I have used GHD flat irons for a few years now because I needed the universal voltage option as they used to be one of the best brand out there.
Unfortunately, the GHD keep breaking down after the warranty expired and I wanted something new more reliable.
My hairdresser started carrying the Cloud 9 flat irons and because it's has an universal voltage option I decided to get one and see whatit is all about.
I tried to do some research before buying it but there was not much available on the market at that time...
I like the plastic protector and the temperature control but I completely dislike the plates.Their "secret ingredient " doesn't work at all as the plates don't glide through the hair smoothly as the GHD ones and it doesn't flip my hair as easily as the GHD(I tried 2 flat irons as one broke down and I received another one under warranty).It gets stuck at the end of my hair and if I am not careful I could easily burn my hair. On top of this after a week of using it my hair got dryer and looked frizzy... The style doesn't last as long over the day as with my GHD either.I have no issues like that with the GHD.
I had high hopes as it was created by former GHD people but I would not recommend spending the money for this flat iron.
I liked the warranty procedure as I got an exchange on the spot for the broken one(it broke down 3 months after purchase) but it feels like a cheap drug store model not like a $300 one(this is how much it costs in Canada...),
It also doesn't come with a travelling case that protects the flat iron(it has just a cloth bag :-)) so I had to use my GHD one for travelling.It comes in one colour only too......
I am considering buying an Sultra Seductress as a back up flat iron for traveling now as even if I have the Cloud 9 as a backup I find myself avoiding it and using the GHD most of the time.
