Is this a full size flat iron? I'm looking for a compact one for traveling. It appears to be standard length?

It is compact - perfect for travel, especially with the heat protective mat/case. I think the straightener itself measures about 8 inches in total length, the 12 inch dimension in the description probably refers to the total size when it's in the case.

I took it to Munich and used it with a standard travel adapter. It did not work. The adapter heated up, the iron di and the whole thing was unsuccessful. I had to buy a hot iron locally.Perhaps there is a different kind of adapter that does work, but don't count on using it with a a basic adapter that can't accommodate the amount of power this device draws.

It is a full sized dryer, but its lifetime is short. Mine lasted less than 15 months and I only used it three or four times a week. It started making terrible noises and got very hot. My hair steamed. However, it did make my hair smooth and manageable, but was not worth the price.

No, the pillow is full standard size - I doubt this item is what you're looking for with regard to traveling

It's not travel sized, if that's what you mean. It's a regular sized blow dryer.

It's a pretty normal size just like other flat iron.and the wand it's a good size as we'll.i have pretty long hair nd the wand is capable of curling it well. I give it 5 stars.and the mini straighter is just a cool bonus you can take it anywhere.

No, it's a flat dry iron. I'm very pleased with it, using it in my quilting.

I have both the regular and the travel size steamers and like them both. The small one is good for travel.

It's relatively small. It's tapered so it's about 1 inch across at the top near the handle and about half inch at the tip. Warning- mine didn't come with the glove and I burned my fingers without it. I never used it again. It's difficult to use. I prefer the HSI 1" flat iron that straightens flips and curls and comes with a glove pouch and oil. I bought it from Amazon too. Great price and easy to use.

Not as hard as a regular full size dryer.If you have really long or thick hair,you may not find it quick enough.I have straight fine hair and I just use this for travel and to take to the gym.

It was a gift for my son so I cannot measure the cord. But, I tried it out first and the cord was a good size. I did not feel it was too short but I also did not recall noticing it was longer than usual. I really liked the iron.

I believe it is. I haven't been able to use mine for a couple of weeks due to some construction ongoing in my house, but I love the size. It is so much easier to get the mini iron out to use instead of my large iron.

I wouldn't say it's a travel size. It's about 15" tall. I'm sure there are specs on the website. But don't waste your money. It's a piece of crap. It only pops about 1/2 to 1/3 of the kernels. The unpopped kernels shoot out of the machine at high velocity and they are white hot. They've burned myself, my son and my dogs. Not worth it.

I answered you incorrectly, I'm so sorry. I looked at the wrong flat iron. This is NOT dual voltage. Just a suggestion, don't buy one and get a voltage converter! I made that mistake once and it ruined my flat iron on the first use. Buy dual voltage or an inexpensive one when you get there (which is what I ended up doing). Good luck safe travels!

Hi! It's sort of large to travel with...its 9"W 6"H and 12"D..and it is NOT light. Do you need such a large converter to travel with?

Hi Jennifer, Make sure to buy a universal adapter when traveling oversea this shouldnot affects the temperature setting.I used this flat iron in Montreal had no problems,but always check your setting before using.Have fun traveling.

1/2" wide and about 6" long. This is an awesome flatiron for travel and use at home.
