It even feels like it's designed not to get messy. I've been making all of my friends try it (I want them to buy vapes so they'll stop wanting to do combustion hits when I'm over
) and a few times, they've lifted the stem off of the heater with the
herb still glass side down (EDIT glass still herb side down.) Instead of falling all over the floor like just that heating element would, it gets caught in that like, 1-1.5 cm gap between the heater and the wood. From there I suck it right back into the stem. I don't know if that's on purpose, but it really makes me glad that I picked the nano over, say, the UD (no hate meant because I haven't tried it,) with which I might be a HAIR messier.
EDIT looking at UD's site and it looks like they're the same. i'd only seen the pictures of it that made it look like a series of progressively smaller cylinders. See below for what I meant.
