When it comes to finding a reliable, high-quality vaporizer, many users eventually come across one standout name: Arizer. Known for its precision engineering and focus on pure vapour, this brand has built a strong reputation among both beginners and experienced enthusiasts.

If you’ve been exploring better ways to enjoy your sessions without compromising on flavor or efficiency, Arizer products are definitely worth a closer look.

One of the biggest reasons people gravitate toward Arizer is the consistency. Unlike many entry-level devices that can feel unpredictable, these vaporizers are designed to deliver smooth, even heating every time. That means no harsh hits, no wasted material, and no guesswork.

What makes Arizer stand out:

Even, controlled heating for consistent results

Smooth vapor without harshness

Efficient use of material

Reliable performance across sessions

Another standout feature is the emphasis on flavor. Arizer vaporizers often use high-quality glass components that help preserve the natural taste of your material, giving you a cleaner and more enjoyable experience overall.

Key benefits users appreciate:

Pure, terpene-rich flavor

Glass pathways for cleaner vapor

Minimal aftertaste compared to lower-end devices

Easy cleaning and maintenance

Durability is also part of the appeal. These devices are built to last, with solid construction and thoughtful design, making them a smart long-term investment rather than something you’ll need to replace quickly.

Ease of use is another major advantage. Even if you're new to vaporizers, getting started doesn’t feel complicated thanks to simple controls and clear temperature settings.

Battery life—especially in portable models—is another area where Arizer performs well, allowing for longer sessions without constant recharging.

Beyond the hardware itself, choosing the right place to purchase also matters. A trusted retailer can help ensure you’re getting authentic products and proper guidance. That’s where Haze Smoke Shop comes into the picture, offering a curated selection of Arizer devices for different preferences.

Whether you’re looking for something compact for on-the-go use or a more powerful setup for home sessions, having access to the right options makes the process much easier. If you have questions or want help choosing, you can call +1 604-251-1144.

If you’re new to vaporizing, dropping £250+ on a device can feel like a big leap. The good news? The budget end of the market has improved a lot, and there are now several dry herb vaporizers under £100 that give you a genuinely good experience – as long as you know what to look for.

This guide isn’t tied to one specific model; instead, it shows you the features and specs that matter most in the sub-£100 range.

Who Are Budget Vaporizers For?

Budget vapes are perfect if:

You’re not sure vaporizing is for you (yet).

You only vape occasionally.

You want a backup device.

You’re testing different heating styles before committing to a premium vape.

If you’re a heavy or daily user, it can still be worth starting with a budget device, but you’ll likely upgrade later.

Key Features to Look For Under £100

Temperature Control

Avoid single-temperature devices where you can’t adjust the heat. Look for:

At least 3 preset temperature levels, or

A digital display where you can dial in your preferred temp in °C.

Battery Life

Nothing kills the vibe like a dead battery mid-session.

Aim for at least 4–6 sessions per charge.

Bonus points if the device uses USB-C charging for convenience.

Chamber Material

Ceramic or stainless-steel ovens tend to:

Heat more evenly

Clean more easily

Avoid unwanted flavours

Ease of Cleaning

Check how easy it is to:

Remove the mouthpiece

Access the chamber

Clean or replace the screen

Simple designs usually last longer in real-world use.

Realistic Expectations from Sub-£100 Devices

Budget vaporizers can absolutely deliver:

Satisfying vapour

Good flavour at lower temps

Respectable build quality

But there are trade-offs:

Heat-up times might be slower.

Vapour may be less dense than premium devices.

Long sessions can stress cheaper heaters.

Think of them as entry-level tools that introduce you to vaporizing rather than lifetime purchases.

When Should You Upgrade?

If you notice any of the following, it may be time to move up a tier:

You’re using your vape daily or multiple times a day

You want stronger, denser vapour

Battery life isn’t keeping up

You crave better flavour and build quality

At that point, jump up to a mid-range or premium device — you’ll already understand your preferences, so you’ll choose more confidently.

Where to Go Next

First of all, why vape anything? Why not just smoke?

Traditionally, we were just torching our bud with flames, either in a joint, or bowl or bong or bucket drop or like.. whatever. People used to smoke out of apples like that shit was cool.

The problem is, you're inhaling all of the plant matter, instead of just the good stuff, the THC.

Vaping is a revolution. Now, all you have to do is inhale the THC and leave the plant matter behind. This is by far more healthy than combustion and I will never look back when it comes to smoking ever again.

The vape scene has had some stellar advancements in the last 2 years. I've been having a blast learning about all the new technology.

Here's a rundown:

Ball vapes. This is the new kid on the block, and likely the final word on vaping for a while. Definitely raised the bar across the board and has the whole vaping community in an absolute frenzy.

And for good reason too. Now, I'm a little hesitant to try it myself just because of the strength of ball vapes, but I can't lie, the concept itself is just stellar.

So you would pack a bong just like you would if you were going to use it normally. But instead of using a lighter, you're using a device that looks like a tiny little oven on a stick. That little oven device contains some kind of spherical gems, like rubies or sapphires, like in the Ruby Twist.

Once you inhale the very hot air being drawn into the heating element, your herb gets baked, and then in turn, you get baked. 😜

But the fact of the matter is, you need to be very careful using these devices. They can get hot in excess of 500 degrees, so if you're not careful you're gonna actually burn shit.

Now, I think I'll try it eventually but for now, I'm gonna stick to my portables.

The most exciting portable on the market right now, and one I think I'll go in on, is the Tafee Bowle 2. Now, if I ever had this device when I was starting out vaping, just know that this is probably the last vape I'd ever buy.

The problem with traditional vape devices is how long they take to heat and extract vapor from your herb. The reason why the ball vapes are so popular is that they can extract in 2 hits. Well, I'm hearing you can do the same with this device.

It has a double function as a cup, and you could absolutely keep it on your desk when you're not using it because, well, it just looks like a cup bro lol.

Inside though, is the best heating technology ever seen in a portable. Only the Tinymight 2 comes close, which we'll talk about in just a second.

The Tafee Bowle 2 has an unprecedented 1 second heat up time. That means you press the button, and after one second, your vape is hot enough to hit. This is on-demand, flame-like performance from a device that looks like a Smart Cup. I don't think the vaping community has ever seen anything this fast before. Hell, I thought a 20 second heat up time was decent. But this is next level.

If you want to cash a bowl in 2 hits, this is your device. And I will have one.

Now, the Tinymight 2 offers similar performance in a different form factor. This is more your traditional vape - still on-demand heating. I'm not sure if it's 1 second fast, but I think it's safe to say that it can get you going in about 5 seconds at least.

It's flask-like appearance is deceptive enough, but if you look at it hard enough, if still definitely looks like a vape. I watched videos on this one, and it will hit as hard or as soft as you want it. I watched a video of this guy absolutely ripping a bong with it, with vapor that looked like milky-white smoke. It's a very impressive device, and I want one just to say I own one.

The Arizer Solo 3 builds on the device I've owned for quite some time now, the Solo 2. With an updated screen, bigger bowl, USB-C charging, and a new "on-demand mode" (basically a 10 second timer, not true on-demand), it has enough new features that made me want to upgrade.

The Solo 3 is primarily a sipping vape, though. If the other vapes are like taking a shot, the Solo 3 is more like having a glass of wine. It's designed to be consumed in 10+ minutes, with a long glass stem that resembles a straw, where you're just pulling a little bit of vapor at a time, enjoying yourself and getting progressively more high. It's my ideal experience. The Solo 3 also comes with included water pipe attachments, so you can use it with your bong for even more cooling.

This is a great vape for beginners, though it's not gonna blast you to the moon like the others.

The Fury 3 just released, which is a successor to the first vape I ever owned, the Fury 2. Healthyrips makes the best portables in my opinion. This thing fits in your pocket, and easy to hit inconspicuously from your palm.

It's also a session device, but with a shorter stem, and can also be used with a water pipe adapter. I will probably own one at some point, since they are so cheap and easy to use.

There are other portable vapes of note - The Storz and Bickel lineup (Mighty, Crafty, and the new Venty) but they are apparently harder to clean, contain a lot of plastic, and some are even erroring out, no thanks. Planet of the Vapes also makes a Healthyrips clone called the Lobo. It does have a removable battery, but I prefer and trust the Healthyrips brand more.

Moving on to manual vapes (you thought I was done?!)

Manual vapes require an external heating element - usually a butane lighter, but there are ton of electric heating options too - to heat up a chamber of weed without burning it.

I think the Dynavap was the first manual vape to hit the scene. Indeed, it was pretty revolutionary in its own right. You would torch the tip (ouch) until you heard the cap "click" and then you'd inhale. This offers the most "joint"like experience to vaping, and has a lot of fans.

There have been many advancements on this design since then, all with additional parts that make the vapor much cooler than a standard Dynavap. The Tempest is now the gold standard, although, I'm interested in the Terpcicle, which features an all-glass stem.

I'll stop here. As you can see, there are many options to choose from, and many different options to fit your style of play.

Do you want to get on a rocket to the moon? Get a ball vape like the Ruby Twist, or one of the quick extraction devices like the Tafee Bowle 2 or the Tinymight 2. Do you want to take your time and sip, with the added versatility of bong use? The Arizer Solo 3 and the new Healthyrips Fury 3 are good options. Do you want a more manual, farm-to-table vaping experience that doesn't require charging a device? You can use any of the Dynavap type devices, some of which have offered huge advancements from the original.
