I was really looking forward to the Daab as I’m already a fan of the Wand. However, my excitement appears to have turned into regret as my unit left much to be desired. I want to preface the rest by stating that I didn’t order from VGoodiez and this is not the fault of the vendor/retailer I ordered from, but I have reached out for support and am still awaiting a response.
In any case, my unit gives off a burnt plastic/chemical smell from the induction heater chamber. Upon further inspection, I noticed a scratch mark on the lip of the water piece. The carb cap is too long and can’t make a proper seal with the bottomless banger. Then there’s also what almost appears like a glue repair at the top joint of the bottomless banger. But what compelled me to set this rig aside or get rid of it is that the smell also leached into the flavor and practically ruined my session despite thoroughly cleaning all pieces with 99% ISO and performing a burn off prior to first use. Thankfully I had my Peak ready (for a side by side comparison) to chase down the fowl taste. I’m too afraid for my health to attempt another session as that smell is still present after airing out for a day and I’m not sure what materials were used and where they were sourced from (besides knowing the device is manufactured in China). So here I am venting my frustration after spending a couple bills on a heavy paper weight right now.
Hoping others are having a better experience as I don’t want to dampen people’s anticipation. I think the tech is genius, low maintenance and simply brilliant. Just wish better execution and quality control.
