The positive reviews as per the end users:
- The best hair straightener I’ve ever used!
- Great product at a very affordable price..
- In order to get great results, the heat settings doesn’t even have to be on the maximum
- I used to own a much more expensive iron, and this might be even better..
- I was impressed with the results since I have a ton of hair, and it did a really great job.
- My hair is frizz-free now for a whole day, unlike with my previous straightener
- I was shocked at how fast it sorted out my hair
- It got me the straight hair I wanted, but with tons of body and bounce left to my hair
- It heats up at a truly impressive speed
- It fixed my hair in like 6 minutes, and it’s so inexpensive, yet has all of the great options
- This iron has all of the buttons positioned nicely, is easy to use and fits right into your hand
- It leaves such a nice shine to your hair, yet it’s completely frizz-free..
- Totally worth the money
- The thing that I enjoy the most about this flattening iron is definitely all the compliments I’m getting now that I’ve switched to a new one.
- The design is smart; the iron is light and really easy to use
- I have extremely thick hair, some might even call it the lion’s mane, yet this hair straightener does wonders.
- I’ve always had a hard time finding the right iron for my coarse, thick, wavy hair, but I think that the search is over..
- My hair can now finally look like I’ve just came from the hairdresser’s, yet I did it all on my own..
- I really love that it beeps once it’s heated up and ready to use, and the digital monitor where you can read the temperature is pretty cool, too
- I like that I can straighten my hair in one go, so I don’t have to over one spot more than once, and I have a pretty thick hair
- Not only that it heats up really fast, but there are no spots that are hotter than the others, and it stays equally hot as well
- My hair is really as straight as I always wanted for the first time, without going to the hairstylist’s, but it’s still bouncy

Now for the negative reviews as per the end users – the CONS:
- It does nothing too special when compared to other Remington products I’ve used in the past..
- The Flattening Iron came in a box that was completely ordinary, no style whatsoever.. I’m a very big fan of good design in packaging, and this was not it
- After the first use the Remington logo rubbed off of the iron
- The product that was delivered to me came with a small chip on one of the plates, I’m waiting for a new one
- It could be just me but I found it difficult to hold
My final resume of this product:
After careful consideration and reading about this product, the first thing that popped into my head was that it’s a bargain.
It has all of the fancy, professional features and smart design of a more expensive flattening iron, does a perfect job at a small buck…
In all honesty, I’ve never used this product in particular in my hairstyling days, but I have colleagues that swear by it.
The thing that really caught my attention was the safety 60-min deactivation, because they have really thought everything through at Remington.
Also, the smart design really can’t hurt, and the digital temperature reader is- let’s face it- simply so very cool.
My final grade would be-passed with flying colors, it’s simply a very smart purchase, and it’s easy on the budget.
