LOVE IT!

Excellent quality. I have never used a straightener that curls or straightens better than this one....as long as you know what you're doing (I recommend asking your stylist for some tips if you don't). I have noticed that some "gunk" from hair products can get stuck to the edges of the plates when I'm using it for flat iron curls... but you just have to clean it off every once in a while. I've used it at least 3-4 times a week for the past 2 months and I haven't noticed any crumbling. The ceramic plates on my straightener are intact and in nearly perfect condition after 2 months of medium-heavy use.
