RemingtonCeramic Hair Straightener - Slim longer length 110mm floating plates with Anti-static/Tourmaline Ionic coating for smooth glide, Fast 15 second heat up, Heat proof pouch, Up to 230°C, S3500

Amazing straighteners. My previous Remington straighteners packed up on Sunday. I didn’t realise there was an intermittent fault, thought it was me being cack handed and turning them on/off!! They’done well as they lasted on the cusp of 5 years, so no complaints and good value for money.Choosing a replacement model wasn’t easy. I didn’t want to spend a fortune, but wanted good quality. After reading all the reviews I selected these. They arrived next day.I have fine, wiry and naturally borderline Afro curls. A pain to maintain when wearing straight. Used the straighteners for the first time this morning and WOW my hair looks as though I’ve been to the salon before work!Absolutely delighted with these straighteners. They are slim, a good length plate and lightweight - lighter and slimmer than my previous Remingtons, making them easier to use. I would highly recommend these. I’d say a very close match to my original GHDs.

Fantastic Quality. We had for over a year, immediately gets hot, and glides smooth. Value for money.

I’ve always been a fan of Remington straighteners as I always had their Shine Therapy version.So when they died on me I was just going to get the same BUT in the last year my arms are considerably weaker as are my hands - seeing these are a lot lighter( 368 grams for former to 336 grams for these) and much quicker to heat up -15 seconds yup 15 seconds and they have a lovely dial that’s easy to use ( even if it’s in a weird place) it was a no brainer.The on & off switch is just brilliantly easy I can do it with my finger nail - for someone who is wanting to keep their independence I love this .The only thing I think is cheap & nasty is the case they provide - it’s made of felt and not all the quality of the Remington Shine Therapy white silky one ( which I kept to put these in) .The straighteners themselves are slim & have ceramic plates that can go from 150-230 so very powerful .The swivel for the cord is so easy you are not constantly having to correct it - my old ones, nice that they were did get stiff towards the end.All in all with the price being the same as I paid many years ago for my first Remingtons ,I’m looking forward to many years of use and would definitely recommend.I didn’t deduct a star for the case as to me the straighteners themselves make up for the shortfall of the case.

Having had to send my ghd's off for repair, I needed to get a cheap pair of straighteners while I was waiting for them to be returned. I picked these ones. The straighteners come with a handy felt case to put them in after using and it has a bit of velcro on, to hold the cord which is nicer than having the cord every where.The straighteners have a lock switch, which needs pushing in quite hard or they'll just open again. There's also an on/off switch rather than a button, this helps avoid accidently turning the things off. I also like the temperature control.When switching on, they heat up really quickly on the coolest setting, which is still quite hot as I stupidly caught my fingers on the plates. I did turn them up to the hottest setting after a bit, but turned them down again as I felt they were too hot for my hair. I've had a bad experience in the past with straighteners over heating and burning off a clump of my hair.Even though I didn't have them on full, they straightened my hair super quick! I'm not really one for sectioning my hair little bit by little bit, I'm a "straighten big clumps" kinda girl, so I was suprised at how quick it took and the result, especially as I usually end up with a natural kink, which is hard to straighten, still there. I didn't even have that.The only reason I didn't give 5 stars, is because of the smell. I'm sure all new straighteners have it, but the smell when they first heat up is quite strong, although it didn't make my hair smell. This might wear off with more use though.Will I go back to my ghd's when I get them back? To be honest, I'm not sure. I never thought I'd say that as I wasn't expecting anything amazing for £20 straighteners, but I'm very tempted to stick with these ones. I'll have to give them a few more uses then decide.UPDATE 11-1-2018I'm still using them and they're still working great. Over Christmas I took my ghd's to visit the family. They felt chunky and awkward compared to the Remington's.I'm also pleased to say, the smell has gone, so it must have just been a "new" smell you get with some products.One thing I will say is that it's easy to accidently turn up the heat on the Remington's, but you can get around that by holding them with the dial to the opposite side, so not really a problem.In conclusion, I'm sticking with these!EDIT 2 (20/11/2018)Over a year on and these are still going strong, still great and I've still not gone back to the GHD's.EDIT 3 (13/10/2019)I'm still using them! I still prefer these over my GHD's! At the price they are now, you'd be crazy to not get them!

Really are very good 👍Just wanted a cheap replacement pair and wow they are better than my previous and lighter ....curl and straighten perfectly and I have long hair .Well worth it !

Excellent quality works perfectly
