This thing just doesn't work. It has a flat pad, which crimps my eyelashes and makes them look like a folded piece of paper, not curled. It's too rounded, so it doesn't get all of my eyelashes. It would crimp the lashes on the outer corner of my eye, and do nothing for the lashes in the middle. (I'm caucasian, and my eyes aren't an unusual shape or anything).
I tried pressing more gently so it wouldn't crimp my eyelashes, but then it didn't do anything. I tried crimping all the way up my lashes so they would look more curled instead of folded, but it still made them look folded over.
I bought a Trim eyelash curler with a round pad (for $3 at walmart. A lot less than I paid for the LaCross lash curler), and it makes a world of difference.

Didn't like it. The manufacturers made pretty much every mistake imaginable in an eyelash curler: The frame was much too round and pinched; it gave my lashes a crimped look; and it didn't fit a large part of my lashline. To be fair, though, I will state my eyes are slanted, and thus, my lid is flatter. This might work for Caucasian girls.

Curls and does the job well.

This was an awful product. I noticed that more I used it the more my eylashes stuck to the pads. After a few days, it ripped several of my eyelashes out! Awful. Went back to Revlon.

This is the only eyelash curler Ive owned so I cant really compare it to any others. But I like it, it does the job for me. I used to not really see the point in curling my lashes but once I bought this and gave it a try I can really see why everyone does it.

I never really thought there was much of a difference in eyelash curlers, I had a cheap 99 cent one from my local grocery store, and it pinched and it lost it's spring, so I finally decided to pick up a new one. This one was on a bogo 50% with Sally Hansen stuff so I picked it up and a nail polish, so I paid about 2 bucks for it, and I must say what a difference. It is nice and wide gets all my lashes in one shot, it doesn't pinch, it fits the shape of my eye, and curls them beautifully. No crimping just wide open eyes, it comes with 3 replacement pads, my other only came with 2, and they are in a little plastic pouch. I like this a lot and would repurchase if I needed to.

I'm not really picky about eyelash curlers and I haven't had the crimping problem with this that some other people had, but if I'm not careful it pinches. It doesn't fit my lash line very well. I had an old ELF curler that I used for years. When I replaced it, the new one was totally different than the old one. I hated it. I threw it away and bought this. As soon as I remember to replace this one I will.

I was rushing around to get ready one night, and realized that I had lost my trusty Revlon curler (gold one with the spring). Then, to top things off, they were out of that particular model at CVS when I ran across the street to get another. So I grabbed this La Cross curler for super cheap, thinking it would get me by til I had time to go somewhere else and get another one. To my surprise, I ended up liking this one better than my Revlon. It actually is wider, meaning I get ALL of my lashes in one effortless sweep. No pinching or missing the outer edge like my old one. This creates a really nice, long lasting curl. The only issue I have is that if you are not careful and gentle, as other reviewers have said, you WILL get a crimp. It takes a bit of expertise, but for the most part I am very satisfied. It came with like 3 refill pads, but honestly, I always lose them and never use them anyway. I'll probably try a different brand next time, I've been wanting to experiment with higher end curlers. But in a bind or when youre strapped for cash, this curler is a great option.

Been using this for 5 years or so and it has worked great for me. Gotta be gentle or you will accidentally hurt yourself. This holds a good curl, but again you must be gentle or your lashes will have an ugly crimp. I love that it comes with 3 refills with its own sleeve. This is nothing fancy and I am curious to try high end brand curlers compared to this... but I think this works just fine for me. Holds a curl all day and sometimes the curl remains after i take off my makeup for the night.

cheap and the curl lasts a long time. would repurchase.
edit: UGH i dropped this, and the pad fell out and would not stay in. I had to super-glue the pad in and even then it wouldn't work right anymore. i bought the tarte lash curler and it's much better quality.

Very effective. Be careful and be gentle, otherwise you get a crimp instead of a curl. Don't bother with the guarantee (sending the curler to the manufacturer for replacement or repair); it is less hassle to simply buy another one.
