I love this flat iron. Its the best I've had so far and I have gone through quite a few. The CHI is definitely the worst by far and I also have a HerStyler and I still use that occasionally when I do someone elses hair but this is a definite tool for me. I dont have the straightest hair and I would classify my hair as crinkly curly with relaxed ends but I've been growing it out for almost a year without a relaxer and this is quite useful when I need it because after I wash my hair and straighten it I can just wrap it each night to maintain my style and I dont use it everyday because it lasts until I wash my hair and style it again.

Well, maybe not TOO old, technically speaking, but I've had this iron for three years now and I still love it. It was a Christmas present; after some research I selected this iron over others mainly because I wanted to try this "titanium" stuff and the price seemed fairly reasonable.

This thing works wonders. I have naturally straight hair any, but this iron eliminates all my random frizzies and occasional errant waves. It heats up fast, gets VERY hot (I use most of my heat styling tools on maximum setting, but not this one), and on the whole is quite effective. The buttons make for easy use, and it makes good contact with my hair (I can't stand those irons that cant "grip" hair and just lets it slide through).

The plates are really shiny, almost mirrored. I feel like it conducts heat much better than ceramic, and it's quite pretty! Also, this iron does not require frequent cleaning. My ceramic irons always used to get burnt, brown buildup on them that I would have to clean off. Not so with this one! I can remember having to clean this iron ONCE in my three years of ownership, and even then it was a very slight buildup that came off with a damp cloth.

What I really love about this product, though is that I can use it to curl my hair! I doesn't have a rounded shape, but it still works wonders (you can look up many videos on Youtube for technique on how to do this). My hair, like I said, is naturally straight; before I tried this iron it would not hold a curl at all (or, if it did, it required at least two hours of hard work with a curling iron and at least half a bottle of hair spray). Now, however, it takes me 20 minutes, tops. A few spritzes of light-hold hairspray, and I'm done; the curls can even last for a second day of wear.

Like all irons, I recommend a good heat protectant so your hair doesn't fry, but overall I LOVE LOVE LOVE this iron.

This flat iron is excellent. It has an adjustable range for heat from 300-450 degrees. It is really smooth and doesn't get caught in your hair. It has an adjustable cord so it doesn't get all tangled up. I love it and recommend it highly.

I have been using a Chi straightener for most of my life and I thought it was the best. This past Christmas I bought this straightener for my mom. I used it all month and the difference is amazing. I don't know if it's because of the titanium plates or the degree to which it heats, but it straightens the hair in one pass through and leaves it SO SHINY. My hair stays straight longer after using this, too. I love it and have made the switch to babyliss!

The flat iron far surpasses my chi in performance. The top becomes extremely hot, not allowing you to use both hands on the flat iron. It is a little big and bulky at this size, but the finished product is very straight and shiny. It does not work well for curling, the sides are too flat, and it works better if you can hold the top, again it is too hot to do this.

This flat iron is AMAZING!!! I spent a lot of time researching and trying to find the best flat iron for my long,thick,wavy/curly, hair and the babyliss does the job. In the past it took me around 45 min to get my hair somewhat straight, now using the babyliss it takes me under 15 min and my hair is pin straight. Also, before using this flat iron I used a chi that really dried and damaged my hair. However the babyliss makes my hair feel and look super healthy!!! It really is the best! :) BUY IT!

Very nice flat iron. But be EXTREMLY careful with heat settings - iron gets very, very hot. Works very well on lower settings and pulls through hair nice and smooth. One disadvantage is the outside edges get very hot and you can burn your neck or arms etc.

No need to straighten your hair with all those toxic chemicals once you own this iron! I bought this iron for my daughter who has very thick and curly hair. We needed a solution but I didn't want to expose her to chemicals. It works like magic! Every time she uses it its like she just stepped out of the beauty parlor! I have been using it too and I have never gotten more compliments on my hair! No frizz, no wave, silk and straight! I'm telling you you will be amazed! Just be careful it gets very hot!!!

My hairstylist recommended this brand, and it works great. Smooths my hair more quickly than my T3. I like the wider plates also. I'd recommend purchase.

This straightener is definitely the one professionals use. it heats quickly, gets hot and doesnt cause any damage to my hair. the chi died after 3 years, and i didnt realize it at the time, but my bangs were kind of fried. This is what my stylist uses and i believe it gets hotter than most any other brand. id rather use high heat and go thru once than lower and having to keep going over the same piece of hair. to me, that causes less damage. this does the job quickly and i just put some serum like smooth down on dry hair first. wont waste my time with any cheap straighteners again. the only drawback is since its prof quality it doesnt shut off after 15 minutes and might be a problem if you have small children around.
