I'm new to vaping, about 2 1/2 months in, and I've had exactly 2 setups, my eGo set that I started with and the MVP I upgraded to. I spend an inordinate amount of time in these forums, reading and comparing and researching, and watching reviews (the oh-so-famous pbusardo mostly), and I see a lot of back and forth about all these other mods. The thing that sticks out most in watching peoples' arguments over the Provari is that the detractors don't seem to have much to say negative about it beyond price and nebulous arguments over name recognition and status consciousness. The lack of VW, I guess, but even most folks that bring that up say it's a relatively minor issue with them. I don't have a Provari, can't afford one right now, and honestly am more likely to get a Reo if I did decide to spend that kind of money, but you have to respect a US based company with the kind of universal recognition of quality and performance that the Provari has. Not being very well off, I get what some folks are saying about price, but seriously, just about every tech product out there has expensive but super reliable standbys, and cheap yet feature rich alternatives that try to make up for lack of quality by cramming in features. Folks can argue this till they are blue in the face, but some folks will be willing to pay for the reliability and others won't be able to get past the price. Whatcha gonna do? As others have said many times, haters gonna hate.
