Well, they should offer me a new Crafty, as mine is defective while under warranty! As for opening up their entire product line at a discount, I did send a polite letter expressing my frustration with the Crafty (this 3rd unit only lasted 4 months), so maybe this is their way of making that up. It almost feels like they are trying to push me away from getting another Crafty? I have a Classic Volcano already, so thinking it might be time for the Mighty! Also; just got a FF2, and am really getting tired of having to use a phone just to change temps, so the Mighty gets me away from that nonsense.So they are offering you a Mighty or Crafty for free or a cano for $49?
That seems pretty damn generous to me if it's true.

They have received my parcel today, it was the fuse that died again.
It the same time, my upgrade to a mighty is accepted, I just have to pay 50€ fees.
I don't have the same chance as Vaporcussion but I'm still happy, and I hope that this one isn't gonna die that fast!
It was a pleasure to be with you, fellow craftyer!
Here I am Mighty's thread!
Edit : OH yeah I forgot to mention that the consumer service was delightful, nice and polite, quick and efficient. Always a pleasure to deal with us

I also had 3 Crafty's die in about 7 month's time. One difference is that #2 died from (?) battery use (?) so I had to pay for a new battery at the time. But then #3 died and I did the upgrade for difference in price.
I have been totally happy with the Mighty. It has lasted about 10 months now and is going strong.
In my opinion, all of you lately who are doing the upgrade are making a good move! I would only recommend Crafty to a light occasional user who's not going to test its' limits.

@Ratchett thinks outside the circle.
One piece, no lid to fumble with. No more dropped capsules.
He sent me two versions of the 4 capsule holders. He also makes a longer 8 cap version.
One on left has rounded edges, but a bit longer.
Maybe you folks could post your preference in his thread.
Edit: maybe it's part of the plan -- rounded one for empties? Can feel difference when grabbing a fresh capsule vs spent?
Pic shows how much smaller it is than the S&B magazine.

I like it! The S&B magazine should operate like a Pez dispenser, drop them out one at a time
Ironically, as say goodbye to my 3rd faulty unit, (upgrading to the Mighty) I see this Crafty knockoff... too late!

A $60 Crafty ripoff, wow! I wonder how much it actually costs to make the Crafty

I think you usually have to ask for the upgrade when you return a Crafty for warranty service.
Check your original purchase date. You may still have one return option left if this one fails soon!
I have an interesting warranty story, about the date it becomes effective. I have seen the warranty and its' statement that 2 year term is effective on the day one receives product. But before I saw that, I emailed and asked about the status of my warranty, having had one exchange of the Crafty by that time. I have the answer in writing (an email from S&B), that my warranty period began on the day they first received my first Crafty back for warranty service. A second email confirms the exact date. I do believe that someone made an error in sending this to me, because it effectively extends my warranty by several months. It is pertinent because my current Mighty is still considered to be under that original warranty. If Mighty 'expires' during that extended window, my claim will be interesting!

Hey fellas!
A short update of my 4th Crafty. I'm still impressed by this little beast. 102 hours on it , 3 sessions on 180/195°C. It is firmware 2.10.
I bought it in December 2014 so I think I can get a 5th Crafty before the guarantee ends.
I calculated that I have had the Crafty then for ~800 days. 2 years +3 months minus 20 days to get the new units. If this will happen, I payed round about ~0,37 Cent per day for using this machine. In my opinion it's not too expensive!
Fuck combustion!

So we all paid $350 (in my case $400) for a vape that is sure not to last more than 2 years? That's a horrible precedent to set.
Upgrade to a mighty on ur last warranty they last longer.Hey fellas!

If you show me a portable vaporizer that hits like the Crafty , is easy to use like the Crafty....don't want to number all Crafty benefits again. For me it's the best portable vaporizer on the market. If you are a heavy user take the Mighty , and if you like to have a vaporizer which will last for more than 2 or 3 years then buy a good desktop unit!
@Kasish: I own a Mighty too. But thanks for your advice!

maybe some butane vapes would last years ..no electronics/batteries to fail over time
and theyre not usually all that expensive
..but matching the crafty ..

I can't think of many consumer products with rechargeable batteries that reliably last more than 2-3 years. Curious if a crafty with a replaceable 18650 or 26650 battery would exceed 3 years. I'd guess so.

Lately I've been using my Vapman much more than my crafty. All day usage with never a worry about batteries dying!.... Ease of use is the only thing crafty has on that lil guy

Hello everyone, I just joined and thought I'd share my recent Crafty experience - I guess echoing what you all have said. My unit died about a year after I got it, so I went to the online support page and filled out the form. After getting a return shipping label, I sent it off. Two weeks later, without any questions or even any communication, they just sent me a brand new Crafty.
I'd the say based on this, the support is very good, as is the Crafty itself, when it works. It is definitely a killer vape, but the thought of sending it back every couple of years is a little disconcerting. Luckily I now have a spare vape, an FF2, but I guess they're both the state of the art, so we live with it!

Welcome @HighClouds ! You have a nice little collection there, but I think you need a grasshopper too. Or (and?) maybe a log...

Hahaha, thank you Mr.Me2. I admit to not being much of a vape aficionado, but these two seem just fine for now. I am finding interesting differences between the two, and once I have my thoughts solidified, I'll post my comments. Nothing that would surprise anybody, though, I'm afraid..

I just posted a quick comparison between the Crafty and the FF2 on the FF2 section. I'd be happy to copy and paste it here, but I'm loathe to break any forum rules!
