Review title is Things change [SEP] I have used this size and brand of curling iron for many, many years.  I usually keep a spare on hand &#34;just in case.&#34;  The new one I received is, well, new.  It gets really, really HOT quite fast--I burned my hands several times (slow learner).  The barrel seems smaller than 1 inch, and my hair gets curlier, but this may be due to the HOT factor.  The &#34;teeth&#34; are shorter, but I have relatively short hair so no problem; using this curling iron on longer hair may be difficult.  The rows of teeth tend to slide off the barrel--luckily, I've been able to retrieve them off the floor before the dog does.  So far.  The one change from the older model is the sequential switch:  off, low, high instead of low, off, high.  I will continue to buy this curling iron, but I would consider other brands if available.
