Instead Electronic Cigarettes store offer a great bit of educational information on it’s homepage, including the surgeon generals warning about nicotine, as well as a statement to say that they follow rigorous age verification procedures that verifies that the purchaser is of the legal age to smoke standard tobacco products in their specific state. They also inform potential clients that they will not ship the nicotine version of their products to Connecticut and Utah, but they can still ship the zero nicotine products to those states.
Products are shipped out within a maximum of 2 days, and shipping times are from 1 to 4 days. Shipping costs $9.00 per order. They offer 4 flavours of electronic cigarettes, namely Tobacco, Menthol, Apple and Orange. Instead is the first electronic smokes retailer that has orange flavoured cartridges. They also offer 4 levels of tobacco, High, medium, low and none.
Instead offer a slightly different twist on the electronic cigarette starter kit that I was keen to try out for myself. Basically what you get with Instead, for just a touch under 90 dollars is a kit that comprises two batteries, a charger, two atomizers, five cartridges, a tin and pouch for carrying, and a bottle of e-liquid that is the equivalent of 300 cigarettes. This as I’m sure you’ll all agree, is looking like it might be great value for money, and it is. The difference with the instead electronic cigarette is that you have to fill your own cartridges. That is what the e-liquid is for and the cartridges do not come pre-filled so you must do it on your own. You can get the nicotine solution that is either made in the United States, or opt for one manufactured abroad but there are currently only two flavors available, regular and menthol in a selection of nicotine strengths. I went for the U.S made one, filled up my cartridges, charged up my batteries and have to say I was extremely impressed with this product. The solution is rich and long lasting and produces a very good amount of vapor, the overall experience of using the electronic cigarette from instead is a good one, the e-cig is slightly bigger than a regular cigarette but this does not really word against Instead as it works so well. Most of al the fact that you get so much solution with your starter pack, as I’ve mentioned around 300 cigarettes worth, is fantastic value for money. Great product.
Instead is a company that is obviously trying to provide as much value for money for their customers. They encourage the use of refill solution for your electronic cigarettes by making it essential for you to learn how to do. None of their products come refilled so you have to purchase the solution in order to get your electronic cigarette from them to start vaporizing. I found that the starter pack with the e-liquid lasted me for almost 2 months which is more than any other brand of electronic cigarette I have ever tried. And you are not sacrificing quality for value for money when you buy the Instead electronic cigarette as what you get is top quality nicotine solution and a very well put together e-cig. I am very very pleased with this product. It has helped me make the switch away from unhealthy tobacco cigarettes and now I smell good, breathe easy and am getting fitter by the day and all this for less than 100 dollars in a package that will not require a refill for at least a month or two. Excellent product and great service, thank you Instead.
I am right behind this product as well. The refill procedure is very easy to learn and you’ll be doing it in no time. I’ve read people moaning about having to fill their own cartridges which I personally think is ridiculous. What could be better than taking control of your own electronic cigarette experience, not needing to purchase refill cartridges all the time, and getting better longevity and more value for money out of your electronic cigarette’s cartridges? I for one enjoy doing my own refills now and am a big fan of this product. I found that I got less than the advertised 300 cigarettes with the starter packs refill solution and less than two months use as the previous reviewer stated but then again I’m probably a heavier smoker or a person who draws harder on the cigarette. Regardless of all this I’ve found this product from Instead to be the best alternative to regular cigarettes going. Both in terms of value for money and the actual authenticity of the smoking experience. The taste is very authentic, the draw as well and the hit you get in terms of nicotine and the back of the throat feeling is great. I have stopped smoking tobacco entirely since having purchased this product and am really starting to feel the benefits. If you are looking for a reliable and affordable electronic cigarette that puts the working and upkeep entirely in your power this is definitely the product for you. Try it out and you will not be disappointed.
I love this product. Instead have given me the ability to take control of my electronic cigarette, refill it, get as much out of it and be at the center of the experience instead of having to sit waiting like a fiend to have their next fix delivered. The way they do business is excellent. Their customer service rocks and they obviously want you to get as much value for money out of their product as is possible. Only then will they be happy, because they know that a customer who feels they’re saving money is a customer that is sure to return again and again. These are the type of business practices that other electronic cigarette manufacturers should take heed of. The more you give to your customers, the more they will give back. And my experience with Instead electronic cigarettes has been a case in point as I have put about 8 of my friends onto this product as well as deciding to write this glowing review. And in case you are wondering, every single person I have recommended try Instead e-cigs has been very happy with the product and is still ordering with the company. Than you for a great product Instead. Keep up the excellent work.
