Best of Dry Herb Vapes 2022

KandyPens is a brand that sets itself apart in the vaporizer space by being one of the more dynamic and flashy brands out there. Their product line-up is also incredibly diverse, offering mid-range to budget-friendly devices. KandyPens is also quite known for its collaborations with various artists and celebrities- but none of these specialty products breach the $200 mark. 

The K-Vape Pro strikes me as an interesting release since it seems to be a deviation from the boldness that the brand tends to lean towards. This device puts its performance front and center- no-fuss, no-frills, and a standard set of features. A few of its features are a 0.5-gram ceramic heating chamber, four temperature settings topping off at 428F, a 1100mAh battery with pass-thru charging (which means you can use the device even while it’s plugged in), and a comfortable glass mouthpiece with “cooling technology.” It also features a hybrid heating method that utilizes both conduction and convection heating which brings out the flavor and vaporizes the herb more efficiently.

It’s basically a two-part device, consisting of the vape pen battery, and the glass mouthpiece. Including the mouthpiece, the K-Vape Pro stands only 4.75 inches tall and is just about an inch at its widest point. The tapered glass mouthpiece is quite thick, has a comfortable mouth-feel, and transfers very little to no heat. 

Toronto-based company Utillian has made it their brand promise to create well-priced and well-performing vaporizers, and the Utillian 421  is a good example of that. It features conduction heating, a single-button interface, a clear LED display, a long battery life, adjustable airflow, and a glass mouthpiece for keeping vapor pure.

The Utillian 421 has a simple box-style body with rounded edges and an anodized steel finish. It’s only 4 inches tall making it pretty portable and stealthy. On the side of the 421 is an oval-shaped power button that is used to turn it on/off and to cycle through any of its 6 pre-set temperatures.

It heats up at around 60 seconds and delivers 5-6 good hits before the flavor begins to dwindle slightly. Priced at $64, it is one of the best dry herb vaporizers under $100. The U421 delivers good vapor quality and performs notably for its price- flavorful, pure, and cool. A user-friendly and simple device, the Utillian 421 is a great device for users looking for a first device (types of dry herb vaporizers) or an uncomplicated daily driver.

The Boundless Vexil is a uniquely designed device made by US-based brand Boundless Technology. The Vexil is a palm-sized, point-and-shoot dry herb vaporizer that features a zirconia cooling system, magnetic zirconia mouthpiece, USB-C charging, four preset temperatures, a wide oven, and conduction heating technology. While it is currently the newest device on this list – it’s definitely a strong choice especially if you’re looking for a handy, concealable vaporizer for dry weed. 

While most devices are either pen-shaped and within minimalist aesthetics – the Vexil is slightly flat, with raised angles throughout its body. On the front of the device is a display with a flame graphic to indicate heating or temperature, and on the side are three small buttons, the power button, and two arrows for toggling through the 4 pre-set temperatures. At only 154g, it’s a pretty lightweight device – but feels dense, solid, and balanced to the touch.

The Vexil is also the first Boundless device to have zirconia pieces – namely the zirconia spiral cooling air path, and the mouthpiece. Zirconia is an advanced neutral material that keeps the vapor pure and adds to the overall good quality vapor that the Vexil delivers. Draws on the Vexil are also particularly pleasant since the wide oven lowers draw resistance. Using the Vexil is as straightforward as using any other dry herb vaporizer, but if you’re new to dry herb vaping- our in-depth use guide is sure to help you.
