i love this iron but it does not come with gloves as specified [SEP] this flat iron comes with two strange looking hair clips and a carry pouch however gloves were not included in the package as i had expected it is for this reason i lowered my rating it is deceiving to the customer to purchase an item thinking it comes with gloves when it does notthe controls are in the center of the iron so i had to be careful not to burn my fingers to turn the unit on or off i just held down the power button for three seconds to go to the next temperature i just pressed the on off button quickly this flat iron heats rapidly the temperature selections available go from to i used it at degrees to straighten my hair and i was able to do this relatively quickly as i have short curly hair also there was no frizz after i was done the clips provided are strange looking as can be seen from the photo they work good enough to hold some of my hair but i particularly do not care for the designthe soft sided cinch pouch is nice and holds both the iron and the clipsin summary this is a gorgeous iron i love how the blades come together and there is no space in between like some other irons i tried also the current price of minus is very reasonable for this the amazon site says dual voltage and complete accessories equipped with storage bag hair clips and gloves well it was missing the last item had it come with the gloves i would have rated this stars
