After 2 years of very light use, mine simply died for no reason. Has anyone else had this problem? (It was great, but far too expensive for this!)

Mine has been great since I bought I. I love it. I am sorry yours has died.

I have had absolutely no problems with mine. I can't imagine what happened to yours. I don't suppose there is any kind of warranty left on it? I'm sorry that you had trouble with yours. I think it is a great hair dryer.

This hair dryer has a 4 year warranty. Mine also stopped working and Babyliss send me a new one.

Deprnds on how long you have owned it. Call customer service. I threw mine away after the second one failed after 2 months. Overpriced piece of @&!"@$$!!?

I've owned two units...the first unit died after about 2.5 years and the other is on year three without any issues. Advice, don't turn up the temperature to it's highest setting....back it off and set it lower. The unit will last longer.

Yes, I did. Twice!!! I bought a unit, it overheated extremely quickly during light to moderate use. I contacted Sony, they sent a replacement. Same problem only worse. Sony techs asked me to test the unit and record my results, which I did (including video documentation.) Suffice it to say, unless Sony has done a major retooling of this model, it isn't a flash you can trust for more than the lightest of use.

Yes mine has done the same thing. Had it for 4 years if not 5 years maybe a little longer. But sure got my money out of it. Sad that I needed to replace it today and can't find a store that carries it locally. Target is the only place I have not checked but it's to far to go to right now. So will just make do today and probably order this one or the next model up from Amazon.

I had to send mine back after it was out of warranty. For $60 they refurbished it and sent it back. I too loved it while it worked, but it lasted less than a year after the refurb. I decided it wasn't worth sending back again and got a cheaper one at costco. It's really a shame these things aren't built better. It's like buying ready made garbage - and not even recyclable!

I have the older one , but it has died already . It might have 10 hours of use . I am going to try to send it back . So I can't recomend it anymore .

We have the same issue, but did nothing to cause it and it stopped working. It was cool for about a day! Expensive to die so quickly. (This was for my husband, and he was careful with it.)

Mine died after 3 years. Reciever and surround speakers still running, though. I almost always forgot to turn the sub off. I see it apparently doesn't pull much current, but I believe that this "constant on" had something to do with the failure. It's an electrical failure, simply won't turn on: it's dead. Replaced it with a Klipsch R sw10, a much better subwoofer.

Yes. Too bad they really need it! First unit died within 1 1/2 years. Purchased another and it died within 1 year. Won't EVER purchase a product from this manufacturer again! For the price, you'd think they could make a reputable product.

Mine stopped after 2 months. I didn't get the chance to try to get a replacement. Anyone know how I can go about this?

I have the same one and have had it for quite a while. I did not buy the warranty and it has worked perfectly.

Mine did the same thing prior to dying completely - if not too late you may want to return it (see my review).

I have had a unit for quite a few years. I thought my battery had died and replacements were expensive. Started looking at just getting a new unit. Then I put the battery back in and it has worked fine for what has now been a couple more years. Don't know what happened, might have been a connection problem????

I bought this last year and it worked great, until it mysteriously died about three months later. I haven't heard much about the player dying that quickly for others, but there is a chance of it happening.

Mine has died after about a year of continuous use....maybe a year and a half tops.

yep same problem here! it died after only 2 days of moderate use. Leapfrog were fairly unhelpful and wanted us to pay shipping charges. We decided to return the unit to Amazon and plumped for a replacement which arrived in good time. However, it was dead on arrival!!! We will be returning this one too. Maybe the 3rd time will be the charm....
