These rollers curl really good! I have long thick hair, and it's hard to find rollers that give lasting curls. They heat fast and stay in my hair good. To be such an inexpensive product, I was pleasantly surprised at how well they work.
Value (for 19.99) is good but don't pay more IF:
you have thin hair (8lbs of huge heavy curlers) but durable set!
you have less than 1/2 hour to curl hair (WAY too long to heat up)
you hate creases from the grips (they were more defining than the curls themselves!)
Don't travel with it! it's too heavy and not very compact at all
Why the hell do they make these so heavy?? Ouch!!! I do like to conical shaped ones, wish they were all like that. Heat ok, flocking nice. Works in Europe
