Pros: Heats up fast, curls really well, does not burn fingers, durable as heck
Cons: Clips get really hot and hurt my head
The Bottom Line: It is worth the $30, heats quickly and does a good job. Dropped it off a shelf and broke the lid and taped it and it works just as good.

| velvetrose's Full Review: Conair Instant Heat Hairsetter Model Chv21 |
I bought these rollers about 2 1/2 years ago. I had never used hot rollers before but I was tired of using a curling iron and I was tired of sleeping in sponge rollers so I thought I would try these. I usually wear my hair straight, but for nice occasions I like to do it up nice.
I like the color of these rollers, purple and white. They have soft fuzzy stuff on the outside of them so you don't have to touch hot metal. They heat up quickly. It takes my hair about 15 minutes to set, but I can do things while my hair does itself. I have pretty long hair and these work great. Everyone loves it when I do my hair with these and they always completely curl so I don't have to do touch ups.
They are pretty heavy and should not be set on the top shelf. I have had them fall down on my feet a few times. Also I have set them on the floor and had a shoe fall on the lid and broke it. I was very upset but then I just took tape and taped it back together and it is as good as new.
Someone else wrote about the little clips getting really hot.. that is true. If you leave them in their when the unit heats up then they can burn your fingers, but usually I'm tough and just do it anyway.
Someone else wrote about the lid not staying up. I don't know what that is about. If you set it on a flat surface (or on the carpet like I do) the lid stays up. I even tested that when I read that review so I knew that I was right in saying that it does stay up.
Mine hasn't gone out on me yet but I only use it about once a week on average.
