Cheaper versions of GHD but almost as good?

The Phillips Tresemme ones aren't bad, not quite GHD quality (they don't glide as well) but very close.

ETA these are the ones I have

Many people say Chi work well - never tried them myself though. I've been though enough alternatives to know it's GHD's or nothing for me!

My Hairdresser uses FHI's

Thanks everyone I will have a look. Lobster, I am the same, I love my GHD's and I know my mum would be the same and I don't know whether to really treat her, but it is a lot of money.

My hairdresser uses she hair straighteners and she says they are as good as ghd's ?
