I think where most of the animosity comes from is the aggressive marketing and business tactics from S&B. In the past they have used their patents offensively and took part in trying to game the origional DaVinci thread by spreading misinformation about the vape. I'd imagine this is the reason some FC'ers have a disdain for the company.
Yes I remember that guy on the Davinci thread. Rather sleasy if S&B did put him up to it.
Nobody is going to deny the Volcano is a good machine. Where the debate is, is in how it compares to other similar vaporizers and whether the price premium is worth it.
The Volcano is overpriced in todays market with lots of other good machines to choose from for less bucks.
I got lucky and picked up mine used about eight years ago. I think where it excels is for use in vapour lounges or clinics where ease of use,simplicity and durability is important. A fine glass piece might not last long in those situations. The two vapour lounges in Toronto where we go on occasion have Volcanoes and I always bring my own bag from home for sanitary reasons.
