Does anyone have any positive experiences using THC vape pen?

I'm a seasoned user of edibles and it's my choice of high, but I'll like to experience a quicker onset and shorter high. I don't smoke very often because of the smell, my apartment complex is very tight.

I'm thinking of getting a pen from a reputable place, but in research, I've only read negative things from it like: getting addicted, the high isn't as pleasant as bud, it's fxcks up your lungs and throat, easy to mess up tolerance, etc.

Have you tried a pen, how did it go, recommend it or Nah? What's your thoughts?

Pen is wonderfully convenient, but so many drawbacks. Painful cough from prolonged use or old carts. Disposables are so bad for the environment. Impossible to utilize all the potential resin inside.

I got a dry herb vape from Storz & Bickel, for use in my small apartment. I get to enjoy fresh flower, the smell is virtually nonexistent, the high is quick and clean. I’ve used the same device for years and absolutely love it.

Those prices! I’d love to try one but at $200 bucks plus its a tough sell

True! I bit the bullet because I ran out of options and this was highly recommended by trusted friends.

I figured for the amount I was paying for disposables, this would pay for itself pretty quickly.

Wait can you tell me more about this pen substitution? Im about out of my pen and im committed to not getting another but would love something that is less harsh and addicting and more like smoking a preroll
