\n

Today we have another showdown among two budget vaporizers, the Utillian 420 and the G Pro Herbal. The G Pro Herbal is actually the same thing as the Kandypens K-vape for the most part, so the conclusions we draw here hold for both. If you\u2019re considering buying any of the units that have been mentioned so far, make sure your read this comparison because one of them is a much better value…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Utillian 420 vs G-Pro Herbal\/Kandypens K-Vape<\/h2>\n
\"Utillian<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n


\n<\/a>\"Vapor<\/a>Vapor Quality<\/h3>\n
\n

The Utillian 420<\/a> offers the best vapor out of any under $100 vaporizer by a landslide. At these prices, you normally have to sacrifice in this department as it’s the most expensive thing to do well (along with battery life).<\/p>\n

While it obviously isn\u2019t going to compete with units like the Solo 2 or the Crafty, the 420 it is still very impressive. It doesn\u2019t feel like you are using a budget vaporizer at all because of the glass mouthpiece and ceramic heating chamber. The vapor is smooth, flavorful, and very enjoyable.<\/p>\n

The G Pen pro vaporizer<\/a> shows its colors as a budget vaporizer here. The vapor just isn\u2019t very good. It seems to avoid combusting your herb, but that\u2019s about all the positives I have to share. The flavor is okay for a draw or two, but quickly tapers off to being bland and then dry or burnt.<\/p>\n

It also becomes noticeably harsher the more draws you take. Not to mention the short vapor path and cheap plastic mouthpiece. It is<\/i> vapor, and it does get the job done, but it is not a very good experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
<\/div>\n

\"Manufacturing<\/a>Manufacturing Quality<\/h3>\n
\n

The manufacturing quality of the 420 is another area where you\u2019d be forgiven if you forgot that it’s supposed to be a budget vaporizer. This has a digital screen to show you the temperature and battery life, four different temperature settings, and a glass mouthpiece.<\/p>\n

The finish is also nice and it feels sturdy in your hand. Once again, it\u2019s not going to compare to more expensive units known for their build quality, but the 420 is still very impressive for the price.<\/p>\n

The G Pro Herbal is just a mass-produced vaporizer that the manufacturer puts private labels on. That\u2019s why you can find the exact same vaporizer sold by so many brands with almost no modifications at all.<\/p>\n

The build quality is average. There is nothing glaringly wrong about it, but there isn\u2019t anything special to mention either. I would have like to see less plastic, especially with the mouthpiece. Another thing I don\u2019t like is how hot it will get when you\u2019re holding it, even on low temperatures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

\"Ease<\/a>Ease of Use<\/h3>\n
\n

These are both very easy to use. There is just one button on both of them, and that button controls the power and temperature setting. To turn these on, you just click the button 5 times.<\/p>\n

To adjust the temperature, you press and hold the button. The 420 has a small advantage thanks to the digital screen, which makes it very easy to see and remember what temperature you have selected and will tell you the battery life the device is turned on and off.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n
\n
\n

\"Discreetness<\/a>Discreetness<\/h3>\n

I think the size and shape of the 420 make it more discreet than the G Pro Herbal. For starters, you can hide more of it in your hand. The only thing that will be showing above it is the mouthpiece.<\/p>\n

The shape and curve of the base also looks like a flask, which may be advantageous depending on where you will be. With either of these, you\u2019ll want to remember to choose one of the lower temperature options to keep visible vapor and odors to a minimum.<\/p>\n

This is true for all vaporizers, but even more so for budget options that may not be as good at preventing overheating.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n
\n

\"Utillian<\/a>SHOWDOWN<\/h3>\n

This was less of a showdown than it was a brutal beatdown.<\/p>\n

The 420 is definitely the king of budget vaporizers. It beat the G Pro Herbal, along with all the other variations from different manufacturers, on every category except battery life, where they tied.<\/p>\n

At the end of most showdowns, we try to find the positives in both even if there is a clear winner. In this case, I wholeheartedly recommend that you buy the Utillian 420 instead of the G Pro Herbal or the Kandypens K-vape regardless of what you are looking for. I literally can\u2019t think of a single reason to buy them considering the 420 is an option.<\/p>\n

I haven\u2019t even mentioned the biggest kicker of them all yet.<\/p>\n

The 420 is CHEAPER.<\/p>\n

With all things considered, if you\u2019re choosing between these two. You won\u2019t regret it.<\/p>\n

Also be sure to check out our comparison between the Utillain 420 and Pulsar APX<\/a> and of course our portable ranking chart<\/a>, to see how these 2 stack up against the rest of the field.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
