I'm sorry you're not diggin' it. Just out of curiosity, considering you don't like the look and feel, what was your deciding factor in ordering it. Please don't take this question wrong. I'm just genuinely curious. And please don't feel obligated to answer. If any of us can help please don't hesitate to ask.
Unfortunately, I bought it based strictly on reviews. I never had actually seen one until mine arrived today.
I was somewhat concerned about the shape and size, but was assured, it was not as bad as it appears. Wrong! This thing is just plain uncomfortable in my hand.
I was concerned about having to “squawk” to keep from getting dry hits. This is something that I suppose you get use to, but I will never uses it enough to get use to it. I would rather look at a tank, see juice, hit it. Not much guessing involved, or did I take 2 hits or 3?
I don’t like the voltage adjustment, wheel. Can’t tell if it’s turning or not. I would have to grow out my finger nails to use the on/off switch.
The door rattles and makes it sound like a cheap plastic mod.
This thing puts out tons of vape, I will give it that, but that is all I will give it.

I'm sorry to hear the Reo isn't a good fit for you, texasguy4. Treebeard is right though...in case you decide to give it another shot, do let us know if we can help you work it out. 
I must say I have to give credit to the the OP for posting his feelings here & most others for their responses. This could have gone in the wrong direction in similar cases on any forum specific subject. Tex has his opinion which is respected. Not everyone likes & enjoys the same things in life, absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Your so right, just like e-juice, everyone has different taste. With so many people absolutely loving the REO, I have no doubt it is a top quality product. Unfortunately it's just not for me.
As long as your not smoking that is all that matters reos are not for everyone
Update....I said I would give it a fair shot, so after 5 days here's my thoughts....
WOW!!!!
My opinion now is a total 180 from my original thoughts.
There is still haven't got totally use to the feel, but it's getting more natural.
"Squanking" has become second nature.
The real deal changer came yesterday when I left my REO and both Provaris' in a hot truck for a couple hours.
When I got back, both Provaris w/ Protanks, were flooded and I like to have never got them going, but the REO worked perfect (tip was hot on the lips though).
I could make this long and drawn out, but the bottom line is....I see another REO in the very near future.

Call me sappy but I shed a tear reading this post.
No pushing, no bashing, no negativity from Reonauts.
Time held all the odds.
Your fair shot made it possible.
Welcome back!
Texasguy, bro, that is off the chain. I am glad decided to give it a go even in though there were more cons than pros for you initially.
That is one, if not THE best resurrection stories I have ever seen in REOvil bro.
Glad to have ya among us. Drop in more often too

Wonderful news Tex. Hopefully the Reo will grow on you as you use it more. As we said before if you need any advise or help pop in ask away.
Great turn around bro! Glad you stuck it out and kept trying! We're all here if you need anything!
texasguy4, you've been on my mind, and you just MADE MY DAY! I'm so glad you gave it a fair try before you just threw in the towel. If you're used to leaving it in a hot, hot car/truck in Texas in the summer, I'd imagine that (although it worked just fine) it got pretty hot to hold. Did it turn into a handful of hot metal? Karen (nerak) makes little covers for our REOs (free for the asking) that will make it more comfortable to grab on a Texas summer day.
