Disclaimer: Cigarti sent me a free e cigarette sample to enable me to write this review. I’ve made every effort possible to ensure I didn’t let this influence my opinion.
Cigarti are a company that offers something that little bit different from the other e cigarette manufacturers out there in that they have a vast range of different skins available for their batteries. This allows users to pick a style for their e cigarette so that they can stand out from the crowd of fellow vapers. If you aren’t familiar with e cigarette skins they are simply colors and patterns which cover the battery to make them look pretty. It’s something which can add a little excitement to an otherwise bland appearance, but I think it might be a gimmick which appeals more to females than the make of the species. Personally, I would rather just have an e cig which looks white like a regular ciggie, although I’d be tempted to get one in black if I felt like going really crazy. However, if getting an electronic cigarette which looks wild is something which is right up your street you will want to check out this brand.
In my opinion, getting an e cigarette which performs perfectly is much more important than getting one which looks funky, so let’s see how the cigarti compares to the other brands I’ve used.
Of course, the first thing we all notice when an e cigarette arrives in the post is the packaging. Cigarti have done a decent job in this department and the box they have come up with is a very nice little number which both looks and feels like good quality, it bodes well for the product as a whole.
The price of a starter kit form this company will set you back $90 which isn’t exactly cheap, but not terrible if the product lives up to expectations.
Inside the box you get the following components:
- 2 rechargeable batteries
- 1 USB charger kit allowing you to recharge the batteries on your laptop or from the mains.
- 6 Nicotine Cartridges
- A User Manual
- A Cigarti Membership Card
First impressions of the Cigarti e cigarette itself are favorable too. It’s an electronic cigarette which has a great feel to it and the carts come in really nice colors to indicate the flavor of e-liquid they contain.
What’s Good About The Cigarti Cigarette?
This is obviously a well built e cigarette, as you would expect now that this industry is starting to mature.
To my touch the battery appears to be ever so slightly narrower than those from most other manufacturers which gives it a nice feel in your hands.
This is a real easy e cig to get a draw out of, in fact it feels like you have to puff on it about exactly as hard as a regular tobacco cigarette.
The batteries have a long life which is more important than you might think if you haven’t used an e cig before. There is nothing worse than getting caught far from home without the power needed to get that hit of nicotine.
They have a large number of flavors to choose from so if your fed up with the taste of tobacco it will be a long time before you’re bored trying them out.
What I Don’t Like So Much About The Cigarti E Cig
Most of the flavors taste slightly artificial to me. The mint flavor has that slightly plasticy taste which I’ve also found so far with the Apollo and Breath Fresh e cigs. The tobacco flavor is quite pleasant but doesn’t have the throat hit I look for so it isn’t as satisfying as something like the Green Smoke or V2 cig.
The batteries are quite long. This isn’t something that really bothers me now that I’m so used to using e cigarettes but if are switching over from tobacco you might want something which is a little bit closer to the size you are used to.
There’s almost no discernible throat hit. This could be down to the fact that most of the flavor’s they sent me are only 6mg when I am used to using high strength carts. Still, I think in this day and age even the lower nicotine level carts should have some sort of throat hit as it’s an important feature if we are going to successfully switch to electronic cigarettes from tobacco.
The Cigarti e cigarette produces a medium amount of vapor, and you really need to take a couple of vigorous primer puffs to get a good draw because of the battery cut off. I’ve seen worse vapor production in the but not as good as the V2, and way behind the Green Smoke e cigarette.
Conclusion of my Cigarti Review
When you take into consideration the price, quality and performance of the Cigarti I have to say that it’s not a brand I would immediately recommend to my readers. There are just too many other products out there which will give a superior vaping experience for similar, or less, cash. The V2 has a wider range of accessories, tastier flavors and a more attractive price tag. Having said that you can get the same cool portable charging pack with the Cigarti which is also available for the V2. You can’t however get it as part of a starter kit at a discounted price so you will have to shell out an extra $40 to get your hands on it.
When comparing the Cigarti Vs Green Smoke you see that the later beats it easily for quality of vaping experience, and you can pick up a starter kit for about the same price.
The Cigarti seems to be quite a popular electronic cigarette from my research on the web but I’m not entirely sure why so many people are buying their kits when there are so many alternatives available. It could come down to their marketing efforts, or maybe a large percentage of buyers just like the skins they offer for their batteries. Whatever the reason, I suggest you take a look at your other options before you make that purchase.
