I doubt either would break due to defect. Naturally the Herbo is more fragile, but I don't see the OP asking about durability.
The DBV is going to easily provide big hits, compared to the LB, and for a lot less $ than the Herbo. The LSV would be closest to the Herbo-glass and no whip.
If money is not a factor, is the LSV better than the herbo? also which is more efficient
The herbo is a one trick pony. It's an elegant, beautiful, French pony, but it only hits through pieces with a GonG attachment.
The LSV can be a dry, self-sufficient unit with its transfer wand, can be used as a lighter, and can also be used with GonG equipped pieces. That's a very talented pony. Having owned both, I think the Herborizers heating element might be better by just a tiny bit, but it's a very, very small difference, and personally I've never had a problem with the 7th floor elements after owning 3 different models now that use the same identical element. Ah, and the LSV is temp adjustable, which is kind of a "must" in my mind at this point. The LSV is a tank compared to the Herbo as well.
If it were a binary choice, I'd pick the LSV personally. Don't take that as not liking and appreciating the very cool, very attractive Herborizer design.
