5.0 out of 5 stars great for UK travel, June 2, 2009

This review is from: Ceramic Tools CT155S 1-1/2" Dual Voltage Professional Ceramic Spring Curling Iron (Health and Beauty)

I purchased this curling iron/straightener for a 9-day trip to London, and I was extremely happy with the purchase and effectiveness of the item. I did extensive reading/research on the web and various travel sites, and I even spoke w/my Italian hairstylist (who travels back to Italy regularly) who reports he's had several problems with other items, and insisted I get a transformer and adapter as the only way to prevent destroying the curling iron. These are costly (~$30-40 in U.S), plus cost of item, so I decided to spend that same money on the curling iron alone and take my chances. Thus I was fully prepared for this little item to blow up once I got to London and plugged it in, but I honestly can say it worked perfectly the entire week. I had the small adapter plug (which can be purchased for $9 in the US or sometimes as low as 2-5pounds in the UK/Scotland), which is far less expensive than a transformer, and took the iron to various friends homes/flats and had no issues whatsoever. It heats up very quickly, curled my hair nicely, and the curl held throughout the day except in heavy rain (which I considered normal and would have happened in the U.S.). The only mild limitation was that it doesn't grip hair as tightly as some other curling irons I've used, but it certainly did so enough to be effective. It also takes a while to cool down, so bring a sleeve for it when you use it! All in all, fairly affordable and functional. Happy travels!

3.0 out of 5 stars Pros: Gets Hot Quick. Cons: Not very durable., March 14, 2008

This review is from: Ceramic Tools CT155S 1-1/2" Dual Voltage Professional Ceramic Spring Curling Iron (Health and Beauty)

This product is leaps and bounds above it's other price-range curling irons - it gets very hot relatively quickly and is pretty easy to use.

Unfortunately you do get what you pay for (and I was ripped off paying $45 at the beauty store for it.) After about 2 days of use, there was a short in the rotating cord and if the iron is held at an odd angle, it turned off. It was still usable, but I had to modify the way I curled my hair to avoid it turning off and losing heat. After about 6 months, you can see the ceramic coating chipping off a little - and I used the iron about 3-4x per month.

If you're in the market for a cheap curling iron - I would suggest this because compared to the Revlon, Remington and Conair brands I've had in the past, this is the closest to a high end curling iron among them - most likely you will have better luck with your iron than I did.

This review is from: BaByliss Pro Ceramic Tools CT75S 3/4" Dual Voltage Professional Ceramic Spring Curling Iron (Health and Beauty)

I bought this to take with me on my trip to Europe. I really hate hassling with transformers (they rarely fit well, Euro and UK plugs are recessed) and I didn't want to fry my $$$ 110 voltage curling iron, so this fit the bill. They are hardly any ceramic dual voltage curling irons with a variety of sizes to choose from. I think I could only find Babyliss and Ceramic tools. Besides the decent reviews and reasonable price, I ultimately choose this one because of the long barrel. I have long hair and need the room to work my hair.
