I have recently had the honor to test this product. I was gifted a v1 a couple years back it came with a old whip assembly that at the time was functional not brand new but was in good shape. After two years worth of heavy use and many pounds of herbs it was time for a new assembly. I found the new glass chamber to be easy to care for and clean, I found it to hold more dry flower than the ceramic chamber and I like that I can view the Vaped material to know when to stir it. The hose it's self doesn't seem to hold onto flavors so changing between strains you will taste what's in the chamber not the hose, the hose is easily cleaned with hot water, and personally I found using pipe cleaners attached to a ramrod and pulled through the hose works just fine.

Other whips are tricky to change their screens. This one lets you change your screens out easily, and they give you ceramic screens that eliminate metal from your air stream.

As they mention on the site all the parts are replaceable separately. When I broke the tip they had a replacement for that instead of making me buy the whole whip again.

When my original hands free whip broke I got this instead about a month or two ago. I find myself cleaning and replacing the screens after every session as oppose to every 2 weeks or less with the regular hands free whip .

I love the vaporbrothers unit, it is a work horse that has yet to fail me. BUT the whip... I suggest for an EZ experience to get the silicone whip and clean accordingly there will be alot less work.

PLUS you get alot more reclaim from a glass piece than from this.

I see myself buying the glass piece in the future

After using the hold-on style whip tip for 1.5 years I switched over to this style. I don't find myself stirring bowls as often but other than that it's the same quality and it retrofits my OG hose parts so I have some replacements. It will fit on a 19mm heating element but only about .5" of engagement, it works hands-free on vapor brothers.

The vaporizer is high quality and trouble free. My only problem was dropping the glass whip on a tile surface. In replacing it with a ceramic whip, I received exceptional customer service. Thanks, Vaporbrothers.
