Piece of Junk,
September 17, 2008 Amazon Reviewer (Nevada, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Instant Heat Curling Iron, 1-Inch (Health and Beauty)
OK, so after reading all of the reviews on this product my wife buys one. Well, in about 6 weeks the iron won't heat anymore. Sent it in got a new one because of the 2 year warranty (cost $10.00 for shipping & handling plus they wanted $3.00 for themselves). She used it about 4 months and then the little spring breaks. Having used other curling irons over the years and having had to replace the springs, we thought to call Conair and have them send us a replacement spring, about a $.10 item which takes about 60 seconds to replace. Well, they no longer sell the springs. The wanted to have us pack it up again and spend another $10.00 for shipping AND send them $3.00 to boot. Who are they kidding? What kind of service are they giving their customers. I will never buy another Conair product. I gave this product only one star because I couldn't go any lower.

Best Curling Iron Ever,
November 1, 2000 By A Customer
This review is from: Instant Heat Curling Iron, 1-Inch (Health and Beauty)
I bought this product because it indicated 30 second heat up time. It is great. You plug it in, hit the on button, select a heat level (1-15) , and in less than 30 seconds it is hot. No more waiting around for the iron to heat up. Quick touch ups take no time at all. I'll never go back to the "old style" plug and wait.

Best curling iron I've found but don't turn it up to number 15!,
October 12, 2009 I am the kind of person who will splurge on cosmetics and beauty products and feel it's worth it so I don't necessarily look for the bargain buy in this area but the best working product.
Fortunately, this curling iron is not only priced well for the value, it beats out the "old school" curling irons I've used for the last 30 years.
I actually bought mine at Walgreens for a higher price after reading about it in a magazine.
Unlike any other iron I've used this one actually heats up in...wait for it....wait for it....30 SECONDS!!!
You can also choose your heat level from 1-15 but be leary of that 15---that is a scorcher.
However, some may be looking for that high of a heat. I keep it around the medium to medium high numbers and it curls in an instant. And I have uber thick hair.
Touch ups are instant rather than waiting for the iron to heat up. If I am going out and find I've missed a spot I can basically now instantly...Read more
