Review title is Great.....but [SEP] I would have given this five stars as it was an excellent straightener while it lasted. I had it about 7 years when it died. No problem. Lifetime warranty. You have to pay to ship it there and ship it back and the warranty is pro rated. I will say my daughter has the exact same one for longer and hers is still going strong. I just can’t see spending $150 again. As far as my hair it looked great. The heat is instant. I purchased mine in my salon so beware where you purchase because they won’t honor the warranties depending where you purchase.
