Bad Points
Ever since I've used them there's been a noticable smell (one which I never get if I use any other straighteners), but that's about the only bad point about them. And to be fair it might just be the rubbish that I put on my hair rather than the actual straighteners giving off a smell.

General Comments
Love these straighteners, even though they've just stopped working on me. I'm still going to go out and buy some more though as they are just that cheap that i can. Plus I'm gonna send them off to get repaired which will probably take ages so I think i'd best get off to the shops now! Otherwise I don't know what I'll do without some tomorrow morning!! I had GHDs until they broke about a day after the warranty expired (just my luck!), so I had to run to the shops with little money to try and find some alternative (I'm not sad it's just I have a style that needs straightening every day). I found these straighteners for £40 in Boots, and had to get them even though I was a bit wary about them. I was so glad i did though as they are every bit as good as GHDs, but a third of the price. It seems as everywhere sells them for £40 at the moment, which is handy because they just died on me after two years. Sounds a bit gutting but I do use them every single day so I can't blame them for dying really. Good job they come with a 5year warranty! I also especially love the heat mat - it gives me piece of mind that I won't burn my floor or anyone else's.
