Cold mode.
My hair is naturally curly so becomes frizzy easily, especially in humid environments.
This rarely happened during the time I was reviewing the Dreame Glory.
The Cold mode also helped me set styles that weren’t even created using the dryer.
The blast of cool air worked like a charm, setting the style without leaving any frizz.
Similarly, the concentrator nozzle really shines literally.
The Cold shot helped to lock in styles that lasted and it’s a quiet machine.
This performance is impressive anyway, let alone when you factor in the price.
