BEST Dry Herb Vapes 2021

The Mighty+ comes 7 years after the release of the Mighty by legendary German brand- Storz & Bickel (visit store). Known for its consistent vapor quality and superior build – the Mighty+ does not disappoint. While it retains the swiveling mouthpiece, precise temperature settings, large LED display, and S&B’s highly effective hybrid heating system. It also features faster USB-C charging paired with a completely redesigned circuit board, a new ceramic-lined filling chamber, faster 60-second heat-up time, and a new “super booster” pre-set.

It features nearly the same design as the original but with a few cosmetic changes such as pops of the S&B signature orange on the buttons and logo and a new fin design. It’s also constructed with a new medical-grade plastic shell and now has small feet at its base to keep the Mighty+ upright.

The Mighty+ (Plus) is currently the only portable that is certified for medical use by TUV and UL. This certification guarantees the safety of the battery, charging, electrical, and heating components. Due to its hybrid heating system- The Mighty+ (Plus) delivers exceptional vapor quality that is potent, dense, nuanced, and flavorful – and further cooled by the replaceable cooling unit that sits atop the device.

The Mighty+ (Plus) and the Crafty+ (Plus) (read review) are not exactly cheap, but they are the best dry herb vaporizers currently available on the market. Whether you’re a beginner on a pro, these two devices should definitely be on your shortlist. 

The original DaVinci IQ was released in 2016, and its small compact design, straightforward usage, and innovative heating profiles easily won over users and made the IQ one of the best-selling devices of that year. Since then, DaVinci has been steadily improving their products and released another smash-hit, the IQ2 which features DaVinci’s proprietary smart-paths which gradually increase the oven temperature during a session. Allowing users to get the most out of their material and delivering high-quality, flavor-filled vapor.

The IQC (visit store) is the newest in this series of compact, well-performing devices. Thanks to improvements in material quality and tech. DaVinci has been able to keep the same design on the IQC but making it more functional, improving its ergonomics, applied materials – all while lowering the price by $70.

The IQC in a nutshell is a feature-trimmed version of its predecessor, not a complete overhaul. The signature zirconia pearl functions much better on the IQC, thanks to the improvements on the device’s lid hinges. Overall, the vapor quality and performance remain just as great even with several of the materials changed. It is also still compatible with the DaVinci Mobile App, so you can customize your smart-path settings to your liking. The IQC’s features and overall compact nature – definitely make it one of the best vapes for dry herb we’ve seen this year. 

If I could only choose one adjective to describe the Solo 2- that word would be “reliable”. No gadgets, apps, or gimmicks- the device has a simple and functional design with a responsive circular menu pad and an OLED display that shows the temperature setting and battery level. Its simple design might be bland for some users’ tastes – but it really does contribute to the overall ease of use of the Solo 2 (visit store). 

Performance-wise, the Solo 2 heats quickly and is one of the few vapes that remain cool even after extended use. Thanks to the lengthy glass mouthpiece, the resulting vapor is smooth, cool, and a lot denser than expected especially at higher temperatures. This vapor quality is consistent no matter how many times you’ve used the device and that’s pretty impressive considering its mid-tier price tag. If you’re a real vapor and flavor fiend, then this is the best portable vaporizer to get. 

The inclusion of 3 borosilicate glass stems allows you to tweak your experience quite a bit on the Solo 2. You get a curved mouthpiece, tipped aroma tube, and a frosted glass tube (that may be used to attach the Solo 2 to a water pipe). There are also a multitude of other mouthpieces and accessories you can purchase, including the bent glass mouthpiece, which is probably the best one to use the Solo 2.

Loading this device is a breeze – simply place the end of the mouthpiece onto the herb and then stick it into the oven, quick, easy, and mess-free. The Solo 2 also has the easiest cleaning of any vape on this list and requires basically zero maintenance.
