Before I tell about the tribulations I’ve had with this straightener, I need to mention that I absolutely LOVE the design. The curved plates are awesome for giving volume at the roots and flipping my layers out or under. It makes (well, made) my thick, wavy, frizzy hair extremely straight and shiny, and the price is nice and low.
Though, I guess you get what you pay for when quality is concerned. The “ceramic technology” they spout on the package simply means the plates are ceramic *coated*, not solid ceramic. Fine with me, except about a month after I bought it, the coating was already wearing away on the plates! I only use it about three or four times a week, so it’s not like I was putting unusual stress on it. I’ve nonstop to use it for the last year and a half, though, and haven’t had any bonus tribulations until recently. There seems to be something incorrect with the heating mechanism now, since I went to use it the other day, and when I touched it to my hair, it literally sizzled and singed the section I had in it on contact! Now I have this hideous frizzy spot right next to my face that I am just praying will grow out quickly. I used it a couple times after that, testing on my ends before putting it through my hair (getting a haircut soon, so no huge loss if they singe), and have had the same thing happen about 25% of the time. I’ve since been wearing my hair in a ponytail and am shopping for a new flat iron (with SOLID ceramic plates!).
I don’t know if anyone else has had these issues, but it really does make me sad that mine started falling apart so ahead of schedule on, since the design really is fantastic. Too terrible

I had been by the Conair CS15TCS Professional Straight Styles Straightening Iron for a few years that I originally bought since it was inexpensive and worked honestly for seldom use on long hair.
Since my hair is small and I style it more precisely now it is imperative that the ends of my hair do not flip out and hang very straight, so I plotting I would try this after I borrowed my friend’s.
Well, it worked like a charm! Now I don’t have to spend as much time blow drying and styling my hair with a round brush since this straightener really does most of the work. (Now I only have to use the round brush and dryer for volume.)
Pros:
* Heats quickly
* Maintains temperature
* Simple to handle and grasp
* Long cord that swivels to reduce tangling
* Can be used on wet to dry hair
* Low cost; Brilliant value!
* Does what is says!
Cons:
* On the hotter settings (Levels 25-30), the plates are so hot that I am not able to grasp the unit nearer to the top for better control. But this is doubtless due to the design (the vents for use on wet hair release a lot of heat).
Some things to keep in mind:
This straightener was $25 and made in China, so I wouldn’t expect it to have the quality or life expectancy of a $150 straightener. I wouldn’t say it is “chintzy,” though.
For the price and the results, the value is brilliant!
Also, this unit gets very hot on the higher settings! So hot that it will burn some people’s hair, especially if it is thin, dry, or brittle. Of course, that is the price you pay for heat styling, so proper precautions should be taken (conditioners, heat protection lotions/serum, etc).

I have had no problem with this iron. I got it so that I could curl my ends straightforwardly and flip out the ends also. The flipping out has been hard for me to get the hang of but that’s doubtless me and not the iron’s flaw. But when I just want to quickly curl my hair under it does a quick and gorgeous job! When I use the wet/dry feature it’s just since my hair is damp and I don’t have the time to dry it 100% of the way. I don’t expect the iron to dry my hair but it DOES flatten and curl it even even as damp when I use that button. My hair comes out shiny and lovely in a flash with this iron. Not really any ripping or hurt at all. Of course I use a leave in conditioner/volumizer before I heat style my hair and I set it to a heat setting of “15″. Fantastic buy for a reasonable price, like the curve of the plates and even the red color and look of the appliance. I wouldn’t trade it in for a more expensive Chi or whatever even if I were rich!

I got this straightener over a year ago when I had long hair. I’ll admit I couldn’t map out how I was supposed to use it, so I place it on the shelf and forgot about it until recently when I cut my hair shorter. WOW! It’s incredible! I always dry my hair completely with a hair dryer before by my straightener, since I don’t want to hurt my hair. I just like the way it flips my hair under or out and it stays like that all day! I am getting another one just incase anything happens to mine! I LOVE IT!

I recently bought this product and it is a wonderful hair straightener. The straightening plates are 2″, which provides a better surface area and reduces the amount of time needed to complete your hair. At the same time, the plates are rounded and provide just the right amount of body to your hair as opposed to traditional flat straightening plates.
