Choosing the best vaporizer can at times feel like wading through an ocean. There are multiple varieties, prices, and capabilities, but unless you are a tech expert, multiple controls and functions can be overwhelming.
So why buy a weed vaporizer instead of just smoking cannabis the old-fashioned way? Vaping is likely healthier, especially for the lungs. Additionally, vapes are discreet, create less odour, and allow consumers to optimize the flavour and potency of their weed.
A portable vaporizer is an investment, and the right one can serve you for years to come. In this list, weve curated vapes for concentrates or dried flower, as well as devices that can do both. They are all reusable, rechargeable, and produce vapour (not smoke) via combustion-less technology.
This Canadian-designed concentrates vaporizer is a favourite among many dabbers. Coming in at under $100, its a very budget-friendly option for those looking for a discreet, portable method to consume their stash.

The LED temperature display makes it easy to dial in for perfect terps, and theres a 6-month warranty to keep you covered. It comes complete with an aluminum atomizer globe, two quartz dual coils, two coil caps, a 510 thread battery, a magnetic storage container, a charging cord, and a dab tool.
