Yeah, I tested many many models coming from that factory, and when I unboxed my SwiftPro I was a bit anxious whether I would be greeted by robot farts or not. The device shell had a noticeable smell, but as
@Mulehead said it was just impregnated by the box packaging foam.
As it was just under my nose I could smell it at first but it dissipated really quick. On the other hand, I did several empty burn-offs as usual, I tasted and licked the mouthpiece too just to be sure, and oh to my great surprise there was nothing funky, no new car smell, no polyimide tape glue, no weird silicone glue nor plastic smell. It wasn't 100% neutral at first but close to (hence the 2 or 3 empty burn-ins I did, but beware not to reverse the air flow on this one this could overheat the air intake! you need to blow in the bottom hole, not the mouthpiece)
My first bowl with the device was magical taste-wise. Really excellent and I dare to say almost better than my Zions, at least on par, but less full-bodied as expected (it was set to a medium temperature)
Really, I think this time Smiss nailed it right! It's good to very good on most fronts, the only big negatives are: battery life and use of plastics in the vapor path (same as Crafty somehow?)
