Most mods are aesthetically displeasing ...

[Big Sheepherder]

The further an e-cig gets away from the analog's shape, the more aesthetically displeasing it becomes. Take, for example, box mods. No matter how much one carves, colors or paints them, they still look like a box; and a person using one, like a kid sucking out of his juice box. Thankfully, they are a fad that won't last long. C'mon engineers, not all of you are artistically challenged.

Ah yes, but then when it comes to "box mods", there's the GLV3 ..dont hold your breath

Aesthetics aside, I want massive vapor production and the current GLVs suit my needs just fine!

I actually love my 2 box mods.
The Ali'i has a very nice feel and the way the wood is curved so that it is not boxy is just wonderful when holding it in my hand. The wood grain and workmanship is very nice.
The Phidias is my other box mod and is a bit more boxy feeling yet the workmanship and wood colors are amazing also.
Now mind you, the only wood furniture I have in my home is a headboard in the upstairs room and the legs on my dining & breakfast room chairs. I am not a wood person. I adore my wood box mods, they just aren't for every one.

I guess that's what makes horse races. Just like with juices, your taste an mine are different. But I do understand, when I first started I really didn't think I'd ever break with the analog look (I got smoketips) but now I have 3 boxes and I think they are quite handsome - two monkeyboxxes and one reo grand. I am proud bringing them out to vape - really. I also have a cameleon and a P18, two tube mods which, again, I feel are classy looking.

Function > form for me anyhow.

I want something I can run over, drop, flood, accidentally dry burn and have it keep coming back for more abuse. With cigs I didn't worry about it, I drown a pack, or crush em just run to a store and buy more...with these devices you often pay a premium for hardware, that hardware should be nigh on bulletproof, cause u can't just walk into a gas station and replace it.

Anything looks better than an ashtray full of butts, or better yet the outdoor coffee can ashtray.

They grow on you, especially when it comes to performance and what you may need from it. I too first started thinking my goodness no way am I going to carry around a box or tube "bedroom toy" looking thing. Quickly got over that and now find beauty in all of them.

I realize how hard people work on things like the GLV3, graphics included, and so I make these observations with a heavy heart ... well, only sort of. Nevertheless, the GLV3 also is ugly. It looks like a medicare-qualified device for the sick, and that is what it will resemble to others when you whip it out and take a drag. I hear they also are making a brass-knuckle version ... just kidding.

Some of us in the UK have been thinking the same thing & trying to get Imeo (GG creator) to produce an Aesthetically pleasing box mod - & even better a Juice Box Mod

All about e-cigarettes - A GG Juice Box . . . good idea or not??

[Goldenkobold]

The problem is a box mod will always be a box...so if you don't like them due to having 6 sides well..no amount of mother of pearl inlays and ivory buttons is going to solve that problem. I think the ali'i looks rather nice however.

I actually think a brass knuckle version would be sort of cool.
