Customer Reviews of CHI Turbo Digital Microchip Ceramic Hairstyling Iron 1"

Customer Review: It is easy and fast to use.
Summary: 5 Stars

It is easy and fast to use. I have curly hair and live in a humid area and my hair stays straight until the next time I wash it. I am very happy with this product.

Customer Review: I called Farouk...
Summary: 1 Stars

I purchased a 1" Chi Turbo for my daughter less than one year ago - still under warranty. The red felt started to come off and it was burning her fingers. NOTE: She uses this iron only occasionally. I called Farouk, the manufacturer, and left a message for someone to call back with a return authorization approval. After three weeks passed, I called again and was told to return it with a check for $15. When I asked why the $15, I was told that it was to cover return shipping. There is no mention of return shipping charges in the warranty. I questioned the rep and she stated that this was Farouk's policy. The estimated time to repair was 3 to 5 weeks!! For giggles, I checked the UPS rate to ship this item back and it was under $5. So, as this item probably costs about $10 to manufacture, it looks like the purchaser winds up paying for both the return shipping as well as the cost of the item. NICE way to treat someone who spent $120 on your product! If I treated my customers this way, I would be out of business in short order. When new, this item worked extremely well. I will never purchase from this manufacturer again and you can bet that my daughter will tell all of her friends at school, etc. that this manufacturer does not stand behind its products.

Customer Review: My hair dresser always used this hair iron to straighten my hair and it always came out fabulous.
Summary: 5 Stars

My hair dresser always used this hair iron to straighten my hair and it always came out fabulous. So I finally broke down, spent the money and threw my old one in the trash. I researched where to buy it from and Amazon had the best price around with the fastest shipping. I am very happy with the product.

Customer Review: I was suspect of the need for "ceramic ions" and "far infrared technology"...
Summary: 5 Stars

I was suspect of the need for "ceramic ions" and "far infrared technology", but this iron was highly recommended by salon personnel, so I decided to dish out the money and try it. You don't need to believe the hype to realize that this is a top quality product. This was a case of "you get what you pay for"! It is lightweight and ergonomic, heats up almost immediately, has a slider bar for varying heat from 176-356F (80-180C), and velvety felt that protects you from burns (also allows me to get closer to my ears and scalp without getting burned). The latter feature is worth the money to me alone, and the the ceramic feels much gentler to my hair (I have baby fine hair very prone to breakage). Two other things to keep in mind when choosing a straightener:

1) size matters - smaller size is better - it's more maneuverable, and doing smaller sections at a time will produce better results. for superfine hair, I recommend the 0.7" (mistakenly advertised as 0.07")

2) not all ceramic is created equal - there are solid ceramic plates or plates COATED with ceramic that are cheaper. the ceramic layer on the coated plates can peel off and is supposedly damaging to your hair (not to mention your product is ruined).

so yes, this iron is more expensive, but hopefully it will last for years of top-notch straightening.
