2021's Best Vaporizers For Oil, Wax, & Dry Herb

Best Vaporizers 2021 Buyers Guide

Congratulations folks, for you are witnessing the Vaporizer renaissance of the 20th Century. 

The rise in popularity of vaping as one of the preferred ways to enjoy herb has led to a tidal wave of new and innovative designs, exciting technology and more affordably priced devices. All of which means that vaping is no longer limited to the connoisseur and is now easily accessible to newcomers and avid smokers alike.

No matter if you’re a medical marijuana user looking to vape CBD for therapeutic purposes, or are a discerning cannabis user who has transitioned from smoking to vaping for its many benefits, vaporizers are here to stay. 

That’s the good news. The not so bad news is that there is a virtually endless supply of makes, models and brands to choose from, making it difficult to know which is best and what will most adequately fit your needs.

You can, for example, narrow down on the best vaporizer for dry herbs. But what if you are looking to wet your toes in concentrate or oil? Is your vaporizer compatible with multiple types of material such as dry herb and concentrates? 

That’s where we step in.

In this guide, we’ve handpicked some of the best vaporizers in 2019 including our most popular. Taking out the guesswork so you can find just what you need. Best of all, there’s a device for every occasion in this list.

And for those that like versatility and mixing things up, we even included a few multipurpose devices listed that will keep you covered for those rare occasions when you crave something different.

So sit back and enjoy this list of the best vaporizers in 2019. 

Da Vinci MIQRO - The best vaporizer for dry herb

The Da Vinci MIQRO is one of the smallest dry herb vaporizers on the market at 3” x 1.5”. But don’t let the small size fool you. It is crammed with more features than what you’d find in much higher priced units. 

This device comes with full on-board controls, four conveniently positioned buttons, a reasonable-sized dot matrix display and four preset temperature settings. It is capable of heating up in about 30-seconds on a full charge and lasts about 30 minutes at the highest temperature. 

Inside the aluminum casing, lies Da Vinci’s famed Zirconia pearl design which makes loading, a cakewalk. Cleaning and maintenance is super easy as well. 

There are no off-tastes or flavors because everything from the oven to the mouthpiece is glass. No metal or plastic anywhere. 

The vapor quality is just phenomenal for a vaporizer this size. Irrespective of whether you are looking for a quick sesh on-the-go, or for a portable, discreet unit that’s perfect for group sessions, the Da Vinci MIQRO fits the bill. 

It trumps the Arizer Argo as our favorite dry herb vaporizer in 2019. 

Top 5 reasons to buy the Da Vinci MIQRO: 

  • Smallest dry herb vaporizer
  • Borrows the design from the IQ
  • Full onboard controls
  • Heats in 30 seconds
  • Excellent vapor quality
  • KandyPens Gravity - Best portable vaporizer for dabbing

    KandyPens is on a roll. Their latest offering, called the Gravity, is hands down the best portable vaporizer for dabbing. And that’s no mean feat folks. For the market is flooded with portable dabbing pens

    The Gravity manages to stand out from the crowd by offering two atomizers in a kit, each suited for different types of dabbing enthusiasts. 

    There’s the coil-less ceramic atomizer, better suited for low-temperature dabbing and the Dual quartz crystal rod atomizer, perfect for those large, dense clouds on-the-go. 

    There are four preset temperature settings that take the guesswork out of vaping and the bottom is sealed to prevent leaks. This allows you to use it with thinner viscosity concentrates as well. 

    We absolutely love the discreet, black design. Looks just like an e-cig and fits right into our pocket. It is available in three finishes. There’s the sandblasted finish, a smoother polished one and a rubberized one for the ones with slippery palms. 

    It is as discreet as it can get. 

    The Gravity is powered by a 650mah battery. Not the best that we’ve seen. But it can easily last all day even with heavy use. If you use it moderately, it will last two or even three days. 

    That’s something that we can live with. Can’t you? 

    Using the Gravity is super easy. Charge it, load the dab, click five times to power the device, thrice to toggle through the temperature settings.  There are LED lights that indicate the battery status and when the device is ready to be used. Sweet! 

    Top 5 reasons to buy KandyPens Gravity: 

  • E-Cig styled compact design
  • Good build quality
  • Dual atomizers for low temp use and for thick clouds at a high temp
  • Four preset temperature settings
  • Can be used with low viscosity concentrates as well

  • Firefly 2+ - The best multipurpose Vaporizer 

    We love Firefly’s range of vapes and the new Firefly 2+ certainly rates amongst the best in the business. All the tiny quibbles that we had with the Firefly 2 have been ironed out with the 2+. It is a multipurpose ‘pure convection’ vape that can be used with dry herb as well as concentrate. 

    This device offers a full temperature spectrum ranging from 200-500, heats in the blink of an eye (we really mean it) and fits into your pocket. 

    Can’t ask for more. 

    The build quality is excellent and despite being as sleek as a WII remote, it is pretty lightweight. You need to sync it with the app to access most of the features. But thankfully, nothing is buried deep in the menu. 

    You will be able to access most settings easily. 

    The chamber packs in about .15 gms at a time. But you can use the Firefly 2+ for micro-dosing. And we are talking really small doses which should appeal to therapeutic users as well as for people looking for a single, solo hit. 

    Everything from the bowl to the vapor path is borosilicate glass. So, no off-flavours. 

    The dynamic convection heating means that the temperature doesn’t crank up at a time. It rises gradually as you draw. Speaking about the draw, the improved draw resistance with the smoother airflow makes this a consistent performer. 

    The vapor quality is A+. Smooth, creamy and flavorful every time. 

    The Firefly 2+ is powered by a 770mAh battery that offers at least 6-8 full bowls per charge. Maybe more depending on the temperature setting that you use. 

    Top 5 reasons to buy the Firefly 2+:

    • Sleek design, fits into your pocket
    • Works with both, dry herb as well as concentrate
    • Perfect for micro-dosing
    • Heats up in 3-5 seconds
    • Borosilicate glass vapor path, dynamic convection heating offering full flavor every time
