I bought the Aritiq vaporizer. After a couple of weeks of use, the chamber would clog and required cleaning after every couple of sessions. Additionally, the cartridge would not firmly stay in position, which made the product completely unusable. Don't spend your money on this vaporizer. There are plenty of other better options.
Initially customer service was responsive and helpful. However, it's been over three weeks since I returned the product and I have not yet received a repaired or replacement vaporizor. Now customer service ignores me.
Don't buy from them!!

I'm on here b/c Davinci will not post…
I'm on here b/c Davinci will not post an "unflattering" review. I tried twice and even wrote to ask why my reviews were not posted. no response! $300+ spent on vape and accessories! Once you get a vape its yours it cannot be returned even if not use! Before I purchased, I looked at many reviews and everyone gave it a thumbs up, so I decided to get one. I'm a "boomer". I wanted to get the best as I came back to cannabis after 40 years away from it! FYI: I have a POTV Lobo and Xmax that both work fabulously! but I had to get a "better" one!? Stupid me, I have a 2 working vapes that actually work produce tons of vapor, and I get "blitz" as well. But I couldn't leave it be! I now have a very expensive hand warmer! The IQ3 heats up, there is air flow but after 10 attempts I finally got a bit of vapor and a slight buzz! I wasted so much premium flower, so I suggest you practice with cheap discount herb and maybe you'll figure it out. I started reading reviews from other sights and sadly the IQ3 to produce any effect at all "everything" has to be just right for this thing to function, the right kind of herb, the right packing, the correct grind, the right heat in other words if every single thing is not right it will not do what every other vape does? So, if you're planning to purchase do your research, I thought I did but no then I found this forum to vent! In closing let me say that using a vape shouldn't be so hard you shouldn't have to practically be an engineer to make this thing work? So, if you're new to vaping like I was check out POTV and save yourself the anxiety and get something that works! The Davinci is so over engineered, too much to do to get it to work!

Battery life.
I have had my Da Vinci a few weeks now, the build quality is superb, nice and compact and easily fits in the palm of your hand, the massive drawback is the battery life, I fill up my bowl with herbs and it works fine for a few minutes, then the battery is flat, I don't even get to finish what's in the bowl, on the website it states the battery last 30 mins, this is absolute rubbish, mine lasts less than 5 mins, to be honest I'm highly disappointed with this after what was paid, I thought to myself I won't buy any old cheap vape and go for a bit of quality, so beware people the battery life is terrible. Also for some unknown reason it keeps switching itself off, all in all this product is rubbish for what I paid.

Davinci's seem to be disposable..
Davinci's seem to be disposable... They can't get completely clean unless you literally pour alcohol into the unit and pray for it not to get damaged 😅👍🏻 There's an uncomfortable space where tar and resin accumulates... You can't clean that... it's discussing and if you are a heavy user like me... You'll start to develop nausea and headaches because is disgustingly dirty inside. (And yes, I clean my vaporizer at least 1 or 2 times per week)
To finish this review; I have cut my hand, broke a couple of nails, and damaged some tools at home today when trying to clean this thing... I lasted 2.15 hours. This is not sustainable folks.
FYI: Smart breathing paths and battery issues started to arise at 1.5 months of purchase (Unbelievable) I wish I had read all of this

Save your money and your time
Save your money and your time. The davinci IQ itself produces some of the best vapor. I had the pax 3 for 2 years and just got the IQ. I love how it hits but the product quality is complete trash for a $200+ product. Customer service is flaky at best. Had to ship my unit in twice already in first 30 days of owning product. Received replacement and same issues a week later. If u get a working one then you’ll love it but good luck with that. You’ll soon be acquainted with customer service and be without your device for weeks at a time. Such a shame because it could be a spectacular product if it wasn’t fully of faulty manufacturer defects.

Oh God, the battery.
Bought the DaVinci Miqro about a year ago. I had to read the instruction manual 10+ times before just watching a youtube video, which wasn't much more helpful. They put a lot of work into the aesthetics; boxes for attachments/USB cable/cleaning supplies with matching color schemes fit perfectly into the main box under the felt cut-out the device fits into. It has everything you need to pack it and to get all the vaped product out right inside of itself, and the miqro is sleek and highly customizable to heat level (once you figure out how to use 3 buttons to navigate over 7 functions). Oh and it gives you little kitch messages every time you turn it off. While being plugged into your laptop/outlet the entire time you use it.
This product has so much potential, I wish they put any visible amount of effort into the battery. I have to be attached to the USB cable at all times, I've left it charging for over 2 hours and it has yet to last longer than 5 MINUTES without dying. I see other reviewers saying 20-30 minutes and I would be completely fine with that amount of time compared to the literal moments I can have once I turn it on after it's been charging for hours. It's a miqro. I didn't purchase it with the intent of passing it around a party like a volcano bag. But I would like to be able to bring it on a hike, or even walk into a different room in my house without it dying immediately. To add insult to injury, I do my best to keep this thing clean and EVERY time I open the "hatch" that contains the pastel colored battery (as I said, you can't fault them for their color palate) I almost throw it across the room after investing 20 minutes of my life getting that little latch to hold and stay shut. I also see the word "discrete" in their literature a lot, and with the amount of vapor that comes out and the smell, you might as well just move to Venice Beach.
Waste of money, and after reading quite a few horrifying customer service review stories, I think I'll just take this as a life lesson and never make future purchases from this company. 1.5 stars.
