Better than the Chi. Doesn't burn the hair. Really, really good. Recommended 100%

Best straightener ever!! It is the only one that still leaves a little bit of body in my hair, so I don't have completely flat, lifeless strands. The detachable combs give you greater control and...

I bought this product in May 2002 for $125 (including S&H) to combat Florida humidity, and this is the best damn straightening iron I have ever owned. My hair is naturally wavy (not the good kind,...

I have been using this straightener since high school/college. It was all the rage then, and for good reason. It is the best straightener I have ever used, although I must say that I have not used...

I travel for my work quite a bit, and the flat iron I'm reviewing is a dual-voltage model (2.25 inch). The iron really flattens my hair and gives it an even, shiny appearance. It also doesn't seem...

The Solano Sapphire Straightener is the one I have had the most luck with. I bought one about 6 years ago, and it was the first time I could get my hair looking so silky and straight. I love the...

I got this straightener 3 years ago and it's still working well. Before that, I used cheap drugstore straighteners that were never hot enough to do much for my long, thick wavy hair (and I have a...

I've had this iron for a long time. I also have the CHI, but I prefer my blue Solano. The CHI I own has too small plates, and I get tired with it. This iron has perfect sized plates, so I can...

The best, hands down, IMO. I've had mine for years and last year decided to try a ceramic Sedu - it went back to Folica the following week. I also purchased a HAI Convertable off eBay for the...

I have the 1 1/4 size flat iron and I've used it for years. I like it b/c it does a wonderful job straightening my coarse, thick, kinky (but not curly) hair. The plates get incredibly hot and my...

I have this iron with the 2" plates. (My hair is fairly long, fine, but very curly.) I've used it for 4 or 5 years with no problem--my stylist was using it at the time, and I was very happy with...

I spent a lot of money on this because I heard it was the best one in a certain beauty magazine that rates products, and I was befuddled when it turned out to be a piece of junk. It snagged so much...

I agree with other reviewer who said this was bulky...it is sometimes hard to hold. But it straightens my frizzy hair fast without damaging the ends. I am on my second Salono iron...the first one...

Definitely does the job, but the cons outweigh the pros. Very awkward and heavy - especially cumbersome when you have a lot of hair like me - I agree that it was meant to be used when someone else...

While this does have the wattage to make my naturally curly hair stick-straight, it snags on my hair while I use it (ouch!) and is heavy. I get major wrist fatigue using it. And like most flat...

This straightening iron is the best hair styling investment I have ever made. I bought it prior to getting married (5 yrs ago) and to this day both my marriage and the iron are going strong.
