THANK YOU EVERYONE for the great reviews, it made me buy this product. I'm so happy I did! I had an expensive Maxiglide and the plug broke and I didn't want to spend $100 for another. No need! This product gets very hot and works amazing. Its so lightweight and heats up in seconds. I'm very happy and you will probably be too.

Flat iron

I received the flat iron about a month ago at a really good price and it has performed pretty well for me. I haven't had any problems with it. Thank you

Gets the job done

I was searching for a cheap flat iron to store at my boyfriend's house so that I would not have to transport my Solia 1 1/4'' Ceramic Tourmaline back and forth each weekend. I wanted a product that looked similar to my Solia since I was already accustomed to using it. I found this one and purchased it due to high reviews. It arrived the next day (bonus points), even though I received free shipping. At a price a little over $17, this item met all my expectations. Some reviewers on other sites have stated that this Andis is just as good if not better than a $100+ CHI, but I highly doubt that is so. When I opened the product from its plastic case, I could tell right away that the quality was not comparable to my Solia which was ~$85. So if you are able to spend the extra dollars, definitely go for a higher end iron, as it is much worth its price. Anyhoos, as for this specific product, it is able to go up to 375 degrees (as stated on its packaging). However, the heat dial on the iron is not in units of degrees, rather it is on some sort of scale from 0-20. First I set the dial to 15, but felt the heat radiating from it from a foot away, so I truned the dial down to 10. It heated up in about a minute. I have found that I could get my hair straight on the first go if I just went slowly with a small section of hair at a time. I had permed my hair into loose waves last Decemeber, and now that it's grown out a bit, I have found the curls to look a bit awkward and prefer to straighten it when I have the time. For reference, I have thick, Asian hair that is naturally pretty straight (but now chemically permed). I was able to straighten my hair in less than 10 minutes, taking care to straighten the bottom, middle, and top portions separately. I used VO5 Heat Defense spray to protect my hair and let it dry prior to ironing. However, I did not feel that my hair was as smooth or as shiny as when I used my Solia. A couple times while I was ironing with the Andis, I could feel the plates catching a couple hairs and pulling them out (ouch). While this product is a good purchase for $17, I am glad that I will only be using this only the weekends and not everyday.

For the price ($16) its great

Does what it is supposed to do. Gets VERY VERY hot, so I'm glad there is a dial temperature setting. I find that my hair snags a bit where the plate meets the plastic, at the very end bit of hair. The ceramic plates are not salon quality but for the price, its a really good deal. Better than the ones you'll find in a drugstore in the $20-30 range.

Works great, without the expensive price

I had been using a 2" flat iron and wanted to switch to a 1", ceramic iron, but didn't want to spend $100+. I'm glad I didn't spend the extra money, b/c this one works perfectly! It heats up quickly, irons my hair in no time and I can run it down the length of my hair without hair getting caught. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to purchase a flat iron. My mother has an expensive ceramic iron she bought at a salon and this one works just as well. Good buy!

It's ok.

It works. That's about it. It's worth the money...I paid under $20. But if you have seriously frizzy hair or trouble straightening....this won't work for you.

Good Flat Iron

I ordered the Andis brand flat iron after using a friend's and found it superior to the brand I had. I've been using this particular model for several weeks now, and I like the results. I do still get hair caught between the metal and the plastic some times, but other than that, I am happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone.

Great Iron

This straightener is the best. I bought it at Walmart for $15.00 and I also have a $100.00 one, and my andis works better....way better!!!!!! I love it.

Don't work as well as people have been reviewing it

Looks nice and heats up well, but doesn't clamp down enough to straighten your hair. Returned it today.

Perfect! No need to buy a $100 flat iron!

I am African American and have very thick relaxed hair. This flat iron is the best thing I've used in a very long time. I'm so glad I didn't spend $100 for a higher end model. It gets super hot (I didn't even have it on the highest setting!) and the rounded edges really help make a nice, soft curl.

Love it!
