This Review Title is Go with a different flat/curling iron and the content is: Took on vacation out of the country and this curling/flat iron heated wayyyyy too hot!  It was burning the hair to a crisp.  The barrel is so short it takes forever to curl or flat iron your hair.  I would not recommend this iron.  Damages the hair and too small.  And yes it heats way too hot here stateside as well..There are other information for this review, one is This reviewer did purchase it and the other is 2 people think this review is helpful.
