Got the starter kit from ST a few days ago. Shipping was very fast. The kit is great so far. I haven't had a real smoke in 3 days. Stopped just like that!! So I'm lucky to use ST and stopping smoking. Thank you ST. |

Happy with my ST e-cigs.
Order refills and you get another batt for free. The cost of the refill carts is less and $2 and you always get free shipping. If you ever have any problems with any of your batts you can send it back & out comes another batt replacement in your next order for free. I've gone through this process of sending back for a batt. replacement without any serious hassles. The kit comes with 2 batts & in future orders you get another batt for free, so I'm collecting them, nothing wrong with having too many batts, b/c the worst thing is to have a batt lose power when you need it if you know what I mean.
Okay on to the product review.
this product works well, good vapor for me, so many flavor choices. I enjoy the cafe set and my fav is menthol. I never smoked menthols, but it's an intense mint flavor that you feel go down your thoat for pretty good full thoat hit. Not bad, you can feel it nicely almost like a cig, but better b/c you don't smell, you don't ever burn-->no fire, you can take as few or as many drags as desired, and you can do it after a meal indoors or anywhere. Since buying these I don't crave nic any other way, no cigs, no chewing tobacco, no nothing but my ST. Battery life is not really a factor b/c i have enough batts. The only thing is having to charge them is a bit annoying, but hey nothing is perfect.
I told my doc about these...he said you are no longer using tobacco products and that's a good thing, then he went on to say it's a step in the right direciton. You will not be disappointed going for this device. |

I've been smoking for 30 years.. started when i was 17 cause it was cool to smoke. I've been smoking marlboros, on the average, a pack a day since the age of 17.... well with the price of a pack of smokes in today's economy being outrageous, I figured it was time to quit giving my money to the government to burn(they get more than 50% from the sales of smokes)and decided to give ecigs. a shot. I got my ST few days ago and have not had a normal cigarette since. Don't even crave for one.. I crave to smoke and the hand/mouth thing and this brand does it.. i take a few puffs and i felt like i just smoked a regular cig.. can't believe.. there is no reason to smoke those nasty smelling things if you can get your hands on a this ecig.. best 60 bucks i spent towards smoking. i would highly recommend this product for anybody wishing to quit smoking regular smokes..and you can smoke it inside a restaurant.. right after a meal. In Short: this prooduct works and is a good buy for both the price and quality.

A number of my friends use ecigs and I was very skeptical about them. I have tried some of my friends ecigs and they burned my throat. Then I thought what do I have to lose trying. I found this website which offered a number of choices in ecigs. I researched each one of the top brands. I even called customer service to ensure I would get good service if I needed it and to inquire more about their products. ST was most helpful; totally explained everything I needed to know but did not push their product on me in any way. I then ordered the starter kit, full flavor. The order arrived in 3 days! I have been using this e-cigarette for over 2 weeks now. This product does not burn my throat like others I tried. I have been smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day and within these 2 weeks, while using my ST, I have cut back to a half a pack a day. I love this product. I am ordering Clover flavor today and going down to the next level in nicotine. If you are interested in quitting smoking or just wish to use an ecig, I highly recommend this e-cig. |

These eCigs are pretty good... at first my wife couldn't stand the Menthol full flavor cause it tastes as though there is Cloves in it, and she HATES cloves, but once you get used to it, you can't tell anymore... and they taste WAY better than the 21st Century we were smoking. Haven't tried all the flavors yet, but so far the Menthol is the best. The cartridges say they are the same size as the 21st Century ones, but run out much faster. Having the choice of flavors and strengths and the better taste makes these eCigs much better and so worth the money. But in the long run I really do feel that they are about the same price as the others out of the store. The free shipping and the lifetime batteries make me feel that the company is a better company than the others I've seen as well.... THANK YOU this product! |

Thank you ST and e cigs for the opportunity to use this wonderful product. The last kit that I had one of the batteries stopped charging. I do enjoy the taste of its flavor, however, when the cartridge is almost done it seems to have a burnt taste to it. Also, I wish there was a better way to reach customer service in case of a default with the ST k4t. Over all, I am pretty happy with the cigarette, but I wish I would have sent it back at the 30 day trial so I could find something I better appreciated. I am still having trouble coming off the actual cigarettes.

This is my first e-cig pack and I am very impressed! They satisfy my need to smoke even with the 0mg nicotine carts. My husband thought I was crazy to try them, but he's sitting here next to me "borrowing" on of my e-cigs! Overall this is a great way to try e cigs for a very reasonable price.
They ship very quickly...I have placed two orders with them so far and the package was in my mailbox within 2 days both times. And free shipping!
They have a good selection of flavors. I got a sampler pack of ten flavors and ended up really liking the ones I thought I wouldn't: orange, banana, and pinapple. I really enjoy hookah, and these flavors are very similar, without all the bad smelling clothes and throat irritation.
The only bad things I can say is I go thru the carts a little too quickly. It's easy to just keep puffing away. And they look too much like an actual cigarette, especially with the red led.

A friend was using E-cigs and it caught my attention. I have been a social smoker for the last 10 years, but hate the smell & congested feeling from smoking too many cigarettes in one day. My husband quit a few years ago & I guess I am just not ready to quit yet.I really hate smoking around him, because I am sure it is hard to be around the smoke when your not smoking. I've only been using this device for a week, but actually prefer it to the real thing now!! Love the comvenience of just changing cartridges when it is empty, battery lasts throught they day & one cartridge lasts me about 4 days! No more stinky clothes or hair & the convenience "smoking" whenever & where ever you want! |

I had been a smoker for 25 years, stopping for my 2 pregnancies & then starting up again. I am one of those smokers that actually enjoys and loves smoking, but hates the smell, so I have never smoked in my home. My husband had been asking me for a while to try the e-cig & I kept putting it off because I didn't think it would 'feel' the same or that I would like it as much as a cigarette. I finally ordered a kit from ST & will NEVER go back! I did research before buying & the reason I chose this brand is because of their prices & the lifetime warranty on their batteries. Once I received my kit & tried it, it was love at first puff, & never finished the pack of cigarettes I had, just threw them away. I love that I can smoke in my home because there is no odor and not a danger to my kids. The flavor of this ecig is excellent! I order the Menthol and Menthol Light.
this e-cigarette is the best company you can go with, the prices are great, the lifetime warranty is wonderful, great flavor, great battery life & the customer service is EXCELLENT! You cannot go wrong with this e-cig. |

I received my starter kit and vanilla atomizer last evening and couldn't wait to open it. It is a life saver. I quit smoking 3 months ago, but still find it very hard. I used it tremendously last night and since it came with 2 batteries, my husband who is a smoker has decided to give it a try to quit smoking. So glad I found them. I got the vanilla non-nicotine flavor becaue I was worried about any nicotine addiction starting up again, but I also ordererd the ten pack of the ultra with 6mg of nicotine for my husband. He smokes full flavor cigs but said he enjoyed the ultra e-cig. I was worried it wouldn't be strong enough for him but he used it all night and now takes it to work. The only problem I see is if he goes through them too quickly. Since it doesn't ever 'end' like a normal cigarette, I've suggested taking 10 hits and then putting it down. It was a great buy and I heard great things from friends who got them . ST. I have no regrets and highly recommend them to anyone. |

After doing tons of research online, I was very skeptical about using an e-cig. ST was what I decided to give a try. This is the only e-cig I have tried, but am completely satisfied with it. I didn't think it would really compare to a real cigarette, but since getting it, I have not smoked a real cigarette (1 week), and in general, feel 100 times better!! There is a slight trick to it though. When I first used it, I would naturally inhale hard. and it didn't produce a good hit. You have to hit the e-cig slowly and it works GREAT!!!! I'm done with real cigarette's!!! No more ashtry's, smoke, rolling tray's, stink, always looking for a lighter, etc...
This simplifies smoking and seems to have reduced my cravings overall!! Very simple and satisfying!!! |

My friend who is a medical professional got me introduce to e-cigarette although I have been reading about it for some time. I was not sure of whether to try or not. My friend suggested me to give it a try since there is nothing to loose, rather to gain, in terms of cutting down the part of the habit that affects pulmonary system. In other words, the smoke and associated chemicals can be cut at once and only nicotine would be inhaled. Initially, I was skeptic and gave it a try by purchasing cheap product from one of the websites from China. The idea was to evaluate. I got a 3 piece product with 10 cartridges and a charger under $5. It was sort of OK effect wise. But one gets what one pays for. Despite of claiming that one cartridge last around 150 drags, it would last only around maximum of 30. Although I am not a chain smoker and used to smoke only 2-3 regular 100 mm cigarettes a day, one cartridge would last a day max. Many a times I would have to pull another cartridge out. I wasn't satisfied with the experience. Then I purchased this product as suggested by my friend (he also uses it). Thankfully I did. The introductory kit comes with pre-charged batteries so that one can start using immediately. Charge lasts longer as I have charged just once in last ten days (I smoke less). In fact, I am still using the first cartridge. On an average, everyday, I may have smoked around 30-40 drags. I get the effect fine. So, overall experience is good and claims made by this device company appears to be valid in my experience. On top of that, they provide lifetime warranty and replacements. They have many a flavors. In fact, I used to dislike menthol before and have purchased Cowboy (Marlboro) full flavor (16 mg)... But my friend gave one menthol full flavor cartridge he purchased and a I kind of liked that too.. I think next I shall go for an assorted one, just to taste all flavors but of 12 mg.... The habit has become kind of play now for me... Thank you ST... |

I purchased my ST starter kit about a week ago. I ordered on Saturday, and it arrived on Monday! The quick shipping was very impressive. I have been using my ST set since then, and have cut down from a pack and a half a day to 2 cigarettes a day! I found their "Cowboy" flavor (Marlboro-esque) to be a little sweeter than I really like, but the Coffee flavor is excellent! I like my ST so well, I have recommended to 3 other people so far - one friend tried my e-cig, and ordered her own starter kit today.
I ordered the USB Passthrough accessory, but the one I received didn't work - no problem! Customer service was friendly and helpful, and are sending out a new one tomorrow.
I have no comlaints so far, and will continue to advise smoker friends to try this ecig! |

I have tried the Blu, Premium, V4L, and V2. This e-cigarette has impressed me with battery performance, consistent cartomizer performance, all with free shipping and lifetime battery guarantee. The Blu was just so "not enough", and I never got a response from customer service when contacted. The Premium invested in, only to have the batteries replaced 3 times in 4 months (customer service good; product not so much). I have no complaints about this e-cig, and would definitely recommend them. |

So far, I am very happy with my ST kit! The batteries are long lasting and powerful. The flavor cartridges (I got Cowboy b/c I used to smoke Marlboro & that was the recommendation)leave a little to be desired. I like a strong flavor & throat hit and this product is decent in that respect. Ovaerall, a good value. I like the lifetime warranty on the battery. I have had batteries quit after 2 months of average use in the past, so I am hoping for a longer life from STs. |

I didn't know anything about the electronic cigarette and wanted to try it. I hated smelling like tobacco and it was stinking up my apartment building. So I went online and did some research and found that this device had the best reviews. I bought a kit and tried it and was so amazed!!!! I wish I discovered this earlier. Now I can smoke in front of my brother's new born kid without having to leave the room! I don't stink up the building anymore and I don't have to look for a lighter anymore. I love it. No more smoking all those harsh chemicals that are in cigarettes....like carpet glue! I hope i get to fully quit soon but, like i said, i was amazed and fully satisfied with my purchase from ST!!!! |

I've been using ST for over 2 years now and love it, the battery life is only about a half hour to an hour but I have plenty of them so not a problem.
I have sent back several batteries that have quit working and get replacements quickly and at no charge to me. Anytime I've had a problem they are always quick to respond and give me a solution or suggestion of what to do. Really like the variety of flavors they offer also and the great prices for them. Had problem with not much vapor when I first got them but by keeping my batteries clean and taking a slower longer draw the vapor is great. Have recomended them to several people. Great Product. |

This product was purchased as a gift for my 82 year old father. He said he would never use it, but we were able to get him to try it. It took all of 5 minutes for him to be sold. I had to come home and order another starter kit and refill. He loves the taste and the feeling. He said cigarettes just tasted awful anymore and he was very excited to be able to smoke these anywhere. He actually took us all out to dinner so he could smoke. LOL My Mom who has asthma and would sneak cigarettes can now use these guilt free. They are both very happy and we are as well not having to deal with the second hand smoke. My Dad said it is the best smoke he has had in 45 years. Mom said it was wonderful to not have an awful taste in her mouth. |

Received my order last week and I can say that I am very pleased with the order. I ordered other ecigaretes (sorry don't want to bash on them) they were great until I didn't get this brand. Vapor is better, quality of battery is much better and longer... and on top of that all they have Cowboy flavor! Cowboy flavor is somewhat close to real deal (m...) has more of a sweet taste/feel m... anyway am glad I went with this ecig this time. This is my 4th week w.o any real cigarettes.. tried chantix,gum and patches nothing outperformed the ecig... I guess I have more of a habit holding cigarette than nicotine addiction... |

This is my first e-cig and I have to say that I am so happy I tried it! Not only is it less expensive than traditional smokes but it is better for you and you can use it almost anywhere. I bought the ST because of all the wonderful reviews, lifetime warranty, free shipping and the website was so much easier to understand than other brands. I have a back up pack of Marlboro Ultra Lights but since I got my ST I haven't been tempted to light even one. It does take a little bit of getting used to but now I prefer the taste over traditional smokes. The tobacco flavor has a sweet taste to it. I also ordered the Marlboros but have yet to receive them. All I can say is don't hesitate to order from ST, you won't be disappointed! You will save a lot of money and feel a lot better!!!! |

WOW! Totally impressed with this product....read TONS of reviews before deciding this was the best deal on the market. Batteries came charged,just like they said and the flavors are GREAT. I was always a menthol light smoker, and these 12mg menthols suit me just fine! I did order the variety pack too, just for some fun in my smoking experience, and they are pretty tasty - loved the almond and looking forward to the chocolate and vanilla. Not a huge fan of the fruity flavors, but they did taste like cherry and strawberry.
I have smoked for 40 years, always trying to kick the habit - now, I don't HAVE TO! I can still enjoy: the feel of a cigarette (a little heavier, true), the taste (although, I believe the taste is BETTER than an analog), a good throat hit and the exhalation of 'smoke' WITHOUT all the nasty smell and smokey room!
My family is much happier, they aren't being poisoned either! After just a week of this device, I am absolutely thrilled and literally breathing easier already. No more cough every morning when I wake up, or even throughout the day!
I just can't say enough good things about this brand - I have tried two others and was not impressed with throat hit, flavor or the amount of vapor - this ecig ROCKS and I am recommending to all my smoking friends.
BUY this e-cigarette if you are tired of having to step outside for a smoke, the smokey smell in your house, car, on your clothes and breath......if you want a healthier smoking experience......this is the answer people - do this! It is SO WORTH IT!
I didn't rate customer service because I haven't had to work with them yet -
would be awesome if this e-cig came out with a charging carry case like some other companies have............Please?

I started by doing a lot of research into online Electronic Cigarette Makers & Sellers. ST stood out to me because of their 'Bare Bones'& 'Plain English' way of marketing their product. Their Website was easy to use & comprehend. Not too much there to confuse or mislead people into oblivion. Their 30 Day Money Back Guarantee along with their Life Time Warranty (on batteries) also made it appealing. Their two piece (cartomizer & battery) design was also something I was looking for. Pre-filled & no mess or hassle for a first time user. The price of $59.95 was also right down my alley as far as being what I was willing to spend to give their product a try. I think, a -great deal- for a package that gives you all you need to get started. The two batteries was also an incentive along with the USB adapter. They even chipped in an extra cartomizer for a total of 7 cartridges to start me off. The shipping was fast! Three Days! & after trying their product, I couldn't be happier so far. The throat hit is nice (a little sweeter than my regular brand & not as harsh), so it will take a little getting use to. But over all, it is very much like a real cigarette. I can see myself smoking nothing but these soon. Everything seems solidly built & am happy with my choice. But the thing that sold me the most on their brand, was their cartridge prices. Ten cartridges for $19.95 (each cartridge equalling 1.25 packs of cigarettes) made it easy for me to compare mine to theirs. Unlike others who make claims of more & offer half the cartridges, at 5 per count, for around the same price. And...they also offer a deal of $2.00 off each order, when ordering 3 or more packs of 10. Made it easy to see the realistic savings I would reap, up front. So, in short, I look forward to ordering their USB Passthrough & having a long, long relationship with their company. They deliver a solid, fair priced product, that is easy to use & should help me get rid of my old habit - very quickly.

I ordered 3 ST starter kits (1 for me, 1 for a friend, and 1 for my dad) All 3 of us have been long time smokers..especially my dad who is 76 years old. Although my friend has not started vaporing yet, my father and I are really impressed. I personally went from 1 1/2 packs a day down to 1 pack every 3 days. Today I have only had 2 regular cigs and am not purchasing anymore...just vaping away! I used to smoke Salems and did not care for the menthol flavor cartridge, but the cowboys and the coffee flavors are awesome! Started out with 16mg and will drop down mgs as I go along. We are very satisfied at this point, and everything has worked as it should.
Thanks this product!

I must say,that so far,I am very pleased with my new this device E-Cig.I ordered the starter kit,and within 3 days,it was in my mailbox.They advertise that both batteries come charged out of the box,but I had to charge the second battery because it was dead,but this was no big deal.I selected the 16MG regular flavor,and it tastes very smooth and has a slight sweet background flavor.The vapor this E-Cig provides is pretty decent,although I cant speak for other brands,this is my first E-Cig I have ever purchased.I smoked analogs for about 7 years and I quit smoking 6 months ago,but I terribly missed having my morning and after-supper cigarette,so I chose to try an E-Cig rather than go back to regular smelly cigarettes,since I refuse to smoke those anymore.The battery life seems decent to me,I can smoke on and off all day on a single charge.The cartridges last me about two days each.I will try other flavors,but for now,I'll stick with the regular flavor.I got my kit on a discount special for $39.99 and free shipping,and I cant be more happy over that,its a very good price for what you get.Even the original $59 price is good compared to other brands of E-Cigs I was considering (spending $100 and up is common).Anyway,I am very happy with my ST,and I enjoy the fact that I can now have my relaxing cigarette,minus all the chemicals,tar,secondhand smoke,smell,ashes,ect.I'm also pleased with their lifetime warranty on their batteries,with a free replacement if the battery quits or dies,no other brand can offer this kind of warranty,not that I know of.I cant rate their customer service,since I have not had to contact them yet,and hopefully,I wont have too.I very much recommend this E-Cig to anyone wanting a cheaper,and safe way to smoke,or should I say ''Vape''.I'm very happy.

I tried a couple different brands of e cigs. So far these are my favorites. The first e cig I tried was a 3 piece but have to add juice and carry juice with me was a pain in the butt. I would often have the liquid leak out. I have a store by me that sells FUMA and they were good but had no flavor options. So I decided to try this brand and I ordered them on Friday and they arrived on Monday. I ordered the starter kit and the variety pack of cartridges. I am a menthol smoker and their menthol tasted great. I also like the apple, strawberry and cherry. So far the batteries last long and charge quicker than the FUMA. The cartidges last about the same but I get 10 from ST for the same price as 5 from FUMA. I have not had to deal with customer service but so far they are my favorite. I am still having some regular cigarettes at work but hope that changes this week. |

I ordered during the $20 off sale and was able to get my kit for $39.95. Super fast shipping. Great deal. After using the smoke for about 2 weeks I am very satisfied. They claim that 1 cartridge is 1.25 packs of cigs but I am not too sure about that. The cartridge seems to go dry before that but maybe I am smoking it more than I think. Vapor is pretty good. My buddies eGoT (or something like that) puts out more vapor but the ST is much more convenient. Overall I would recommend this smoke, especially if you can get it for $20 off. |

I had been in the market for an e-cig for a while, but the number of choices and my tendency to put off doing research kept me from diving in. But after about a year of smoking a pack a day, the money I was spending started bugging me enough that I decided it was time.
After finally finding a decent website that had a high enough number of user reviews to make me feel like I could make an informed decision, I decided to go with this ecig. 1) Because of the high number of positive reviews, 2) because of the lifetime warranty, and 3) because of the price.
I ordered on a Wednesday, received the next Saturday, and haven't bought an actually pack of cigs yet (and don't plan to). Granted, it's been less than a week that I've been using the kit, but I'm very pleased, and I feel that I make a great purchasing decision. The box the kit comes in is useful for carting around all the individual components when you head out of the day. Depending on how I'm using the batteries, they last between 3-6 hours, which I think is great (I puff pretty frequently). They charge pretty quickly, and the warranty on them gives me piece of mind.
I ordered the menthol 16 mg with the kit and a variety 16 mg pack. I enjoy all the flavors quite a lot (except maybe the regulars, which taste a bit stale compared to the other more vivid flavors). I've been switching between many of the carts, two are spent, but they seem to have a good life to them. I feel satisfied with their consistency and amount of vapor.
And I honestly love the vapor experience. I don't miss the traditional smoke from a cigarette at all. I like feeling the stream of hot vapor hit my tongue as I inhale. I like holding it in my mouth before breathing it into my lunges. And my body already feels more health after going half a week without all the carcinogens and cravings for traditional smokes.
I'll certainly update this review if anything goes awry, but as of this moment, I'm a big this e-cigarette fan. |

OMG, I have done so much research up to this point on several E-cigarettes. Not to mention reading many among many reviews here. I found this site most hopeful with honest and detailed reviews. My experience with ST has been very good. Keep in mind that you still need to have the mindset to want to quit. This is not a miracle tool to quit smoking. I like the variety of flavers you can get with your e-cig, and even though I am not a coffee drinker, the coffee flavor tip is my favorite. The only con I have is that one of my batteries isn't working quite upto par. I seem to suck just air half of the times I take a drag. I will be calling customer service about this today. I hope my review helps you to make the right decision on what brand is best for you. Good luck in your fight to stay healthy!!! |

After doing hours of research and deciding between PG and VG, i decided to pull the trigger on ST. I was looking at Safe Cig initially b/c a friend was using it, but after reading reviews about their poor customer service, i moved on. Then, i was looking at ProSmoke and was about to buy that product, but then i read that VG, when heated beyond 280C, it turns into acrolein. Also, PG used in e-cigs is of food-grade quality and commonly used in inhalers and is deemed FDA-safe. So, i decided to take another look at e-cigs that use PG. Plus, i also like a good throat hit and i've read that VG doesnt provide as good a throat hit as PG. Therefore, i looked at others and compared them to ProSmoke. So, i looked at this e-cig based on the fact that it got the most reviews on here and that they were mostly positive. The icing on the cake for me with this product was two-fold: its lifetime warranty as opposed to ProSmoke's 1-year warranty; and this device's battery uses the KR808D-1 model, which is a highly regarded model for vaping and it also means you dont necessarily have to buy cartomizers from ST, but rather you can go online and just search for cartomizers that fit the KR808D-1 model. B/c of these reasons, i chose this brand. However, ProSmoke might possibly use the same model, but i dont know.
I ordered the starter kit for $59.95. Delivery was very fast. The batteries came charged right out of the box. After connecting the cartomizer to the battery, the weight is a little heavier than a cigarette. Its about 1/4 longer and slightly bigger in diameter than a cigarette. The throat hit is that of a Camel light and the vapor is a little less than a cigarette. The key to using it is to take slow drags, not fast drags like you would on a cigarette. If you keep this in mind, then each drag is adequate. I havent felt the need to smoke a cigarette since.
In conclusion, i would recommend this ecig to anyone looking for an alternative to cigarettes.

Got the starter kit from ST about a week ago. The price and reviews I had read convinced me to buy this brand. Shipping was very fast. Normally I have been smoking Marlboro ultra lights. I ordered the kit with 12 mg regular cartridges. The kit comes with 6 cartridges, 2 batteries, and charger unit (s). The first puff was immediate. Hit the back of my throat and actually made me cough; was not prepared but am used to it now. Amazing how the tip lights up with each draw. As you exhale, smoke vapor comes out of your mouth. Will try different flavors. Great product! |

My smoking experience with ST so far has been excellent. I recieved my starter kits for me and my fiance within 3 days. They were fully charged when we got them and was able to start vaporing right away. I am a menthol smoker and she is a regular. The price is great and so is their products. The menthol is smooth like a Salem. I liked the cherry flavor and can't wait to try the other flavors. She said she really likes the coffee flavor. I work twelve hour shifts and the battery last the whole day before I had to switch. That is awesome. The cartridge lasted the whole day and half of the morning the next day. Just puff a few times here and there is doing the job instead of trying to smoke an actual cigarette. ST may have been lower on the list of reviews but after researching many websites about all the different e-cigs, I decided to go with ST and very glad I did. The battery and cartridges last a very long time. There is a lot of vapor that is produced and I am able to blow smoke rings and such just like real smoke. I have not had to contact Customer Service yet but I am sure they will do really good so I am giving them full rating also. |

I've been using this product for 3 months now and love it. My favorite flavor is the Cowboy. Good vapor, easy drag and throat hit using 16mg full flavor. Customer service has been responsive and cooperative. Best part about this product is it's complete compatability with V4L and V2, which makes options, flavors and accessories that more enjoyable. Smoking, but not really smoking, is enjoyable again!! |

I haven't used the kit very long, but I have no complaints as of yet. The taste is better than any regular cigarette I've tried. I went with the light cartridges (12 mg) which to me seems pretty strong still. And the drag is pretty easy. I received the order within 2 days of placing it.
The first brand I tried was the 'Smoking everywhere,' wasting over $100 to find out it's a huge scam. After that I didn't place much hope in the electronic concept. The thought of feeling super light-headed again after each inhale wasn't all that appealing.
But after a lot of homework, I'm glad I gave this one a chance and would def. recommend it. |

I have been a pack a day smoker for about 10 years now and finally decided I needed to take a step towards quitting, especially considering the outrageous price of cigarettes in my state. A friend of mine bought the blu cig and while I liked it I wanted to do my own research and eventually decided on this e-cigarette based mainly on the number of positive reviews, as well as the price. So far I am very satisfied with my purchase. While I still really want a real cigarette now and then, the experience is similar enough that I haven't had to buy a pack since I got my ST. I would recommend this brand to any one interested in trying an electronic cigarette, especially considering their warranty and my experience with their customer service up till the present. |

I have been a pack a day smoker for 20 years. A friend of my took the plunge and bought a different ecig....he let me try his and I thought,"yea I could smoke those." I didn't care for how hard you had to puff to light his sooooo I did a lot of homework and chose this e-cig. I was very pleased when mine was much better than his.
I live with my mother who is also a smoker and when I told her I bought some she rolled her eyes and thought I was nuts. Well guess what? She tried mine and LOVES it too!!! I have been telling everyone I know how great these are!! |

I used to smoke of e-cigs called Eliten and they would wear out quick and the vapor would go down as it ran out. I have started using ST Brand they are the same amount of vapor each time you puff right up until the battery runs out or the cartridge does. The one thing I did notice is the flavored cartridges even though they have lots of selections don't last as long as the regular flavor does because I ordered Regular ,Vanilla and Coffee. It is a better made product and I also ordered the portable charger that works very well. All in all I would recommend this product I am happy so far and I have had them for about a month going to do an order for more cartiages right after this review. The product also feels better built than the last one I used there charger was the same kind of set up real cheap though.

I've been a smoker for about 30 years. I was skeptical about whether I'd enjoy e-cigarettes. I haven't wanted to quit somoking because I enjoy it so much, but I've been thinking I should for my health and because we're trying to sell our house-- I didn't think the cigarette smell would help us. I tried out an e-cig at a mall kiosk and didn't enjoy it. I decided to go online and found numerous positive reviews about ST. Since they had a money-back guarantee, I thought I'd give it a try.
I ordered my starter kit, along with a "variety pack" of cartridges on Saturday night, and they were in my mailbox on Thursday. My first day I wasn't too sure, but I'm on my third day, and I rather like them. I used to smoke a pack a day of menthol cigarettes, and I like the menthol ST. It has a nice taste. The cartridge lasted more than two days, and is still working. I wanted to try another flavor, so I changed the cartridge to apple. Nice flavor, too.
At first, I couldn't quite figure out the vapor thing, but I've finally figured it out--a quick, short puff followed by a longer draw does it for me, and it gives the same sensation that real cigarettes do.
I haven't had any trouble with the batteries so far, but if I do, I love that ST will replace them for free. Another plus is that they have free shipping. A big bonus for me, and if the cartridges come as quickly as my starter kit came, I'll be a permanent customer for sure.
I love that I can smoke in the car with my husband and don't have to put the window down. I like that I can just put the cigarette down when my hands are busy with something else. I'm a paper crafter and smoke while I work, and often the cigarette would burn half down in between drags--what a waste of money.
This is so much easier than I thought it was going to be. My first day I was thinking I'd want to buy a pack of "real" cigarettes as back up, but by day three I feel like I'm done with them and can stick with ST. |

I received this product earlier this week. So far I am very pleased with it. I received it three days after ordering. Ordered additional cartridges 7/21 and have already received them. I am extremely pleased with the order processing promptness. The menthol is rather mild, but still a very pleasant flavor. I ordered the variety pack this time. Will post a review on them after I have had a chance to try them. This is the first e-cig I have purchased, so I don't have anything to compare the battery life to. The two batteries get me through the day though. Just swap them out and put the low one on charge. There's enough nicotine in them to curb my desire for a regular cigarette. I can already tell a difference in how my lungs feel. Had started waking up during the night coughing. Have slept better this week. Have slept maybe an hour less each day and wake up feeling much more rested. Wish I had made this decision sooner!!! |

I spent a couple of weeks researching the ecigg and it was well worth it. I tried a few others and was unimpressed. this device is absolutely a superior product. Along with my starter kit I purchased extra cartridges in the Marlboro flavor but they were a bit too harsh for me. The longevity of the battery is outstanding and the output of the vapor is truly impressive. I might have to order another kit soon as my friends keep borrowing my spare ecigg!
If you're looking for a good ecigg to help you phase out your real stogies, or even cut back, I highly recommend giving this brand a try! You have nothing to lose. |

I love the STs. I bought them for my son who had been using Njoy from the local gas station. They worked fine but had to keep buying lots of refills. They were going dry too quickly. The STs last longer and taste more like real cigarettes. They arrived very quickly and have had no issues with the cigarettes or the charger. No issues at all. We bought the starter kit with Menthol and refills of the Cowboys. The Menthol taste correct and the Cowboy taste like a real cigarette. Very Very happy with the product. Great Price and Great Quality!! Could not have been better. Now going to buy more Menthol, because it was so good. |

Before buying this ecig I was using the E-health cigarette. The cartridges didnt last long and the batteries as well. It was also a 3 piece system. It was costing too much to keep using. I have been using this e-cigarette for several days now with the same cartridge and stll going strong. I do believe they have sold me on their brand and no others. If your looking for a great quality product this is the one to buy. |

Completely new to ecigs, I had only tried one once in the mall. Did some research and narrowed it down to this device due to the low cost of the starter kit and simplicity of the website/ordering mostly. Free shipping a big plus too. The starter kit seemed like a good deal, order came very quickly, so that's what I based my customer service and cost/value 5 star ratings upon.
Overall I'm pretty satisfied. This brand system is a surprisingly good simulation of a real cigarette. My only issue is that there isn't that strong "throat hit," which is the most satisfying thing about smoking real cigs for me (or, put another way, it sometimes lacks that "hit" feeling that quenches my craving. But it is actually not too far away from the real thing, especially the first few hits of a fresh cartridge, or when you've set it down for a bit. I find waiting a bit longer between inhales helps a lot).
As a result, I haven't made the full transition to ecigs, and have still been smoking my regular cigarettes, except I have definitely cut down in the 2 days I've had this ecigs (by more than 2/3 a pack at least). I find I supplement my regular cigs with this e-cigarettes, i.e. about every other time I get a craving, I use the ecig. So that's a start and an improvement I'd say!
My guess is a lot of it has to do with learning how to get the most vapor out of each inhale, and how to "prime" it, etc. I find I have to take a longer, more forceful inhale than a regular cigarette, but it may be that switching to a stronger or different cartomizer would provide that deeper throat hit I'm looking for.
Also, the battery life seems sort of short to me, but this may be because I don't really have anything to compare it to (and, for all I know, it's actually a long battery life). But from what I've read online, the starter kit lives up to its name in that these are starter batteries-- other companies and/or this e-cig offer longer-life compatible batteries.

I was very interested in e-cigarettes as a way of helping me stop smoking. I investigated all the major brands and finally decided on this product for several reasons. First, their overall rating at several sources, including this one, was high. Then the price compares very favorably to other brands, plus free shipping. I placed my order and received it very quickly. An additional order was also quickly received. So far, this device is working great with helping me stop smoking. When I first got it, I was smoking the equivalent amount of my normal smoking rate: 1 pack per day. I have noticed that I after 2 weeks, I'm down to the equivalent of 1/2 pack per day. I'm so glad I found this product!! |

This is the second brand that I tried. I'm sticking with this brand because of the price, the fast (and free) shipping, and overall product quality. One cartridge seems to last about as long as a pack of cigarettes. Very impressed with how this product functions. Got the kit three days ago and love it so far. The taste is a little different from a regular cig and takes some time to get use to. As far as this ecig e-cigs, I am completely glad that I chose them after much research. They are an excellent way to try and quit smoking all together .I was suprised how much like a real cigarette they are. They have a great throat hit and the vapor is excellent. Unlike the first brand that I tried the vapor doesn't decrease with each drag. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase. I would definitely recommend this e-cigarette to anyone interested in a smoking alternative to real cigrettes! |

at first i was hesitant in buying the ECigs from ST at first because i tried the ones at the local mall and several other brands. When i first received the starter kit i was truly excited for my change from regular cigarettes to electronic. my first impression was that i was amazed at how similar the feeling is to actually smoking a cigarette. it wasnt harsh and it felt like smoke in my throat. the taste was excellent, every single flavor tasted real, my favorite is the coffee. the battery life is really impressive and the overall experience was good. As a smoker transferring over to e cigarrtes was actually very good, now i don't smell like smoke and can practically smoke anywhere i go. i will deffinately refer this product to all my fiends and the ones that have tried it are seriously contemplation on switching over. very excellent product havent smoke a cigarette all day :] |

I have tried atleast 4 other brands and by far this was the best one. It weighs less than the others I tried (V2 cigs was one of them). The actual cig feels more realistic. With the other brands they felt more like plastic coating then a paper coating. This was not a huge difference but enough for me to notice. The batteries last a good amount of time, and make sure when you first get your starter to kit to charge each battery 6 to 8 hours. Customer service is awesome they will replace a bad battery really quick and guarentee their batteries for life. They have 13 flavors and the only brand I have seen with a real cig flavor (cowboy-which is marlboro). And you cannot beat the price. Shipping was really fast.

I bought these cigarettes because I wanted to quit smoking. It has been 2 weeks now and I've officially stop buying the real stuff and puffing on the e-cigs. I pretty much quit the tobacco and noticed that I've broke many habits that pertains to smoking tobacco cigarettes. I felt like my addiction and urges has gone down drastically and I'm on my way to a full commitment to quit smoking. I definitely recommend these e-cigs to anyone that wants to quit. The e-cigs has a pleasant taste and the vapors make it feel like the real stuff and it's up to you how much vapor you can take in. The battery life of each e-cig lasts for about a day and a half before switching out to the fully charged e-cig. |

I had my first ST e-cig on Feb 16, 2010 and haven's even wanted a "real cig) since then. I started smoking at 16, quickly became a pack & 1/2 s day smoker, At age 64 I quite with out anything but ST, Smoke Tip is a great cig and a great company. I've tried several other brands, some had better taste, some had a little longer battery life but not one had better customer service. ST's service is the best by far than ANY of the others I tried. ST batteries are warrantied for life, when one of mine goes bad I simply e-mail Kisti, return my old one I usually get a new one in a couple of days I also return cartridges that have leaked, or are defective in some way. I've never been aked why, just given return info and send them back. They e-m you with updates, promos and they have a forum you can go to get all kinds of info. The cost is very reasonable, the vapor is really good and the battery life is better than most brands.
How long the cartridge and batery lasts has a lot to do with how you smoke. They also have a referral program -really good one!! Just really can't say enough good about this company. My big hope is that they will come out with a Camel flavor, for now reg & menthol will have to do (& they do, very nicely.) They also have great incentive plan, the more you buy at a time the lower the cartridge price is.
I.m a ST customer until I quite altoghter - not a likely happening. |

After decades of smoking, my wife and I recently made the move to e-cigarettes. We tried three different brands (guided, in part, by the reviews on this site) before making a decision on which to stick with. My primary criteria was wanting a brand that tasted like a real cigarette. Her primary criteria was variety of flavors and colors. One of the brands we tried was this device and it was a very good product.
We purchased the Starter Kit and an additional 10 pack of cartomizers. The Starter Kit came with two batteries, six cartomizers and a two-piece wall/USB charger. this brand ships free of charge via First Class mail. ST delivered the kit in 4 days. Everything was correct in the order.
Both the "Regular" and "Cowboy" cartomizers tasted like genuine cigarettes, which was a pleasant suprise. While other brands have been close, this was the only time I literally couldn't tell the difference between an e-cig and a real cigarette on taste alone. Both had full and pleasant draws.
We found this ecig e-cig to be smaller and lighter than it's competitors. This meant that there was less adjustment needed to the way we held and used their product. Some other brands are so heavy/long they have required a substantial change to the way you hold and use them compared to real cigarettes.
The smaller size did lead to decreased battery charge life compared to other brands, but also led to quicker recharging. I found the batteries to last me about 1/3rd of a day each and the cartomizers to last about 2/3rd of a day each based on me smoking at the rate of 2 1/2 packs per day. My wife got longer use out of both as she is making the transition to e-cigarettes more slowly than I am.
In the end, I chose this e-cigarette as my preffered brand. It is as close to the real thing as I can find and is one of the best values we saw. My wife chose Vapor4Life (she preferred the variety of flavors and colors they had), but this e-cig was a strong second choice for her. |

I bought the ST starter kit over a year ago and am generally happy with their product. They have the best warranty in the business and their products are of good quality.
I wasn't completely satisfied with the vapor from the cartomizers in the starter kit. So I did some research and found the "Turbo Cartomizers" from Vapor Nine. They fit on the ST battery and have great vapor and flavor.
Mix and match the two together and I got the unbeatable combo, the best battery and great cartomizer.

My husband and I ordered this product after getting ripped off by another company which was a scam. I wasn't expecting much after our bad experience but this device is great!!! It comes with two batteries so hubby and I split one order. The tips seem to last a really long time, they've never leaked and the batteries stay charged well! We haven't made a total transition to this brand but we will soon. We just ordered some refills, I'm pretty excited to try the vanilla! Highly recommend this ecig, you don't have to sign up for any kind of monthly plan, and they don't randomly charge your credit card like some of the other eCigarette companies out there! |

I also ordered a variety pack of cartriges so i broke open a peach gave a good shake as reccomended screwed it in and began to inhale. It had a very nice flavor and was not harsh at all. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of vapor I exhaled. I havent had a cig in about 4 hours and so far so good. I think the ST could be the answer to me decreasing my day to day smoking. I am very impressed with the product so far and will leave another review after 1 week. |

I did alot of snooping around about which brand of E-cig was best. ST seemed to get the best ratings so I placed my order for the starter kit and a pack of grape cartridges (16mg). I started my quest to stop smoking last Friday with nicotine patches and satisfying the motions of smoking with my e-cig. It is going quite well so far. ST closely simulates smoking a real cigerette. Now I just have to make sure I don't forget it's an e-cig and throw it out the window. An excellent product that is totally worth the money |

Received my ST on April 12Th,2011. Four days and four real cigarettes later and I threw the real cigarettes away. I really love this product. Very convenient no more looking for lighters, no more smoke smell, no more dangerous chemicals. Also seems to be less expensive than regular cigarettes. I would definitely recommend. My wife will be purchasing one next. Before this product a pack would last about a day and a half so if you smoke heavier it may be a little more of an adjustment but I have not had any bad cravings or withdrawals. I recommend the travel charger and to start the highest level of nicotine. |

I bought my first e cig at a gas station. It was OK and I definately loved the "freedom" it gave me from regular cigs. I could sit at my computer and "smoke"! When my cartridges ran out and the gas station doesn't sell refills, I went back to reg cigs. YUCK, was my first reaction to using a reg cig again. I went online and did some major research on e cigs and the different brands. I chose ST. I love, love, love my ST. I got regular flavor (came with the kit) and the variety pack (which I didn't think I would really like) LOVE the vanilla! If you are thinking of switching to an e cig, ST makes a great product! I am currently back on reg cigs because I didn't order my refills before I ran out. I also made the mistake of ordering less nicotine than my regular cigs and I used up my cartridges faster than I should have. New cartridges should be in the mailbox today and I will be making a point of reordering a few days before I run out. Shipping is fast. I live in Texas and it takes, at the most, 4 days to get here. I do think my USB charger is bad as I have a hard time getting the lights to match up and the tip of the cig to flash to let me know it is a good connection. But, I have the USB charger than came with my gas station cig and it works great! Other than that, ST is awesome and I will be reordering! |

I had recently started chantix to help me quit smoking. I was told to smoke through the first week and then stop. Well I missed having my hands busy so my dr suggested electornic cigs. I was a lil sceptical but I decided it couldnt hurt. I chose ST b/c it had the most reviews and they were all good. I must say its the best thing i have ever done! i love my ST! i can smoke it where ever i want! i got the 6mg menthol and love the flavor!!!! I think next time i will try the variety pack and see what the others taste like! If i had one suggestion it would be a cig pack look alike to carry the cartiges and extra battery around! |

I was a heavy smoker for over 15 years and have tried to quit on various occasions with no success. I've tried the gum,losange,patch and cold turkey and nothing stuck.While at a local chevron while buying my usual packs for work i saw a disposible E-cig.It was actually alright but sparked the idea.After researching various products i purchased this device.Excellent product i fell in love with it instantly.I love the variety of flavors and the price is awesome. Peach ,Apple and regular are wonderful and taste great.Im very pleased with my order and will definantly recomend it to all of my smoking friends.If i could put down those cancer sticks and switch to this brand im sure many else can as well. |

Great product. I was a pack a day smoker for 10 years. I tried quitting many times using nicotine gum, patches, cold turkey, etc. My wife got me a starter kit from ST.com and I haven't had a real cigarette in 5 months. I smoked Marlboro Lights and have been buying the "regular" refill cartridges. I wish the battery life was a little bit better and I have had a couple defective batteries but the customer service department is AWESOME and they always help me when I have an issue. I have recommended this ecig.com to a ton of people. |

My dad wanted to try e-cigar so he could quit smoking. After researching for few hours I found this website and saw that this e-cigarette brand has good reviews. Ordered one on Monday, received the kit on Thursday so fast shipping. After few tries my dad said he's really happy with it. He only had it for five days but hasn't touched a real cigarette so far. |

I spent like $126.00. But I got alot of stuff and it was worth evey penny. Let me say this is a must. My hubby is only 47. But got a flu and ended up on a ventalator for 5 weeks. Main reason he was a smoker. He had a 5% chance of living. But he make it. He was a vey very heavy smoker. DR. said if you smoke again you will die.He came home and smoked. Back to hospital. I did alot of work to find the best e-cig. THIS IS IT. He has not had a cig since he started ST. I smoke them now. It is truly a life saver. May I say I wish I would have thought of this 2 years ago before my dad died from cancer.DONT THINK ABOUT BUYING IT JUST BUY IT!!!!! |

After careful research I found ST to be the brand to buy. This site provided user feed back to help in my decision. All of which seem to have been spot on. An extremely good value when you compare other brands. They claim to have High Capacity Cartridges that deliver over 250 puffs per unit, equal to about 1.25 packs of traditional cigarettes. And I believe it! No issues with the amount of Vapor.
The Atomizer is built in, you get a new atomizer with every replacement cartridge. This is VERY important and guarantees a fresh, full delivery system every time you use it. No need to buy expensive replacement atomizers all the time - they're built into every this brand cartridge! The only way to go.
2 Long Life Batteries & Charger with this ecig to make sure you never run out of power. |

I just got my ST today with an extra sorted flavors bought separated and I like it!
Sometimes reading reviews can make you think if it's a real and honest comment but I can assure you my is.
My wife is and registered nurse with a very good discipline on health life style and seeing me smoke was like slap her in the face to a point that I have to avoid smoke in front of her. She was only concerning about me living a healthy life and not die slowly with a lung cancer which is one of the most painful and sad death.
Anyhow, I showed her my ST kit today and she read tons of information about it and now I can smoke even inside the house and see a smile on her face as she also enjoy the aroma from the coffe and other catridges flavors.
The best test was done right after lunch when most of us "smokers" crave for a puff right? I took 10-12 nice and deep hits of vanilla flavor with a nice smooth bite effect on my throat and voile!!! I felt like smoked a whole cigarette inside the house with no stinky fingers of horrible crap taste in my mouth.
Almost 30 minutes later still feel the nicotine in my system like I got from an analogue cigarette!
I will come back feel days later for update as my intention is to never ever touch a damn analogue cigarette again.
Cheers!!!

I had used a very cheap electronic cigarette before ST (a $20.00 one my husband bought at a local smoke shop) and I was always disappointed with it; you had to inhale hard to get a good drag. That's why I came to ecigarettes365.com to compare the different electronic cigarette manufacturers. I decided to go with ST because it had Lifetime warranty, each cartridge was equivalent to a 1.25 packs, the price wasn't too high, and it had good consumer reviews. I received my starter kit just a few days after ordering it. I also ordered the variety cartridges which has every flavor they sell. I have been very satisfied with ST; especially the fact that you don't have to inhale that hard to get a good drag. I have tried a few of the flavors; cherry, strawberry, peach, and almond and so far they are all good. The batteries seem to last 2-3 days before you have to charge them which isn't too bad. Overall I am happy with their product and would recommend it. |

I have not touched a real cigarette in four days which is a very big thing for me. ST is working for me. i am a very heavy smoker and they only go up to 16 mg. so i ordered me some e-juice 26 mg. it is working, satisfies my cravings, will lower down to 24 mg in a week or so, then 18 mg, then this e-cigarettes 16 mg, and hopefully all the way down. i did not think it would really work, but, it is! i am so proud of myself. i dont smell like smoke anymore. my family is happy. i have some of copd so i had to do something. i would recommend this e-cig. they are reasonably priced, lifetime warranty on the batteries. the only problem i am having is i smoke alot so my battery is not lasting long. so i have ordered another one and the larger stronger battery. will see how that works for me.i have a tiny funnel that just so happens to be the same size hole that is in the cartridge and that is how i put the juice in. it works! i got my e-juice from ECIGS ONLINE: ecigbestsave . com. i like the strawberry and the usa mix (marlboro flavor. i use the VG (they say it is not as irritating to your lungs). the starter kit has everything you need in it, although if you are a heavy smoker i would get the larger battery as well as a extra battery,i just purchased a extra charger also so i can have one ready at all times. i read all the reviews and that is how i made my decision. ST seemed to have the best results and more reviews than some of the others and more affordable. |

This is my 3rd week with ST. Wow, I'm impressed. The vapors are plentiful. It is like smoking a cigarette but much more enjoyable because of the flavors. The menthol is more mint, so I prefer the flavors. I also got the car charger & extra long white battery with orange tip. Battery takes 2 hrs to charge. Seems to last 4-6 hrs depending on how much you smoke. 1st time I used it, it lasted all day. The long battery does look and feel more like a felt pen, but worth the longevity between charges. The flavor cartridges are easy & great all in 1 unit to replace, no fuss or mess. The service is excellent, there are nice people there (grin). They ship quick, you receive in 3-4 days. No forced sign ups for auto delivery which is very nice. The variety flavor pack is wonderful to try flavors, just wish menthol/regular were not in it, seems a waste. Would have preferred to try the grape and clove in variety pack.So far I'm using this as a fill in for cigs. I haven't given up cigs totally, I think there is other addictive chemicals in cigs that are holding me back cause I still like that cig in between.Is it normal to have a kick in back of throat when inhaled? Sometimes it makes me cough and I don't cough inhaling cigs. Maybe I just have to get use to smoking it a bit different. I just ordered another long battery and more flavors. Can't wait to give up cigs totally and start saving my money and health. |

I am very happy how fast the order came in. Ordered March 29, delivery April 1. The flavor of the vapor is not harsh it has a nice smooth flavor, and plenty of vapor. My one battery had a short life. It only lasted 2-3 hours off from the charger. I called this product customer service and they are sending a new one out right away. I like the way when after you get enough and then you just put it down, no worries about burning or cleaning up the ash trays. No smell on your clothes. I had been smoking Marlboro Light 100\'s or a local store brand Smoker Friendly light 100\'s around a pack a day. After using this device now for almost a week no urges or jitters. Using Cowboy 12mg tips. We orderd 2 starter kits with one 10 pack refill. It would be nice if the variety pack that is offered could be customized to what flavors I would like put in. |

My wife started the E-Cig thing 2 weeks B4 me and after two weeks she only had great things to say about this brand so she ordered me one and then she ordered my son and his roommate one. This is the only E-Cig we have used and they have worked out great. They put out a lot of "smoke" and they feel just like you are getting a hard hit on a real cig. I refilled my old fillers with E-juice that I bought from my local smoke shop but its not the same, this ecig has a much better taste so I will only buy there refills from now on.
P.S. I bought a backup E-cig at my local smoke shop just in case I ran out of filters for my ST and wow I hope I will not have to use it again. |

After quite a bit of research online, I decided to go with this e-cigarette because of two factors: their competitively priced starter kit and refill carts, and their much praised customer service. My initial order took a bit longer than I anticipated to arrive, and when it did, it was only partial. I knew from the specifications on their website that some of the items were backordered, but the dates kept being pushed back. When one of the two batteries in the starter kit wouldn't hold a recharge, I had no trouble whatsoever getting an exchange from them. They always reply to my email requests very promptly. I am concerned about a lot of their products being out of stock, and will line up another website as backup just in case. That being said, my experience with e-cigs so far has been quite positive. I have cut down on the regular smoking by about 50 percent and intend to quit smokes altogether within days. I found that the regular size batteries only last me about 3-4 hours though, so I intend to order a 350mAh fairly soon.
I am (was) a Marlboro Reds smoker. The regular 16mg's seem to actually have a bit more of a "hit" on the back of my throat it tastes like Marlboro :). I would definitely recommend e-cigs to people who want to cut down on smoking or quit altogether. |

I just received my ST kit on Saturday after ordering on Thursday. Very fast shipping!
The product works very well. I normally smoke about 1.5 packs/day of Marlboro Lights and today is going to be my first day of no cigaretettes. The product works very well and I actually prefer to use these instead of actually smoking.
I tried 3 flavors. The full flavor 16mg that come with the kit, the 12mg equivalent of Marlboro Lights, and there 12mg Menthol cartridge. Of all three, I prefer the menthol. Those taste really good.
I recommend this kit! |

I am new to the electronic cigarette and was abit skeptical. After a bit research, I went with the ST starter 16mg menthol and was delightfully surprised. Good design,good price,tip lights up like a real cig and produces clean vapor without the harmful ingredients. Came with a usb/wall charger and the usb light changes color from red to green when when charged fully. In quite surroundings, the water bubbling sounds when inhaling might take some getting used to at first but yeah, toss your real pack and ashtray out, Welcome to the 21st century and good health. |

I chose this brand because of this website. Based upon the ratings and criteria presented, I believed this ecig had the best price, product, shipping and customer service. I was right! I have been singing the praises of this e-cigarette since I received it. I have recommended it to many friends and some of them have already ordered it.
I have smoked for 20 years and this e-cig has virtually eliminated my need to smoke regular cigarettes. I still smoke 1 regular cigarette a day but I am confident that will stop soon because I feel like crap after I smoke it. I guess it's just the habit hanging on.
There are many benefits to this product such as, I don't smell like cigarettes anymore, I don't cough, I have more energy, the color has returned to my cheeks, I don't have to go outside to smoke and it's cheaper than smoking. I used to smoke half cigarettes because I didn't want a whole one, which was a waste. Now I can smoke as much or as little as I want. I highly recommend this device. Try it. You have NOTHING to lose. |

I received my ST kit 4 day's ago. I love it! Yesterday I ordered the charging case and 2 batteries for my wife. I told 2 people at work about this and they both placed orders for their own ST kits. I hope the Electronic Cigarette manufactures can keep up with what looks to be a BOOMING market. On the down side, it looks like ST is having problems trying to keep up with the demand on replacement cartridges. This should not discourage you from buying. They do seem to get at least the standard blends restocked quickly. If they don't have what flavor you want you could get them from one of the other compatible companies. |

Really enjoying my ST. I had not actually planned to quit smoking, but it turns out I seem to be! I got it and used it a little. But still had cigarettes in the house, and kept smoking them. When they ran out, I chose not to buy any more and just used this brand. It is satisfying my needs, I don't feel any real cravings, and I still have my quiet time outside that I didn't want to give up. I always smoked outdoors, and felt if I quit I would not be able to sit out there with coffee but without a cigarette. Have made the transition to this ecig with my coffee and it works! But the amazing part is I am using it so much less than the amount of cigarettes I smoked, about 10-15 a day. Now 'smoking' the equivalent of maybe 5 cigarettes a day, or less. With no smoke, some nicotine, no tar and without the other chemicals the cigarette companies put in. The battery is lasting a REALLY long time, I guess because I am using it so little. I like the light on the end and the amount of vapor produced. I am very happy with this product. I may switch now to the lights (have the Regulars now), for it does feel a little rough on my throat, and I used to smoke Ultra Light cigarettes. |

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! I started off with Green Smoke and wasn't too satisfied. The battery doesn't last very long. It was difficult to smoke. It took able 3-4 to get the thing started. But ST is very smooth and has lots of flavors and the service is very friendly and swift. Delivery was very very very quick. If my battery has a untimely accident(defective), all I have to do is call and one would be put in the mail, without them waiting to recieve the battery first! Trust is what I am talking about. |

The smoke-tip e-cig is a steal compared to what I have been using. I have tried Both Smoke 51's from the mall (duo and trio), and the ST has some advantages. The ST lasts longer than the 51s. I have honestly smoked an entire smoke 51 cartridge in one sitting. So these last longer. They are also a ton cheaper. I like the fact that this is simple like the duo, but has a much better draw. The battery lasts half a day with moderate use.
The main problem is their flavors. Sure they have a lot, but none of them are in stock. They really need to get on it and have full stock so we can order what we want. When over half your product is out of stock that is a bad sign...

This was my first E-cig system. I ordered it on a Wed. night, it shipped on Thurs and I received it the following Monday. I would rate that as a good order processing/shipping time.
I received both regular and menthol flavored cartridges in the 16mg strength. My first taste of the menthol was disappointing mainly due to the fact that it's NOT menthol, but a mint flavor. I found the regular flavor to be better than analog cigarettes right from the start. Later in the week I came to enjoy the 'menthol' flavored cartridges. I think my initial problem with them was just adjusting to the taste.
On vapor; a new cartridge with a fresh battery produces a heavy cloud of vapor. As the battery wears down, so does the vapor volume, but not excessively so. I find that the carts are giving me nicotine to about 1 to 1.25 pack equivalent as advertised. Sometimes I have trouble figuring out if the battery is getting weak or the cartridge is. The nicotine seems to run out before all the vapor does or at least gets weak near the end of a cartridge.
Of the two batteries I received with my order. One seemed to last me about 11 hours each day and the other about half of that. I was thinking about trying to return the one battery when I remembered that for the initial 7-8 charge that I was supposed to give it, I did half on a wall charger and half on a USB. I recharged the problem battery for 8 hours on a wall charger and now it lasts as long as the first one.
I find that ST's online status of stock to be a very good feature.
Overall I am quite pleased with the ST system. I'd have to say that I made a good choice with the ST. I placed another order for some accessories like a case, more batteries and another charger. That order was processed and shipped the same day. I also like that ST is BBB approved. |

This product is great! I quit smoking about 6 months ago, but always found myself bumming them from others when I would drink. Friend of mine had one and I immediately had to order. Shipment was fast, easy and correct. The product is simply awesome. Batteries last a long time and it is really cool to vape practically anywhere you want/need. Vapor could be just a tiny bit more to simulate the feeling of smoke...but it is so close to real you probably will not notice the difference. I wish the company would offer a variety pack that samples all the flavors so I can try before buying 10 cartridges....

This is the only brand of E-Cig I have tried for a reasonable period of time. It works very well and seems like the best deal around. My brother has one of the Smoke 51 e-cigs from the mall and it doesn't last near as long and costs twice as much.
Pros: Good amount of vapor, not too hard to drag (obviously harder than an analogue cig), Comes with both wall and usb charger, refills aren't too pricey, great CS from what I hear, fast shipping, free shipping, good taste, no atomizer to deal with, Don't Stink!!
Cons: batter could last longer. My first battery lasted maybe 5 hours. Not bad since it comes with two batteries. The way I smoke it, a cart does not equal 1.25 packs for me. Closer to 0.75 packs. Also, the e-cig does not fit in the case with the cart screwed in. You have to unscrew the cart every time you want to put it in the case.

A Superior Product! I intend to post here again after a few months to see if my opinion has changed, but my initial impressions are very favorable. I was very underwhelmed with another maker of e-cigarettes (GreenSmoke {GS}), and decided to try another brand. I picked this product because of it's ratings here at e-cig365, and I am not disappointed. Compared to GS, this device is much better priced (cost does not mean better in this case) -- this brand Started Kit is almost half the price of GS, and this ecig cartridges are about 2/3rd the price of GS. The draw is much smoother with this e-cigarette and the rich vapor last much longer. Although GS advertised 400 puffs per cartridge, it was more like 100 and by then the vapor dropped off significantly. With this e-cig, I get the 250 puffs advertised and the last puff is as good as the first. As for flavor, this product is far superior to GS -- this device tastes like a cigarette; GS tasted like flavored air. So far I am pleased with the battery life of even the short this brand battery -- time will tell if it continues to hold a decent charge, but at least this ecig provides a lifetime warranty on their batteries. BRAVO to this e-cigarette for a superior product at a decent price.

I received my ST starter kit on Monday...only three days after ordering. Love the free shipping. I have tried 2 other manufacturers and for one reason or the other wasn't totally satisfied. One had a button you had to push which was okay but a nuisance. The other was good but they were CONSTANTLY out of stock on their cartridge refills. I mean 10-20 days out! I can't take a chance on a company like that. Today I ordered refills from ST and they are in stock with what I want. I like this e-cig very much. This ecig cartridges last as long as promised and the product is very reasonably priced. As long as they keep their product stocked I plan to stay with this brand. The regular strength is a little too strong for me so I've ordered the lights this time and have ventured into one of the flavors - cherry. This product is definitely worth the investment. The hit is very good and the amount of "smoke" makes me feel like I'm smoking an analog cigarette. Overall a great experience. Keep up the good work...and keep stocked! |

I first started using Ecigs in June of 2010, purchasing a starter kit from Blu. Since then I've purchased two additional starter kits, numerous atomizers and batteries and cartridges from Blu with an overall rating of F for 'Frustrating' (and that includes their customer service!) Their attys are the worst as far as reliability is concerned. I was about to give up and go back to real cigarettes (any excuse will do with an addict :) !) After reading the reviews here at 365 e-cigs I decided to give this e-cigarette a try. All I can say is thank you 365 for steering me towards them. From the get-go my experience with this e-cig has been more than satisfactory. Their product far surpasses what I've been using these past nine months. Their customer service is superior. Battery life is more than triple that of Blu and their cartridges go way above what Blu sells. Blu's ecig just didn't cut it when it came to "replacing" the real thing. this product's almost like smoking the real thing when it comes to flavor and throat hit and gives me the confidence that I'll stick with my ecig rather than succumbing to buying a pack of the nasty coffin sticks! Keep this up ST and you'll have a customer for life!!!

Smoked since I was 17, don't want to say how long ago that was - the day I got my ST I threw out my last half pack of cigs. I plugged in the first battery to charge and haven't looked back. I have a Freudian oral fixation and the reason I couldn't quite with a patch was I like to have something in my hand, going to my mouth, and the smoke. I used to bite my fingernails and chew on my pens, this would have started again with the patch. But this e-cigarette is like smoking. It's heavy, like holding a heavy pen, so I hold it like a cigar. When I get the urge for a real cig, I make sure I have a charged battery and a new cartridge and the feeling goes away. Nicotine by itself isn't any worse for you than caffeine. This gives you the Nicotine, the drag, the holding a cig feeling.it's been 3wks and I haven't even THOUGHT of buying a pack of real cigs. 17 years. Never would have believed it. Also, I thought I would like the Marlboro taste the best, I don't go for flavors, but their's are so subtle I really like the vanilla and cherry and choclate. Have already ordered more even though I'm not even half through what I originally ordered. This is the true way to stop smoking guys. |

First I must say that ive tried many Ecigs from the disposable ones at the gas stations to Blu cigs and these are the best tasting and longest lasting e cigs ive had. The vapor is very close to a real cig and the taste is right on. I went with Blu because of the flavors and case that doubles as a charger and holder for 5 carts and two cigs.. that thing is worthless IMO. the batteries dont last long at ALL! im in the process of sending one battry back under warranty so at least i can finish the carts i bought for it. I showed my dad my e cigs and hoped he would give them a try and HE DID!! he just bought ST brand and the other night we went out to eat and he let me try his ST brand e cig and i was very impressed and hated to admit that his tasted better than my blu brand. So tonight i just ordered my starter kit for 59.99 shipped and he said he got his in two days!! thats super fast esp since im sick of my Blu e cigs... |

this e-cig is my first try with an electronic cigarette, and after using it for approx. 3 weeks, I am very satisfied with my choice to go with this product. I was a Marlboro Menthol Light smoker and the Menthol this device cartridges I think taste even better than the real thing! I am very happy with my results of cutting way down on real cigarettes. Like most people have stated, one real cigarette a day is satisfying enough for me already. Anyone that has thought that they really should quit smoking but keeps putting it on the back burner, should AT LEAST give this brand a try. You have nothing to lose with their 30-day money back guarentee and free shipping. |

ST is all what it claims to be. The kit shipped very quickly, and it is easy to understand and handle. Have been using this for 2 weeks now and I'm liking it. Used to smoke a pack per day, for about 40 years. Now I'm smoking at the most 1 real cigarette per day, and a lot of times don't even do that. The ST is working for me, plus the benefit of smoking anywhere without harming yourself and others around you, makes this a win/win. I haven't tried any other brands, so I can't compare this product. As of right now I don't need to try another, because I'm satisfied with this one. The batteries hold a charge slightly less after the first couple of times.

I feel better and knowing that I am not getting all the added harmful effects of smoking regular cigarettes is just an added bonus.I love the ease of use no matter where you are and not having to worry about finding a place to smoke. I find myself smoking less and have not smoked a real cig in a week. Wished I had found this product sooner. You won't be dissapointed and the misc flavors is another added bonus.

Smoking, or vaping, with this e-cigarette e-cig is an outstanding smoking experience. I have been using my ST e-cig for only a week and am already totally sold on the product. After a few days of using it, I ordered more cartridges because I never plan to smoke another "real" cigeratte again! I could hardly believe that I got my order 2 days after I placed it and paid no shipping! The battery life is much longer than I expected and the battery charges within only 2-3 hours! I love how the battery light clearly shows when it is almost fully charged again. I have always smoked menthol, and I love the taste of the menthol this e-cig cartridges! With my second order, I got a variety pack so that I am getting the chance to try all the different flavors this product offers. The peach is wonderful...like having dessert! The amount of vapor that is released makes me feel like I am really smoking, without the nasty stuff that causes cancer! I already breathe better and have never had the feeling of withdrawl--the amount of nicotine leaves me feeling satisfied--something nicotine gum NEVER did! I finally feel like I could stop smoking by using this product and weening myself off...I love that this device company offers a "no nicotine" options! I tried another brand of e-cig a while ago and it was terrible; it barely worked! Pitiful vapor and horrible battery life--no way it could replace smoking. Thank God I gave e-cigs another try! I love this brand and so do my family & friends who are no longer surrounded by my second-hand smoke and nasty-smelling clothes & breath! I would recommend this ecig to anyone who smokes, but doesn't want to! Thanks this e-cigarette

This product is wonderful. I have been smoking for 35 years and have tried all the other nicotine replacement products without much success. I have smoked less that half a pack of cigarettes since I received my ST a week ago. I think it's the addiction to the physical act of smoking rather than the nicotine that has made me fail in the past. This takes care of that and I'm so glad I finally tried it! |

I have been smoking since I was 13 years old (I am 53 years old now). I was smoking up to 1 - 2 packs a day. I have tried unsuccessfully to quit many times. I have tried acupuncture (tore the staple out of my ear because I was too embarrassed to go back and have it removed because I was still smoking), patches (worked for a little while in the summer when it was hot and I sweat it would fall off), gum (destroyed my teeth and I was chewing more and more went back to cigarettes to get off the gum) and Chantix (works by inhibiting ALL pleasure, why go on living?) to quit. After a lot of research, I purchased Green Smoke because of the positive reviews. I have also tried 2 different brands of e-cigarettes purchased in convenience stores. NJoy and Century-21 both have really cheaply made cartridges. They have a short battery life and the cartridges dont last very long. An NJoy cartridge melted and actually became hot been I wasnt using it. Im happy with Green Smoke but I decided to use another brand as a back up and chose this e-cig because of their low cost, lifetime guarantee on batteries and free shipping. this product is wonderful. Their customer service replied promptly to my questions (via e-mail) prior to ordering (within 10 minutes). The batteries lasted a day and a half on a full charge and a cartridge lasted almost 2 days for me. this device is very easy to drag. A co-worker noticed that I no longer cough and so shes also vaping now! Besides no longer coughing, (I also used to have a gurgling in my throat from smoking), I no longer smell like smoke, I dont have to go outside in the cold to smoke, Im saving money and my health is so much better. My skin is actually better. A friend of mine told me before I started vaping that my skin was actually grayish looking. Thank you ST, and to all of you who write these reviews! |

Since this was going to be my first e-cig, I started doing research on them, and after reading the reviews posted here, and on a lot of other sites, I decided to try this brand Brand since it got the best reviews of all the e-cigs (I don't think I read one bad review on them!) Their price for the starter kit was very reasonable. Plus they offer a Lifetime warranty. So I ordered this ecig 16 mg Regular starter kit, the carry case and a 10pk of the 12mg Cowboy Marlboro cartridges. I ordered it on Thursday and to my surprise it arrived on Saturday! That was REALLY FAST Shipping and free to boot! When opening the package I was impressed with the Quality of everything in the kit, including the kit case. It has a magnetic flap on the front that makes it easy to open and close. Inside there are nice custom fit pockets for the Cartridges, Batteries, Wall charger and USB charger. Each cartridge is individually sealed in a small bag and they also have a 2 piece Soft plastic case. I charged the first battery per instructions (6 to 8 hrs.). The next morning I started using it and found it very easy to use following the few simple instructions included on the glossy 4x6 card. Even that was of good quality! My first puff was very pleasant and I was surprised at the amount of smoke (vapor) it produced and that the taste was very good! I used it from about 7am to about 2pm before the battery went dead (about 7 hours). Most reviews said they only last about 6 hours so when I was not using it I took off the cartridge and put that and the battery in the carry case. Maybe that's why I got more time out of it? I guess the more you puff on it the faster it runs out also. But you get 2 batteries and they both fit in the case with 2 cartridges, so you have at least 12 hrs of use before having to charge. All in all, I am very satisfied! SmokTip is a High Quality Product with Great Features, Vapor, Taste, Great warranty and Super fast shipping! Thanks this e-cigarette! Keep up the good work!

I bought thhis this e-cig to help my mother quit smoking. The kit arriced within 3 days. I brought it to her to try. She has been smoking for over 40 years and has medical reasons to quit smoking. The ecig is very easy for her to use and she likes the fact that it looks and feels like a real cigarette. I believe with the help of this product she will eventually no longer need real cigarettes. We ordered the regular flavor, but she is excited to try the other flavors. There are many other benefits, like not going outside to smoke, no ashes and no lighters. |

After reading the reviews posted here, I decided to try ST! And am very satisfied! Customer service is excellent! And I suck using the computer and made several mistakes, but they helped me through! Shipping was awesome despite this crazy weather! And I am very satisfied with the cigarette! My husband tried a different brand (hadn't checked this site- ProSmoke) and it is not working as expected; he'll probably switch over, too! (Cartridges don't last; customer service leaves alot to be desired). If you're considering trying, my recommendation is ST! Can't beat the warranty! Can't beat the shipping! Can't beat the service!

I ordered the ST regular 12 mg starter kit. Shipping was lightning quick and free, (hard act to follow). The taste is very good and the battery lasts about 6 hours. Two batteries came with the kit so I always have one available to puff on. I highly recommend the ST e-cigarette to anyone interested in experimenting with an e-cigarette. |

Just received my ST today. I have to say it is amazing, have tried others and this one wins hands down. It does not compare to the other models I have tried. No effort in producing the vapor, taste just like a cig, I dont even need the real thing. This could change things for alot of people in the world, Me and my spouse have smoked for 25 yrs and have attempted several times to quit but this is truely the ticket to helping us change. I cannot say enough about this brand, except please listen to the reviews and dont make the same mistake I did by purchasing other brands that will only turn you away from the ecigs. We knew we had to quit now the traditional cigs and so just went out locally looking for an electronic one, purchased and we were fully both dreaming of a cig, we ordered this product after reading the reviews and we were very skeptical about the whole thing and decided this would be our last attempt at ecigs, wow, recieved in 3 days and when we tried we were soo excited about how it works just like a real one that we have already started to tell friends and family of our findings so they do not make the same mistake we made. And to top off this review it was the most affordable of all of our attempts, just proving that higher price does not make a better product... thrilled , fully recommend for those of you who smoke and would love an alternative to the old habit. Good luck, its great, no regrets on this purchase just wish I would have started here. |

I got this early this morning. The packaging is very nice and have been very happy so far. I ordered because of the lifetime warranty on the battery. I hope they hold a pretty good charge. The throat hit is nice and very satisfying. Using 12mg cowboy marlboro flavor to start. I've been using the patch for a month, which helped take the edge off, but just couldn't do it on that alone. I am switching from the patch to this product. It gives me the nicotine & the satisfaction of the draw of a cigarette. I can't wait to order some other flavors and lessen the nicotine as I go. |

I recently purchased my ST product and love it. I have reduced purchasing 1 1/2 cartons of cigarettes the first week I've had it. I also don't smoke in the car, which makes my family happy because they don't smell like smoke when they ride with me. The products charge fast and the after taste is better than regular cigarettes. I would recommend this product to anyone. |

This device has been like smoking a real cigarette but my house, breath & clothes do not stink. The cartridges produce a great amount of vapor with little effort when you breath in. The shipping is very fast and free. And the batteries have a lifetime warranty. I just recently bought the V2 starter kit for $69.99 shipping. It came with a 30 day money back guarantee and I am sending it back. The V2 Kit came with one automatic & one manual battery. I thought I would like the manual battery with a button on it but I did not. I had to inhale hard to get a drag from the V2 with manual battery. The V2 kit also took 2 weeks for my to receive and I had to pay shipping. I would recommend this brand Starter kit to anyone who is wanting to quit smoking real cigarettes. ST has the cheapest starter kit that I could find that came with two batteries & it defiantly is a great value for your money.

Overall, I am very pleased with my ST purchase. Received my order late in the afternoon on Thursday and charged it right away so I could check it out before bed. My first cartridge and battery lasted until bedtime (2:00AM) on Friday. I am so impressed, and so glad I checked one more time before I ordered my first ecigarette. I am NOT interested in quitting smoking, because I do enjoy it. This is the answer for me. I currently smoke 2 packs a day and plan to save some money! Thanks ST for a quality product that I look forward to using for a long time! |

wow fast shipping - 1 inch longer than regular cig and a little thicker! Got the package and charged battery asap. Thought this would be a way to smoke and not get all the bad chemicals! So far we like how compact and reusable and cheap everything is! ST starter kit cost less than one carton of cigs! No reason why not to buy one! So far we are trying to figure out what mg of tobacco would be good for us! The other thing were are trying to figure out is how many puffs of a real cig do we take at a sitting! Other than that we love the product and hope it last us a long time! |

I ordered my ST and received it in three mailing days. I am a menthol smoker and the flavor is great! I have also tried the cherry and could not believe how good it was. I can't wait to try the other flavors. I ordered the ecig because I wanted to smoke less and without any effort at all I am smoking half of what I was. I also came to realize that I do not have to worry about ash everywhere. I sometimes walk away from my cigarette and then half is gone and I have wasted it, but with the ecig that doesn't matter. I would say that the battery lasts me about four days and the cartridge is definitely more than a pack of cigarettes. I love my ST and am sure that eventually that will be all I smoke. |

Wow, what a fantastic product! I bought another ecig about 8 months ago and it is good. Then a friend of mine, after talking to me, did the reasearch that I should have done before purchasing an ecig. He talked me into ordering a ST. What a great product and company to deal with. I called ST to get some questions answered, hung up the phone, placed the order and had it with in 48 hours. Talk about fast shipping. The vapor is amazing. The taste and flavors you can choose from are really outstanding. The battery life is good, and I received an email from ST intoducing their new longer lasting battery that is new. Fortunately for this review, I have had the ability to try another brand and have a basis to compare and there is really not much to compare. The ST beats hands down all of the others that I have tried. Most of the others I have had experience with had a "three part" system, where ST only had two.
If you would like to quit smoking or just slow up, this is the one to go with. You have the great flavor, fantastic "draw" just like the real thing, no smell. One of the other things I wanted to mention is, I normally smoked the whole real cig, so that I would not waste money. I did not need (some of the time) a whole cig. With ST if you get the urge to smoke, take a drag or two. The urge goes away and there is no need to "smoke" a whole cig. |

As far as a company standing behind their product, this e-cig is hard to beat. I love this company.
The product is amazing. Maybe all e-smokes work the same way, but this is new to me and this product is the only one that I have tried. I don't feel the need to try another.
I've noticed that there is a distinct e-smoking culture complete with mix masters, connoisseurs, and vocabulary, which is all wonderful and continues the sense of a smokers community (since one of the attractions to cigarettes for me has always been that sense of community) but now i just want a convenient, affordable, no hassle smoke that satisfies. ST fits that bill. One benefit I wasn't expecting was the ease of quiting regular cigarettes.
I have quit smoking many times using every stop smoking aid available (fda approved or not) and without fail, I end up back on the cancer-sticks after an extremely painful process of quiting. I am a full-fledged ADDICT who has smoked 2-3 packs of full strength smokes a day for the last 30+ years. My children are extremely concerned with my smoking which is a source of contention but also motivation. i had no expectations with this product - zero, after all, I've been around the block a few times. So when, by the end of the first week, I realized that I had not smoked an entire pack of regular cigarettes, I was astonished. I have been cigarette free since 1/11/11 (not intentional).
THANK YOU this device
There are adjustments to make, but only small ones. The benefits of not endangering others with my second hand smoke, or the fire hazards or the health risks or the stinking clothes, hair, car, ect. FAR outweigh any small adjustments.
I couldn't be happier with my e-smoke or with this brand ~ And according to the reviews on this site, I am not alone. ST has far more reviews than almost any other brand and they are consistently good reviews. I've never endorsed a product before, but this is life-saving, I really believe that. I am already telling anyone who will listen (and some who won't) to try this product for themselves. You can't go wrong with the price, even if it turns out not to be your thing but more than likely, you will discover just how great this can be. |

The BEST we had tried 3 other types and were about to say I GIVE UP Then we saw ST and they are the best we have ordered 3 kits total for our family. Had one problem with charger and they sent us one ASAP no question ask. The entire product is A I have even tried the flavor and they are very nice also. I would recommend this product to anyone who is trying to quit smoking or like us we had quit for over a year and we missed it so much and noticed our tempers were so touchie
We ordered ST and this is the BEST PRODUCT, BEST SERVICE, Just can't say enough everything about them is wonderful and we would never go back to smoking now this has taken care of all our cravings. |

WOW!!! First off, I read countless reviews on different brands and went with this e-cigarette based on the warranty on batteries. My kit came with 6 "filters" and 2 batteries as well as a USB and a wall charger. I ordered my kit on Jan 8 2011, and received it first thing in the morning on following Monday Jan 10 2011. I read the directions, charged one battery, shook the tip (like instructed) and started to smoke indoors. The first vapor caused me a little throat hit and a couple coughs like a real cig when I have not smoked in awhile. It felt and tasted like a "real" cigarette. I got the menthol and it tasted just like it. I am so far REALLY pleased and highly recommend this e-cig to future e-cig smokers. Got the 2nd charger charging for later. :) |

Ok, let me start by saying I ordered this on New Years Eve 2010 and recieved my order on January 3rd. So, shipping was amazingly fast considering it was a holiday, I am extremely impressed! The kit came and I was so excited, I immediately read the directions, plugged in my first battery and waited a little over the 6 hours, could not wait!
The first thing i noticed when i inhaled the first time was that the taste had a little fruity flavor...so just in case i accidently put on a flavored cartridge or they sent wrong ones, i took a second one out and tried a new one. It tasted the same. And btw I took the second one from a completely different box of cartridges. So after vaping for one whole day, I noticed that the taste did not bother me and that it indeed satisfied the craving. I went later that first night to a local tabacco outlet and they gave me a cartridge of the kind they sell and, one it tasted the same, two it leaked out when I vaped it, and three it was more expensive. So after checking it with another type, I was completely satisfied with my choice cause I have had zero leakage from my ST cartridges.
I have had the urge a few times to have a "real" cig and honestly, im not really sure why i actually do it, cause I start smoking it and it does nothing that this product is not doing, except making me stink and making me feel like an idiot for standing outside in 30 degree weather for no reason!
I have actually been an idiot about 9 times since january 3rd and smoked a real cig, it is now the 8th and after smoking for 21 years and at least a pack a day for that time, I am convinced that this will work for me! After doing more research I am going to try refilling cartridges and am going to order the smoke juice, just to see if I can get my habit down to the cheapest possible price until I am ready to give up the e-cigs. As far as this device e-cigs, I am completely glad that I chose them after much research. They are an excellent way to start off. |

I absolutely LOVE this brand. I've tried several brands online and none of them lasted as long as this ecig brand AND give you a REAL cigarette taste (minus all the junk you find on the real ones). I cannot say enough good things about them. And the chocolate taste is PHENOMENAL.

I am a 1st time e-cig user so am not able to make comparisons, but I did extensive research before buying this device and I suspect I made the right choice. The order was sent quickly, even in the middle of the holidays. Used properly, it has good flavor and is completely satisfying. It does take a little adjustment. I found the best tobacco flavor comes from a longer, gentler drag than a conventional cigarette and the extra weight requires holding it somewhat differently. Also, it's not a good idea to try to hold it solely with your lips when you need both hands for something else. That insight comes from two drops, wherein I also learned that this brand is rugged. |

My fianc ordered this ecig and let me try it. I liked it so much that I ordered a kit for myself. Since I have to go outside to smoke at work, I really enjoyed the fact that now during the winter months that I can sit at my desk and 'vape' without having to bundle up and brave the elements. Another plus is that I don't smell like a dirty ashtray any longer! My daughter was always complaining when riding with me in the car about the smell or the window being down. Now, the complaints have (almost) stopped. She, of course would like for me to totally stop, but I keep telling her that it's all baby steps. I feel that this is such a great alternative to cigarettes and have recommended them to my friends and family. Thank you ST! |

My wife and I have had our this e-cigarette e-cigs for a couple weeks now. I spent a great deal of time researching what would be the best brand for us. I am completely satisfied with our choice. When we began using them I was coughing and my wife was feeling nauseous. I called this e-cig, got an answering machine and left a message. Within 15min Christie called me back. She said the level we chose (12mg) was to strong. (We are Marlboro Lt smokers) We stepped it down to the Malboro Ultralight(6mg) flavor and that fixed the problem. I wish I could say we have stopped smoking real cigs but we have cut back by at least half. I only wish this product offered the starter kits with a choice of the black or chrome battery and a choice of their different flavors (the ones they send in the starter kit are kinda sweet tasting) However, I definitely recommend this product to anyone with an interest in e-cigs. Great company! Great product! Best value! Best choice! |

I started out with another E-cigarette company but have switched to ST. In over 2 months I have only smoked 5 of my regular cigarettes and I have been smoking since 1964. Since I am in sales, this is soooooooo much better than regular cigaretes. My car smells nice, my home smells good, my hair, clothes etc. I have found that STs is the most reasonable E-cigarette with great flavor. A very good friend suggested STs and I tell everyone whether they smoke or not because we all know people who smoke. Saving money, not offensive, what could be better? Thanks for a great product. |

I have had my electronic cigarette for about a week now and I am very pleased with my purchase! Not only was the shipping extremely fast (I got my package in less than two days), but the product is exactly as it was described and it is extremely easy to use. Furthermore, as soon as I tried it I decided that I will never go back to smoking cigarettes again. The electronic cigarette experience is extremely similar to a regular cigarette experience except much much better! There is no messy ash to clean up, I can smoke in my house, my clothes don't reek of smoke smell, and my breath is fresh. I recommend this product! |

I purchased this ST starter kit last week. Unfortunately I did not receive it in time to take on a road trip. But when I did return home, it was here. It is not the same as smoking a regular cigarette. It does satisfy the crave of a cigarette and you don't get the burning in the throat, which I don't miss. I have not fully given up regular cigarettes altogether, but I do enjoy this in the car and in the house. I like the fact that these can be refilled and the battery is interchangeable with other brands (vapor king, white cloud, et al). I do recommend this elect cig but since I have not purchased any of the other brands, I can't really make a comparison. But ST offers a 30 day money back guarantee and also lifetime battery replacement, most of the others do not. |

My father and brother purchased electronic cigarettes from another company that offered a free trial. They did not read into the terms of the free trial and thought they were getting free starter kits and would only have to purchase the cartridges. They were wrong and were charged around $150.00 for the starter kit, put on a monthly subscription for cartridges (costing them around $70.00 per month) and there was no warranty on the product. I loved the idea of the ecigarette and so I did my own research and finally found this webpage. I chose this device based on the reviews, the price, the variety of flavors and the free shipping. I placed my order for my starter kit on Friday after 5:00 p.m. and received it on Monday! Because of some of the reviews I read from different companies, I purchased the 12mg (light) cartridges. I usually smoke ultra-light cigarettes. The 12mg were too strong and gave me a headache if I smoked too much. I have since ordered a 6mg (ultra-light)cartridge pack but have not received them yet. I had a half of a pack of cigarettes left by the time the battery was charged and ready to be used and I did finish that pack between smoking my new this brand. I have not had a real cigarette in 3 days and have no desire to smoke one. This ecig keeps me completely satisfied. I smoked in my car with all the windows up and there was no fog out; I was impressed! I am able to smoke in my office and no one knows cause they cannot smell it. My battery lasts at least one full day if not longer and the first cartridge lasted me 4.5 days (I was a pack a day smoker). It is a little different than smoking a real cigarette but after just a few days you get used to the differences and you don't notice them anymore. You have to take long slow drags but the throat hit and amount of vapor are impressive. I love the fact that the battery has a live time guarantee too! |

I just bought an e cigarette starter kit from them. I was very disappointed with another company's e-cigarette that I bought over a year ago (from smooth smoking, LLC - I think they're closing down), but I decided to go with ST because of the product description (mainly that the vapor doesn't diminish steadily throughout cartridge use). So far, that has been the case: it's pretty strong throughout, although it has begun to diminish slightly, but still far far better than the other e-cig I used to use. My only problem with it is that there's a burnt taste to all the vapor, even with the flavored cartridge.

I am 56 and have been smoking since age 13. I saw ecigs at a mall kiosk several weeks ago for the first time, and thought it might be worth researching. Over the past 4 decades, I've spent hundreds of dollars on schemes to quit. Since I really do like to smoke, none of them have worked. I chose ST about 2 weeks ago and have not had a traditional cigarette since. For me, the battery lasts about 12 hours before needing a recharge, the filters about 2 days. At $2.00 apiece,that is quite a savings. The best thing is no smell, ashes, or butts. I ordered the 12 mg initially and am getting ready to try the 6 mg. I can see myself smoking totally "quilt free" within the next couple of months. Very cool. I get to keep my habit, improve my overall health, and most of all, keep my family and friends happy and off my back. Nice. |

I am in my mid-50's, been smoking since I was 15. This is the first product that has actually allowed me to put a traditional cigarette down, and not even want it. This Smoke-Tip e-cigarette is very well designed, easy to use, hit's like a reg smoke with out the mess and stink. I read about dif. e-cig's found this oneto be best, and I was right. I showed this to fellow employees, who in turn ordered their's the next day, and are also very pleased. Fast FREE shipping, great customer servce, great product, what more could you ask for. |

well where do i start? I've been smoking for 35 years.. started when i was 11 cause it was cool to smoke. I've been smoking marlboros, on the average, a pack a day since the age of 15.... well with the price of a pack of smokes in today's economy being outrageous, I figured it was time to quit giving my money to the government to mishandle(they get more than 50% from the sales of smokes)and decided to give ecigs. a shot. I got my ST 2 days ago and have not had a normal cigarette since. Don't even crave for one.. I crave to smoke and the hand/mouth thing and this e-cigarette does it.. i take a few puffs and i felt like i just smoked a regular cig.. can't believe.. there is no reason to smoke those nasty smelling things if you can get your hands on a this e-cig.. best 60 bucks i spent towards smoking. i would highly recommend this product for anybody wishing to quit smoking regular smokes..and you can smoke it inside a restaurant.. right after a meal...love it... |

I purchased this e-cig based on the positve reviews I read on this site and a couple others. I smoked ~1 pack a day for 10 years and all the patches/gum in the world couldn't get me to quit. This thing rocks! The taste is great (mix between smoke & walnuts). Gives a good throat hit, nice aftertaste, and I don't smell like an ashtray! I don't think the cartridges last as long as they claim, but it seems close to a packs worth (and at 8.50 for a pack in CT, this product is much much cheaper). Also, the battery only lasted about a day, but I doubt any last for a long time. However, it completely satisfies my cravings. A couple long, slow drags is all it takes. If you are looking to quit smoking, I recommend you start vaping with this device! |

Did 2 weeks of research into Ecigs, finally chosing this brand as most economical in theory. Am pleased to say I am overjoyed and made the correct descision. After 20 years as a mouth smoker I put them down the day my Kit came and now 30 days later I haven't touched another real cig, nor have any desire to. The product works beyond my expectation, customer service is awesome, my carttridges are lasting 1 1/2 to 2 days each so I've cut my monthly nicotine bill from 180$ to 53$. I never thought I could ever give up Cigs and am so happy that now there is an option that allowed me to painfully quit tobacco with minimal effort. ST tastes great, nice vapor, and certainly delivers the Nicotine. They have great free shipping, reasonable prices and some great accessories. I urge and hope that all can make the switch and finally lay down harmful tobacco in favor of an ECig. I happily recommend this ecig as a great one to give this wonderful invention a try. Save money AND very probably your life. |

So after over a month of trying this e-cigarette,im very pleased. The warranty is AMAZING yet i havent used it since my batteries have been perfect so far but i have that comfort knowing i can get it replaced asap without any cost to me. The vapor is amazing yet the battery life could be better... Im no paid person or this e-cig advertiser,just a normal guy. The cartridges could last a bit longer... but not bad at all. I am loving this product,thank you ST!!! |

Excellent product ... Great flavors, new atomizer in every tip, very long ... lasting battery life with a Life Time Replacement Warranty. Wide range in flavors, come in different mg strengths. This is by far the Best One! I have tried. ***The cartridges can be refilled with other types of smoke juice. I have had my ST for a month now and am still enjoying it. I have had plenty of time to kick the tiers on this thing and I love it. Recommended flavors, I like the Strawberry the best. |

Very impressed with how this product functioned. Got it today and took a couple puffs and nearly started coughing. My wife who doesn't smoke did cough like it was her first cigarette. It was very very similar to a regular cigarette. Very impressed with cartridges taste, delivery, vapor, and throat hit. Got 16mg menthol. Only problem was one battery wasn't charged when I got it and I'm afraid I got a defective battery, however, with the lifetime warranty, no worries! |

Wow!! I did a lot of research before deciding which e-cigarette to purchase as part of my quit smoking plan. I have to say, 51 days now with no "real" cigarettes and only my ST and I couldn't be happier. I've dropped the strength down to 12mg now (I was smoking clove cigarettes before with a whopping 17mg each) and I don't miss the smell, cost, dirty looks, or the hassle of smoking. I plan to keep lowering the strength down to zero over time until I've completely quit.
I love the different flavors that ST offers - my favs are vanilla, chocolate, peach, and cherry. My doctor was so excited when I showed him my ST that he has already gotten 4 other patients to make the switch. I am happy to talk to people about my snazzy e-cig and try to convince everyone I can that this healthier and safer alternative is the way to go! Thanks ST - you might have saved my life |

I've been a smoker for about 20 years. I have only tried to quit smoking once and that was about six years ago. I refrained from smoking for a little over seven months before starting back. I realized just how much I like to smoke and at that moment; I figured that I would be a smoker for the rest of my life. I recently discovered e-cigs and although I still dont want to quit smoking, I figure this is a healthier alternative than smoking tobacco. Im so glad that I came across this website because of the information it provided about each of the manufactures and it also lead me to this device. ST is my first e-cig that I have ever tried. I don't know if this brand is any better than any other brand. I can tell you that I am satisfied with this ecig. I placed my order on Friday and I received my order by Monday. It's not that hard to assemble when I'm ready to smoke and it does satisfy me enough to not want a real cigarette. The e-cig is definitely a compromise that I can live with for a little healthier lifestyle. |

I ordered the ST starter kit on-line. It arrived within in a couple of days. Tracking was provided by their site, so I knew where my order was while it was en route.
I have smoked for 36 years and I have wanted to quit because the cost has jumped significantly just within the last 2-3 years and I was tired of smoking. Additonal negatives being the smell, being treated different by non-smokers because I do smoke, no longer being able to smoke in public places, etc.
I had sampled the White Cloud Cigarettes at a kiosk at the mall. I debate the cost of $189 - $249. This is a lot of money to me. I decided to do reseach and came to this site and researched all the brands which are posted. I chose ST because or the reviews, the starter kit was $59.99 included all items, and the cartridge refills where not as expensive as other sites. I believe on one site I researched the cartridges were just about as expensive as buying cigarettes. Don't understand why anyone would want to buy their brand.
I have to say that I am very happy that I selected the ST brand. I was at the mall and stopped at the White Cloud cigarette kiosk and compared my ST which I just received to their product. The White Cloud cartridges even work in with my ST battery. I am happy since I did the comparison since the starter kits seem to do the same thing and are very similiar in comparison. I liked the White Cloud cigarette product when I tried it, but the savings was significant by purchasing ST instead. I saved a minimum of $130 compared to purchasing the White Cloud starter kit.
Additionally another reason I went with ST. They offer a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee and 100% Unconditional Lifetime Warranty on their product. White Cloud did not offer a money back guarantee and their warranty was for 6 months only.
I started quitting smoking about 2 weeks ago on Nicorette gum and patches. Day 11 was very stressful and I did buy a pack of cigarette |

After reading the extensive reviews and FAQs about the ecigarettes and the various products on the market, I decided on this e-cigarette brand. I ordered on a Sunday, and my package arrived on Tuesday. I had ordered the starter pack, a few extra packs of cartridges, the travel charger, the USB bypass unit and an extra battery in black with a blue tip for those times I don't wish any hassles.
Very easy instructions and good customer service from ST people. Even got a note on my invoice telling me if I ordered a few more cartridges at the same time, I'd qualify for another $2 off per pack.
Well, I used the unit a few times and interspersed my regular analogs when I felt I wanted more of... something (couldn't quite put my finger on what I was dissatisfied with... could it just be a change that I objected to??
I had just about decided (in error, it turns out) that the only use for this thing was for a cigarette substitute when I couldn't use my analogs. Imagine my surprise when at the end of the week, I STILL hadn't boght new cartons of analogs and had unopened packs sitting around available if I really wanted them!! After the first week, I realized I was smoking LESS than 1/2 pack of analogs per day (a two pack a day DROP!)
The third week, I made a major observation.... i actually PREFERRED the taste of the cig to my analogs! OMG.... my world was upside down! I STILL haven't purchased any more cartons of cigarettes and I have pack or two still sitting here from BEFORE I purchased this e-cigs. I am not coughing that terrible hack and I feel better!
Last thing I've noted so far is that the cartridge WILL get hot if you draw too often or too hard. The other reviewers were completely correct in saying that a long gentle pull gets the best results (a more satisying amount of smoke and nicotine)
Can't wait to try other flavors and strengths. Will keep you posted. |

This is the fourth brand that I tried. I'm sticking with this product because of the price, the fast (and free) shipping, and overall pdocut quality . Ive only had it a week, but the battery and cartridges have been reliable. One cartridge seems to last about as long as a pack of cigarettes. Ive had defective batteries and catridges from other companies. Taste is ok, but a little bland. vapor production is also pretty good, but not as good as some of the others ive tried. |

I am an e-cig noobie, having just purchased my ST Starter Kit this past week. I placed my order Tuesday Night (11PM), and my kit arrived Friday. I charged the first battery in a few hours and tried an e-cig for the very first time Friday evening. The physical size of this device is a little bigger than I was used to, but in just a couple of days, I have gotten used to it.
The cig is simple to use, just screw on the cartrige & puff. Battery charging is not the simplest, though. I have trouble making sure the battery is all the way in, it feels like I'm about to break something when I put it in the charger. Battery life is great so far, though. ST says they last 3 hours, but that must be 3 hours of puffing. It is now 11:30PM, and my 2nd battery is still going strong. (started using battery 1 at 6:15AM, recharged that one after lunch, but haven't used it yet)
One of the reasons I went with this brand was because of the flavors, and I have tried several so far. The flavors are subtle, not overpowering.
Smoking in the house for the first time in 15 years, and in the car again is wonderful. No more smoke burning my eyes, ashes burning my skin or the smell on me & my clothes. I will be purchasing a second kit in the next week or so, & then I will try to get my wife to make the switch. (even if she doesn't go for it, the price is great for 2 more batteries, another charger & some cartriges.)
I highly recommend this ecig for a first time buyer. |

I ordered the ST starter kit a few weeks ago and was very pleasantly surprised by the flavor and how quickly the battery charges. They send two batteries so I always have a backup handly. The battery charges in just 3 to 4 hours. I also ordered a carrying case so I can discreetly carry the two fully-charged ecigarettes with me wherever I go. The case is worth the $10.00 because it is an extremely durable hard case that snaps securely shut. It really protects your ecigarettes.
I really liked the taste over other ecigarettes I have tried. The vapor does not burn my throat like some others, yet is strong enough to satisfy my desire for a "real" cigarette. I love the fact that I can smoke inside my car with the windows up and air-conditioning running on hot days. I no longer have to stink of cigarettes, yet do not have to put off my cravings for my thirty-minute commute to work. I am thoroughly cleaning my home's walls, ceilings and furniture so I no longer live in a tar-covered environment. This has done wonders for my self-esteem and desire to return to a more HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. This is something I have been praying and worrying about for a few years now.
Knowing tar is no longer building up in my lungs, organs and entire body is very important to me. I can still fulfill my desire for the nicotine without feeling nearly as guilty. I feel so much better going to work not stinking of cigarettes. I am not embarrassed to hug friends and family. This has been a very positive change to my lifestyle and highly recommend ST to all smokers who want to stop tar intake into their bodies and feel better about themselves. |

I purchased the ST starter kit, as well as 10 cartridge/atomizer packs. The cartridge/atomizer packs were less than $16.00 each and equal one and one-quarter cartons of ciarettes each. Okay, it is a bargain.... good start.
I am amazed! First, I smoked this e-cigarettes just to "take the edge off" when I was unable to smoke in my mom's house and where I work. I no longer have that anxious feeling. Before I wanted to leave work and not go to staff meetings. I can now have a full cigarette in the privacy of my office, not break the law, and most importantly, not stink up my breath, hair, clothing and office. I have been trying to hide the stench of smoking analog cigarettes for years using mouth wash, tons of minths and Febreeze to try and appear as a non-smoker. I am the only one who smokes in my entire workplace. Now I don't freak out if I forgot my breathmints or little Febreeze container.
I feel so confident and relaxed now. I am also finding that regular cigarettes actually disgust me. They seem so dirty now. Thank you and bless you for selling your this e-cig E Cigarettes for a very fair and inviting price. Give yourself a chance and give them a try. If you are not 100% satisfied, this product will refund your entire purchase price -- you just pay to have them shipped back within 30 days. You are worth it!!! |
