Green Smoke Review - Cost: $109.00 - $275.00

Rating:8/10

The Green Smoke electronic cigarette starter kits are some of the more higher priced e-cig starter kits on the market. I really enjoy smoking my Green Smoke electronic cigarette and believe that they truly have a high quality product. However I think the price could be lowered a little.

Update: Green Smoke now offers a 1 year warranty. So if you are a heavy to moderate smoker you will definitely get your money's worth out of your Green Smoke purchase. Green Smoke has one of the best warranties on the market!

Green Smoke sells three different styles of electronic cigarette starter kits. They all basically contain the same thing with a few different variations in batteries and cartridges.We will break them down in this Green Smoke review.

The first Green Smoke E-Cig Starter Kit (upper left) is for social smokers, it includes a home and USB charger, one battery and five electronic cigarette refill cartridges and sells for $109. The second Green Smoke electronic cigarette starter kit (bottom) contains the exact same thing as the social smokers kit. However it has one more battery and costs $139. The third Green Smoke E-Cig starter kit that Green Smoke sells (right) is called the love birds kit. This kit is essentially the same thing as two of the basic kits. The Green Smoke electronic cigarette love birds kit includes four batteries, 2 USB and 2 home chargers, as well as ten Green Smoke refill cartridges.

Although Green Smoke does offer an excellent product their price is a little higher than the majority of the other electronic cigarettes on the market. They also offer one of the best warranties on the market. So if money is not a concern or if you simply want the best the price factor should be easily over looked.

Green Smoke Review - Style

Rating: 8/10

At first glance the Green Smoke electronic cigarette looks a lot like a traditional cigarette. The Green Smoke e-cig filters (cartomizers) come in various colors depending on the flavor. Other than that it drastically resembles a traditional cigarette. When you take a drag off of the Green Smoke electronic cigarette the tip even lights up red. However when you hold the Green Smoke electronic cigarette you can tell that it is a little bigger than some of the other electronic cigarettes out there. But there is a reason for that and we will get to that a little later in the review.

Unlike a lot of the other electronic cigarettes on the market the Green Smoke electronic cigarette only has two parts. While most electronic cigarettes consist of a battery, atomizer, and refill cartridge, the Green smoke electronic cigarette's atomizer is built into the cartridge. So every time you go and screw on (yes they screw on) a new Green Smoke refill cartridge you are getting a fresh new atomizer. I really like this feature of the Green Smoke electronic cigarette although it is like a double edged sword, but we will get to that a little later in this review as well.

Green Smoke Review - Usability / Quality

Rating: 10/10

When it comes down to quality the Green Smoke e-cig is probably the best I have ever used. The amount of vapor that the Green Smoke electronic cigarette produces is amazing. Not to mention you DO NOT have to hit it very hard or long to get a boatload of vapor. You can simply take an average drag from the Green Smoke e-cig and you will be easily satisfied. Not to mention the e-liquid that Green Smoke uses is very smooth and does not burn your throat. However if you wanted to you can still take a big drag and get a big throat hit.

For this reason alone my wife does not even want to use any of the other three electronic cigarettes that we have.The biggest reason why the Green Smoke e-cig is so good has to do with how it is built. The two part system that they use is definitely a winner. Not to mention I have never had any e-liquid drip off the end or get into my mouth.

Green Smoke Review - Refill Cartridges

Rating: 9/10

When it comes to the Green Smokes E-Cig refill cartridges my initial thoughts are really fickle. On one hand the Green Smokes refill cartridges are some of the more costly on the market at almost $3 a piece ($14.75 for 5 refills). It just sounds expensive even though it is still half the cost of a pack of traditional cigarettes.

However the price is easily justified by what Green Smoke has to offer in each refill cartridge. To start off each Green Smoke E-Cig refill cartridge that Green Smoke makes has a brand new atomizer built into it. So you never have to worry about replacing a burnt out atomizer. This alone is the biggest reason why Green Smoke e-cigs hit so well. If you think of it most electronic cigarette companies sell replacement atomizers for about $10 - $20 dollars. Green Smoke is practically giving them away with each refill.

Another real big benefit to Green Smoke refill cartridges is the fact that they hold more e-liquid than any other cartridge I have seen. Each refill cartridge is equal to about 400 puffs from what they say, however I never really counted the drags I took. Most other electronic cigarettes on the market have refill cartridges that hold around 200 puffs. Therefore you get about double the amount of smoking satisfaction out of each refill cartridge. While most other refill cartridges equal close to 15 cigarettes the Green Smoke refill cartridges equal just over 30 cigarettes. So in all reality they are 2x the refill cartridge than any of the others on the market, making them some of the longest lasting e-cig refill cartridge available on the market.

When it comes down to flavors Green Smoke is a lot like the other electronic cigarette companies out there. They offer the traditional tobacco and menthol flavors as well as a few others (chocolate, vanilla, coffee). However the one thing that I really enjoyed about Green Smokes flavors is that they offer chocolate. I have not seen any other company offer this flavor even though most all of the others offer vanilla and coffee.Green Smoke also puts out new flavors every now and again.

There is one last thing I want to touch on about the Green Smoke refill cartridges, remember that double edged sword comment? Due to Green Smoke building the atomizer into the cartridge there is really no way to easily refill them. It is still possible but a pain in the butt. This forces you to keep buying Green Smoke refill cartridges. Although this is not necessarily all that bad since these refills cartridges have so much to offer.

Green Smoke Review - Batteries

Rating: 8/10

The Green Smoke electronic cigarette batteries are what makes this electronic cigarette kinda big. But not big like you would traditionally think of. The Green Smoke electronic cigarette is still only about as long as a traditional 100 cigarette.

However the Green Smoke electronic cigarette is a little big around the mid section. Making this particular electronic cigarette a little fat. So when you first start using it you will really feel the increase in diameter. If I had to estimate I would say it is about 1 1/2 the width of a normal cigarette or even compatible to a Camel Wide.

The Green Smoke e-cig battery is also fairly long lasting. Although it only lasts about half of a refill cartridge you have to take into consideration how long the cartridges last. Since the cartridges last about twice as long as your typical electronic cigarette refill cartridge the battery follows suit. So instead of having to switch batteries after 12 - 15 or so cigarettes worth of vaping (3/4 day) like you would with most other electronic cigarettes, the Green Smoke e-cig battery should easily last you around a day through a day and a half (depending on how much you smoke) before you have to screw in a fully charged battery.

Green Smoke Review - Atomizer

Rating: 10/10

I really did not know what to do with ranking the Green Smoke electronic cigarettes atomizer, since they are built into the refill cartridges. However since they are practically given to your with every cartridge and they do preform really well, I could not think of anything to do but give them a perfect score. After all what other electronic cigarette company gives you an atomizer with every cartridge?

Green Smoke Review - Chargers And Accessories

Rating: 9/10

Green Smoke offers a pretty wide variety of chargers to get your batteries back to full life. When you order your Green Smoke e-cig starter kit you will automatically get a home charger as well as a USB charger. This is more than some companies will give you with your kit.

However Green Smoke is really on their toes and has also made a car charger available for you. This is something that other electronic cigarette companies must of forgot about. So for $19.95 you can even keep your Green Smoke e-cig batteries at peak performance while you are on the road. This is pretty much a must have for anybody that takes frequent road trips or that has a job requires them to be on the road a lot.

Another great accessory that Green Smoke offers that very few other electronic cigarette companies have even thought of is a USB battery or USB passthough. You can simply plug this little beauty right into the USB port on your computer or even the home or car chargers that Green Smoke sells and you have a constantly full battery. This electronic cigarette battery feeds directly from the USB outlet so you never have to worry about your battery dieing again.

When you buy this USB battery it also comes with five refill cartridges and it only costs $40.00. So if you are really do not mind having a cord stuck to your electronic cigarette you could simply only buy this unit. However if you wanted to smoke in your car you need to buy the $19.95 car charger to plug it into. If you wanted to smoke away from the computer and you have an outlet nearby you can also get the $19.95 home charger. All in all it still gives the same great smoking satisfaction.

Green Smoke Review - Customer Support

Rating: 9/10

Green Smokes customer support really seems to be top notch. I only called them one time just to see how they where. However when I called my wait time was really short (less than 2 minutes). The lady that answered was kind, polite and eager to answer the couple of questions that I prepared for her.

Green smoke like some of the other electronic cigarette companies offers both online and phone support. This is a really nice advantage if you are not partial to sitting on the phone and would rather chat with a representative on the internet.

Green Smoke Review - Guarantee

Rating: 10/10

When you buy your electronic cigarette starter kit from Green Smoke they back it up with a 30 day money back guarantee. This is a great thing to receive from pretty much any company. A money back guarantee shows that the company is confident of their product, and that are willing to give you a refund if you for some reason regret your purchase.

But Green Smoke does not stop there. They go on to give you a complete 1 year warranty on your Green Smoke electronic cigarette. I have never seen any other company go and offer something like this (maybe I missed it). However I can see how it is easy for Green Smoke to do this. I am sure that it is covered in the cost of the starter kit and the fact that the only thing that can really die out on you is the battery / charger. After all you get a new atomizer every time you switch the cartridge.

Green Smoke Review Conclusion

Well it is finally time to wrap up this Green Smoke electronic cigarette review. I have to say that it has been a pleasure reviewing this great product. The Green Smoke line of electronic cigarette starter kits are second to none. They offer a unique design that offers more advantages than anything.
