Yep its been about 3 years for me too and i LOVE it!!! It makes my hair so beautiful and straightens without damaging my hair. I will cry the day it stops working! But it really has been the best $300 i have ever spent.
I am pretty sure my sister did cry when hers stopped working (she melted the power cord, duh!). Husband bought her another quick smart to keep the peace lols.

Just Me: Do your research, often you can pick up limited edition GHD gift packs with freebies included with the straightener
