The straightener worked well the first two weeks after I bought it, and then it started to fall apart!

this iron is great. my hair is pretty thick, and with the iron it only takes me about 5 minutes to do my entire head. i find that this iron goes smoothly over my hair and doesnt completly fry it. true its a bit large but it covers more faster. i have had one for about 6 months, some of the prongs on the comb broke but the iron still works great. i love it.
best hair straightener ever

I'm really enjoying this product. I had paid almost 300.00 for a bio ionic hair straightner, and i had to send it back because i did not work as well as the solano. I'm very satisfied. Thank You
Too Bulky

I find it to be too bulky to manage. It also gets really hot. Maybe I don't know how to manipulate it yet.
love it

Great Concept - Poorer Quality than I Expected

I purchased 3 of the original, professional Sapphire Flat Irons from Gene Juarez over the last couple of years (one for me, one for my sister and the other for a friend). They ROCK!! My mother recently wanted one too, but Gene Juarez no longer sells THAT type, so I shopped online. This is not the original model. It's your standard/average flat iron, but it works well. The plastic, on/off switch and durability is of FAR LESS QUALITY than the ones I previously purchased from the hair solon. I admit I was disappointed.

The Flat Iron That Works Wonders

The Solano Sapphire Flat Iron is great. It leaves my hair super straight, soft, and shiny. I live in Miami and humidity is always a big issue but not with this flat iron, it works wonders. You can't go wrong with this iron, it worth paying the $89.00 dollar and the best part about is that shipping is free.
Thanks Folica - Your service is excellent.

I have tried so many irons and nothing beats this classic. Yes, it is a bit big, but you can do bigger sections of hair quicker. It's the biggest secret weapon in the fashion and film industry! The comb is what makes you get such a smooth result. It helps get out the kinks as you iron, something other irons don't have. Wonderful for quick jobs! I have had mine for about 4 years and never had a problem with it working or sparks like others have written. I've dropped it and abused it at times and it still keeps on trucking! I also got the small one for traveling....LOVE IT!
Great but short lived

I got this straightener about a year and a half ago and it did a wonderful job at first. After about a year, though, it seemed to take much longer to heat up and recently the wire has been shorting. Still, I think the money has been worth it and I'll probably buy another.
I love the extra-smooth plates---it gets EXTREMELY HOT
Reviewer:

I bought this iron a few months ago. So far, I really like it. The plates are MUCH smoother than regular ceramic irons that I've tried. I am a hair stylist and I use this iron on some of my clients. The only thing is, I've noticed it slightly burns the hair on the ends. However, I realized that by not minimal pressure, the ends won't burn but it will still straighten nicely. Overall, it's a great iron and I would recommend it for the professional hair stylist.
I'v had it for about 4 years

I have had this iron for probably four years and it still hasnt fallen apart. for those of you who have said that it spits balls of fire and loses bolts, you probably throw it around and dont take care of it. i like it and have had no problems with it.

I have curly hair and the humidity in south florida is pretty intense. This iron works wonders that last until you wash your hair out. It leaves the hair stick straight and super shiny. I would recommend it to anyone. I am however on my second iron because my first one gave out after about a year, but it is definitely good enough for me to buy another. Rating this product based on ability to staighten, take away frizz, and maintain the effects, I would have to give it excellent reviews.
I loved it, but it broke

I have had this straightening iron for a little over a year. This morning, I heard a huge pop, and a little ball of fire came off of it. Not too safe I don't think. Anyway, I would love to tell you to get it, but only if you would LOVE to burn your house down.
Very Good Iron

My best friend is a manager of one of the top salons in the country, and got me this iron after I got the Japanese Hair Straightening done. It straightens my hair better than any iron I have ever used so far, even now a year and a half later with all of the new growth and waves that have come in. But, the iron is big, heavy and unweildy. Very hard to maneuver. Since it is so clumsy and gets so hot, I have occasionally burned my forehead with it, which causes a big sore and scab that takes weeks to heal. Also, my hair has been getting caught in the plates. I am looking at this site, and I think my next iron will be the Sedu based upon the reviews it got and the fact that it is light and easy to handle.
problems happened after having it only 6 months

i had this straightener for 6 months. my hair is thick and long and wavy, it worked well at first. after a short amount of time, the bolt fell out, thus completely runing the straightener, ( just like i read in other customer reveiws - take a hint -- it will happen to you! ) and the plates lost so much of their heat. i have owned so many cheaper irons that worked better. however, i definitely think although the iron is cheap , spend a little more and get something better like the bion, ( solia too) . the solano's one advantage is how smooth the plates are; other than that the power to tame frizzy hair (and keep it straight!!) just isn't there. ( especially if you aren't willing to replace it anytime soon)
Love It!

Just got this iron about 3 days ago and I love the way my hair looks and feels. I have been getting compliments on my hair and people even think I have changed my style. This iron does straighten your hair much better than others and it does look just like I came out of the salon. I will agree with another review; the handle does feel a little clumsy and takes some getting used to holding. My previous iron was by Hot Tools and the handle was better contoured to the shape of your hand.
