Is the Sedu flat iron the best out there?
Have you tried the new 2008 model?
Any others that are highly recommended?

My best friend has the Chi. I used it and hated it! It made my hair feel dry and it got curly even a few hours later! I got the Sedu though and I love it! It makes my hair silky smooth and very straight. I even have walked through the rain and when I got to class my hair was still stick straight! It seems to make the condition of my hair better than before but be sure to use a heat protectant!

Chi is better.
