Pros: Similar to other CHI's
Cons: Switch, smaller, features not worth it
Summary: I had a Chi Flat Iron and broke it. I dropped it on my ceramic tile in my bathroom one day, and one of the ceramic plates popped out. Well this is a crisis situation in my hair world, so I quickly shopped around ...

Pros: straightens with ease
adjustable temp
heats up quick
Cons: poorly made
too expensive
can't use it with a converter (per the instruction booklet)
Summary: I had the 2" Turbo for just over a year (12 months and a few days, literally) before it broke. Having spent over $100 for a straightener, I really expected it to last more than a year. I had a Helen of Troy straightener that I spent $50 and it lasted ...

Pros: Even heat, fast heat-up, high performance, cuts down straightening time.
Cons: A little big, pricey.
Summary: I have been using more affordable irons my entire life. After all of them starting to perform less adequately in less than a year, I decided to spend the extra money for a high-performance iron. After asking friends that I knew had very curly hair what ...

Pros: Straightens Well
Cons: Died after one year!
Summary: I bought the CHI iron because honestly, I was tired of replacing flat irons every three to six months. At first, I had trouble justifying the cost of this product (A hundred dollars or more for a hair appliance? Really?) but I soon realized that ...

Pros: Gets hair stick straight and frizz free; Heats up quickly.
Cons: Expensive; leaves hair hot enough to burn your fingers RIGHT after using it-OUCH!!
Summary: Why I purchased Chi Turbo: I have naturally curly hair (very curly)that falls to my mid back. So, of course, with straight being the hot trend, I tried to figure out how to straighten it without all of the freaky frizz I get from just blow drying it. ...

Pros: Velvet lining on handles, Controls on outside, fast straightening iron
Cons: On/Off button on the outside, will pinch your skin if holding it certain way, pricey!!
Summary: I have naturally wavy, frizzy hair. For about 6 years I have been using flat irons to straighten out my hair. I have bought so many flat irons over the years that they seemed all the same until I tried the Chi brand! I heard about the Chi from my ...

Safer to use than regular CHI.
If left on won't burn.

Red part of Iron starts to peel off.
Summary: Turbo Chi is simply just AWESOME!! I have the worst case of curly frizzy hair and this wonderful invention makes me look like a Pantiene Pro-V model! I have been using different straightening irons for over 10 years and I have tried almost everyone on ...

Pros: No snag, high heat ceramic plates. Weighted nicely w/ ergonomic handle. Temperature Dial.
Cons: Pricey but a necessay evil.
Summary: Fellow epinionator, mashimaru, wrote a very thorough and spot-on review of this pricey, but oh so worth it straight iron. If I were to be as thorough, would be redundant. So, let me just be the girl in the back that nods and agrees that this hair ...

Pros: Very effective styling tool that causes minimal to no hair damage.
Cons: Pricey! Problems reported that it shorts out. Manufacturer will not honor warranty if purchased online.
Summary: Note: Most flat irons come in two basic shapes: the X-shape (like scissors), and the V-shape (like tongs). My Flat Iron History: 1. General Electric Curl Tamer - The Sad Half-Grown Perm My hair is naturally straight. When I was ...

Pros: It got hot fast and did straighten my hair.
Cons: Something that gets that hot, can't be good for you hair!!!!
Summary: December, 2010, I purchased a Chi Hairstyling Iron. It not only got so hot that it burnt the towel it was setting on, but it fried my hair. I had to cut my hair so short and will continue to cut it until the frizz is gone. Do not

Pros: heats up fast, no snagging
Cons: way, way, way too pricey
didn't work much better than my $40 iron
Summary: I have long, pretty thick hair that's naturally curly. I've been straightening it for years but I always have to use a curling iron afterwards because my hair loses shape and frizzes like crazy if I just leave it straight. I thought that maybe this $170

Pros: heat's up really fast, gets hair straight.
Cons: The cost
Summary: I have had both the original chi and the turbo and I like the turbo because the handles don't burn. It gets my hair (ethnic, short bob) really straight on the first time, but I always run it through at least three times to ensure that it has the sheen

Pros: Leaves hair very soft and silky and quicker than the blower ;-)
Cons: expensive and handles get way too HOT!
Summary: I recently purchased the chi turbo 2" and I used it on my daughter's hair. It was much quicker than the blow dryer and it left her hair so soft and silky. The results are much different than other straighting methods. Use with either chi infusion or
