Out to lunch
- Does not come with a portable bag
It's a direct draw vape. If you want bag use as well, S&B expects you to buy the Plenty and the Volcano both.

Expensive compared to the LSV
I'd be shocked if S&B ever introduced a product that wasn't expensive.

The Plenty and LSV aren't usually in an 'either or' situation. One is basically a whip vape using stainless steel instead of tubing. The other is a modified whip vape where the tubing is replaced by mating the vape with some kind of glassware. You need to decide whether you want water filtration or not, since it's pretty much mandatory with one and hard to do with the other.

SSV w/ Standard HC, LSV HC, thermovape all,
Hey first time poster here...love this forum. I currently own the mlfb, but am seriously considering the plenty or the LSV. Anyone have experience with both? I will primarily be using it by myself and supply is not an issue. Things i like about the plenty include:

- Appears to be durable -- wont break easy
- Excellent company
- Based on reviews, produces excellent, cool vapor

Things i'm concerned about:
- Coil can get very hot
- Does not come with a portable bag
- Expensive compared to the LSV

I also wondering if you could put the coil in the freezer - has anyone tried this?

The LSV also has great reviews.

IMO you should also check out the SSV (silver surfer Vape as well) All of the heater covers 7th floor makes can be put on the SSV, including the LSV Heater covers, I have the LSV hc on my SSV sometimes with the ground glass whip, and it sits like a hands free, mate the tube with a bong, wooo, if you use a silicone bowl, you can use the SSV with standard heater cover like a log, and get super milky hits from the bong,

Hey All, I just got a plenty and found that my Solo stems fit perfectly - has anyone tried using something other than the coil and plastic mouthpiece? I will give it a try later and report back.

I seem to get alot more vapor out of my Solo than the Plenty - the Plenty draws too freely almost like there's an air leak. I checked the stem and herbchamber and no leak there - perhaps in the body of the machine. I am less than satisfied with the Plenty but maybe I am doing something wrong...

I use my plenty at maximum heat to get the thick vapor that I like. Thats my only complaint with it. I wish it got about 20 degrees hotter. But I think all the plastic prohibits that.

I rarely goes more than 6 1/2 on the temp dial and obtain A LOT of vapor. Max temp = bad taste IMHO. The herb just taste incredible at low/mid temp with the Plenty! And i never complained that it did'nt produce enough vapor at that temp. The Plenty is very efficient in the heating dept and offer options to keep it at the desired temp. I'm one of those who appreciate the on/off/hold switch of the Plenty. Never understood people's complaints about the on/off switch. I think most users just don't know how to use it properly...

I enjoy the Plenty a lot more when i use a whip instead of the provided cooling coil. The whip and the Aquavape greatly improve the whole Plenty experience for me. It should be the only portable desktop vaporizer on the market i think. Easy to carry. Unbreakable. Very efficient in vapor production. But remember;it takes plenty to make plenty with the Plenty!

I guess I really like thick harsh clouds. I like the plenty a lot though. I bet they haven't haven't had to honor many warranty claims. :D

Hey All, After about a weeks testing of my new Plenty it has been semi-permanently stuck in a drawer since my Solo blows it away in terms of vapor quantity and flavor plus the Solo doesnt have any plasticy odor like the Plenty - 250euros down the drain...

Be Good, P77

Hi All,

I am shocked that S&B would sell this thing - I expect top quality from them. The folks who do the youtube reviews of Plenty raving about vapor quality and quantity must have a different Plenty than I do. Just so u all know I tried it with chamber full (trying different grind consistancies and amounts, always full or with oil pad, and different herb, some dry some sticky some mixed with kief) and tried it on temps from 5 to max - On max temp a little more production but tastes burned. I checked all connections for chamber etc and no obvious air leaks. I am truly bummed - if I could trade it in and get a volcanno by paying more I would do it in a NY second. I have been smoking for 45 years and this is first time I felt ripped off by a paraphenalia manufacturer. Being in Asia where there are no head shops or dispensaries I unfortunately must depend on online reviews of strains and paraphenalia.

You have to work the plenty to get big clouds. You need repeated hits to warm up the load. So a single light toker is never going to experience it in its full glory.

There isn't much to go wrong with it. It either works or it doesn't. It the heater is cycling then I'd say its working and it's just not his kinda vape. It's not for everyone that's for sure.

Maybe try it without a full chamber? Lots of vapes change characteristics when loaded full vs. less than plenty. And like Emlo said, work it.

2 Years ago I started getting numbness and tingling in my lips and tongue after bongs so I decided to switch to vaping. I went to my local headshop and came home with what you guys call the NobleVP600.
Fast foward to now and I have just made my first 'informed' Vape purchase...the Plenty.
All I can say is WOW. What a difference...not that the Noble was so bad, but the whole Plenty experience is superior in many ways. I have none of the problems Prof77 mentioned...the vapor tastes great and the volume is fantastic. I love the way I no longer have to worry about spillage and the unit is easier to pass and share. I'm a fan. :tup:
...and the nunbness and tingling have gone away since I gave up smoking.:nod:

The plenty is awesome and you will love it. But in time you will find even better devices...

So i guess it's no more plasticky than the Volcano is? I guess they have their reasons. And I hope and blindly assume they have met the health concerns with confidence. (both models)

Weird it is that initially my reaction to the PLenty was slightly negative because its a plastic whip-like device...to me that means all glass and best flavor, but more importantly best health. So again, just seems weird, but I guess it's not much more so than the Volcano.


As regards the Plenty and Volcano, I would get them, sure. Beastly. But I would also pursue an all glass method for daily use, and use the S&B units semi-daily, etc.. Glass just seems smarter.

Unfortunately it will take me a while to save up for another Vape, but I like the look of the 'made in Australia' Hot Pod, that has an all glass path. It's at the top of my next purchase list, but meanwhile there's some very happy campers enjoying my new "power tool" :drool:. If I get a Hot Pod that will be 1 Chinese, 1 German, and 1 Aussie vape...sounds like a good united nations of vaporizers to me...lol

A passing friend who previously didn't have a single good word to say about any of the (admittedly limited) range of Vapes he had come across was so impressed with the Plenty he asked for the Storz and Bickel brochure that came with the box with a view to getting one for himself.;)

Nice. Volcano life so far haas steeped my life into thc tea /sea/whoa anyways i found some jars i had tucked away and I'm able to enjoy flavors while easing pain after working out my reconstructed foot. (two big-toe metatarsels and sets of screws on both sides of my ankle)
I have to cut down in order to let my body actually be unstoned and get its rebuilding on, but I have considerable pain when working it out so it helps immensely.


Power tool indeed

I love the Plenty, just bought it & it's now my favorite. I was looking for a whip vape I could travel with --I was using the Arizer Solo but the vapor irritated my throat when used as my only vape for a few days. I can literally load the Plenty up & use it all day (medical patient here) like the Volcano, except the Plenty gives me lots of vapor full of flavor all day long. I start at around 4 -- don't let the temp get into the red zone or all the flavor goes. It's a great vape, and I think it's well worth the money -- see Volcano. You get what you pay for.

You DON'T always get what you pay for and when you proceed that statement with..........."see Volcano", your statement becomes even more questionable.

I need help! As of right now i am not a huge fun of the Plenty. i have a PAX that i use daily, i got the Plenty for when i am not alone due to size of bowl. This is the first week using and i am not producing clouds at all, thin vapor unless i take the biggest hits my lungs allow and rapidly. i am not sure if i am use to taking slow small hits from using the Pax or what but the only way i can get good vapor with the Plenty is ripping it as hard as i can and as fast as i can.

i need an explaination of hitting this machine

I've found that taking 4-5 hits and releasing immediately primes the Plenty. You won't see vapor but you will taste the weed. When you take your 5th or 6th hit, take it long and slow and you should see lots of vapor. How that helps :)

For me it's all about the flavor, so I'll start at 4 & end up at 6 by the end of the day. The vapor is denser at the higher end, but the flavor is toasty instead of flavorful. I love it, the vapor doesn't get stale in a bag. I can take just what I need, and even at the lower end I still get very very medicated. So glad I bought it.

Hello all, although been doing a lot of reading, this is my first post here, apologies if i posted in the wrong.
I purchased a SB Plenty some months back, and am pretty happy so far, but my concern is cleaning it, specifically the cooling coil. I am hoping to try and reclaim since there is a visible substance coming from the tube. I'm not sure the best way to remove and obtain the substance because of the awkward shape of the coil, and not sure if it being steel over glass complicates things. I'm not familiar with cleaning parts of vaporizers, especially trying to reclaim.

Also, does having this substance in the coil cut down on efficiency?
Thanks to all in advance,
JD

I'm not familiar with the plenty, but people typically use isopropyl alcohol (91%+ is recommended) to reclaim vape pieces. Plug one end of the coil and fill it about 2/3 with ISO. Plug the other end and shake the coil until the reclaim is dissolved. Drain the alcohol into a glass pan and allow it to evaporate. This will leave the reclaim coated to the pan- scrape it up and use it as you wish.
