My new curling iron from that online ad was a total bust

I saw an ad for a curling iron that said it would hold heat for hours and not damage hair. It cost me $65 plus shipping. The barrel got way too hot on the lowest setting and left a weird smell on my client's hair. I had to redo her whole style with my old iron and comp her service. So I lost the product cost and the money from that appointment. Has anyone found a good curling iron that actually works like the ads say?

My old salon manager swore by the Hot Tools 1-inch iron. That thing lasted through three stylists before it quit. Honestly, you just can't trust the Instagram brands. I buy all my irons from a beauty supply store now so I can feel the weight and test the clamp before I pay. Tbh, that upfront markup is cheaper than losing a client over a fried tool.

Saw a review saying that happens with a lot of those direct-to-consumer tools.
