Hi all - I am shopping for a vaporizer but after reading several reviews I am still unsure. Some of the reviews I feel are nothing more than marketing in disguise of someones opinion. I'm sure there must be some good feedback here from our user base. The top two seem to be the Volcano and Extreme Q. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

If you have the money, volcano is the industry standard. If you need portable, Pax is the best.
Personally, there's just a limit I would pay for a heating coil.
I recommend getting the Magic Flight Box or Vapir off ebay for ~$90 with free shipping. The only thing with these is that the chamber is not as large, so it's more for individual toking sessions.

If your looking for portable, I'd suggest getting an ecig and using it with BHO or CO2. Ecigs are much cheaper than products made specifically for cannabis. You can get one for around $40 or so.

Have you tried vaporizing before? as you may or may not like it.
If not I would suggest a cheap $10 glass vap before spending the cash
If you are looking for something cheap and portable vaporgenie or magicflightbox
If you want a desktop vap and got the cash volcano or silver surfer.

I love my mini pen, the only thing that is annoying is the coils burn out every now and then.

This is true if he were to convert to using oil as opposed to bud, which is easier to get, cheaper, and lasts longer in a vape. He'd spend more money and time getting BHO, and he'd have a hard time getting strain-related differences.
For good ol' bud, they can't be beat for an extra $40

Do you have recommendations for a BHO setup? Clearomizer? Cartomizer? Vivi Nova? What resistance coil works best? Voltage?
I already use ecigs, but never tried it with BHO.

Sorry I guess I should have been more clear. I already own the Pax and while nice it has a really hard drag and my significant other does not like it. So we are looking to shell out some money on a good non-portable unit. I had my eye on one for about $250 but then I thought what if that sucks and I have to shell out another 500 for a volcano. I thought who better to ask than all you like minded people who I know aren't trying to market something to me.

Silver Surfer is about $299 and is HIGHly recommended
Volcano is the Lamborghini of vapes ranging from $550 for the classic and $650 for the digital
Also the SS is a whip style vape while the volcano uses a baloon system

For oils its best to use a clearomizer/atomizer with a wick. I also have friends who use prefilled cartridges that you can use with your ecig, though I've never had one. Sorry, I don't have specific voltage/resistance info on the coils for you. PM me for specific brand recommendations.
Peace
