This is such a cool design I just wish it worked properly. I contacted Chi customer service and they said it’s malfunctioning, I’ve had this flat iron for THREE days. When you unlock it and increase the temp it’s supposed to show you the current temp then start climbing to the new set temp. The current temp should be what it was locked at . Example video… it was locked at 370 I unlocked increased to 380 and the current temp showed 395! Another time I had it at 360 increased to 380 it showed current temp 347. Not sure if this really works but I used a thermometer ( meat thermometer and heat sensing thermometer) and it always showed something different kept changing temps , when it was set and locked at 380 the temp on these thermometers said 348 but kept changing . I had to return . I have fine hair and need to know what temp I’m using. If your purchase one and it seems like it’s working properly I can tell you it slides through my hair very easily, no snags, leaves my hair shiny and it’s easy to hold . I’ve owed another Chi for 8-10 years with the dial , still works and love it but wanted a new upgraded one. UPDATE: 1/12/24- I wanted to try again and ordered this flat iron through a salon this time. Guess what… SAME issue … Fluctuating temps and this time this one was used with someone’s hair stuck in it and marks on the iron. I am done trying with this flat iron. Such a cool iron but two have now not worked the way it’s supposed to. Extremely frustrated. I’m going to try the T3 next. Read more

Nicely created and works great. However a little to much money but works nicely and has a long cord to reach when using Read more

You wanna try to get as new technology as you can for flat irons considering they were only created in 1990. This one was made in 2021, but for some reason, you still can't buy this one in stores (namely Ulta). I had my original of this flat iron stolen and bought it again eventually because going back to a different flat iron didn't hit the same. The Babyliss Titanium flat iron burnt the hell out of my hair at the same temps I use this one at. Glides very well and the lava plates retain heat very well. I have ADHD and get distracted af and it turns off by itself after an hour, but it heats back up very well so it's never a big deal. I'd recommend this to anybody. Read more

Wish I had bought a Chi straightener years ago. I tried other brands but I really love the results with this one . My hair is perfectly straight and smooth and I have fine colored / treated hair. I also recommend to use the Chi silk infusion and their thermal spray. My hair stays this nice for several days. Incredible! Read more
