This is a great flat iron. I have used others such as the Superstar and the Chi, and this iron is just as good if not better. After using it my hair is as straight as can be and stays that way no matter what the weather is like outside. My hair still looks healthy and feels great. I highly reccommend...especially with the great price!

Very Good Straightener

For a straightener it's very good not for curling. But I have really really coarse thick, curly hair and it really feels like i just blow dried it. I don't like my ends so I have to get a curling iron to flip them in. But overall I believe if it can straighten my thick hispanic hair it can straighten any hair. I used mine at 390 degrees. If any one is hesitant I would say buy it. But don't expect a miracle. It took me a long time but I think it's because it was my first time. Overall I'm happy with my purchase. Good luck to those who are looking for the perfect straightener. This is the closest I think it gets. : )

I bought this December of 07 and I love it. =) I was really nervous at first because it was my first straightener, and I was unsure on spending such a large amount.. especially after reading some of the negative feedback about how it died in just a few months.. It's nearly September of '08 and it's still working as new. =) I have thick hair and it takes me about.. maybe 10 minutes to straighten my hair, 15 at the most which is rare.

I love this flat iron!!! This is the third iron I have owned and by far the best. It is very lightweight and the perfect width (1 1/2) since my hair is past shoulder length. It heats very quickly and glides so smoothly through my hair. It only took minutes to have perfect straight hair. The shipping was also awesome - only two days to receive it!
Long lasting

I have had my Sedu for a little over 3 years now and it still works great! I use it almost daily. I can't believe it's lasted this long. My favorite thing about this straightener is that it does not pull or break your hair. I got on here to look for a 1" because I just cut my hair off and the 1 1/2" is a little too big. I was looking at a Chi, but after reading those reviews, I will stick with the Sedu.
better than most but not the best out there

i've had this straightener for a little over a year now, and for the most part it worked fine. however, compared to the chi straightener, it doesn't straighten as well and doesn't get that hot either. all around it's a good straightener but not like the best straightener ever. for a hundred bucks i don't think it's worth it.
so after a year, mine broke.. it just won't turn on and the warranty is up, so i have to find a new straightener. this past year i took great care of it and handled with gentle care, so i'm pretty bummed.
i will admit it never tugged my hair or gave me too many split ends, but it doesn't straighten as good as some of the others, but i guess that's a good trade off.....
Just one word....WOW

Okay so I have the most thick and curly hair! It would take me 2.5 hours to straighten my hair with a 1 inch Solia, but with this sedu it took 45 minutes! I was shocked!! The reason why I bought this straightener was because of all the great reviews so now I'm leaving one. Dont think twice about it, buy it! It's worth every penny!!!

I have been straightening my hair for 7 years. I've tried about EVERYTHING. From those cheap straighteners at Walmart to Chi's. I thought Chi was the best until a year passed and it died. I did my research and asked for the Sedu for Christmas. When I tried it out, it was soo much better than the Chi. It felt really cheap but when I used it, it was great! It's so much lighter then the Chi and therefor makes it easier to straighten my hair. My hair is VERY thick and curly and takes 1 hour to straighten with the Sedu. The Chi took 2 1/2 hours.
Great Iron...Wish it lasted

This is by far my favorite straightener that i have ever used...i own a Chi and it doesnt even compare to the Sedu. However...I have owned 2 Sedu's and both times the cord shorted out after less than 6 months. To me, that is not worth the money i paid. I love the straightener and would consider ordering it again if I knew that i wouldnt need a new one after 5 months. I have thick hair that is curly/wavy and it really works great. Too bad it doesnt last.
pretty good..

umm i think this iron is better on dark, courser hair.
i was disappointed with my own results compared to the reviews here..
i think i should've gotten a CHI, because my hair isn't even that soft or shiny compared to my old straightener. on the other hand, my hair's pretty dang straight and it does feel healthy. i just don't think it's as good as the hype on this site makes it out to be.
QUDDUS TO SEDU!!!!!!

This is my first time splurging on a hair tool, after reading the reviews I felt like making the risk and getting the Sedu flat-iron. Now, I have long hair (all the way down to the end of my back) and it's curly, and without intensive use of hair products it's VERY FRIZZY. I had given up on straightening my hair on regular basis and left doing that for special occasions when I wanted to impress and what not. It would take me 3-4 HOURS straightening my hair (not exaggerating!) because I have to blow dry-it straight (layer by layer) and then go over it with a flat iron (also layer by layer) and my hair is thick too, so you can imagine how many layers I have to go over. By the time I'm done, I seriously go lay down because I get so tired of standing and having my arms up in the air for so long. Anyway, I considered this flat-iron an experiment, so I took a shower, dried my hair with a towel (THE ENEMY OF CURLY HAIR!), put a quarter size amount of anti-frizz polishing milk (only because I wanted to protect my hair from the heat..not to smooth it!), and I let my hair AIR-DRY to let it get as frizzy as possible. Once it was dry, I turned on the flat-iron and went upstairs to grab a hair brush, I came down, looked at it and was shocked that it was ALREADY HOT! (it was like 20 seconds..and I had it on about 370 degrees!!!). Then I began to straighten my hair as I normally do it, small sections and layer by layer. IT SERIOUSLY TOOK ME 45 MINUTES (it would literally be less than 40 minutes..if you take out the time I took separating my hair and brushing the hair sections in between and all that!). I am IN COMPLETE DISBELIEF..it took me 40 MINUTES TO STRAIGHTEN MY HAIR, and I say it STRAIGHTENED, I mean it was PIN-STRAIGHT, and SUPER-SHINY too!!!!!!..I looooooove this iron it has done a miracle for me tonight. I had to go over each hair section only once to straighten it, and my hair didn't get caught between the plates or any of that, it was a BREEZE!!!. I will so say good-bye to the old days when I had to literally SCHEDULE A DAY for straightening my hair. Now I can show off my long, thick, black hair whenever I want. BUY THIS IT'S WORTH EVERY PENNY OF THE $115!!!!

My hair is thick, curly. I bought couple hair strighteners from different department stores. Non of them worked.I trashed them. I love Folica it really makes my hair nice and silky and the most important it straightens it perfectly. It does not destroy my hair. I love it , love it. Don't waste your money on over the counter hair straighteners.
Sedu Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat Iron (1 1/2")is easy to use and I love the heat adjusting button. I love the long electrical cord. I can get out of my bathroom and watch TV while I am straightening my hair.
Definitely worth what I paid for.
Died after 4 months!

When I first read all the reviews about the Sedu, I knew I had to get one. My hair was long, FRIZZY, and in desperate need of a good flat iron. I decided to bite the bullet and pay the $115. BIG MISTAKE!!! At first it worked perfectly-- gave me the smooth, sleek, straight look I craved. But after about 4 months of use, it died for no apparent reason. I only used it about 3 times a week, and I took excellent care of it. The only reason this deserves 2 stars is because it worked well when it still worked! Now I own a Remington Wet2Straight and it works almost as well for a fifth of the price!
Great product...but

I want to give it 5 star. Because its everything good other reviewers are talking about. I feel like I'm born with straight hair.. hair becomes so soft and shiny, doesn't damage hair, takes less time, hair stays straight longer (if you can stay out of shower that is :)). But will give it 4 star for right now, just 'cause - my Sedu stopped working after 10 months. I read a review which said somebody is using it from 3 years. I do really want to believe that mine was just a faulty piece. But I'm gonna come back give it a 5 star when I use my replacement Sedu from Folica for more than a year. And Folica has been good as well. Prompt, good customer service.
Excellent

If I could be in love with a flat iron, this would be it. I promise you won't be disappointed. I've had mine for years and it simply works the best and actually has made my hair healthier - it's the ionic component for sure. Just ceramic flat irons would dry out my hair. Cuts flat ironing time in half at least because it straightens in one swipe. ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT!

If you are looking for an awesome flat iron look no further. Purchase a Sedu. You'll love it! I would highly recommend purchasing a Sedu if you want super straight, sleek, smooth, soft, shiny, sexy, healthy hair. I know it seems kind of expensive but it's totally worth it. It is a great investment if you straighten you hair daily. It's much less damaging to your hair that those other cheapo flat irons. Plus they break right away. The Sedu does not pull on my hair at all and I love that the tempurature is adjustable. Since using the Sedu my hair has become much healthier, shinier, and I have way less split ends. I have been using the Sedu for about 4 months now. I had admired it for about 6 months and debated about getting it. The reviews seemed to good to be true. I decided to go for it based on the great reviews and give it a try. I am so glad that I did. It is one of the best purchases that I have ever made for my hair. Even my hair stylist was amazed in the difference it made on my hair. She now wants a Sedu. Every one that tries mine wants one. I wish I would have known about the Sedu a long time ago. All these years I've been damaging my hair and I could have been Sedu-ing my hair.
