1875W sounds like marketing. That happens to be 15A times 125V. You aren't likely to have 125V, so you probably will not get 1875W (see if it has a voltage rating--the wattage is valid only at that voltage). An appliance that draws over 15A (with a 15A plug) is against code. If another dryer is rated 1650W at 110V it will probably be about the same.

The highere the wattage, the stronger the dryer. Check supply stores such as "Sallys Beauty Supply". You can get one there at a decent price. Get a commerical type and your hair will appreciate it.
You will spend less time getting ready and more time putting on makeup, etc..

1875 watts is a very good blow dryer.
