“So I had both IQOS (I used ILUMA one with new Terea sticks) and Ploom X, and at the end of the day, I decided to stick with Ploom. Here are the reasons:
1) Ploom is not as dry as IQOS; when I smoke IQOS, I have this extremely dry feeling in my throat, and it's not as good as Ploom.
2) Stick tastes - in my opinion, Ploom X has a better range of tastes than IQOS does; most of the Ploom sticks I enjoy much more.
3) Overall effect is better for me than IQOS; with IQOS, I have this feeling of smoking "air" without the actual effects of cigarettes; with Ploom, it is different. I have almost the same "buzz" feeling as from cigarettes. For me, Ploom is something between IQOS and actual cigarette smoking; I'm not sure if it is as "healthier" as IQOS, but from the smoking experience, it is better.
4) Overall usability. Even though the initial impression of packaging and overall build quality is better in IQOS, after a while of using Ploom, on the other hand, it is simpler, more straightforward and more convenient for me. I have a feeling that Ploom spent more money on the device itself than on marketing and packaging.
5) Ploom sticks are slightly cheaper than IQOS. Usually, Terea sticks are around 6£ per pack while Evo for Ploom is 4.5£.
So considering all the above, for me, Ploom is better. But as usual, this is my opinion, and your mileage may vary. I decided to write a little opinion because when I was choosing between them, it was challenging to find some decent comprising between those products. It will be more helpful for someone.”
“Great idea ,bought the ploom but must admit was disappointed, when inhaling its very hot not only on your lips but on the throat also which has put me off using it,
A good idea would be to produce a similar item but whith a means of cooling the smoke similar to a normal cigarette, and also protecting your lips ,a simple silicone mouth piece would probably work with small slits in the bottom which pushes over the filter”
“Well , let me strat from the beginning as we can all see ,doesn't matter where but our habit goes up . So each person is trying to get something cheaper and good quality. Ploom is good for those who smoke iqos (heets) early because it has the similar taste . Of course there is one but() but it depends from the favour you choose. For me ploom lost the taste (amber ) is too strong and very long to smoke but mint is as a alternative of iqos I do recommend it .”
