Love this curling iron ! This size is just perfect, not too big where it doesn't do much and not so small that I look like shirley temple. I love the long cord and its very good quality. It gets hot fast and stay hot, I keep it at a temperature of around 300 maybe to 330 and thats plenty hot for my hair. I also appreciate that the cord moves as you use the iron so it does not get tangled. Overall its very good quality, makes the perfect curl, and I love how I can control the temperature and that its not just a low and high setting.
