Great product. Easy to use. More like a real cig than other models. Last long on both cartridge and battery.

The easiest way to refill a blank cartomizer is to take our set of long tweezers and very, very carefully, pry off the white (or black) “O” ring on the mouthpiece. Once that is off, then you are able to use our Flex-Tip Cartridge Needle to fill the empty cartomizer, and then just press the “O” ring back onto the mouthpiece. And you’re all set! Do note that cartomizers are not meant to be refilled more than a few times as they use a much lower quality atomizer. I do hope that helps

Need a good throat hit? Tap the led on a table lightly with the cartrige hitting the table not the the light on the end of the ecig. Then cover the holes where the cartridge screws in at and then take a slow drag on it. If you use the menthol cartridge you will get a great throat hit.

I just got my starter pack in the mail today and I ordered 2 packs (5cartriges in each), of each flavor they have..this way I wont run out and can re-order long before I do. Since Ive already tried the disposable blue there was nothing to think about except the flavors. They have an excellent product and the vapor is much more in the starter packs than the disposable cigs… Since I can be a heavy smoker at times, I purchase one cartridge of non nicotine cherry and so What I do is take a few puffs of the nicotine until I’m satisfied and then I replace that cartridge with cherry non nicotine. That way I can vape as much as I want too without the fear of getting too much nicotine which will make you sick for awhile…

I have had my Blu’s for over a month. I have smoked a couple times at a party, but never will smoke real cigs. anymore. Quitting is hard, and even if you have a blu, there will be urges, so don’t be too disappointed in yourself if you smoke, just don’t go back!
Anyways, once I received my pack, after much research, I was hooked. I got the cherry, coffee, vanilla, and regular. The vanilla is strong/sweet, which is okay if your in the mood for a hooka. Cherry is not as potent, and in my opinion, the best flavor you have. Coffee didn’t hit well nor did it seem to last long. I don’t like menthol, and I didn’t really mind the tobacco flavor either way.
I did have issues with the batteries. One was constantly hitting on the cartrige (which ticked me off b/c it ruined a whole one), another battery just didn’t work after one charge. One was replaced with no issues, and am waiting for my other battery to be replaced. I wish the charge would last a bit longer on the battery, and I may have to have the case replaced, as it seems to not charge all the time, at least not without ‘jiggling’ the battery a bit.
Please Blu, I have referred a couple of my friends who just received their kits, and they love it too…so stop charging so much for shipping, its not that expensive for you to ship them.

They’re great! Except… they don’t last very long (or at least the 5 or 6 disposable ones I’ve used). I tested it with a friend, whenever he went out to smoke (real cigarettes) I followed with my e-cig. When the e-cig died, he still had about 5 real ones left in his pack.

I got mine from a store near by in the quit smoking area meijer. This is very nice when i need to refill all though right now they only know 1 flavor classic tobacco. The disposables along with the kit was which there everything that was mentioned above. So far I am very happy with the product and they stilll continue to improve on it. If you’re not sure I would buy a disposable 1 first as i did. I have also noticed that my breathing has improved. These could help save alot of people.

To anyone out there that is on the fence about wanting to stop smoking, or should I say wanting to vape instead of smoking. First I don’t work for the company I just am a happy customer wanting to share with you my experience. I want to share why I went wtih Blu and why it is something I am very sincere about. This company makes their cartridges in the USA. They use safe ingredients, they are like you really are smoking they are light and small and they come with a case to hold the batteries in. I have been using them now for a little while and I have to say they changed my life. I have had to call customer service many times because i have had a hard time understanding certain things due to my illness. No matter how many times I have called no matter how many time I have asked the same questions the reps are always kind to me. I know it is not easy to answer calls all day sometimes the same questions over and over again. Yet they always remain calm and nice and always willing to make things right. Every company may have some issues and that is okay as everyone will learn from things that go wrong. My experience with Blu has been a wonderful one so far and I feel will always be. I am a true Blu user for life. My advice is there are many companies out there, but I believe with all my heart this is the best one!!! So if you are thinking about going with an e-cig run to Blu and you will not regret it. My mom after smoking for 50 years saw my kit and she ordered on for herself and loves Blu and is glad she is with them as well. Again, I’m not an employee. Trust me, just a happy satisfied customer wanting to spread the word that Blu is the right choice and is number 1 in my and my family’s book. Best of luck to all that go Blu and I know you will all be happy.

Ive had the blu for awhile, i first got it when it was a 3 piece, i smoked 5 packs of 5 out of it and the atomizers fried. so i started smoking cigs again. i just ordered 4 cartimizers (atomizer/cartridge) and excited to get back to smoking my blu. should be here today, im waiting like a vulture!

shipment was fast, blu cig is small in size which is great, battery life is poor will last you only 2 days. The charging case given is awesome and convenient carrying case also. Vapor produce is okay not the most but good enough. Tabacco taste isn’t as good as I wanted but just okay.
Overall they get an average score
If I was told to pay more and you get more and would in a heart beat
Trying to quit cigarettes should not have a money value associated
E cigs is my only shot at actually quitting

I found out about this product after I purchased another e-cig. I was having dinner and telling my waiter what we did that we were stopping smoking real cigs. He pulled out this little device called blu. He said Elaine show me yours. So I did and he sold me it was light looked and felt like a real cig and he said he hasn’t had a real cig in over 6 months. That night I came home and ordered blu. Customer service was wonderful i got my order in 5 days and I have been so happy since, it looks feels and tastes like a real smoke but with no toxins. They have a fantastic product and now my mom just saw my kit and I ordered her one. My husband is still with the other e-cig as he likes the heavy part of the e-cig. By far this is the best company product out there. I”m hooked and no longer feel guilty for having my cig when i’m stressed etc. Thank you blu for your product and customer service
10 plus all around for your company. If your looking for quality go blu. Thank you for allowing me to voice my opion. Elaine a very happy Blu white pack owner.Good luck all.

I have had these Blu e-cigs for about a week now, as I wanted to thoroughly test them before giving a detailed review. I love them, as many of people have said, shipping is slow if you go with the free method, and expensive if you choose the other routes. So far I have tried the Magnificent Menthol flavor, and it’s great. I have tried Vapor King e-cigs, Vapor 4 lyfe e-cigs, and green smoke disposables, and have been disappointed with them all. Especially the vapor king models. I must have taken every single battery I bought back to exchange for a different one (about 6 times). The absolute ONLY complaint I have for the Blu cigs is I wish they would come with a high nicotine content option. See Vapor 4 Lyfe e-cigs came with a 36mg nicotine option which was the only nice thing about that company. Over all, I am very satisfied with Blu. I have actually ordered a second starter kit for my girlfriend, who also loves the product. Yes the battery life is a little low, but with that portable charger, it really isnt a problem for me. All in all, I have more energy since my switch from camel menthols to Blu cigs. I also sleep better too. I strongly stand by these e-cigs, and i recommend them to anyone looking for a one stop online store for a safer smoking alternative.

I love this company and their products! I’ve tried Njoy,greensmoke and smoke everywhere, blu in my opinion blows them out of the water, not only with flavor, but the charging pack is a must have. I was able to kick the traditional tobacco habit of 13 Years, and now only smoke blu exclusively

I had recently discovered my girlfriend had a smoking addiction and was very embarrassed about it. she’s not a heavy smoker, but when stressed its something she often turns to, like a coping mechanism. she tried to hide it from me because her past boyfriends have always yelled at her about it. so when I found out I initially though of ways to help her in those moments of weakness and not make her feel bad about her addiction. I first looked into e-cigs because it was so unique to patches or gum. it had a genuine feel of smoking.

ok long story short, I went to the local smoke shop and bought a blu tip disposable for her to try and see if she likes it.it was $12 and only came only in high nic. levels.I had no other brands to compair it to as the shop only sold blu brand products. the problems she had where: 1. it was really big and heavy and is difficult to hold like a normal smoke, 2. it didn’t really taste like the menthol she was used to, 3.it was too high in nic and made her light headed, she was used to smoking lights and was never a very heavy smoker. but after trying it, she said she could see herself using it.

I then bought the kit. that solved a few of the problems that she had with the disposable. it was much smaller and easier to hold.I had also purchased the low nic cartrages.( even though they only come with high ones in the kit, the smoke shop allowed me to trade the variety pack for one regular pack they had in stock.) the ease of draw is better with the real kit vs the disposable also. so my opinion the disposable is kinda a waste of money for most people, but it will give you an idea if its something you could feel comfortable using before you invest a lot of money in an expensive kit.

only other complaint I had was the color. the smoke shop carried this in black only. their point of view is it creates less confusion ans does not look like a real cigarette when using in public. but what I wanted was a realistic looking e-cig that would help her relate it to the actual cigarettes she was used to smoking. I could have ordered the white pack online, but it just seemed more convenient to buy it locally so she could use it right away.

overall I’m pleased with the product from my standpoint and I will ask her how she likes it, and if it has prevented her from buying another pack of cigarettes.

Shipments are ridiculously SLOW! Customer Service people don’t seem to care much when unhappy, very passive in maintaining customers loyalty and happiness in product. Battery’s charge fairly quickly BUT last just the same, they DO NOT last. You need at least 3 batteries in a day to keep going, so you always have one charged. It’s a constant to be charging these batteries, which is a pain!

This was the first ONLINE e-cig that I tried after using an e-cig purchased at a local store. I ordered the menthol flavor. It was shipped quickly. I thought the kit was impressive, and the cig is the exact size of a king size regular cigarette. However, the menthol flavor tastes NOTHING like a menthol cigarette. One other quirk I noticed was if you jostle the battery it lights up on the tip. When I e-mailed about the flavor question I received a quick response from the company. If you don’t want menthol, I would give them a try, you can always return it if it isn’t for you, which is what I did. I received a credit soon after they got it. BLU seems like a good company, just didn’t care for the flavor.

@Megan

The Best way i found to get the throat hit involves two things. 1) Tap the cig LED down on a table to get the liquid to the front of the atomizer. 2) Put your fingers over the holes where the cartridge screw in and take a long slow drag to heat up the atomizer.

The “throat hit” sensation comes from the heat when you burn actual tobacco. You can emulate it in an E-cig with a good flavor and a little bit of heat.

As far as the blu product goes i’m pretty happy. Charging the pack is a little touchy for me. I plan on cracking open my expended cartridges and adding more juice and paying for new “cartomizers” only when the old ones become unservicable

Love the product but VERY disappointed with shipping time ( they were ok for first initial stater pack) but been waiting over a week for my refill order, when u are out that is a very long time to wait!! On top of that the shipment options, if u want to get them earlier is ridiculously expensive over $50 for 2 day.. This is causing me to look elsewhere. Other than that and only 4 flavors to choose from ( other sites offer many more) it’s a great product.

I ordered a blu cig starter kit in black this past Wednesday. I just received it today (Saturday). I was happy to see it in the mail after only 3 days because I had read some horror stories about blu cig shipping. Everything came as promised. I love the look of blu… it’s so much smaller than other e-cigs I’ve used. I only have one complaint so far… I ordered menthol and I see tons of vapor, but I feel no throat hit of nicotine. I also ordered cherry and I feel a slight throat hit with those. Am I doing something wrong? I’ve tried dragging regularly, and I’ve also tried dragging long and slow… no luck. The throat hit is the part of a cigarette that I crave… I hope it gets better. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks fellow blu smokers.
