Stortz & Bickle Volcano Plastic Herb Grinder, 2.3, Orange

I absolutely love this grinder. I was hesitant to purchase at first due to the material of this grinder being plastic but since it's made by a legendary vaporizer company, I decided to try it out. Turns out, this inexpensive grinder works better than my expensive metal ones and I have found the storage compartment area (on top of grinder) to be very useful/super convenient.

I first used this well-designed little gem when I purchased the "Volcano" vaporizer, which is a $500 balloon-type vaporizer. This thing is made out of hard plastic, and the teeth seem to grind herbs really well and quickly. I only have to do about 1-2 turns, and my herb is ground! So, when I sold my vaporizer, I kept the grinder. Then, about 10 years after using it every day, it finally was put out to pasture. Then, I ordered another one. I'm sure I could have gotten any random company's version of a plastic herb grinder, and it would have been okay. However, Storz & Bickel got it goin' on, and I highly recommend this particular "plastic herb grinder"! It's excellent. A bit pricey but worth it.

It grinds/shreds my herb differently than traditional grinders. I like the way it shreds my flower and I've decided it is a better grind for my dry herb vapes than traditional metal grinders. I have several dry herb vapes -- an Arizer Solo 2, a Utilian 722, both a POTV One and Lobo. I also have a desktop-- an Arizer V-Tower.

Sharp Acrylic or possibly Polycarbonate teeth make short work of grinding flowers to a consistency that rolls or packs better than if they were just broken up by hand.The teeth are mostly self clearing, but more resinous buds will gum them up, especially if you're grinding more than one at a time. A rolling tray and stiff brush (for clearing the teeth) are recommended for keeping the mess under control.As far as the storage area goes, it certainly doesn't hurt to have it there in a pinch, but it's not well sealed and can be hard to get all of the stored material out of.If you need a cheap, compact, yet truly functional grinder you won't go wrong with this!

Just as good as one that I bought at the special store! It's very nice it works really good.

I've owned a lot of herb grinders, and until I bought this one, my favorite was a Mendo Mulcher made of a solid aluminum billet. But this inexpensive grinder absolutely outperforms any other grinder I've purchased. I buy a bunch and give them away I like it so much, and they're that inexpensive. It has a built in storage area for extra grind, and is transparent so you can see how finely ground the herb is without even opening it. It shreds it down perfect for my Pax or my Volcano. Great grinder. HOWEVER - this "StorTz" and Bickle may not be an original, and they are less than 5 bucks on the company web sight, so maybe don't purchase it here...

Not as durable as the original that comes with a storz volcano. Only lasted a week before cracking.

The grinder works okay, it doesn’t feel particularly sturdy, but I haven’t noticed any broken teeth yet. I like the teeth on the edge, it allows for grip while grinding (this gives a very fine grind +) . One thing, this grinder doesn’t have a neodymium magnet inside of it like most plastic and aluminium/aluminum grinders do, so the lid does NOT stay on when it’s closed. I just use a sturdy rubber band to keep it on, but I wouldn’t buy this again.
