Great straightener!
November 29, 2008
I have had my 2" Turbo for over 3 years now and it's worked perfectly. I've traveled all over with it and have just thrown it in my bag numerous times and it's lasted. The felt is worn but that's all that is wrong with it.
That being said, I have been very lucky with my Chi. It seems to be a hit or a miss with them. Some work great from day 1 and last years, others fail miserably very shortly after purchase. My mother and sister both have had straighteners that have failed very shortly after the year warranty.
I think that Amazon has the best prices (i'm looking to get a new one for my little sister for Christmas) and is worth the risk ... just keep in mind there is a risk. Judging by the reviews, the defective products seem to make up a small minority. I will be contacting Amazon before my purchase though, to inquire about their return policy for this item. The cost might make it worth buying from here rather than in-store where they fulfill the year warranty but charge twice as much.
Best flat iron

It's a great deal! It heats up fast, works great, never any problems. I've had it for a year, and I use it all the time. It makes my hair look so soft and shiney. Try using the CHI heat products to protect your hair.
excellent flat iron

I love this straightner! I have very thick,coarse hair and it took forever to straighten. I took a chance on the CHI straightner and it easily cuts my straighting time in half. It was well worth the money, even though it much more than I've ever spent on a straightner before. From now on, I'll only use this straightner!!
