This is an excellent set of rollers for taking with you when you travel. The compact size and shape make them incredibly easy to pack. They rollers heat up very fast and do an excellent job. The ceramic material the rollers are made out of seems to reduce the amount of frizz you can sometimes get from hot rollers. I actually have two sets of these as my hair needs a lot of rollers.

For the space conscious traveler, this set is hard to beat.

Conair HS28RPK Instant Heat Rollers, Breast Cancer Awareness, Power of Pink
This is a great, compact set of rollers. I have shoulder length hair and easily do my whole head with this set. They heat up fast and cause no tangling problems. My ONLY complaint is no on/off switch. I don't like plug/unplug. Why do we have switches on dryers and irons but not the rollers?

These rollers are terrible! I have been using hot rollers since they were invented and these are the worst. Very uneven heating - one roller gets hot but the one next to it is only warm. My hair gets tangled with these rollers and I have to pull them out, so there goes the curl. The pins are hard to use, leave lots of 'dents' in my hair, and all look exactly the same. I had to mark them so I could quickly tell the difference in size. I'm looking for new ones right now.

This heat roller set has just enough rollers for long fine hair. The 8 medium and 4 small rollers give body, curl, and wave to fine straight hair. The soft vinyl case is easier to use and store than the hard plastic cases. Only thing that could have been better would be receiving 4 small clips and 8 medium clips instead of 3 small clips and 9 medium clips. Medium clips don't stay on small rollers without connecting them to another roller.

I am a lifelong hot roller user. I have tried many brands, but hands down, Conair is the best.
So I was a bit disappointed when these travel rollers did not live up to my expectations.

PROS:

1) Very compact -- can fit into carry-on luggage
2) Not heavy
2) Inexpensive
3) Twelve rollers in two sizes
4) Operates on dual voltage

CONS:
1)Takes about 7 minutes to heat up
2)Inconsistent heat amongst the rollers, and does not maintain heat consistently
3) Reheating takes about three minutes
4)The rollers are all plastic, and can slide easily out of fine hair
5) I would have preferred larger sized rollers, but that is more a preference than a critique.


All in all, not my favorite, but darn good for the price and for travel.

These rollers are convenient to travel with but do not heat well and when heated do not maintain a steady temperature until used.

This is my second set. I bought one a few weeks ago. I have med to long hair and found I needed more curlers but the product does a wonderful job and both sets fit into my luggage like a charm

Purchased this for travel figuring there wouldn't be enough rollers for my thick hair to use regularly, but the rollers - designed with "starter grip strips" - actually hold much more hair than regular electric rollers. Pins also fit nicely & keep the rollers in place - even on top of the head. Like others have said, it would be nice to have an on/off switch and an indicator light to tell when rollers are ready, but the rollers work so well that those features are a very small inconvenience. The small size is also nice for home use - the entire unit takes up very little space. All around handy little electric roller set.

This set is perfect for travel. I would have liked the largest rollers to be much larger, but that's my fault, not theirs. I recommend it, esp for travel. Works great, heats up fast. Curls hold.

It doesn't heat up enough to set my hair and set curls. Very unhappy that it doesn't work for me, I love the look of it and package it comes in.

I bought the white clips to help set it, but neither the pins that came with it and the white clips were not successful for me and the curls looked terrible and I prefer to use a flat iron. They kept sliding out of my hair and were pulling on my hair.

Waste of money for me :(

Didn't get HOT enough to set curls in my hair.
