Portable vs desktop
Portable vaporizers are battery-powered and pocket-sized for use anywhere - what most Kiwis buy. Desktop vaporizers plug in and deliver the biggest, purest vapour, but stay home.
Best overall: Storz & Bickel Mighty+
The Mighty+ is the benchmark portable. Hybrid heating delivers big, flavour-rich clouds, with precise temperature control (about 40-210C), sub-minute heat-up, USB-C charging and all-day battery in a tough, German-engineered body. Premium, but the best all-rounder that just works. See the Storz & Bickel range.
Best desktop: Volcano Hybrid
The iconic Volcano Hybrid is the gold standard for home use - fill a balloon bag or use the whip, with app control, fast heat-up and unmatched vapour consistency. An investment, but the last desktop you'll ever buy.
Best value portable: Xvape Xmax V3 Pro
Our best-selling vaporizer, usually under $130. Precise temperature control, a fast conduction oven, a ready-vibration alert, and a swappable 18650 battery. Vapour quality well above its price. Explore Xvape.
Best for beginners: Flowermate
Flowermate vaporizers are easy to use, forgiving and well-priced, with clear displays and durable builds - a great first vape. Browse Flowermate.
Best compact: DaVinci & Crafty+
For maximum discretion, the DaVinci range and Storz & Bickel Crafty+ deliver top-tier vapour in a pocketable body, with app-controlled temperatures and stealth. See DaVinci.
How to choose
Weigh three things: where you'll use it (portable vs desktop), your budget (good portables start under $130), and how much control you want (precise temperatures unlock more flavour). Vaporizing is gentler on your lungs and stretches your herb further than smoking.
