New to vaporizing. Need help picking out a portable.

[macanddevin]

So I want to start vaping but I don't know which portable would be right for me. I'm looking for the following things in a Vape: portability, simple/easy to use, saves herb, won't make a dorm reek. and little maintenance. Things I don't care about: materials (glass vs. plastic) and a variety of temperature settings. I want something good for a beginner, but will still get me where I'd like to go. Something like the MFLB wouldn't be good because it's too much of a hassle to teach people to use it. And the Solo wouldn't be good for me because it's too big and the glass parts might be a bit too difficult. My price range is $125 or less. Don't mind buying from eBay too. Thanks for any help guys!

The recommendations ( Imag+, Flowermate, etc.) on this thread, Good portable and low smelling vape, may apply.

I'm here to vouch for the Flowermate. It definitely produces a more subtle smell than most of my vapes and all you have to do is inhale. I've also found that some vapor re-condenses into some waxy material in the part that the mouthpiece slides into(not the part that the fully assembled mouthpiece screws into) which is pretty tasty when you dab it.

With a wooden stem

And the solo isn't that big.

The Solo fits your criteria pretty well actually. New owners always report "it's smaller than I thought it would be" and those glass stems are very tough (for glass). It may not be the most stealthy, but it is one of the best "all around" vapes out there. Some of the smaller pocket vapes may not "get you there"... the Solo will and can keep up with many desktop plug-in vapes.

Whatever you decide, I highly recommend buying from FC's supporting retailer PuffItUp.com for the best service. They will price match whatever deal you can show them as long as they carry the product... even eBay.
