Caution
This steam iron did not straighten my hair.  The tines (comb portion) were too long which meant that I had to utilize a huge portion of hair to achieve enough pressure to straighten my hair, approximately 1/4 of my entire head of hair.  Even  this did not straighten my hair like my previous steam InStyler that finally stopped working.  This  unit would be okay if you have thick curly hair but ,if you don;t, you'll have straight frizzy hair, not at all smooth.  I returned the iron & purchased the McBoo steam hair straightener & the difference was like night to day.  You  can straighten in small or larger amount of hair.  In addition, it only required one pass for super straight hair.  I decided on the McBoo after researching the numerous steam iron straighteners on-line, ranging from $10 to hundreds of dollars so I believe I was very fortunate to discover a product that works so well.  The McBoo was only $15 more ($60), much less than I spent on the InStyler several years ago.  I hope that this feedback helps all.
