REO's with beautiful wood grain, I think anyone would be hard pressed to call them ugly, who doesn't like beautiful wood grain?

think of how nice and comfortable that would feel in your hand-especially on a cold day it would be nice and warm

I just got an innoken MVP 2.0 and while it isn't nearly as good looking as a REO i am liking the box mod, it doesn't roll off the table and feels good in my hand. I see a REO in my future as soon as i learn to build coils

I've sometimes wondered if REO people tend to be a bit non conformist, just a theory
You'll love the Reo! Non conformist? Maybe. Reoville is one of the easiest going parts of this forum. Reonauts' generosity and willingness to help is unmatched.

Your crazy man. Have you got a Reo? For a guy, they are manly. You can actually explain them to your buddies and they just get it. Reos just click when you have to explain them to people. Its a functional mod that looks manly & beautiful in a man's hand. But put the same exact Reo in a woman's hand and it looks beautiful, the curve for your knuckled fingers, the sheer amount of metal surface area. Gorgeous. & NO ONE can say it looks like a phallus. It looks like a damn juice box, walkie-talkie, remote control, detonator!!! Gotta love Reos.

The wood ones are gorgeous. I just want to feel one in my hands, I bet they are so smooth. All the painted Reos look like candy to me. That probably stimulates the same regions in my brain that control impulse which is why when we feel like we want a new Reo, we go look at all the colors, they look like Jolly rancher candies, and we impulsively buy them lol.

this is a fun thread! pro-Reo or con...

i haven't been vaping that long, but went thru the (more or less) usual drill--cigalikes->eGos>Vamos->Provaris. as well as some tubular mechs.

after getting my first Reo, i never thought about getting another mod. i now own a fairly large number of Reos. i lost count somewhere after 12, both wood and metal...

for those of you who think Reos are ugly, i'll just paraphrase something i've posted before : "if you can find anything that feels better in your hand than [a particular Reo model], you should probably marry it"

I love the way they look, but imr more of a form following function kind of guy, and dig straight lines and unadorned aesthetic

That's what I like about them too, clean modern design and colors. They're like an eames chair.

I think I'll get mine in red.

I always wanted a Red mini. Like a little red apple juice box. So nostalgic. The Grand I just bought in the classifieds is like a backwards tuxedo. White with the black crinkle door. I thought the crinkle texture was going to have more rough nooks and crannies. Not at all. They are delicate. I like it a lot. If there were a design magazine for e-cigarettes the Reo would have a regular showcase article in every issue I'd hope. With macro shots and all. Its such an interestingly simplistic yet complex and thoughtful mod line.
