If yr on the fence and can swing $100, I say go for it, wholeheartedly.
They are on sale right now for $99, and that puts it side-by-side with an iHybrid pure, which is my only other non-clone mod.
And it's every bit as solid. Plus you get more options for different battery sizes. He also makes a polish SS versioin, but I like the matte finish a LOT.
Couple things to consider when you first crack open the box: Mine was set up to have a longer throw, but in the spare parts bag is a brass (copper?) shim that is specifically there to reduce the throw if you want to. And I did. It's got such a pleasant, light press. I CAN stand it upright without using the locking ring, but I don't trust myself or the three rambunctious yorkies, so I always lock mine.
It's a nice, free spinning lock ring too, so it's no hassle.
Also, make sure there's an o-ring at the bottom of the atty assembly. You need to have one there, or it will leak. I discovered this the hard way.
All said and done, it's worth every penny. Now I just need to unload my iChybrid and Ikarus clones to make this purchase easier to swallow. But I've been eyeballing these since before his big move from Hawaii, so I'm glad I finally have one.
