Compact and nice for Travel!
I liked this item and am excited to bring it with me traveling as an alternative to a curling iron or flat iron. My hair type is fine stringy, medium length, not curly, and not straight, so this worked great a smoothing out my "bed head hair" (between washing) while still not making it look like I ironed stiff with a flat iron!  It heated up quickly and it took me a little more effort in getting a look that I was happy with, but that may be because I am not used to working with a tool like this.<br />I used the highest temperature to see how hot it would get.  It was fine for me and I didn't feel I needed the glove that came with it and that glove felt a bit more like a mitten than a heat shield. However, having it was nice if needed and added a layer of protection from the hot iron to the carrying bag so if I needed to throw it in a suitcase or bag after use, things around it would be fine. My hair was dry when I used it so I am not sure that I could comment on the "drying power."  If I could give it another half star
