Was looking for an affordable and effective flat iron that was wide and light enough to straighten my 16-18inch hair and this was what the doctor ordered.
Smaller 1inch and 1-1/4inch flat irons take forever to smooth out long tresses. At 2.5inches this iron definitely gets the work done in half the time. It
It's porcelain plates glides over ones hair effortlessly and it made my hair super straight, silky and shiny. It has different settings, so don't worry about frying your hair.
Also, The iron works really well with hair extensions( silky, wet and wavy and body waves) and all types of coarse hair.
It's a very effective and inexpensive ( well not as expensive as the Chi's and the FHI's) product and it looks more expensive than it costs and more importantly does a superb job. Don't hesitate to get it if you have long hair and cant stand using those itty bitty 1 inch contraptions.

So, after reading all of the excellent reviews on this iron, I purchased it. The item arrived in a timely manner, and I was excited. I opened the box and took the iron out of its packaging. When 'trying out' the iron in my hands, I noticed that the plates do not close all the way when you clamp down. :/ The front end was the only spot the plates touched together. The rest of their length was left open by at least a full centimeter. I can see how it would straighten thick, coarse hair just fine. But for my own fine/thin strands, there is just no way this iron could get the job done. So sad. Especially because return shipping is going to be at least $10, so it's like paying $14 just to find out a product doesn't work for you. Ridiculous. I'm entirely bummed.

Ater reading all the reviews, I was excited to finaly buy a flat iron that worked for a reasonable price. CAUTION!!!!! After I used it a couple of times it was great but the third time I used it on my niece's hair, when I was finishing it burned a small piece of hair off and the plates melted. The flat iron was smoking!!!! I had also purchased the babyliss 2000 at the same time and noticed the blow dryer attachement piece had melted also!!! The company said they will send me a refund that the flat iron had malfunctioned by overheating and they believe it was an isolated incident. The blow dryer is still being investigated as to why it melted the attachment piece. I strongly encourage anyone who has an experience like mine to make sure they put it in writing as I did because when I initially called they simply said "oh, do u want a replacement" like it was normal for a flat iron to smoke and the plates to melt. Not to mention a small piece of my nieces hair burned off! Thank goodness I caught it in time. I don't want anyone to experince the same thing or even a worse situation!! SO PLEASE CAUTION!!!!
Honest reviews on BaByliss Pro BABP2559 Porcelain Ceramic Flat Iron, Silver/Black
I absolutely love this flat iron. I have had a few over the years but this is the best iron ever. I have really thick hair and this iron allowed me to flat iron my entire head in less than 20 minutes. It allows me to wash my hair and let it air dry and then I flat iron it with this iron and it leaves my hair straight, silky and light. I have had so many compliments on how healthy my hair is and how good it looks from using this iron. This is the best investment you will ever make. My friend paid over $100 for hers and I got mine for $29.99 and it is the best flat iron around.

bought it because i saw the reviews from you guys, skeptically i got it with the understanding that i would send it back to Amazon in case it didn't work... sorry amazon, i'm keeping it... but i think its better to have someone iron your hair for you just so he/she can blow that hot steam away.
i recently decided not to perm my hair anymore, so my hair is back to natural,ie.. very coarse and hairy ha ha ha yes i'm black... i love the way my hair feels its just that combing takes time and sometimes hurts and after a while my hair gets puffy and very very curly... i look like i got a big cotton on top of my head i actually dont need a pillow ha!
i received this iron on 4/14/10 used it on the same day, wish i could send the pics to make believers out of you... dramatic differences from before..i started braiding my hair last year and just cut off all the permed hair so it was only the new hair that i had my sis ironed for me... she's going to buy one too... we were amazed: one minute it was hard to comb my hair, and the next even those small combs went through with no problem... one problem for the 400F-450F do not comb until the hair is cool (they actually said that) but i didn't listen and it melted my beautiful little comb...
okay thats it... i hope i was helpful, because you guys were very helpful to me
