Bulk RTA any good?

Who has, or has tried, the Bulk RTA? I think it's either 27 or 28mm, so it's bigger than most. I thought it might look good on the G Class due to it's size and colors. I was unsure about flavor though since some of the larger RTAs don't have the best flavor. Plus it has top airflow, and I almost always prefer flavor from bottom airflow over top airflow. For those two reasons, I really didn't give it a second. But recently I've seen a lot of people raving about the flavor. One thing it does have going for flavor is that it basically has the Recurve Dual deck. I wanted to see what people here thought before I buy it. It don't like spending a few days doing a bunch of different builds then realizing that "great flavor" I heard about is actually just mediocre....
So who has the Bulk RTA, how is the flavor, and what are your overall thoughts on it?

Watch some reviews.
I have, but I'm not interested in what they have to say. I've bought atomizers that reviewers said had good flavor, but I thought the flavor was weak and so did people here. When searching Google in the past I realized a lot of people in this forum thought the same as I did, which was different from reviewers.
That's why in the first post I said I didn't want to form a decision based on what others thought, and I wanted to know what people in this forum thought

I don't have either of these, but Diesel RTA deck is more like Reload Dual than Bulk.

Glad you mentioned the Diesel in your reply! I don't know what was wrong with my head last night! As soon as I read Diesel RTA, it hit me that I'd been picturing it instead of the Bulk everytime I was in this thread.
Wow, that's crazy! It's crazy just reading that made me realize what I'd been doing. I saw another video on the Diesel RTA before I typed my question. You guys must have been thinking I was a mental patient! Someone should've called me an idiot and told me to look at the airflow!!
Thank you! Yes, the Bulk RTA has the BTFC deck! The Diesel RTA has the Recurve Dual deck.

* I knew you meant Recurve, not Reload. But speaking of the Reload RTA, the Dawg RTA uses a very similar deck

The diesel looks interesting. Being a former truck driver I really like the name. Only thing holding me back is I have enough dual coil rta's as it is, LMAO!

Something that drew my attention away was the plastic tanks. I don't vape citrus so maybe I'll revisit it some day. Really seems like manufacturer's don't get vapers. They always do something to detract. Something that we would pay for, like,, SMOKED GLASS. That would be pretty cool. So instead of cool and more $, it's cheaper with fewer customers.

Would be nice to find the right size glass to fit the tank. I'm with you, not a fan of plastic tanks.

Yea, a smoked glass would be awesome! They've done things with plastic tanks for a while, but glass only gets straight or bubble. I'm surprised no one has done it with glass, it can't increase the cost by much. I recently saw a lot by Eleaf that had stripes around the tank glass. I didn't really care for the way it looked, but was glad to see a company doing something new with glass. Maybe we'll see smoked glass come out before too long

I've had the bulk for about 2 weeks now or so and I love it. Big clouds, good flavor and I've been able to fit good size builds into it. The only issue I've had is that when I went to out my second build into it one of the grub screws stripped on me. The head where the Allen key fits was completely round. I had to drill it out! The grub screw metal is very soft. Other than that, not a single issue. Hasn't leaked on me at all, just make sure you wick it tight enough.

Thanks for the comment! That sucks about the grub screws, they must be super cheap metal! It is an Oumier product, though, so I guess it shouldn't be too surprising. When a deck has phillips or flat head screws pre-installed, I usually replace them with allen head before using it.
If you check the bags of spares that came with your other RBAs, you should find some grub screws that will work in the Bulk. When/if you do, let us know which ones work best

It actually comes with at least a full set of spare grubs. I'm sure this is the reason why lol. The grub screws use a smaller Allen key than all my other devices. Other than that I'm glad I bought it.
