HOT TOOLS New & Improved 24K Gold Professional Curling Iron with 1.5" Extended Cylinder and Clip for Loose Curls | 24K Gold Technology for Lasting Results & Cylinder Plus L

I’m a big fan of the Hot Tools Model 1102…but the OLDER version of this curling iron with the twist-knob temperature control, not this “newer” version with the push-button temperature control. My main problem with this newer model—and the reason I almost immediately stopped using it and went back to the older versions, and only pull this one out when my newer version is unavailable—is that the SWIVEL CORD IS USELESS. It doesn’t really swivel. That means that by my third curl, I’m trying to untangle the cord by holding the product upside down and letting it dangle, like we used to do back in the days of telephone cords—and all this does is slow me down in the morning when I’m trying to get ready, AND it adds to my stress/exasperation levels. Secondly, I do agree with the other low ratings that the wand seems to “catch” a little more on the hair than the older models do, though for me it’s still a darn good curling iron in that respect, because of the generous, non-heated tip at the end, which allows me to hold the wand at the end and control the “catch” without burning my fingers (this is the reason I switched to the Hot Tools 15 years ago—I was tired of burning my fingers on the wands of cheaper brands that didn’t have a large, non-heated tip)—so I do appreciate this aspect of this newer model. I also agree with the lower ratings that mention how the push-button control doesn’t seem user-friendly and is a bit confusing, though once I figured it out it seemed second-nature—but I will admit that there is NO second-guessing the turn-knob model. I gave it a one-star because I am trying to send a message to the company to DISCONTINUE ANY of the models that have this version’s issue with the swivel cord! Perhaps I simply bought the only swivel-cord lemon out there—but if this is a systemic problem with this version, I wanted the company, and the consumer, to know about it. Thank you! Other than this, it’s a great iron, in my opinion—that’s why I keep buying the older versions and I hope those remain available for a long time.

Doesn’t curl my hair AT ALL

Excelente producto

Me imagino que el producto cumple sus funciones pero esta ocasión me llego en las peores condiciones, pegajoso, sucio y en la parte del metal manchado

El producto llegó rapido y en perfecto estado. Estoy muy contenta con mi compra 💕
