Finally, I'm a full member (woot)!

Here's my NJOY review. I'm not as technical about as Leaford but, I do okay.

I've had my NJOY for about 3 weeks now and I loved it immensely in the beginning. While I don't get the massive chest and throat hit I get from me Marlboro's, NJOY's regular tobacco flavored cart is pretty damned good.

My atomizer crapped out on me and I couldn't believe I had spent so much money only to have that happen so fast. I was going to send it back when Mike at NJOY stated that he would send me a new one. Woah! A whole new NJOY? Turns out that it was just a new atomizer but, no biggie. The new atomizer is one of those with the 2 holes in it. Strangely enough though, I don't see the large ceramic portion others have seen.

Okay, the NJOY is pricey and good. Vapor production, while nothing on the level of what I saw in Leaford's review video, is decent but spotty. Battery life is what I actually came to expect from it. I am a 'vapor grazer'. I constantly vape little bits all day and my batteries will last the whole day.

The NJOY seems to take kindly to both carts and dripping. I use JC's OT smoke juice and the NJOY vapes it well, especially when dripping.

The major cons to the NJOY is well, their prices! 119.00 for the e-cig and 24.99 8-o for carts is simply outrageous. I will not EVER again pay that much for any e-cig (which is why I don't have a KISS box). I guess they charge you for all the replacements you're going to have. There's no reason why such a high priced item should crap out so quickly. Also, another big con is that NJOY doesn't sell replacement atomizers. I don't get it. If you knew that 90% of your atomizers were going to throw 12, why wouldn't sell replacements?

Okay on a scale of one to 5, one being the crappiest piece of worm filth ever and 5 being a gift from heaven, I give the NJOY a solid 3. I'm almost positive that better e-vaping experiences are coming. Because if this is it, I've wasted a bunch of money for nothing.

I found that e-cig.com (china) has the exact same product for ~$40. But I bought 20 extra carts (all menthol) and they have NO taste:cry:. None at all. I blow vapor, but no taste. I have just ordered the sample pack from JC and am looking for blanks.

My atomizer from njoy is no joy. But the replacement from china is $10, so i'll get 1 from there.

They are $110 actually, and you can get a 20% discount, so it's only like $90. and do you really want them to sell spare atomizers? they'll probably be $40 each. and yes the carts are ridiculous, but they taste awesome. hopefully one day they lower the price of them so I can smoke em regularly =/

I see no reason why NJOY should be rewarded for providing something at a higher price that I can get for cheaper and get basically the same effects. If atomizers crap out, and they do, then me buying 3x spares from Puresmoker.com is waaay better than waiting a week for NJOY to replace my atomizer.

I do admit, their smoke juice in their regular carts is nothing short of amazing. I love their flavor. However, 24 bucks/5 carts is absolute robbery.
 
Wow. I wish everybody would read this forum before buying their first e-cig. There are a lot better products out there for a LOT less. I bought the Njoy before learning of this forum too....and still kicking myself for it. For some, the Njoy is great. Not for me. I didn't like the excessive cart cost and it doesn't vape as well as other pens I've used in my opinion.

Njoy started out replacing my parts extremely fast but they have slacked off. Its been 2 weeks since I called for 2 replacement atomizers and nothing yet.

Hi DBA

To be fair to 'em, NJoy will sell you a spare atomiser for 25 bucks, but it's not on the site. I found this out during an email exchange.

You've made a good choice with the 901. Looks slick and works great!

NJoy's atomizers are about $15 cheaper than SmartFixx's atomizers & they are basically the same exact thing as they both get hteir parts from the same source I'm told- But, you really can't beat the price that Puresmoker charges- you can pick up 4 atomizers from Puresmoker for hte price of just one SmartFixx atomizer. While they just come in white at htem oment, they are still 1/4 the price and well worth picking up a few to have on hand, and quite frankly, PureSmoker atomizers outperformed my SmartFixx atomizer

I got my NPRO from njoy 4 days ago. the atomizer died on me. still waiting to hear back from Njoy. left them a email last night(friday). i do not know if they closed on Saturaday and Sundays. let me be clear i am not dissing Njoy for the bad atomizer as i understood sh?t happens. let's see how easy is the replacement process.
the truth is i really like the NPRO it produce enough vapor. battery life was ok. i only tried the carts came with the unit which are Low, Medim and High. tabacco flavor. I liked it taste really good. sadly atomizer died on the fourth day.:mad: i smoke lot less real cigs since i started use Npro. i really can see myself stop real cig all together.
while a waiting on replacement from NJOY(hopefully soon). i ordered starter kit from Puresmoker. since everyone on the forum llike it. and seem to me they have best price. i might even order a ruyan cigar next week. it looks really good. hell i think i'll start a e-cig collection.
i'll post more after i get answer from Njoy.

I am interested in the Njoy Npro. There aren't many "premium" super-mini brands. Sedansa isn't such a good choice for customers in the US because of shipping time, shipping costs, and a lousy exchange rate (currency exchange, that is, not parts exchange). Janty is great, but I am just curious how Njoy's mini stacks up to the Yentyl in performance.

The end of July I ordered 3 of the pen styles from NJoy, my husband is not using his much, I am using mine and his mother is using hers, but I am CONSTANTLY having to order replacement parts due to either the battery failing or the atomizer failing, and it is not a matter of weeks, usually just a matter of days and then waiting 4-6 days for the replacements then they go out again in a few days. For the type of money they charge, is their product not any better than that? Has anyone else had that problem? I would think it would be odd that I just happen to get that many bad parts! They DO replace them, but I would rather they not HAVE to replace them weekly!

I certainly share your experience. The very first atomizer worked well for a few days, but that was it. After that, every replacement they sent was worse than the one before. I went through 4 replacement atomizers before I finally gave up and ordered one from Cashmere - and was surprised about the excellent performance, that thing just worked (and still is) !! I mean, the Njoy customer service isn't bad, they were always quick to respond and send out the replacements, but what's the point if you just get one crappy part after another...

Alright I am noob at this I only have a mini ! But the whole idea is atomiser mesh battery mesh air flow and consistancy of battery power to the atomiser weak batteries tend to make your ecig work horribly.Some batteries make contacts better then others in fact sometimes they dont connect at all but this does not mean the battery is bad it just means atomiser and battery are not connecting the mesh is off.The screwing of the batteries in and out of the changer seems stupid to me because it leaves to much room for problems.I say the big companies come up with a click style connection thus ! defeating the imperfect air gap with atomiser mesh battery mesh and so on.These parts are made by the tons because of there abilities to be crappy products.Why not just keep it KISS.There is a way to kill all the wasted battery wars with a new updated design n all but they seem lazy mhmm.

I have the NJOY NPRO. I have had it a little over a month. The attomizer went bad at about two weeks. Had a replacement very quick. Then one of the batteries has gone bad. FRUSTRATING!!

However I have found that if you keep the cart topped off it smokes like crazy. The battery life is disappointing. I get about two good heavy hours out of one.

If it weren't for the price I would recommend it though. WHEN everything works it is a jem! I won't buy another one though.
