I can honestly say that these straighteners gave me better results than the ones I paid 3 times the price for ! The controls were simple and clear to use. The temperature control is a great function, and the straighteners got to temperature very quickly I liked the lock function to keep them closed when not in use, but this then confused me a little as they came with a silicone cover to slide over the top of the closed straighteners. In my opinion, I would rather this silicone had been used to make a surface protector mat to put the straighteners on whist heating, using and cooling as they don't need to be hold closed thanks to the lock.

The design of the hair straightener is slick and I like the temperature display. The straightener is easy to use and glides along my hair for a straight smooth finish. I have very thick hair so I love the ability to change the temperature settings. The silicone slip is a great addition to prevent the tool from transferring heat onto surfaces. As someone with long thick hair I prefer a wide plate but this straightener will suit most hair types to achieve the desired finish.

Remington’s new Illusion hair straightener brings easy to hair styling. With different temperature settings, manual on/off switch and safety options, it glides through even really think hair with minimum effort. Would highly recommend. It does get really hot, so careful with leaving it to cool on benches and around little hands.
