Arizer V-Tower Vaporizer Review

Updated: March 26, 2024
One of the more popular stationary vaporizers is the Arizer V-Tower. Arizer has made Canadian vaporizers famous around the world. The Arizer V-Tower gives you excellent quality at its relatively low price point, since it’s basically a simpler version of Arizer’s great Extreme Q vaporizer. Today we will review the Arizer V-Tower and give you and overall view of the unit. If you want to know more detailed rating, just visit the Arizer V-Tower Vaporizer product page.

Arizer V-Tower Vaporizer

How to Use It

The Arizer V-Tower is a standard whip style vaporizer. It is 100% convection as the air that flows through your botanical is heated rather than the heating chamber itself. Vapor is sent through the heating chamber to the whip as you draw. It has a very clear digital display for the temperature setting similar to the Hybrid Volcano and allows for precise temperature selection. It also comes with a potpourri bowl option for use as an air freshener. This is a great option since you can put it on right after vaporizing and avoid bothering other people with the smell of your vapor. While it is widely known that vaporizing doesn’t leave nearly as much odor as combustion, this option is sometimes referred to as the “stealth option”.

Vapor Quality

Arizer V-Tower
This unit has excellent vapor quality. You use the included whip to draw the vapor. We were able to extract excellent vapor with great consistency and nice flavour.  Since the unit features a high quality ceramic heating element and mostly glass components, the vapor is free of any unwanted impurities. The vertical glass heating chamber is still a signature Arizer feature that ensures heat convection is optimal. You might have noticed that the AroMed and Volcano Classic (the top two vaporizers in terms of Vapor quality) also have vertical heating chambers. In this category the Arizer V-Tower scores an outstanding 9 out of 10 with Arizer’s signature vertical airflow and glass on glass heating chamber.
Now if you’re looking to get the best vaporization experience possible with the Arizer V-Tower we’d like to recommend pairing your unit with the new vapor cooling device from ZEUSArsenal, the ZEUS Iceborn. This revolutionary device actually increases the vapor quality of your Arizer V-Tower by 2 points, dramatically cooling it down for smooth frosty draws. It’s also much more efficient than other filtration devices that use water, so you can get even bigger vapor clouds! Take a look!

Manufacturing Quality

Arizer V-Tower Vaporizer
The Arizer V-Tower Vaporizer is manufactured to very high quality standards. The unit features quality internal semiconductors, low defect rates, simple control panel and a beautiful stainless steel casing. In addition, it has a new quick-heating ceramic heating element. Users that prefer portable units over the desktop version usually lean towards the Mighty because of its strong build.
The Canadian manufacturing quality can definitely be relied upon. All Arizer’s units meet the highest standards for vaporizers and are assembled in Canada, which ensure that the quality tests are being done in-house. Quality testing is of utmost importance and many vaporizer manufacturers that have assembly set up in China can’t keep their defect rates below 3% like Arizer does. The warranty center of Arizer is also set up in Canada which makes any warranty process much less stressful. Unlike units bought from US distributors, units bought from TorontoVaporizer.ca do not need to be signed up for warranty (at the time writing of this blog post). All these little factors make the Arizer V-Tower shine in this category with another score of 7 out of 10.

Temperature Flexibility

The Arizer V-Tower makes it quick and easy to set your desired vaporizing temperature. It has an extremely accurate digital display that allows you to set your temperature to the nearest degree and multiple sensors that ensure the display is accurately reflecting the temperature. It performs great on both low and high heat settings and has a range of 50 to 260 degrees Celsius. It has one of the highest ranges among vaporizers, but we do recommend staying below 235 degrees Celsius when vaporizing. Users that desire the same temperature accuracy in their portable vaporizers prefer the Arizer Solo 2. It is one of the few vaporizers that comes closest to the Arizer V-Tower in terms of temperature flexibility.

Speed

Arizer V-Tower
This unit takes 4 to 7 minutes to heat up to 205 degrees. This is about the industry standard for whip style vaporizers. It’s also easy to fill and disassemble after use. You can also use the automatic cool down setting to vaporize some potpourri in the included potpourri bowl to freshen the surrounding area and mask any unwanted botanical odor with your essential oil of choice (lavender, lime, rose, etc.). In this category the Arizer V-Tower scores an average score of 7 out of 10. Some users tend to like units with a quick heat-up time like the Utillian 722, because they simply hate waiting and quickly get to vapin’.

Convenience of Use

The Arizer cyclone bowl is relatively easy to fill and the glass pieces sit into each other flawlessly. While glass is widely seen to be the best material to use in vaporizers, it is sometimes not the most convenient to handle. You have to put care into handling it or they will just break on you. The replacement parts are cheap (average price of 10$), but ordering the stuff online and waiting a few days for it to be delivered is sometimes inconvenient. You can get a tuff bowl and an extra elbow adapter to avoid vaporizing downtime. Some users that want to avoid vaporizers that has glass usually prefer units like the Zeus Arc GTS Hub because it has a gold chamber and gold is the most conductive metal on the earth. The Arizer V-Tower unlike the higher end model, the Extreme Q, does not come with a remote so you have to use the unit by pressing the buttons on the display. Overall the Arizer V-Tower is a low cost, high quality unit that is convenient to use.

Cleaning and Maintenance

The parts that need cleaning are the Cyclone bowl (heating chamber where your botanical goes), Elbow adapter, medical grade tubing and glass mouth piece. I would recommend taking everything apart. In order to do so with the whip (that is what the combination of the elbow adapter, tube and glass mouthpiece is called), get a hot bowl of water and let it soak for 5 minutes. Then you can carefully take apart the glass pieces from the tube. Do not forget to check the screens because they will experience high degree of build up over time that results in bad vapor quality. Make sure you do this since the sticky grime of the vapor can get you to apply to much force and break your glass parts. Once every part is separate you can soak it in an organic cleaning solution for a day and then thoroughly rinse it. Alternatively you can soak the glass pieces in rubbing alcohol and just clean the tube with water. The tube should be replaced every two months, since its super cheap (3.99$) and makes a big difference in taste if it is dirty.

Overall Experience

Arizer’s units are extremely popular because they’re inexpensive and very effective vaporizers. The Arizer V-Tower has slightly more limited functionality than its big brother the Extreme Q, since it doesn’t have a balloon option. You can read the comparison review of the Arizer V-Tower vs Extreme Q by following the link. But if all you want is a whip style vaporizer, the V-Tower is probably the best unit by far in its price category. It’s definitely not the absolute best home vaporizer and you’ll likely find something better, but those will cost more. It has outstanding manufacturing and vapor quality at an affordable price point.
If you don’t mind paying a bit more for more functionality, check out our Arizer Extreme Q vaporizer review for reasons on why you might want to consider this outstanding desktop vaporizer as an alternative.
If you’re looking for a more durable alternative to the Cyclone bowl that comes with the V-Tower, the Arizer Tuff Bowl is a great option and definitely worth checking out.

Compatible with ZEUS Iceborn
This vaporizer is compatible with the ZEUS Iceborn, a revolutionary new vapor cooling system engineered by Canadian vape manufacturer ZEUSArsenal. The Iceborn is designed to produce cooler draws and bigger clouds when connected to your vaporizer. The vapour produced is ultra smooth and crisp and because of ice cooling, instead of water filtration, there is no loss of efficiency. The ZEUS Iceborn adds an additional 2 points to the vapor quality score of this vaporizer and is a highly recommended vaporizer accessory.
