Silicone makes for an un-sturdy product [SEP] I had high hopes for this product because of the reviews, however I am disappointed. The product arrived dirty and dusty. It also looks like it was in used condition. That aside, I tested it out. The silicone is weak and really bendy. This lead to the diffuser collapsing during use. It would not stay extended long enough for me to dry a strand of hair. I had to constantly re-shape the diffuser and try and get it to stay up and in working order.
