MonicaGreatI have had this model with the floating plates for probably 4 years now. Like another reviewer, mine now will only work when the cord is in a certain position. Now trying to decide what to replace it with. Mine was not $150 when I bought it so I'm not sure I want to spend that much now. Was great while it lasted; have no complaints on the performance.posted Jan 19, 2010Link to this post

CristinaUkiah, Ca 95482Best Flat Iron Ever!!!I had my SuperStar for 5 years! it finally busted and it was because I dropped it for the 100th time and it broke! It was the best friend to ever had when I had a bad hair day! No I'm going to buy the same exact one as soon as i save up money! It is so worth it!posted Nov 30, 2009Link to this post

JamieGrand Rapids, MichiganHairCurly HairNo Others Can Compare!After six years or so, my Superstar flat iron has finally started to bite the dust. It still straightens perfectly, but the power wont stay on unless the cord is held at a particular angle in a particular spot. I was hoping to find something a bit cheaper than the Superstar, so I started experimenting with other less costly (but still highly rated) professional quality irons. Quite frankly, none of them come even remotely close to matching the performance of the Superstar. My ancient Superstar only heats up to 400 F, but still straightens more quickly than the others Ive tried that allow higher temperatures. The swivel cord turns smoothly and easily, and even when my super curly hair is at its longest, I can straighten it in under 20 minutes. It heats up quickly and doesnt pull my hair like some of the other straighteners. After buying (and returning!) a couple other flat irons and trying out a few of my friends irons, I can honestly say that Ive yet to find one that holds a candle to the Superstar.However, one thing Ive noticed is that the description for the newer "original" Superstar iron says that it has "self-leveling floating plates." My old Superstar doesnt have these, and since I have never met a "floating plate" iron that Ive liked, Im reluctant to buy this newer version. If you have no issues with floating plates, however, and are looking for a flat iron that will last ages (at least as far as hair straighteners are concerned!) and straightens better than most other professional quality irons, I highly recommend the Superstar!posted May 27, 2009Link to this post

Dcs930Baton Rouge, LABetter Than Other Ones I HadMy friend gave me this as a loaner when she had it refurbished. I loved it more than the other POSs (Conair, Jilbere) I had. After 6 months in my possession (1.5 years in my friends possesion) it is not as hot as 450 degrees. And recently a plate became loose. I think we got our $120 worth out of it, actually! I use it everyday, and it did what it needed to do. Nothing last forever!posted May 1, 2009Link to this post
