What a disappointment
I've never purchased a tank so dirty with poor threading or design before.
Haven't even tried to build on it yet, not sure I even want to.
The broken glass and smashed O-ring doesn't help any.

That screw touches the glass.
Very poor design.

Well that's shitty, I take it this is a Clone.

For me with The Tank the deal killer is the bottom fill, fucking hate bottom fill tanks. Love the ease of build and quality Vape I get from my SquapeRS I just don't like the bottom fill.

Anyway send that fucker back.

that sucks man. i ordered one from ft too (ss version), and right after i placed the order i read the comments about the bad quality. one guy over there got his with an un-threaded post hole (black version), so he cant even do a build. luckily, mine came in good shape. it was an easy build. wicking is solid and i havnt had a leak or anything beyond some minor condensation around the air intake. flavor is much better than i anticipated as well. im actually very impressed with mine. i got mine with a 26650 tube as kind of a novelty setup for kicking around the house. i like the performance enough that its in my daily rotation and i will often take it with me when i go out. the only thing i hate about it is carrying it around lol. its a lot bigger than my normal smpl tube that i usually take with me.

good luck with yours. i hope that once the rage subsides you can get a build on there and get a good vape to make up for the stress of receiving broken shit in the mail.

I'm also not big on bottom fills but that is all we had not too long ago.
Did hope for a bit better quality though.

Good to read that yours was good to you.
I'm not too concerned, I've got over 180 other tanks on the shelf. lol

Got mine over on efun, I think. No issues aside from the bottom fill, but I knew about that, so...

Yeah my first vape was with an Aspire Nautilus Mini, bottom fill wasn't too much of a PiA but still a PiA. Once top fill came out I won't get a tank that isn't top fill. I did get old school Tobeco Kayfun and the Goblin Mini with the bottom fill screw, I absolutely loath them.

That sucks about the overall condition and lack of QC. Being a relatively new vaper I feel fortunate that top fill tanks were more the norm and I didn't have to mess with bottom fill. There have been a few I've passed on like the older kayfun styles or orchid styles for that very reason. Just seems like a lose/lose, chances of wearing out the threading of the fill screw, seals leaking eventually, the general pia of having to remove the tank just to fill it.

With as much $ as I have spent since I started vaping and these being the absolute shittiest items I have purchased, I think I'm still winning.
Could be a lot worse off.
