Not sure how many of you own one of these bad boys, but I do and I am more than happy with it. Saw some stuff on here about quality and warranty, and wanted to weigh in:
In terms of design, it's beautiful. If you've ever used or owned a Volcano, you know that it's shaped to fit it's name. Unfortunately, that makes it a bit bulkier than one (me, at least) might like. With the VapirRise, I was pleasantly surprised at the size. Much smaller than you'd imagine from photographs.
The touchscreen is wonderful--just gives it a sense of effortlessness.
Was a bit unhappy with the first bag of vapor, but soon realized that I had the heat too low. You got to try out different temps for different herbs to find the sweet spot, but when you do:
MONEY.
Having the 4 whips option is clutch. Nothing quite like having homies over, and not waiting for the bag to make the rounds.
As for the fan: yes, it's continuous. But that's to keep the herb chamber cool. If you have a Volcano (at least to the best of my memory,) you need to remove the herb chamber between bag fills so the nugs don't burn. With the continuous fan, you don't need to really worry about that. People have complained, but I think they're just basing it off of expectations. Because when you're using it, the last thing on your mind is the fan.
It doesn't do concentrates--but maybe they'll raise the temp capacity in the future.In any case, I'm not doing dabs frequently enough for that to be a deal breaker.
The warranty is a year long, but they try and help you out even after (also own Vapir's NO2, so I've been dealing with them for a minute now.)
tl;dr-- Love my VapirRise. Perfect when I'm just trying to relax and watch some shit, or when I've got people over. Fan keeps the herb chamber cool, pumps the vapor (makes for minimal effort when using the whips thankfully,) and is easily ignored. Vapor is tasty and smooth. And its well designed. Great investment.
