Nothing special.
Not at all what I expected by the reviews. Yes, it does straighten OK, though not as good as a flat iron, and it's pretty quick about what good it does. But it is heavy, awkward and cumbersome making it hard to use without touching the hot bristles. Also the controls are confusing, and in an inconvenient location so when you are using the brush you tend to inadvertently turn it off. I think all the great reviews must've been influenced by the free or discounted product because this is nothing great. I'm seriously contemplating sending mine back. I DID NOT get it free or discounted, by the way.
