Recommend your flat iron...
I'm sure this has been asked before but, well we all know how that goes...
I currently have a Chi, it is on it's very last leg. It first broke about a year after I got it, DH fixed it, it worked another year now it's breaking again, so I'm not sure I want to spend the $ on another one. Anyone have a different brand to recommend? Bonus points if it works as well as the Chi but costs less!
My big boy is bounding towards 3! Hoping to add a sibling.

Hipster dog is not impressed.
Re: Recommend your flat iron...
I have a Croc and LOVE it. It's what Andre uses. There's temp settings, which my old chi didn't have and so I don't use the highest.

I have the Paul Mitchell and love it. I've had it for 3 years and it's still going strong!
I have a PM as well and IMO, it kicks butt compared to any other one I've had. I love, love, love my PM.

I had a Chi a long time ago, but wasn't impressed. DH bought me this one for Christmas a couple years ago from Target and I really like it. Plus it's pink
ETA: mine is pink, this one is purple.
about a year and a half ago, mine crapped out. Don't even remember what it was and I'm too cheap to buy a CHI.
I went to Sally's and they were having a sale so I bought a Helen of Troy flat iron and got the hair dryer for free or vice versa.
Paul Mitchell by far.
They are $80 at the pro supply. Let me know if you want me to get you one.
