[ps2id id=’1′ target=”/]Packaging

1:

• Bland colors and graphics, nothing eye-catching, sub-par printing.
• Tough, hard to open, difficult to extract cartridge.
• Doesn’t protect the cartridge well, increasing the chance of breakage.
• Not transparent so you can’t see cartridge and oil.

3:

• Sturdy but smashable, a bit tricky to open and extract.
• Noticeable and typical, limited colors and standard graphics.

5:

• Very impressive artwork, unique design/shape/fonts, embossed/debossed, embedded graphics.
• Very strong, cartridge safe, very easy to open and extract, tamper-proof sticker seal.
• Packaging is either made from post-consumer recycled material or is itself recyclable or compostable.

[ps2id id=’2′ target=”/]Labeling

1:

• Extremely limited info (only brand name/logo, product name, THC amount, if that). Missing most product info.

3:

• Sufficient info (to use safely and trust ingredients as instructed): brand name/logo, product name, generic blend, size/weight, THC/CBD amount, lab tested, health warnings.

5:

• Extremely detailed info: Terpene profile, strain origin, where cannabis is harvested, extraction/distillation process, full cannabinoid profile (i.e. THC, CBD, CBG, CBC, and CBN), size/weight, ingredients, expiration date, batch identification number, lab testing source, lab testing results, QR code verifiable lab results, Prop 215 or 64 compliance, health warnings, company info, social media and home sites.

[ps2id id=’3′ target=”/]Cartridge Quality

1:

• Cheap, plastic cartridge, easy to break.
• Cartridge clogs up easily with no remedy, leaks, or oil spits up out of the mouthpiece.

3:

• May not be a standard 510 threaded cartridge, glass tank, plastic mouthpiece, no top or bottom rubber stoppers.
• Cartridge clogs occasionally, though easily remedied.

5:

• Cartridge stays clear and unclogged until the last drop.
• The cartridge itself is labelled with the strain and brand info, as to not mix up different carts once the packaging is tossed away.
• Standard 510 threaded, Glass tank, ceramic heating element, metal, glass or chrome tip, silicone stoppers where needed.

[ps2id id=’4′ target=”/]Taste

1:

• Doesn’t taste as advertised; unfamiliar and potentially dangerous flavors, tastes like plastic, too little cannabis taste.
• Taste of cannabis is completely masked by added flavors; doesn’t taste like you’re smoking cannabis, but a tobacco vape instead.

3:

• Vaguely tastes like the derived strain(s) but nothing remarkable.

5:

• Delicious strain-specific flavors that taste just as described; so tasty it’s hard to stop vaping.

[ps2id id=’5′ target=”/]Vapor Quality

1:

• Very harsh on the throat and lungs after 1 pull, serious coughing, extremely difficult to enjoy.

3:

• Some coughing and throat irritation after 3 pulls.

5:

• Extremely smooth, light, easy on the throat and lungs.

[ps2id id=’6′ target=”/]Oil Quality

1:

• Oil is too thin and fluid displays signs of cutting agents (glycerin, polyethylene glycols, medium chain triglycerides, etc.).
• Can see unidentifiable particles in oil.

3:

• Oil is not too thick or thin. No unidentifiable particles.

5:

• Crystal clear. Fairly thick oil, signifying a lack of cutting agents and producing a perfect hit.

[ps2id id=’7′ target=”/]Effectiveness

1:

• Feel absolutely no cannabis effects/desired medical relief, only a scratchy throat, coughing, and very negative side effects (headache, paranoia, cramps).

3:

• Produces claimed effects but requires constant vaping to maintain. Includes mild, undesirable dose-dependent side effects (anxiety, dry mouth, headache).
• Symptom relief and effects according to the recommended usage, but sub-par and/or causes slight discomfort.

5:

• Extremely effective with little use, very enjoyable, and no negative side effects whatsoever.

[ps2id id=’8′ target=”/]Ease of Use

1:

• Not 510-threaded, can only be used with a certain battery, requires frequent charging and upkeep.
• Cartridge might be overly-flashy and attention grabbing in an untasteful way, making it difficult to use with discretion in public places.

3:

• Compatible with most all vape batteries, small enough to take anywhere.

5:

• Comes ready-to-use out of the box with a disposable battery, don’t need to own a battery pen.

[ps2id id=’9′ target=”/]Consistency (3+ Tries)

1:

• What should be exact same cartridge looks and/or taste different.
• Cartridge never works or always clogs.

3:

• Works most of the time, though results might slightly differ from cartridge to cartridge.
• Occasionally get a faulty cartridge.

5:

• Cartridges have the same look, taste, pleasure and relief; difficult to tell them apart without packaging. Cartridges always work without fail.

[ps2id id=’10’ target=”/]Price

1:

• Completely overpriced, paying more for packaging design and cartridge material than the cannabis oil inside. Only buy if there isn’t another alternative.

3:

• Appropriately priced considering the size, strain, potency and detail; worth trying twice.

5:

• Fantastic taste, pleasure, and medical relief for such a moderate cost; a great deal.
• The overall experience, packaging, label/info, consistency, and customer service is so good it’s worth the price.
