Great for my hair, just not for Foriegn countries
Reviewer: Peggy from West Lafayette, IN USA   2009-10-01

This product says it will adjust to 240V, but that is not true. In fact, in certain parts of the world, even with a converter, it will not work. Wish they would make one for 240V only so I could travel over seas with it.

love the results/Hate the product!!
Reviewer: Valerie from Round Lake IL USA   2009-09-10

I have fine hair, I love the curl I get from my steam rollers but I absolutely HATE the product itself. I have bought 3 sets in the last 8 months - I refuse to do it again. The rollers fall apart - I have had to piece them together,I bought extra in the small rollers at an outrageous price (they probably cost the company a penny per hundred) they charge about $15 for six of the rollers. The machine itself goes out in a matter of months. I am surprised that a company like CARUSO would make such a inferior product! Shame on you, Caruso! I for one am done with your product for good!

Looking for other products
Reviewer: TM Wong from Canada   2009-08-07

When I first found out about the Caruso steam setter 15 years ago, I was thrilled. It was the best steam product ever and the first one I bought lasted me for a good 5 years (this was the pink coloured one where salt had to be added to the water). I recently bought the newer Caruso product and I am so disappointed it's gone kaput in less than a year. What has happened to the quality? Is the manufacturer even listening to all our complaints? I am hesistant to buy another one especially after reading all the other reviews. Any suggestions for other reliable steam hairsetters?

Prefered the older model
Reviewer: casa from southeast us   2009-07-31

I have owned both the old model which required salt and the new one that does not require salt. My blond hair is fine, and there's lots of it. It ranges from almost straight at the crown, to curly on the sides, to frizzy at my temples. The old model did a lot better job of taming the frizz. After years and years of wonderful service, the salt finally rusted the heating element in half and it died. The new model doesn't seem to produce as much steam, doesn't get the rollers as steamy or hot as it's older brother, so it's a lot of work for less than great results.

Same boat....great when it works
Reviewer: Susan Nilsson from Chicago, Illinois   2009-06-19

I too have used the Caruso system for more than 20 years. It seems lately that the product is going kaput after a VERY short period of time. I have gone through two units in less than six months. I'm currently using the rollers with an old steam unit that may be from the 1970's....but it's working. WHY WON'T CARUSO SELL THE STEAM UNIT WITHOUT THE ROLLERS??? I also question if the "quietness" of the unit is such a good idea ... the "clicking" noise used to remind me..."Turn off this unit!!". I'm debating about ordering another one...Four times bitten, getting shy.
