Was looking forward to my CHI flat iron, but starting the first time a plugged it in the red power light starting flickering on and off, and it didn't seem to get very hot. Have heard CHI's often do this witin a year, but didn't expect it to upon first use! Am returning it and may try a Sedu instead!

I love the CHI turbo flat Iron. I have a lot of hair curly/wavy and I can do this in 15 minutes and my hair looks perfect. I'm buying this second one for my sister in law who recently started straighting her hair. I've had the same CHI flat iron for 4 years and it's still does a great job.
Glad I finally bought a CHI!!!

I have used this Chi Turbo flat iron for about 6 years. It heats up really fast and gets the job done. I paid a lot more for mine but the price on this site is a good deal, plus if you take care of it, it will last for years.

I have had to return this product two times in less than two months, due too electrical problems. The flat iron light wouldn't always turn on and heat up the iron. Not really happy, especially since I'am not a beautician & I don't even use it every day. But when it does work, it works great.
Chi is the best I have tried others.

Chi is tops. It is so easy to use! I had a Maxiglide and sent it back it was too cumbserome. This is lightweight and gets the job done. So far, so good!!! I would recommend this iron. Keep your hair moisturized.

I bought the Chi because my sister's Hair Dresser said that all the Hairdressers use them. Even my neice who is a Hair Dresser uses them and recommends them.
I have have long think curly hair and I like the product but time is an issue with me. I would prefer something that you would only have to go over twice verses 3 to 4 times to get it look straight without a hint of wave.
I have not been able to find such a product but this is will do the job if you have the time to wait.

I love my CHI Ceramic Turbo, 1" flat iron!! The iron doesn't fry my hair and my hair doesn't get caught in the plates. It's just always comes out silky smooth.
Awesome iron

I love the Chi Ceramic Turbo Flat Iron. It heats up quickly. I have tried others and they pulled my hair. The Chi goes through the hair easily. I don't think I will ever use another brand.
Great Product

After MUCH review, I decided to buy the CHI flat iron. This is only my second flat iron so I can't compare to other top brands as my first was a cheaper metal iron. It's been great so far!! I'm very pleased and happy with my purchase.
No problems with pulling hair, it's easy to manuever, takes NO TIME to straighten and doesn't burn my fingers (if I'm careful). My hair stays flat all day long...even in this Texas heat and humidity!!
WORST FLAT IRON FROM CHI

I was so disappointed with this purchase. I have another Chi flat iron which I bought locally. When I went to buy another one for my daughter, they were out so I went on the web.
After ready the reviews I figured a Chi can't be bad. Well, this one was horrible. I used it and thought it was useless. I didn't say anything and when my daughter used it on her trip, she brought it back and said RETURN IT. Chi has better products and less costly.
So far, so good

I have only been using the Chi iron for 2 months, but I am in love. I can't believe I waited so long to make this purchase. I am handling it like a baby, because I am so concerned about it breaking prematurely. So far, so good. I have strange kinky hair that frizzes at the mere thought of humidity and I live in Texas. The Chi is fantastic and I'm loving every minute of it. I have tried less expensive ceramic plate irons before, but they don't accomplish even half of what this one does. 2 thumbs up!
I LOVE IT!

My hair is very thick and I love doing it but with my revlon flat iron I have to go over one area two and three times before it will straighten. With the CHI iron I went over a section of my hair once, went to go over it again but i didn't have to! I LOVE IT!!

I just got my hair cut and the stylist who straightened my hair used the CHI Turbo flat iron and I swear that I probably had more split ends when she was done than when she cut mine off. My hair was still slighly wavy(un-like my Solia that I use at home) and it pulled the ends of my hair, it was horrible. Yes, I do not OWN this particular flat iron, but just from experiencing it in the salon, I don't see what the big deal is with CHI, it's way over-hyped. I bought my Solia for around $85 dollars, cheaper than what this particular CHI costs, and mine works better. Maybe the setting wasn't set to what I usually use? I don't know, but overall it's poor quality. Ever hear of the saying: Expensive isn't always better? I have, and this is certainly the case.
I highly recommend the CHI

I keep trying irons and i think this and the original Sedu are the ones ill return to. This does a beautiful job straightening, doesnt get too hot on the outside, doesnt snag which is VERY important to me. Im going to buy a spare
Pretty good

This product was a good investment at the time, but I didn't know that it wasn't 100% ceramic and I am now considering selling this flat iron and buying one that is 100% ceramic so as not to damage my hair. This is a good item to buy, but I would not pay more than 75 dollars for it now.
Straightens hair, but dries and not reliable

For the past four years, I have only used a Chi. My first iron was the original model which I absolutely loved. After an unfortunate fall from the bathroom counter, I bought the Turbo, thinking I was moving up in the "Chi world". I didn't notice any difference in the performance of the Turbo, but was still satisfied with the straightening results.
I have owned this second Chi for a little over a year and now it is having electrical problems. (i have already read similar complaints.) It seems as though the switch is bad. The light flickers and I have to beat it to get it to come back on. Also, after cutting my hair really short (which I couldn't have done without straightener products) I have really been able to notice the damage that the Chi causes to my hair. In a month's time, my hair was fried from the usage of the Chi. I have been researching irons and it seems as though a sedu is the way to go. My next purchase will be a sedu.
