Second the Solo as a great reliable first vape for cheap (puffitup matches authorized eBay prices I believe so ~$130). MFLB requires more technique but is solid if gotten for real cheap, also a firewood is wood and similarly manual but different heating technology. Ascent is perfectly fine (offgassing was only the initial launch model), but can't find for less than around 200 so not even in your price range. Original Da Vinci is though. Check the threads
I agree there are many other options, just none that are as "idiot proof" as the vapormax IMO.
