anyone know if/when these will be back?

coming from a classic reo mini, how different do they feel? i mean aesthetics, grip, position of the button, sturdiness.

i'm in two minds about whether to get a Woodvil 18490, a Reo Mini 2.0, or wait for the VV mini (i just remember a post long ago about it ;p not counting on it).

it's beautiful obviously. but i get the impression that it's more a work of art than an all day vape. am i wrong?

Rob has said he plans to make more of them. They feel incredible. best feeling mod I have ever held. Just the feel of the rounded edges and a nice button make it perfection IMO. Pretty much all of the REO's are built to be workhorses. Just take care of the finish on it and it will steam along all day and night for you. Downside is it may be a while before they are available again and are rare on the classifieds.

I like the feel of the 18490 woodvil better than my Grand or VV Grand. Can't really help you with the mini though as I don't have one, too little for me.

I love all the wood REO's! The Woodvil is my favorite. But the Woodvil 18490 is close.

They are very sturdy. The workmanship and attention to detail is superb. But they are constructed to be that "all day vape". Yes, the woods will get scratches over time. I keep mine at home. Because I can. I have enough of the metal REO's to take out.

Holding a wood REO it just feels great. The buttons are easy to use and set right where needed.

The wood REO's are said to hit harder. I totally agree. They are a workhorse of a REO.

Most people that get a wood REO fall in love with them. Just sayin...........

I'm a little late to the party, but I will concur that the Woodvils are beautiful to behold, smooth as a baby's .... in the hand,they "hit' stronger than all the others,( and I have vv grands and mini2.0's.) I'm afraid i use this wood more than even the vv grands!

It may be a long while till you can get one, but the wait will be well worth it!
