Why do companies waste so much space with so many small rollers? I prefer more large. Does anyone really use these? Just curious.

You can order more medium, small or large rollers if you want. If you look on the insert/instruction booklet that comes with the original set, you will see that you can order parts. I ordered 6 more medium curlers because I don't use the large either so now myConair set has 12 medium and 8 small curlers which is perfect for me.

Are the rods the rollers sit on metal or plastic? I can't tell by the picture.

Has anyone seen a STEAM hot roller system, which uses hard, thick plastic rollers on a vented platform above bath of boiling water? The steam from the boiling water rises to the rollers which one then rolls into one's hair and secures firmly with a clip. By the time the last roller is secured the first one is almost ready to be taken off. The rollers have special ends so they can be handled even with the steamy hot,or one can use gloves. The steam energy is released into the hair as it curls and the set lasts a very very long time. I had one many years ago and it took me less than 15minures to tame my very coarse, thick, curly hair into smooth manageability. I briefly used a hot air brush ( https://www.amazon.com/Salon-Hot-Air-Brush-3-4/dp/B000GZD1JG -- this product has plastic spines which don't deform at high heat,and I used the 11/2" wide brush) afterwards to create a style that lasted all day. I'd be willing to pay a LOT if I could find this perfect system again.

I cannot get these to grasp my hair. Anyone else have trouble with really silky soft hair being unable to roll?

I use just regular hair spray on the end of each section when rolling with hot rollers. I spray, run a comb through the hair and roll. It helps to hold the hair on the roller to get started AND HELPS THE CURL TO stay in the hair. ( works like a hair styling gel. Anyone remember DippityDoo?) I have been doing this for 40+ years. Your comb will collect dried hair spay and need to be washed often. Liquid soap or shampoo and a soak in a basin of warm water will help to release it. An OLD TOOTH brush does a complete job of cleaning The comb.
