What customers say about "Key Specs"
Conair CD213 Fashion Curl Curling Iron
  • Has a nice long cord.
  • Curls come out very uniform and last a long time.
  • I really like it cool idea. Just make sure you let it heat up really good/long first.
  • It will only take small strands at a time. This does not consume as much extra time as you might think, though, because the automatic winding mechanism is faster than manually winding the curl around a traditional wand (at least, in my inexpert hands).
  • The curling iron is designed so that you can't start the curl very close to your scalp.
Conair CD212AM Infiniti Pro Curling Iron with Rotating Clamp
  • Just what I expected! I'm not very good at using styling tools and I find this one easy for me to handle and come out looking great.
  • This curling iron heats up fast and works great. It's survived months of daily use.
  • The cord is still intact, too, and hasn't work from being moved while curling.
  • My hair is very fine and shoulder length and I've never found a curling iron that was simple for me to handle and left my hair "curled" for longer than an hour or so, but this is the best I've owned.
  • This curling iron works well on my hair type (fine), and my hair stays curled for most of the day with just a little mouse used before drying.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Conair CD213 Fashion Curl Curling Iron
  • It's light-weight and didn't feel heavy even with curling lots of hair.
  • Great price too, and love the color options, easy to store.
  • It is even made with a flimsy plastic, but by golly it's a hot fashion color and looks down right trendy.
  • I could not identify a way of varying the size/tightness of the curl. Again, that may just be my relative lack of experience.
  • Its so light weight and just seems cheap but it does curl just fine.
Conair CD212AM Infiniti Pro Curling Iron with Rotating Clamp
  • It's light-weight and feels comfortable & balanced to hold.
  • It's not a slender iron, the extra controls make it somewhat bulky, but it's not heavy.

What customers say about "Details"
Conair CD213 Fashion Curl Curling Iron
  • It heats up VERY quickly; I didn't time it, but it was definitely ready to go in less than a minute.
  • Beeps to let you know it is time to release clamp.
  • Two heat settings for how tight you want curls.
  • The amount of heat is too much which is good.
  • I'm not sure it is that much faster than the wand I normally use, but it is definitely easier and practically foolproof as long as the hair is brushed and in small enough sections.
Conair CD212AM Infiniti Pro Curling Iron with Rotating Clamp
  • It's already done a better job than the much more expensive iron I purchased previously. I also love the color!
  • The curls last for hours, and my hair doesn't even hold curl well.
  • I love this curling iron!:) I have short hair and kind of thin as well and it worked great! It heats up very fast and very easy handling.
  • The iron gets very hot, even on the low setting and unless you are very careful, you can burn your hand or fingers.
  • It is very well made, but as others have suggested, the clamp doesn't always hold my hair.
