Very sad Sedu owner.....

I bought the Sedu iron after weeks of deciding which flat iron to purchase. I previously owned 2 Chi's and they are both broken so I decided to try the Sedu. It functioned properly for the first 3 months and then one day it mysteriously stopped working. This iron has never been dropped. The cord is kept completely straight. (I am fanatical about the care of my flat irons). Today I am mailing back my broken Sedu to folica with my payment of $9.95. I am hoping that Folica can make this situation right.
Pretty Good

Didnt pull hair. Shiny outcome. My only complaint is that it didnt hold the hair tight enough and that affected the outcome of staighter hair.

I like it, but after using my sister's I knew mine wasnt up to par. Maybe a bad apple in the bunch. Didn't pull hair. Shiny outcome. My only complaint is that it didnt hold the hair tight enough and that affected the outcome of staighter hair.
owned 2, cord shorts out, but nice when it works

My husband bought me this flat iron and I absolutely love it...when it is new. I have been through two of these flat irons in a year and a half (the first one was covered under the then one-year warranty...I am giving up getting another replacement). While I love the performance of it when it is working, I am going to another brand. It did work nicely, make my hair soft and got sufficiently hot. It would be perfect if it lasted more than 9 or 10 months (I used it once a day 5 days a week).
3 Years and still going strong!!!

Sedu is the BEST!!! I bought this straightner a little over 3 years ago and Oh Boy has it been through alot. From being dropped to stepped on, the plug itself is cracked and has been for a year now and the straigtner still works perfectly. The outside gets a little hot but I dont mind it. I've recommended this product to many of my friends and everytime someone they know uses theirs I get a phone call asking "What's the name of that website you ordered my straigtner from?" Everyone that uses it ditches whatever their using then and orders this one. AMAZING!!! Order it, you wont be disappointed!! I Promise!!
Average at Best

Based on the other consumer opinions I thought this Flat Iron would be great but it doesn't straighten my hair well at all. It says it gets to 400 degrees but it doesn't feel like it gets any hotter from 200 to 400 degrees. All about the same. I would not purchase this Iron again.
questioned it but now i know

For one thing I can say it does straighten your hair straight...seems important right? But for how long? This was the factor that was really important to me because most straightners can easily do that but which could make it stay lasting...it was not the sedu unfortuntately. I have gone through many reviews thinking that this would be without a doubt a product that was worth my money when orignally I should have just bought a chi which is a product I am already familar with and knows works. I am alittle sad because I did have high expectations when I made the decision to purchase the sedu. The positives are that it has a control setting, very very light weight, and it does a good job in straightening but...does not stay for long throughout the day my main thing I was looking for. Bye Bye Hope you make someone else happy you didn't for me.
The BEST Flat Iron that I have ever found!!!

I use the SEDU 1" flat iron on my ethnic kinky curly unruly shoulder length hair and it controls it....for days! My hair is shiny and beautiful! I adjust the heat according to how flat I want my hair to be. Even my hair designer loves it! My daughter has hair like mine, only it's long, down her back. She uses the larger one and loves it to death! Even her hair designer ordered one! She loves it too! My favorate things about the SEDU is the super long cord and fast heating element. The plates are flat, they touch and heat evenly. (I touched them to make sure. Ouch! I had to touch them, I'm an engineer.) I can tell you, this tool is designed and built well. Why didn't I ever think of this? And price is wonderful. I was spending a small fortune replacing jumbo curling irons, hot rollers and flat irons for my self and my daughters....now I am saving a great deal of money! BUY this product. It's well worth it!
it's ok

I bought this flat iron expecting miracles. I mean, look at the reviews. The Sedu Flat Iron is overrated. It straightened my hair yes, made it soft yes, cut down my time (by like 5-10 minutes) yes. But the thing is, all straighteners do this including the cheapo's from walmart. Did it prevent damage? Hell no, even with a heat protectant AND leave in conditioner! My ends split, and turned white. I like this straightener, but I wouldn't over do it.

I had my sedu flat iron for about a year and the cord became loose after a while. I tried to exchange it for another one at the authorized sedu salon retailer, but they don't offer warranty! I love my sedu, but after a year it wasn't up to part. I recommend researching before you purchase a new straightening iron.

I LOVE THIS IRON!!!! It works great. . . when it's working. I've had to send back 2 of the irons because they quit on me. I'm a cosmetologist and it's very frustrating, in the middle of a long work day, when my #1 tool stops working. I do love the Sedu, I just wish it was made better.
good, but could be better

okay so i got my sedu around christmas.
but before that i owned a remmington wet to straight and a
conair infiniti. both of them were horrible. so i decided
to buy a new straightener to save my hair. and gotta say,
it has horrible shipping.it was supposed to some in 5
buisness days but came in 10. very slow.
so when i got it, i was so excited. i tried it out and
guess what? it wasn't that amazing. it straightened my
hair just the same and had more split ends. ick. so right
now my hair is dead. i recommend you dotn buy this but a
herstyler instead. i heard from someone it works better.
Fantastic!

I was a little skeptical about purchasing this item at first, I had too do a lot of review reading before i considered being one of the thousands who have also purchased this item, but when i got a chance to use it, i have too say that i was very pleased with the results! It made my hair so nice and straight and soft, and took hardly any effort at all to do my hair, and being a woman of color with a lot of hair, i was very impressed. Fantastic!
Excellent Flat Iron

this iron is really great! i'm really into taking care of my hair & this product keeps it healthy. i have loads of curly hair that frizzes up in this extremely humid south texas weather. anyway, my hair looks fine all day long. =D i took the iron to a trip & all the girls wanted to use it. it took less time & had great results. even our sponsor (a hairdresser for x number of years, asked to borrow it). they asked me where i got it & whatnot. if it makes my hair feel really good, i'm sure it'll work on yours.
i used the chi (& other cheap stuff) before this one & my hair was kind of stiff, stick out & overall weird.
sedu > chi. =)
OK

I loved my solia flat iron, that is until the day the powercord detached itself from the iron. That happened after only a year of use, I was very disappointed.
This iron seems sturdier, but you have to take more time to straighten your hair. My hair has only a slight wave, but I like it stick straight. I also feel like this iron damages my hair a lot more than the solia one did.
All in all its a so-so iron, I would recommend trying something else.

I bought this iron for my 14 and 7 yr old girls. We love it!
It heats up quickly & having the temperature controls is a real plus. The iron is easy to use and gives your hair a very nice silky, finished look. We'd buy this product again!

Never have used a flat iron, I read reviews and compared and decided on this one. It worked great. I took it into my trusted hair stylist and she showed me different style and she loved it sooo much she decided to buy one for herself. She noted the extra long cord and how smooth the plate was on your hair. I would definetely recommend this for the money. GREAT PRODUCT!
WOW!

This is the best Flat Iron ever period! I am African American and I was 5 weeks into having a relaxer trying to hold out til week six when I recieved my Sedu. I am currently deployed so it is hot and I sweat often and I also go to the gym alot so my hair curls up quickly. I used my new flat iorn and I was amazed at the results. One guy even asked me if i had just gotten a relaxer and i laughed knowing that I really needed one. This is a truly great flat iron my only wish is that it had a curved edge so i could use it for big curls as with my old flat iron. Either way I am happy definatly worth the price!

Definitely best results with use of a hair product made specifically for straightening. I use the aveda humid resistant hair cream with produce a nice smell, sleekness and shine even after multiple straightening sessions. Sedu does not burn off hair products or hair!!!! Just use directed and DO NOT OVERHEAT. If needed, just glide over slower.
Sedu is a great product, no burned hair smells or break downs like the chi.
Must buy for all levels of advances and hair types!
