Ghd 00235 Classic Styler, 1 Inch

 (46 customer reviews)

Ordered this item to see if I'd get a real one, but the one I received was counterfeit. It was made in China and didn't have any of the information to register it. Pay the extra $40 and get it from Sephora, that way you know it's real and the warranty will be valid, that's where I'm headed! (even if you can register it, ghd will not honor the warranty since it was purchased on Amazon)

I had some concern that this iron was counterfeit. I had purchased knockoff CHI irons (unbeknownst to me) on this site before. Fortunately, as I found, GHD has a verification tool on their site. Take the time to register your iron there to make sure it's not a fake [...] As far as the iron itself, it is a sturdy, quality iron that heats up lightning fast. It even has a beep to let you know it's ready to go. I especially love the 30 minute, automatic shut-off feature, a must for forgetful people like me ;)

After reading all the cautionary tales about fakes I ordered this gift for my wife directly from Amazon to avoid the problem of unscrupulous sellers. To our dismay the item Amazon shipped us appears to be a counterfeit since we can't register it on ghd's site. Also, the box says that it was "Manufactured in P.R.C." whereas everything else I've read says the real ones are made in South Korea. I'm very disappointed that Amazon doesn't have better control over its supply chain. Caveat Emptor!
