I absolutely love my T3 flat iron! It's just a tab bit longer than my old flat iron, so it will not fit into the bag my old one fit into, but will just have to find a new bag. Not a deal breaker. I can iron/style my hair quickly every time and don't feel like I am frying it. That's due to being able to adjust the heat setting where I was not able to do that with my old iron. Definately makes a difference.
