Good but with some flaws,

I've been looking around for a good tourmaline ceramic curling iron and went with this one for now because of the low price. I do like it and as far as I can tell it does not seem to damage my hair. Maybe in the future I'll go with a pricier one but for now this one seems to do just fine.
Pros:
- heats up fast and has different heat settings
- the protective cover comes in handy
- can't beat the price
- tourmaline ceramic - better than just ceramic or
worse, bare metal
- looks nice
- swivel cord
- auto shut off
Cons:
- the on/off switch is in a bad spot on the handle.. I
am constantly shutting off the iron by accident
- the cool tip is not long enough to hold onto, making
it easy to burn your fingers
- I honestly have not had this iron more than a week
so I can't say there aren't more cons but I'll
update this if I do find any

Easily Curls my Hard to Curl Hair ~I LOVE THIS IRON~,

I actually have the 2" and it is by far the best curiling iron I have ever used. My hair is the type that has always been hard to curl even with a "gallon" of hairspray, it just would never hold. (I have long/thick hair) I barely put any hairspray on and my curls were awesome loose curls. I plan on getting the 1 1/4" inch one also for some tighter curls.
You know how the skinny ends of your hair you usually have to use your fingers to wrap the hair around because it will slide right through? That didnt happen with this. No matter how skinny the ends of my hair were or how skinny a section of hair I did, the curling iron gripped the hair right to the very end so I never had crappy looking ends or burned my fingers wrapping it around.
I have nothing negative to say about this curling iron at all.

I used this for the first time this morning, and I CAN'T believe the difference tourmaline makes! I had a ceramic iron before, and there is NO comparison! I wouldn't bother spending the big $ on chi or T3 - for the price you cannot beat this one!
