Review (4/5): works great
This heats up really fast and does what you want it to, straighten or "curl" your hair. I haven't tried actually creating curls with it, but I have curled it enough for the ends to curl under or towards my face. It comes very nicely packaged and comes with some clips and a glove with silicone dots to use with the hot end of the wand. I see myself using this from time to time to change my curly hair to straight. No amount of product can make your hair as silky and smooth as a straight iron. I've not really had experience with others, but I really like this one. If you have weak hands or arthritis holding it closed yourself might be an issue, so use the glove to help with the other end.
