I am the kind of person who will splurge on cosmetics and beauty products and feel it's worth it so I don't necessarily look for the bargain buy in this area but the best working product.
Fortunately, this curling iron is not only priced well for the value, it beats out the "old school" curling irons I've used for the last 30 years.
I actually bought mine at Walgreens for a higher price after reading about it in a magazine.
Unlike any other iron I've used this one actually heats up in...wait for it....wait for it....30 SECONDS!!!
You can also choose your heat level from 1-15 but be leary of that 15---that is a scorcher.
However, some may be looking for that high of a heat. I keep it around the medium to medium high numbers and it curls in an instant. And I have uber thick hair.
Touch ups are instant rather than waiting for the iron to heat up. If I am going out and find I've missed a spot I can basically now instantly reheat the iron and have it hot 30 seconds after I turn it on.
Negative: I'm probaby odd in that I always hold my curling iron real close to the barrel. Because of this a few times I've accidentally turned the heat level without trying. Not a big deal, but something I'd change if I could to make the wheel maybe a little harder to turn.
Conclusion: tops in my book. I won't go back to the curling irons of the past where I have to wait for them to heat. Instant gratification, baby! :-)

OK, so after reading all of the reviews on this product my wife buys one. Well, in about 6 weeks the iron won't heat anymore. Sent it in got a new one because of the 2 year warranty (cost $10.00 for shipping & handling plus they wanted $3.00 for themselves). She used it about 4 months and then the little spring breaks. Having used other curling irons over the years and having had to replace the springs, we thought to call Conair and have them send us a replacement spring, about a $.10 item which takes about 60 seconds to replace. Well, they no longer sell the springs. The wanted to have us pack it up again and spend another $10.00 for shipping AND send them $3.00 to boot. Who are they kidding? What kind of service are they giving their customers. I will never buy another Conair product. I gave this product only one star because I couldn't go any lower.
Best Deals on Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron
Ive been doing hair for 24 years, ive spent up to 50 on high cost "salon professional" irons, and these are by far the BEST irons Ive come across. They last for several years of daily use. Unlike those high dollar others that burn out so fast. They have the high heat setting, 1-25, and an auto shut off system. They have an instant 30 second turbo heat up too. so they dont nee to be on all day in the holder burning themselve out. The cost is amazing...9.99 to 14.99 is the most ive paid for these ever. I'll die if they ever discontinue these. Ive been using and buying these now for over 8 years. Keep them coming they are the best@! Thanks for listening. I dont promote many products , but I truley endorse these irons. Once you try them, you'll be hooked. The low cost has me hooked to. GREAT PRODUCT!!!
Honest reviews on Conair Instant Heat Curling Iron
I needed a dual voltage curling iron and found this on Amazon. I had read that others found the temperature control move when they used it, but I didn't have that issue. It heats up very quickly and worked fine on the 220v in Brazil.

I picked up this curler in Wal Mart 10 years ago for about $12. It works wonderfully, heats fast, makes beautiful curls and doesn't snatch my hair out. I am a black woman with shoulder length hair and this curler straightens the hair from the root to the tip when I pull it through in small sections. I am then able to go back and curl it up for body and bounce. It gets hot!! When my first one broke after 3 years of use, I went out and spent $$$ on ceramic, gold n hot, and all types of overpriced styling tools. A few weeks and fuzzy hairstyles later I went back and copped my Conair Instant heat, and I was back in business. When I travel, I take these curlers, a silk scarf, satin rollers and my favorite moisturizer. That's all I need because I can straighten and curl with this. One last thing to add, ladies get some of the satin sponge rollers. After you make your body curls, keep them fresh with the satin sponge rollers, just wrap your curls around them and cover up. In the morning there is no need to curl again, you'll be good to go.
