Knock off CHI Flat irons on Ebay... is it just as good?

[MoeB424]

I've been searching on ebay for a good priced Chi flat iron and came across one that claims to be a carbon copy of it called Chloche. If you search for Chi hundreds of the faux ones will come up. It seems to be just as good and less expensive, but before I consider buying one I wanted to know, from those who like to bargain shop, if they've tried the Chi knock off???

I have seen that one and was tempted to pick it up until I saw an auction for a pink "U-Chi" for $9.99. I bought it and I can't imagine it doing a better job! It gets my hair super salon straight when I need it to and I've had it for 1/2 a year and it's not broken apart on me, still looks and acts very new like... give it a try!
