I bought this flat iron about 1 1/2 years ago. It worked pretty good until lately. It really started to stink when it was turned on. I think something disconnected. Now, one plate does not heat up and it makes a crackling sound. I am going to buy a Solia this time.
Its excellent

I bought my Saphire sometime ago and it doesn't compare to any other flat iron. I have used others and always feel that my Saphire is by far the best!!
I have total confidence in Saphire!!
i will buy again.
Good

Worked really well as long as the comb part is on the bottom of the iron as it goes through your hair, otherwise it gets stuck in your hair. It is ideal for long hair, too big to get the roots straight.

Excellent product. Heats quickly and just one setting so don't have to mess with temps. Removeable comb is a nice addition. Lightweight so easy to handle. Straightens my hair in minutes, and can do several layers at once. 21/4 not a good size for my daughter's short hair, but for my shoulder-length hair, it's perfect! And the free shipping from Folica was a wonderful bonus!
This flat iron rocks!!!

I have previously purchased this same iron (from Folica) about 2 years ago. It is absolutley fabulous. Since then, my best friend is constantly using it weekly, so I purchased this for her birthday. Mine is still in excellent working condition even though I pretty much use it daily. It leaves your hair shiny, soft, and stick straight ~ even through humidity! My friends hair is fairly thick and wavy, and this iron straightens it perfectly, and it only takes a couple minutes. I recommend this iron to anyone looking for the perfect straightener for ANY hair type, and at a fair price too.
Good

It was bigger than I realized. It straightens my hair with one sweap, but tends to make my hair a little flatter than I would like. Over all it is a nice straightner.
Our second one!

Our first flat iron went to school with my daugher a few weeks ago and we could not live without it so we bought the exact same one. It provides sleek hair that shimmers and is super straight - even from my younger daughters massive waves. Watch out though - it gets very hot!
Solano Straightener

This straightener is not worth the $120 that I paid for it. It takes a long time to heat up. It takes a while to get my hair straight, and then when I go outside my hair usually becomes wavy and frizzy again. I would reccomend a straightener that is ceramic and has a temperature control instead of this one.

I first used this flat iron two years ago, and at the time, it seemed to be the best one out there. After using my roommates ceramic one, however, I realized that the solano does not work as well. The solano still does a pretty good job, but i would recommend a ceramic one instead.
great results, good price

I am very satisfied with this flat iron. I have very thick, long, color-treated hair which I have struggled with straightening for some time. This iron saves me tons of time, while making my hair appear healthy and frizz-free. Due to the plate width, it does take a little more work to get to the roots. Bottom line- definitely worth the investment.
My hair loves this flat iron!!!

I've must have spent a million dollars on hair products to make my hair straight. But finally, a co-worker told me about the Solano Sapphire and I bought it immediately and have been straightening my hair every day! It used to take one hour to do my hair but now I'm down to 30 minutes. It really has been a life saver for my confidence. Once you get used to working with this flat iron, the possibilities are endless to the styles you can achieve. This was an excellent investment, I love it!!!
Worth the investment

This iron is incredible and is definitely worth the investment. You'll be glad you didn't throw your money away on another worthless $30 iron. I love it.

Ive have pretty fine and easy to manage hair and ive had about three of these irons because after a while they just wear out. the design is also really hard to get used to and sometimes hair gets stuck where the two parts cross the striaghteners that are shaped like a v instead of an x like this one are better. After using my sister and friends chi's and other brands that are around the same price, i realized it was time for me to get a new brand, you can do much better for your money.
WORTH IT =)

Folica is a great and easy place to do business with. I received the product very quickly and it was shipped very nice and safe. I found the product for a little less on another website 3-4 days after my purchase and Folica refunded the difference to me without any hesitation and very quickly.
I highly recommend this particular flat iron over any other that I have tried. Folica is great and I will definitely use them again.
NOT WORTH IT

I had this iron for about two years. My hair would always get stuck in the joint where the two plates come together... very painful as it ripped out a few stands. Also, it burned our countertop when it fell over on its side (v side down), so be careful to keep it balanced up.
