I've been thinking about getting a Cartel Revenant 160. Does anyone have one and how do you like it? I love the looks of stab wood mods.
Cartel Revenant 160 Does anyone have one?

He got me! @Eskie. 
I do, as well as @Shawn Hoefer.
It's not stabwood, it's an almost soft touch (grippy) resin and its hand feel is fantastic. The Omni board sourced from Vapresso I believe, is a contender for temp control vs the likes of Evolv and Yihi imo. Fantastic hardware...it includes some sweet little user programmable curves (wattage and temperature) as well as standard faire TCR. It alos has a bypass/mech mode that literally bypasses the board and sets you up for direct to coil vaping (just be wary of your build)
It's one of my go to mods. I get fantastic battery life out of a pair of VTC5a, the vape is smooth and it has balanced charging (though I'd still recommend using your own charger) It's also update ready (if Cartel? Vapresso?) ever releases an update. It's not inexpensive, but compared to some...other mods it won't break the bank...if you can afford one, grab them while they're hot! I'd recommend, if you can, buy one from a shop or someone that can let you select a color combo...there are some that are gorgeous, and others that are...in a word: meh.
***edit: unless you like surprises lol
As Shawn stated: no justice from pics.

^^^^ what he said ^^^^
Bottom line: it's an accurate, easy to use, versatile 160 Watt dual 18650 device for $170-ish with the looks of a mod twice its price. Better than Yihi, and on par with Evolv (sans escribe) in function...
Photos do not do it justice... there's a shinmery depth to the resin...
This coming from a person that has had notoriously bad luck with Vaporesso products (dead Target and, I think, 4 dead Target Minis). I like it a lot and would buy again...

Thanks for the input. Right now my go to mod is a Hotcig R150 with an OBS Crius Plus sitting on top of it. So far it has been a flawless setup. I really like the looks of the Revenant.
Another +1 for the Revenant. It has a soft feel to it that is very comfortable. Looks awesome, a battery door that doesn't rattle, killer performance. I am mostly straight wattage so haven't played with the other stuff.
I wish it was 2 mm's wider

I found a place today that has a Revenant 160 so I ordered it today.
It has the Vaporesso Omni chip, which does custom curves. You can do it on the mod without a computer, so that's good.
I have one and it's an ugly pink and purple swirl resin. Can't argue that it feels good in the hand, but it's a ....-ugly mod.
Battery door on mine doesn't close flush - the latch must have too much play in it. Seriously? It's a $150 mod. My $40 Cuboid closes flush.
Hate to rain on the parade but I would get a Vaporesso Tarot Pro with the same chipset if you want to play with the vaping curves, and save a ton of money. Though the Vaporesso mod is prone to tipping easily, so there's that - but it looks waaaay better.

This device has become my primary driver. The Omni board performs better in TC and power mode than my beloved DNA devices ever did IMHO. The device is built incredibly well solid and stylish. I agree with all the positive comments so far in this thread.

Just bought it yesterday and I love it. The look is amazing and the vape ability is killer. Had many mods before this and so far this is by far my fav. It was between this and the Lost Vape Therion DNA 166. I decided to go with the Cartel because of the look and I like bottom fill 18650s rather than side. 18650 don't get beat up and I hate the doors rattling or sliding in my hand. I'm sure the Therion is great also though. My color scheme is very very similar to what Major posted. Bluish purple pinkish. Looks amazing. Picked up mine from Good Guy Vapes in East Brunswick. Great peeps there!
Omni chip works for me. Some people say the YiHi and DNA are better. I tried them all and I honestly don't get much difference from either one. They are all great boards. I'm a flavor ..... and can't not tell the difference at all between those 3.
