Storz & Bickel Veazy Weekend Review

I’ve only had the Storz & Bickel Veazy dry herb vaporizer for one weekend, but it’s a winner. It doesn’t replace a Venty with its tighter draw, but it lines up well against the Mighty+ and Crafty+. The vapor is the same, but it’s smaller with color choices and a lower price. We will build out a full review after we’ve had more time with the Veazy, but these are my thoughts after a few days of use.

The Veazy can’t hide in the hand, but feels great in the pocket.

Veazy – Most affordable S&B dry herb vaporizer

The Veazy will retail for $250, which is $10 less than the Crafty+ and $200 less than the Venty, so you can save some money with this vape. It’s taller than the Crafty+, but shorter than the Mighty+ by a hair. In my opinion, this vape effectively replaces the Crafty+ in the S&B lineup. Plus, it’s customizable with the S&B smartphone app!

Classic S&B vapor

The Veazy doesn’t disappoint in the vapor department. Sessions are just like all the other S&B portables – tasty, fluffy and effective. If you’ve ever used an S&B portable before, you kow what you’re in store for. The Veazy never overcooks the herbs thanks to its impeccable temperature control.

The Veazy bowl is the same size as all other S&B portable dry herb vaporizers. The lip at the top is a little shorter, but the bowl holds the same dosing capsules.

Not as open as the Venty

The Veazy isn’t going to replace anyone’s Venty – it’s just doesn’t have the same open air flow. I think it feels about as open as all the other S&B portables. While the vapor is stellar, it doesn’t have the same open, easy and comfortable draw as the Venty.

Check out the picture below. You can see how much more air can flow through the bowl in the Venty (left). The Veazy (right) has a tighter draw, and I have no idea what is directly below the bowl. It looks shiny and metallic…maybe some sort of metal mesh?

The Venty heater on the left has bigger holes and better air flow. I’m not sure what is below the bowl in the Veazy heater. I gotta tear this apart later!

So pocketable

The Veazy is the most pocketable portable from Storz & Bickel. It’s taller than the Crafty+, but its slimmer profile felt great in my pocket. I carried it around town for days in my front pocket and barely knew it was there. Check out how it compares to some other small vapes in the picture below.

7 sessions per charge

Interestingly, the battery life seems to be on par with the Crafty+, as well. I have gotten seven session per charge twice now. I tend to run a session until it’s over, and I run it at the highest temperatures. Your battery life may vary depending on how you like to use it.

The Veazy interface is simple – one button, one light, and a USB-C charge port. I got seven sessions per charge.

Four okay colors

To be honest, I was really excited about the orange color until I got it (I didn’t get to see any of the colors before I chose). But when I first got it I couldn’t help but feel like it was cheap. I know it’s a quality vape from a trusted manufacturer, but the colors don’t help. They’re matte, not shiny, and need more contrast on the bodies. All the buttons are the same orange color, and I think the button gives the needed contrast on the blue, pink and black versions. But the orange Veazy needs more help. I think I would choose black next time.

The Veazy comes in four colors – Black, Orange, Blue and Pink.

The web app is a must for me

Out of the box, the Veazy has one on-board temperature with two boost modes. With the app, you can customize each of these, as well as other settings. I changed my start temperature to 410F since that’s how I vape most of the time. I also activated the Permanent Boost setting so the Veazy doesn’t drop back down to lower temps after I boost.

This was a game-changer for me because I was constantly fiddling with the button before the adjustments. Now it’s set up just how I like it! You cna use the web app with any smartphone, and I also was able to connect with a PC.

I changed my startup temperature from 356F to 410F because I like to have all my sessions at the highest temperature. The Veazy remembers the temp change so I don’t have to use the app again!
I also activated the permanent boost so it wouldn’t drop back down to a lower temp after I temp step upward. (This is useless when I start at 410F, but great when I start lower.)

Great for beginners and S&B first-timers

I think the Veazy is a great beginner vape, delivering fantastic performance for a mid-tier price. I also think it’s going to be great for people who want their first taste of Storz & Bickel vapor. The price is lower than their other portables, but the vapor is spot on. But if you already have an S&B vaporizer, the Veazy doesn’t bring anything new but the size and color. If you’re all about the vapor and already have a Crafty+ or Mighty+, there’s no need to grab this one.

The Veazy controls are familiar if you’ve had an S&B vape before. The Veazy works almost identically to the Crafty+, without a smartphone app.

And now, let’s get to the rest of the pictures. Here we go…

Let’s take this cooling unit apart and see how it looks inside. Here I have pulled off the mouthpiece.
Like the Venty, the Veazy mouthpiece is used to unlock the cooling unit.
Just turn it 90 degrees and it’s ready to come apart.
It’s way easier to pull the top of the cooling unit off when it is still attached to the body of the Veazy. Here I have already removed the cover.
The cooling unit innards (left), housing (middle), and mouthpiece (right).
But the innards are two pieces stacked on top of each other. This is where it gets gooey after some use.
You can push the mouthpiece screen out from above once you take the cooling unit apart.
Push the power button and the light below turns orange while the Veazy heats up.
Once it’s ready, the Veazy will vibrate and the light will turn green. Solid green is the lowest temperature (356F/180C). Double-click the power button and the light will turn orange and flash until it reaches the second temperature (383F/195C). At the middle temp, the light will be a brighter green on the bottom half than the top half. Double-click the button again and the light will flash orange faster until it reaches the highest temp (410F/210C) and turn green. At this temp the top half of the light will be brighter than the bottom half.
Press the button once to turn the Veazy off, and the light will flash blue as it powers down.
Finally, here is a comparison shot of the Venty (left) and the Veazy (right). I wanted to show you how big the serial number sticker is on the side of the Veazy.
