Misthub Review: Shop and Learn About Vaping at The Same Time
Misthub began, like a lot of online vape retailers, as a mission among friends and vapers alike to spread the word about vaping. Not only that, but the founders of the brand also wanted to become experts themselves, about this new thing called vaping.
It opened in 2014 (although Misthub has an online presence only, not physical locations) and quickly became the one-stop destination for all vapers. The site did not only offer great deals on new vape gear and e-juices, but it became a place to learn about the technology and science behind vaping.

The MistHub founders have two goals. They want to be a reliable, affordable retail operation that gives vapers an unlimited selection of the best brands and devices in the business, but at the same time, they want the site to be a resource for new vapers. This has always been the mission of the brand and the business. They have succeeded in many ways.
Visitors to the MistHub site are, of course, greeted with the site’s special offers and deals, along with different product categories – such as the Best Temp Control Devices or Best Top-Filling Tanks – which are very helpful because they are so specific. The site also lets users browse the top-picks of the MistHub staff, which is also helpful since they are all expert vapers.
The rest of the site is also dedicated to various product categories. The site carries several e-juice brands – both regular and nicotine salts – while users can also check out the perfect devices to pair those juices with. The rest of the site’s contents are divided into neat categories like Tanks and Coils or Batteries.
The Tutorials section of the site is at the end of the main banner and it is where users can find such useful information as Vaping Basics, as well as How to Avoid Dry Hits or choosing the Best Drip Tip for your particular style or tank. There are also important safety tips, mostly dealing with battery usage or using the correct tank and coils with the proper mod.
The MistHub Product Line
The MistHub line of products is as extensive and versatile as any other online retailer. The bonus with MistHub is that you can also learn a lot more from its site than any other. The products available on the site are numerous but only cover e-liquid vapes, as the company does not carry any alternative vaping devices.
The OBS Cube FP is not so much a “cube” but an elongated rectangular mod that takes a single 18650 battery. It can power up to 80W with its proprietary chip inside that only works in wattage or voltage mode. The device has a sturdy zinc alloy construction and it has a side-facing 0.96 OLED for users to control the device’s features and settings. The OLED shows things like battery level, power mode, and also acts as a fingerprint scanner that can lock and unlock the device. The OBS Cube FP also comes with the Cube tank that can hold up to 4ml of e-liquid and comes with two mesh-style, sub-ohm coils.
The GeekVape Aegis Solo is a starter kit that includes the Solo mod that takes a single 18650 battery as its power source and comes with the sub-ohm Cerberus tank. The Solo itself features the same indestructible build as previous GeekVape mods with its IP67 waterproof and dust-proof construction and zinc-alloy chassis.
The Solo uses a rocker-style adjustment button on its control panel that also comes with a 0.91” OLED for users to control the device’s various settings. The Aegis Solo is outfitted with variable wattage, as well as temperature control for stainless steel, titanium, nickel, and Kanthal.
The Vaporesso GEN starter kit includes the GEN mod, as well as the SKRR tank. The GEN mod features a stylish, exterior design with its removable side panels covered in soft-touch rubber material and with its multiple divots giving it a unique tactile feel. The GEN takes two 18650 cells in its battery bay, which can power the device up to 220W.
The GEN also includes the AXON chipset, which gives the mod its multiple settings and applications including Pulse Mode, Power Eco Mode, Smart TC Mode. The kit also includes the SKRR tank that can hold up to 8ml of e-liquid and comes with two coil types: an 0.15ohm Strip Mesh coil and a 0.2ohm, pre-installed Mesh coil.
Lem’nBerry E-juice is a special blend from the mix masters at the e-juice company, Transistor. The juice pits two beloved tastes together in one e-juice, namely, the sweetness of freshly-ripened berries and the sour, tartness of lemons. The juice tries to weave the two tastes together throughout the vape, so neither is more dominant than the other.
Users will feel the bite of lemons right away but that is quickly tempered by the soft, juiciness of sweet berries on the exhale. The juice also borrows heavily from the first thing that paired sour lemons with sugar: lemonade, as the juice has a refreshing aftertaste.
Deals and Discounts
The Misthub site does not offer any explicit deals for vapers, but it does offer free shipping on orders over $65. There are special sections dedicated to deals and mark-downs on discontinued items or devices that are older models. Users should browse the site to see if they can take advantage of the company’s sales to get a good deal on quality vape gear.
Users can also apply for the MistHub Vape Rewards Program that gives buyers points whenever they make a purchase and for other occasions. Users can then claim their points for discounts on all vape gear. They can also collect points and save them for future purchases if they wish.
Delivery and Return Policies
MistHub has a very straightforward shipping and returns policy. The company ships only to customers in the US and to US military bases overseas, but nowhere else. It also does not ship to PO boxes. The company offers users several shipping options ranging from free shipping (the slowest) to next-day shipping.
If customers receive a damaged or defective item they must notify the company in writing and send back the item in question at their own expense. Depending on whether the company has the item in stock they will ship it out as soon as possible. The customer has 90 days to enact an exchange or return, after which they will not be able to return or exchange that item.
Customer Satisfaction
MistHub has a generally positive customer experience. Many vapers like the company’s vast selection of both hardware as well as the many brands of e-juice that they carry. The company also gets high marks for its fast shipping and low prices, especially when compared to other vape shops and companies that sell the same items.
The brand also has a good customer service rating, with many shoppers commending the company for its prompt, professional, and problem-free returns and exchange policy.

I was a smoker for over 25 years. In this time I also earned my medical degree with a specialization in addiction treatment and counseling. That period has led me to vaping, my interest started around 2011. I’m fighting the tide of hysteria and dis-information around vaping that emanates from various fronts legislative, cultural and scientific. Having scientific councils support, I’m happy to contribute my thoughts, articles, and expertise.
