So, I've waited a few weeks per a member's suggestion before throwing up a review of The Vapor Room, where I ordered my first e-liquids. Having tried most of the liquids by now, I have a fairly decent idea what I like and don't, so I feel it's time. Now, you'll see one aspect to this review that isn't typical, as I truly don't believe in rating throat hit. There are way too many variables that I've found which affect TH and I don't think rating a liquid on TH is right. From battery voltage to strength of draws, to even time of day; the TH just changes. I'll also not be rating on vapor production for somewhat the same reasons, as I have yet to find my own ideal cartomizer/battery combination so my ratings on those may change later. I'll vote on liquids strictly on taste and re-up factor, or my preference to buy them again. Both are 10 of 10.
That said, here's my run down:
Customer Service:
Before I even placed an order, I noticed Jess was shown to be online through their site's help function. After asking several newbie questions, Jess helped me out enormously, from cartomizer suggestions to her preferences for flavors. Post order, I received an immediate confirmation followed by an order update and a shipping notification through stamps.com the very next day.
Rating: A+
Shipping:
Now, this is a bit tricky since I placed the order on 12.30.10. Given it was during the holidays, and with New Years Eve coming up, I was expecting a bit of delay. I received the shipping notification on the 31st, but given that was a Friday with NYE coming up, I assumed it'd be longer than a few days. According to the stamps.com site that was referred to me, the first update on the order was on 01.04.10, having been processed in VA. Order arrived two days later to California on 01.06.10.
Packing was superb. In no way do I think they will every get a return due to damage during shipping, as everything was surrounded by bubble wrap:
They even bubble wrapped the bubble wrapped containers, as you can see the two middle liquids are self-contained:
Here's my complete order unwrapped, all laid out:
Flavors from left to right:
Blueberry Cinnamon Crumble, Apple Pie, Ry4, Cherry, Waffle, Peanut Butter Cookie, Chocolate Fudge Brownie
Rating: A (Credit due to holidays)
Flavor Reviews:
Blueberry Cinnamon Crumble:
This is a flavor that I've read about and was excited to get already, which is why I asked them to give it to me as their free 15ML promo they have. I was overly excited that I chose it, as I ended up loving this one. Given it was the free one, I didn't have a choice as to the PG/VG nor nicotine levels, and I'm left to assume they either gave me whatever they had or based it on my order's choices of 75/25, respectively, with 18MG of the stuff we crave.
The color is a light pale gold, not heavy looking at all. The smell out of the bottle is a nice mix of cinnamon and more faint of blueberry with a touch of the muffin batter smell, oddly enough. If you've made blueberry muffins or loaf, you know the smell.
Take your first vape and that changes real quick, as an immediate sweet taste of blueberry takes over your mouth. Not overpowering by any means but just right. As you exhale through your mouth, you taste a slight cinnamon after taste. Exhaling through your nose, you can slightly "taste" the cinnamon but you more so smell the blueberry sweetness.
I fell absolutely in love with this liquid. In fact, for the sweet lovers out there, I highly recommend trying it. I even went so far as to bake a loaf of blueberry muffin bread to "compare" against (or at least thats how I justified it) and the two went remarkably well together.
Taste: 10/10
Re-up Factor: 10/10
Chocolate Fudge Brownie:
This one was a free sample given to me for ordering, which was also one of their promotions. Honestly, I'm glad I didn't order it myself. From my very first inhale, it tasted like a heavy dark cocoa flavor, almost like the baking type. In no way did I think it resembled any type of brownie I've ever had, and if I did have some that tasted like this, I'd definitely ask who made them what they put in the mix. I'm not even going to get in to going more in to this one, as I gave up on it, despite a few tries at different times throughout my weeks of vaping. I have now, in fact, thrown away the cartomizer that had this liquid in it, as it was very heavily flavored and I knew it would efinitely overpower anything I put in it.
Taste: 1/10 (One point for the cocoa)
Re-up Factor: 0/10 (No way)
