Mascom International stocks the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer at KSh 1,800, brand new and sealed, as part of the Poree dryer range we carry in Nairobi CBD. Poree, a personal-care brand linked to China's Flyco group, makes hair dryers, electric shavers and sonic toothbrushes. The UK at the end of the model code marks the UK-plug version, so the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer goes straight into a Kenyan wall socket. Its full specifications, including colour and controls, are not confirmed for this page, so we invite you to see it at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, before buying.
Built for buyers across Kenya who want a working dryer without paying salon prices, the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer sits at the same KSh 1,800 as the classic Poree PH1622UK. Wash day is the real test. Natural hair, braids and locs that stay damp for hours feel heavy and can smell musty, and a fresh weave needs its leave-out dried before you head out. Gym-goers in Westlands and early commuters from estates like Kasarani and Rongai rarely have time to wait. A dryer at home cuts that waiting time and keeps your morning on schedule.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that post long feature lists copied from elsewhere, Mascom International lists only what we can confirm about the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer. Buyers throughout Kenya report that holding a dryer settles their questions faster than any photo. Send us a WhatsApp message for current pictures of the unit, or walk in and switch it on at the counter. If you would rather have a high-speed design, the Poree PH1650UK costs KSh 3,000. Either way, the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer ships pay-on-arrival to all 47 counties, so you check it before you pay.
Common Questions About the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer
What is the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer price in Kenya?
The Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer is KSh 1,800 brand new and sealed at Mascom International, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. That figure includes the dryer, a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects, and pay-on-arrival delivery, so you check the box before paying by M-Pesa or cash. It matches the price of the Poree PH1622UK and the Poree PH165UK, while the high-speed Poree PH1650UK costs KSh 3,000, which is KSh 1,200 more. Delivery within Nairobi and its environs is same day.
What are the confirmed specifications of the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer?
For the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer, Mascom International confirms the brand, the model code, the UK 3-pin plug and its brand new, sealed condition. We have not confirmed its colour, shape, heat settings or power rating for this page, so we do not list them. Rather than guess, we would sooner show you the real unit. Message us on WhatsApp for photos of the box and dryer, or ask our staff in Nairobi CBD to show you one so you can read the rating label yourself.
Is the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer the same as the Poree PH1622UK?
No, the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer and the Poree PH1622UK are separate models with different codes, though both cost KSh 1,800 at Mascom International. The PH1622UK is confirmed as a compact white classic dryer with a rear fan grille, a side switch on the handle and a cord tie. Those details are not confirmed for the PH162UK, so do not assume they match. If you want those exact features today, choose the PH1622UK; if you like the PH162UK in person, it is an equal-price alternative.
Does the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer need an adapter in Kenya?
No adapter is needed, because the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer is the UK-plug version and fits standard Kenyan three-pin wall sockets. Plugging in directly avoids the loose contact and heat that cheap travel adapters often cause. During KPLC blackouts, pull the plug out and wait until power is steady before drying again, since surges often come when supply returns. The Amaya APS-10 Socket Protector, KSh 1,200 at Mascom International, can sit between the socket and the dryer for added protection.
Can I see the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer before I buy it?
Yes, you can inspect the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Monday through Saturday. Ask our staff to show you a unit, plug it in and let you hold it, feel the airflow and check the controls. If you cannot reach Nairobi CBD, ask on WhatsApp for photos and a short video of the unit. With pay-on-arrival delivery, you can also look it over at your door before any money changes hands.
Will the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer work for wash day on natural hair and locs?
The Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer can speed up wash day on natural hair, braids and locs when you use it carefully. Towel-blot first, then dry in sections, keeping the dryer moving and about a hand's width from the scalp. Locs need drying right through to the core, so give them extra time at a gentle distance rather than holding the dryer close. Because the heat settings of this model are not confirmed here, ask us to demonstrate it if your hair is fine or heat-sensitive.
Is it safe to use the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer in a bathroom?
Use the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer in a dry room, never over a running tap or beside a filled bath, because water and mains electricity are a dangerous mix. In many Nairobi apartments the only socket near a mirror is outside the bathroom, and that is the safer place to dry. Keep your hands dry when plugging in, never leave the dryer running on a bed or sofa, and keep its air intake clear of lint so the motor does not overheat.
Who should buy the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer, and who should skip it?
The Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer suits buyers who want a basic KSh 1,800 dryer and are happy to see it in store or on WhatsApp first. It makes sense for students, shared households and anyone replacing a broken dryer. Skip it if you need confirmed specifications today: the Poree PH1622UK has its design confirmed at the same price. Salon owners and stylists who dry hair all day should look at a high-speed model such as the Poree PH1650UK or the Amaya AHD-300.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- Hand-held mains hair dryer — speeds up drying after a wash, so hair is ready before work, class or church.
- Poree dryer range — one of several Poree dryers at Mascom International, priced alongside the classic PH1622UK at KSh 1,800.
- Model code PH162UK — printed on the unit and box; check it matches before paying so you receive the exact model.
- Design details to confirm — colour, shape and switch layout are not confirmed here, so ask us for photos on WhatsApp.
- Everyday home use — suits daily drying for one person or a small household rather than continuous salon work.
- Humid-town help — in Mombasa, Kisumu and Lamu, hair air-dries slowly, so a dryer shortens the wait after washing.
Compatibility with Kenyan Power
- UK 3-pin plug — the UK suffix in PH162UK marks this plug, which fits standard Kenyan wall sockets.
- No adapter required — a direct fit avoids the wobbly contact and hot pins that travel adapters often cause.
- Mains powered — runs from a wall socket, so there is no battery to charge before a busy morning.
- KPLC blackout routine — unplug during outages and wait for steady supply, since surges often arrive when power returns.
- Amaya APS-10 Socket Protector — sold for KSh 1,200, it sits between the socket and the dryer to buffer surges.
- Wall socket first — plug into the wall rather than an extension already carrying an iron, kettle or heater.
Build and Care
- Air intake upkeep — every dryer pulls air in, so brush lint off the intake every week or two to keep airflow steady.
- Cool-down before storage — let the dryer cool for a few minutes before putting it in a drawer or bag.
- Cord care — coil the cable loosely and avoid bending it sharply at the point where it meets the dryer.
- Dry storage — keep it away from bathroom steam and damp cupboards, which shorten the life of any electrical appliance.
- Safe resting place — set it on a hard table, never on a bed, sofa or cushion that can block the air intake.
- Warning signs — a burning smell, sparks or a rattling motor mean stop at once and bring it to our desk.
Inclusions
- The dryer — the box holds the dryer itself, and no attachments are listed for this model.
- Factory seal — brand new and never used; break the seal in our shop or on delivery, then check the code.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects under normal use, with claims at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Pay-on-arrival — inspect the box at your door and pay by M-Pesa or cash only when you are satisfied.
- Label reading on WhatsApp — our staff can read the rating label for you and send photos before you commit.
- Receipt and warranty record — keep the Mascom International receipt, since it shows the purchase date for any claim.
Choosing Within the Poree Range
- Same-price alternative — the Poree PH1622UK, KSh 1,800, is confirmed as a compact white classic dryer with a rear grille.
- High-speed alternative — the Poree PH1650UK, KSh 3,000, uses a high-speed design with the motor in the handle.
- In-store comparison — our staff can set the PH162UK beside other Poree dryers so you choose by feel and weight.
- Daily cost — at KSh 1,800, the dryer works out to about KSh 10 a day across its 6-month warranty period.
- Gift option — a sealed box makes a practical present for a student heading to campus or a couple setting up home.
- Pay your way — settle by M-Pesa, Lipa na M-Pesa till or cash, in store or at your door on delivery.
Package Contents
Inside the box is the Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer itself. No nozzles, diffusers, combs or storage bags are listed for this model, and we do not promise anything beyond the dryer. Because the plug is the UK 3-pin type, you do not need to budget for an adapter. If you would like surge protection, the Amaya APS-10 Socket Protector is a separate KSh 1,200 purchase at Mascom International. Ask us on WhatsApp for a photo of the box contents before ordering.
Warranty
The Poree PH162UK Hair Dryer ships with a 6-month warranty through Mascom International, covering manufacturing defects under normal use. Should a factory fault stop the dryer working within six months, bring it to our Nairobi CBD service desk, where we handle every claim.
