Thought I'd do my first review here on bestecig's mini and penstyle since no one has done it yet. This is my first time writing a review so please do excuse me if its not up to par. My stuff arrived today. Pretty fast considering it was delayed. It took about 5 days (including a weekend) in total.
Pros :
The cigs came with a nice box with thick, solid foam which offers pretty good protection. The finishing was pretty ok to me since I'm still pretty new to this and don't have much to compare it with. The batteries fits ok and the finishing on the cigs were pretty standard. I ordered black and I do like the look and feel of it.
Pretty good and easy draw on both the pen and mini. Vapour production was also pretty satisfactory....no, make that very satisfactory. Since its still new, I can't really make a fair judgement but as of this moment, I'm pretty happy with it. One more thing is the batteries came charged so I could start puffing away right away.
Cons:
Ok. The biggest peeve i have is that quite a number of stuff is missing. My eliquid and my cigar did not arrive. It was really disappointing as I really wanted to try the cigar after reading Nazareth's review. I am going to contact the seller tomorrow to see what can be done.
As for the flavor, I got high flue-cured for the cartridges. I really hate to say this but I did not particularly enjoy the flavor. To me, it has very little to no throat hit at all. The taste was rather wierd but I suppose that is rather subjective. Pretty good smoke volume though.
One more rather wierd thing is that I have taken the cartridges out to squeeze for juice and I found this really strange white patch of something at the bottom of the wool. I have attached a picture of it so you guys can have a look. Its not paper. Feels more like latex. Hopefully its nothing harmful.
I did enjoy my purchase. The price is pretty attractive and the performance of the cigs makes it pretty good value. The seller seems pretty helpful and accomodating. He even imformed me that my package was delayed. Hopefully I can get my missing items. Overall, if something can be done to improve the taste and throat hit, I would say its a pretty good buy.
*btw, perhaps the seller (Beci, I think) might like to consider sending a sample to some of the veterans here for a video review. I think alot of us newbies make judgements based on the reviews and comments from this forum.
