That's not true.
To state that price is the only advantage that other vapes may have for everyone else is simply not true.
Guys, please understand, I am not hating on the S&B vapes at all. As a matter of fact, the Crafty has my attention so much, I'm actually contemplating getting one, but I think the pedestal that some of you are putting them on may be a bit too high.
Your point is well taken. However, I don't think that people are necessarily saying that this is the best vape for everyone. Rather, I just think this is fulfilling a need that simply hasn't been met by the market until now. We've always had vapes that are efficient, tiny vapes, vapes with instant heat-up, vapes with long warranties, etc. What we haven't received thus far is a truly powerful (desktop-caliber), hard-hitting vape in a small and portable form.
And also, for the record, I was and still am a huge fan of the Plenty. In fact, I was so much of a fan that for my first few posts, I was suspected of being an S&B shill. But with that said, as much as I love the Plenty, the issue I had with it was cleaning. When it was brand new, it was super efficient, easy to take hits from, and overall amazing. However, I found after ~10 bowls, the metal coil and top piece got clogged, and I would be forced to either clean it (a long process with boiling water) or just put more into the bowl. That, ultimately, is why I felt the Plenty was inefficient - I never felt it was inefficient while clean. I am hoping that the Crafty will not run into the same problems.
However, with that said, I find it kind of frustrating that only now S&B recommends alcohol for their plastic parts. I remember in the Plenty manual it specifically forbid alcohol as a cleaning agent for the plastic parts - this is annoying because I would have never soaked them the way the Crafty manual warns against. I am actually thinking about breaking out the Plenty and using q-tips soaked in alcohol for maintenance cleaning and seeing if I get consistently efficient results.
