It's unique-looking, is ridiculously easy to fill, and vapes well when it's working. Sadly, mine developed a leak around the middle where the tank screws onto the base. I believe the plastic threading on the bottom of the tank wore a little, resulting in a not-quite-perfect fit that allowed liquid to seep out.
Vendor offered to replace it but I bought the Pyrex Aro instead. If you're gonna get a clearo from Smok, that's the one I would recommend. It's robust, sharp-looking, has a Pyrex tank (vape whatever you want with impunity!) with a metal sheath to protect it. Draw is a bit on the airy side, but it tends to be with BCCs, I've found.
Just my experiences. It did look cool, though. Like a lava lamp.

Yep, I have been ultra careful when re-assembling the tanks to avoid that and they are still going strong after several months of being in rotation with some of my VVV carto tanks. Other than the delicate plastic threads on the tanks, I can't say enough good things about the tumblers.
Yes they are pretty cool looking..i think they would look great on MVP.
I've seen some reviews on youtube about them and they seem to like it..so i think i will pick one out and be extra careful when assembling (thx for the heads up guys). Also they have a coil that can be rebuild so that's a plus too.

Yep, it uses the same heads as the Aro. I actually find those heads slightly easier to rebuild than the Kanger protank heads because of the slightly wider cup slots, which allows me to use a larger diameter mandrel on which to wrap the coil (a 12 gauge needle fits just about perfectly in these slots).
Long as you avoid damaging the threads or over-tightening the tank onto the base (this can easily displace the silicone gasket in the base and may also lead to damaging the afore-mentioned threads) then you ought to be alright. One other thing I would note: Because of the unusual base width and shape, the Tumbler will have problems fitting onto anything without adequate clearance around the ego threading. By way of example, I would need to remove the beauty ring on my SVD to use the Tumbler with it where the Aro and Mini Protank would fit just fine.

Now that's just all manner of awesome right there. I had no idea you could rebuild these things! Can you point me to any instructions specific to these types of coils? I know about the rebuilding section of the site, I just have no idea what these are called (is it EVOD, V.Tox, Aro???).
Here is the video for Kanger Evod/Protank rebuild...it's basically the same for all bottom coil. You can rebuild any coil you want.
Oh..and these specific ones we are talking about are called..Smoktech ARO & Tumbler & HBC & RBC & MBC & PBC coils
Thanks a bunch! These coils are used in all the BCC tanks I have (tumbler and V.Tox) so I'm going to give this a whirl. Keeps junk out of the landfill and also reduces my cost over the year so that's awesome.
There's also a thread here in the clearomizer section called Protank Microcoil Discussion that discusses these rebuilds in detail, everything in there can be applied to the Aro coil head for rebuilding purposes.
and they are really cool looking! lol (and I've been following THAT thread and have stuff on order
