The Storz & Bickel Crafty Vaporizer: Power Meets Portability
Designed and produced by German company, Storz and Bickel(S&B), The Crafty Vaporizer, is The Mighty’s bang, without its hefty buck. Longstanding creators of the Volcano, it’s no shock that S&B is constantly adapting to customer concerns by creating and updating a solution. Compatible with flower and concentrate, S&B redefines diversity in the vaporizer market.
Cannabis bible High Times Magazine considers both The Crafty and Mighty as some of the best herbal vaporizers of 2018. S&B consistently challenges their competitors by raising the bar when it comes to what to expect out of your vape. Our personal added bonus is the S&B filling aid which makes for ease of use and helping to keep your device clean.
The latest update in 2018 saw The Crafty get a 20% battery upgrade. The Crafty even has an app which has multiple features including temp control and device location. Comparing in size with smaller, weaker vapes, The Crafty, matches the force of The Mighty, accompanied with 10°F boost option for an extra push.
The device operates simply via one button, in absolute spite of S&B’s complex inner workings to achieve their trademark thick and flavourful clouds. The name of the device speaks for itself in the way of providing you with a plethora of tools and replacement parts. Unlike some vaporizer companies, even more replacements and accessories can be purchased.

Love the product. Much longer battery life than the previous iterations of Crafty, which only improves the experience.
James M –
Great product and service, newest version which was awesome.
Vasko –
Simple fast service. Excellant stuff !
Dan –
Great Vaporizer for beginners as well as the advanced. Very cool high quality vapour. Haptic feedback is very handy and a useful bluetooth app (default settings are not hot enough so you will need to pair it to a phone)
Unfortunately the battery does not last long and it is not user replaceable (unless you are a tech wiz) so if you plan on using this as your main vaporizer then its probably not a good idea
Dan W –
Superb product & the accompanied service by Cityvaporizer absolutely top notch. Fork out & do ur body with the quality it deserves.
Khalil A –
I loved using this vape..but it’s barely been a couple of weeks and the plastic groove that the lid rotates to lock in have chipped off.
So..for such an expensive vape a little disappointed. Might have to go back to pax 2. 🙁 Not sure what to do with this vape now.
Sam C –
Outstanding device, very happy with product. Using the crafty for 2 months now with no issues. Would like the battery to last a bit longer but understand the device would need to be larger to accommodate. Highly recommend this if you’re in the market
Roger E –
Quality product German excellence and professional service !
Mim –
Pretty good so far. Vapar def not as seen in vids. But very cool. Pleasant. Convenient. Pretty exy.
Bob M –
Great product, works great, battery is rubbish and needs to be either replaceable OR much larger capacity.
I emailed S&B about making one with a replaceable battery and they had no plans for it.
Pretty stupid if you ask me.
