“My review is going to reflect both my use and opinion of the products, and the online/webstore experience. My ratings are such:
Davinci VAPORIZER IQ2: 4 stars.
Pros- Ease of use, intelligent/ inovative design, compact/ concealable, unique features, works well, stays clean due to pods, removable battery, LEDs and haptics allow easy use in dark places/ night.
Cons- Slick metal exterior prone to drops. Could be pebbled or textured. I have and use the glove, but it blocks some LED lights and tends to twist around the body of the vaporizer if left in a pocket. The battery door catch/ latch is never a one time click and done - it must be fiddled with to secure.
*Regardless, it is my favorite portable carry vaporizer. I bought another after the first was stolen.
DOSAGE POD CARRIERS: 5 Stars.
Pros - Love the concept, idea, and likeness to the Vaporizer. Holds dosage pods securely without movement well. Like how it has and holds the accessory tool securely.
Cons- Pricey for a thin aluminum case.
CERAMIC DOSAGE PODS: 2 Stars.
Pros - they keep the vaporizer very clean and are a snap to switch out from a dosage pod case for another. Good idea/ design concept when used/ filled with the Davinci grinder made for them.
Cons- Lids don't secure very well and come off during regular daily carry in a dosage pod case or in the vaporizer. Lids tend to crack/ chip for no apparrent reason without being dropped or having any blunt force impact. Expensive for what they are and do.
DAVINCI GRINDER: 4 Stars
Pros- Solid construction, magnets hold together well and separate with reasonable force. Grind is sufficient to use in dosage pods designed for this product. Easy to use.
Cons- Would like to be able to vary or adjust the grind to get a smaller grind to better fit in the pods. It works, but it's more like a 3 out of 5. Expensive. Retail, this was not a cheap piece of gear.
WEBSITE: 3
Pros- Easy to navigate and good presentation and color photos and images. Easy to read text and straightforward.
Cons- You are always out of stock. Always. I have visited your website many times just to see when something I wanted came back in stock - and while it did, the other items I was intending to buy at the same time were then out of stock. Frustrating! I'm one of those people that would rather visit a location than pay shipping. I absolutely hate paying shipping and will combine as many of my order items as possible so I don't have to. I'll even buy extra to hit limits to avoid it. I've *not* ordered many times just because something I wanted wasn't in stock and retail carriers didn't have it either. Perhaps have a way for me to buy it anyway and have it shipped to a local dispensary? That would also solve the "Not allowed to ship to your state" problem. I had an issue where I wasn't allowed to pay for items in my cart - it said: "Your order Cannot be shipped to your shipping address" - I had to contact customer service to learn that it was due to state restrictions and not a card or post office address issue. I would've liked it to say something along the lines of state law - blah blah... because I left my items in my cart and tried for three days.
CUSTOMER SERVICE: 3
Pros/cons- responsive enough to answer my questions, but lackluster blase. If I took the time to look up and contact your company I'm less than 25% of people who have been a customer - had a reason to contact the company, and then actually did so. This intereaction will be the basis of my opinions which are shared online and in person. I'm not saying a deserve a reward, but a free ship coupon code or discount towards a future purchase goes a long way. And freebies are extraordinary and free marketing. I don't drink Barcadi or Jagermeister but wore their t-shirts until they fell apart because both companies gave me promos. I do own stock in both though. And met plenty of people who saw the shirt and commented on it. I gave both companies great word of mouth feedback.
Here are marketing analytics I didn't make up:

“My initial bowl may have been packed too tight.
Second one was looser and drew better.
The battery life seemed short as I had to charge it again after one session
.hopefully that will improve
.taste was excellent. 325 to 390 setting”
“The website is very clean and easy to navigate. You can find all of thier current products and accessories easily. Making a purchase was easy and straightforward. Items shipped out quickly and arrived very well packed. I will be back for more items as needed, and will suggest them to others without hesitation.”
“This vaporizer uses 1/2 of the battery just heating up. Then you cannot finish a session without multiple batteries. The problem is that when you use multiple batteries it gets so hot you cannot touch it, let alone use it. With the glove and extra batteries this is usable, but not without. At the very least these need to be included…. Or you can make a better vaporizer without these problems. I have bought all of the da Vinci vaporizers and many other brands. This gets 5/10.”
“Ordered 10 days ago, they never shipped it! Still hasn't shipped, and the customer service question part of the website is broken. Has davinci devolved into a pure scam company? Used to make good products but now they just steal your money.”
“I have the Miqro C.. it's good, it works. Overall I'm happy with it- BUT: the batteries need replacing too often; a person has to inhale too hard to get a real hit, and it is hard to clean the inside.”
“I didn't received what i needed most of all in the packet ,the ( rubber gaskets ) for my miqro only the flat piece .please send me somes gaskets only i so need dearly. I realy would love to add a acount with Davinci ,their a lot of things we like , thank you. MRS.SHIRLEY FREDERICKS fast too get back we us same day ,wo lets do 5 stars.....”
“My new vape is not connecting to the battery properly. When I use the vape, it indicates no power in battery and shuts down. When I check the charge on the battery it is at 85%. I sent in an email, but have heard nothiny.”
“Do not get a DaVinci.vaporizer!! It is so not worth the expense! The batteries do not last. I just ordered two batteries and neither of them work!!! They are fully charged and do not work!”
“Order was not complete and no one answered my email about it. Gave it one star because I haven't actually used the product yet, hoping I don't need to return for a refund.”
“In regards to the "Dual Use Carrying Can" I ordered in this order. I will just say, charging folks for an item that most companies give away at trade shows and event advertising is one thing, I get that the bottom line is profit, and operating below cost is detrimental to business, but I would at least expect that your NAME is spelled correctly.”
