Monster Heat Tool

I'm always on the hunt for new hair toys and I came across the H2pro Presto Flat Iron.  The amount of heat this uses scares me.  It features a turbo trigger to "cut styling time and simultaneously seal in moisture" by get this - reaching "450°F in a matter of seconds as the turbo trigger releases a burst of extra heat, ideal for stubborn, coarse, and thick hair in need of enhanced styling power."  I wouldn't even use this type of heat to iron a shirt let alone let it get anywhere near my hair, can you even imagine?  My hair would burn and break off!  Plus, it's ideal for "subborn, coarse, thick" hair how can that be, when that hair type is generally more vulnerable to damage?
