I haven't had the chance to use a Hot Box for long but I have used the Easy Vape and I can tell you; Don't.

Like all plastic things made in China they are cheap but still not worth it.

The worst part about the Easy Vape Is probably the cheapest part for them, the Whip. The hose on the whip is not the clear plastic tubing we are accustomed to but some terrible smelling rubber that kinks when you try and use it. You can't taste what you are vaporizing over the taste of rubber from the tube and you have to constantly fiddle with it while you are trying to use it because it kinks. How much can some clear plastic tubing cost really?

Also the digital dial is terrible. While I guess it is neat that you can set the heating element in increments of 1 degree what that really means is that every time you turn it on you have to turn it and turn it get it to 300 or where ever you want it. You only have to turn it 100 degrees if you go backwards from 400 but it is still a pain in the ass. With an analog dial you just turn it on and its whole range is 180 degrees on the knob. Really who cares what the shutoff temp for the heating element is? You regulate the temperature by how fast you inhale anyway so it doesn't really mater how hot or cool the actual heating element is.

Finally just look at it. Its a big ugly plastic. Its made in china. Many of you use a vaporizer for its health benefits and who knows what sort of crazy chemicals are present in the heating element or the enclosure or even the whip. China is not exactly known for making safe high quality products.

A Vaporizor is more than just a tool to heat stuff up. Using the Vaporizer is a distinctly enjoyable experience. There is are many enjoyable nuances of flavor that you just cant get any other way. With Easy Vape they were just trying to make a tool to heat stuff up for as cheap as humanly possible and in doing so have completely ruined the user experience.

Hot box seems like a quality piece of equipment and most importantly its made in America by a company of people who stand behind their product. Good luck getting someone from Easy Vape on the phone if you have a problem.


I'm going to have to disagree with you on that. I have an Easy Vape and it's lovely. It came with clear plastic tubing(Though it's darker now with all the smoking I've done) and I couldn't taste it at all. I only taste weed when I smoke out of it. And God forbid you have to turn it farther! That could waste hours.

Do aesthetics really matter that much? It looks like a box with a hose. I wouldn't really call it that ugly, and it does the job well. At the end of the day, it's easy to use and gets me hiiiiiiiigh. Isn't that really what the point of it is? To get high?
