I've tried many different disposable vape, many different mods but this by far is the best I've tried. It's helped me quit smoking, I would recommend to anyone trying to quit.
By Eddie from England
Got the other day long lasting battery good for the money
By Mike from Plymouth
Purchased instead of the elf bar 600, Great price and the flavours are really good.
Very fast delivery.
By Els from UK
I use to smoke anywhere between 20-30 rollies a day. Tried every vape I could and nothing worked and made me want to go back to it. I have been using this for around 6 weeks now and it is the best vape I have ever tried. I have now cut down to around 3 - 6 rollies a day and still cutting down as the weeks go on. Couldn't recommend highly enough!
By Pete from Wales
Great little vape to buy, best alternative to smoking i've found.
The pods are great, lots of great flavours and not as wasteful as the disposable pens. defiantly recommend picking one up.
By Anonymous
Had a pretty good experience with the elf mate so far. Decent value for money with the pods however i do seem to be getting through the pods in a day whereas an elf bar would last me two days.
By Joey
This is a really good alternative to disposables, but it does seem like i get through pods on this a bit faster than I would a normal elf bar. Not sure if that's me though
By Jon from Eastbourne
Value for money, so easy to use. Just snap a pod on and off u go. I haven't tried all the flavours yet but the ones I have tried are as good as the disposables. I have found the mouth piece can become quite hot if using constantly
By Callum from UK
This is just as good as disposables only tried the grape in it yet its a bit looser draw than normal elf bars but its comfortable good flavour cant go wrong for price
By Tashaa from South Yorkshire
Love the vape so easy to use and lasts me all day. Just wish the pods was a bit bigger or they bring out there liquid to go with there new refillable vape
By Sean from Merton
I've used loads of disposables vapes, when you add it up you end up spending loads of money. This vape helps save money in the long term with the same great taste.
By Green Eyes from Southampton
I vaped previously a few years back and found the whole situation a ball ache. Changing coils, filling liquid, leaks, glass chambers smashing, you name it I suffered it and gave up.
A friend showed me this and so I thought why not try again, the price was so reasonable.
Haven't had a cigarette in almost a week, 1 pod lasts me around 3 days, 100% no leaks, sleek, smooth and not a ball ache. Charges really quickly and the pods are a good price.
My only concern is that there are no pods with less nicotine just 20mg which is very high. I hope they make some eventually so I can wean down.
By Steph from Hampshire
10/10 Brilliant for beginners like myself. Saves a lot of money from buying cigarettes. Enjoyed the disposables and this is cheaper in the end just buying the pods. Great battery life, inhale activated, no leakage, sleek and compact design. Overall very satisfied. Definitely recommend for new vapers
By Anonymous from Leicester
I bought this device after giving up vaping to use nicotine pouches - mainly due to frustration with finding the right kit and for something more discreet around campus. I work part-time in a vape shop and couldn’t find the right kit for me whatsoever no matter how many I tried.
This device is absolutely full of flavour, is cost effective and has a great inhale activated trigger that is barely affected by battery level. The discreet nature and ease of changing pods is ideal when out and about - I would probably suggest buying two devices and a vape carry case if you’re after guaranteed all day vaping but for the price you can’t really complain.
By Zakariya
Loving this device, has a bit of a looser MTL Draw which I prefer, 2 Pods at around £6 is much better than just one Disposable and you throw away a flavour cartridge rather than an entire device.
By Martin from Basingstoke
What can you say simple yet by far the best pod device on the market & the uk will be getting the Elf Bar RF350 Refillable Pod 1.6ml these pod fit this Elf Bar so looking forward to being able to have to pre filled disposable pods & then able to using my mass of other elquids
THIS IS A MUST HAVE !!
By Syed from London
10/10 Brilliant for beginners like myself. Saves a lot of money from buying cigarettes. Only downside is maybe the need to charge it every other day, lasts me one and a half day of continuous use from a single full charge. Great battery life, inhale activated, no leakage, sleek and compact design. Overall very satisfied, as I have ordered 2 kits, keeping one as a backup. Definitely recommend for new vapers.
By Dhal from Northumberland
The battery can easily last me three days as I don’t vape all day long. The design of the elf bar is great and I have purchased another two for my family members.
By Robert from Ayeshire
Elf Bar 500 is an amazing alternative to having a big chunky vaporiser I love the disposable bales but going though the fast, with this it’s a simple case of swapping out the flavour pod whenever you want, the bar itself is a nice sleek design which feels good to hold and can easily go into your pocket and have on the go with you. 10/10 would recommend
By Hayley from Liverpool
Best pod vape ever!!
Anyone that uses disposables should switch over to this. Tastes better than disposables, more intense flavour, same smooth hit.
I was buying a disposable vape from my local shop every day, for the price I was paying over 4 days I get 12 days worth from these. Charges in about 15 mins, lasts the whole day. When the pod runs out just take it out, put a new one in wait 3-5 seconds and your good to go. Would highly recommend!!!
By Kayleigh from Uk
I recently stopped smoking using disposable devices as a general vape kills my throat and just doesn't have the taste I want.
I came across these and thought it would give it a go.. I'm in love!! So much more affordable than buying disposables and the flavour from all pods is next level!! Wouldn't go back now and this site offers the best deals and prices! Believe me I've scoured the net !
By Taylor
Definitely one of the best rechargeable vapes I’ve bought. Tried the disposable ones but found I was buying too many of them so was very glad that I found this one. And the pods are definitely cheaper in the long run.
My only issue is that I wish there was a little bit more choice when it comes to the pods but all in all a great product
By Elf Bar Mate 500
This is the perfect little device with easy changeable pods X2 in a pack cheaper than buying 2 disposable bars every time and last just as long battery last a gud day if not chain vaped
And a good selection of pod flavours to choose from
By Chris from Port Talbot
Tried the elf bar disposables and loved them over all other disposables. Finding they had this with the pods, it's the perfect size to pop in your pocket, nice and light. Pods are easy and fuss free to use and work out cheaper. Battery charges quickly and lasts all day.
Best buy
By Mat from London
I love this pod system, a great alternative to disposables. However, the only complaint I have is that as I like to swap flavours often, the notches that hold the pod in place are easily worn down, making that pod loose. The pods are disposable so not an issue with the battery as such.
I now have two of these running to avoid changing pod so often.
By Kuxx from London
Having used the Uwell CaliburnG/Caliburn A2 and quickly getting fed up with changing out coils and pods this Elf bar mate500 is a great alternative. Cheaper than the disposable bars and also having a more consistent draw, it’s a great and easy alternative. Would definitely recommend!!
By AR from UK
I tried the disposable elf bars a while back and loved the flavours.
Having found that they have a pen, I quickly bought it alongside some of pods.
The pen has the quality you'd expect; It's not heavy in your hand and I imagine it would break should you be reckless with it. That said, I've dropped it a few times and it's still absolutely fine.
The flavours are some of the best I've had. My personal favourites are "pink lemonade" and "kiwi, passionfruit and guava".
Overall grabbing one of these is infinitely better than constantly purchasing the disposable elf bars; it's cheaper overall (2 pods for £5 compared to 1 disposable for £6) and it's (slightly) better for the environment.
By Kelly
Great alternative to the disposables. It arrived quickly and was incredibly easy to set up. Doesn’t feel any different than the disposables and the best rechargeable vape I have tried. Amazing price too! Lovely colours and plenty of choice
By H from Northamptonshire
Doesn’t leak, great flavour and vapour. 100% would recommend!
By Jack from Birmingham, England
I’ve been using the Elf Bar Mate 500 for about a month now. I bought the Elf Bar Mate 500 because it is cheaper to buy a box of two pre-filled 2ml pods for £4.99 (or 3 boxes for £12 on Vape Club), than it is to buy a disposable Elf Bar for £4.99. The colour is nice (Aurora Blue) and looks even better in real life, and it feels very high quality. The pre-filled pods taste slightly weaker than the disposables in my opinion, but are still just as good and are very smooth. The only downside to buying this product is, from my experience I haven’t been able to find the pre-filled pods in shops anywhere and vape shops don’t seem to stock them, but the Elf Bar Mate 500 is still fairly new so that could be the case. However, buying the pre-filled pods from Vape Club is still cheaper than buying disposables, even if you don’t meet the minimum spend for free delivery, so it’s a win win.
By Holly from Skipton
It's pocket sized, cute and really easy to insert pods
By Charlaustin7 from Shropshire, England
Better value than the disposable, most disposables are 2 for £10, but this is 2 pods for £5 saving money all the time. Great puff and the battery is good given its well charged. Would recommend over disposables
By K from Bournemouth
Best product, so easy to use and light weight so very good for travelling. The puff is great. I brought this rather than buying disposables everyday as buying the pods works out cheaper as u get two in one pack. Do recommend this to all my friends
By K from Bournemouth
Brought this instead of buying disposables and it is great, it’s lightweight and easy to carry good for travelling
By Sam from Hertfordshire
I have bought many different devices over the years but found it all a bit of a faff with having to change coils (not always easy when on the go) and remembering to carry spare bottles of juice, not to mention the bottles and various devices leaking in my pocket or bag and I always ended up back to cigarettes as they were easier and less work. Eventually I switched to disposables and always bought the Elf bar disposable vape pens. I bought this Mate bar as soon as it was released being a massive Elf fan and I've not been disappointed. As well as being aesthetically pleasing it is a powerful little device with great flavour and throat hit. They have not got all of the flavours yet but have the most popular ones. Its so easy, just pop another pod on and it's ready to go. Just remember once you've clicked the button to 'activate' the pod, wait at least 3 seconds before trying to vape otherwise you will burn the coil and it will be a wasted pod. I usually wait a minute or so just to be on the safe side. Charge wise I get a full day with this and I'm a fairly heavy vaper. Only slight niggle is that with a disposable vape pen I would get a day and a half to 2 days out of one pen, but these pods I can sometimes get through 2 a day but on average seems to be one and a half a day. Both disposable pens and these pods have 2ml e-liquid inside so I didn't understand why this could be at first, in hindsight it could be due to being more powerful than the disposables. Either way, they are still great value and excellent flavours especially if like me, you are a lazy vaper and can't be bothered with the faff and the mess sometimes caused by the bigger and more classic devices. Each to their own, but for me this has hit the right spot and I've been fully cigarette free for 5 months for the first time since starting vaping.
By Pete from Essex
Fantastic service as always from Vape Club. This ‘Elf Bar Mate’ is brilliant! I’ve alway preferred Elf Bar juices as they’ve knocked it on the head with their flavours, and I used to buy their disposables, then I saw this thought I’d give it a go….brilliant! The flavours are the same if not better coming from a proper ‘coil’. 2 air holes either side so I can restrict for a true MTL or leave them uncovered for a semi DL.
Top notch again guys, ordered one day delivered next day, thank you.
By Billygirl from Uk
This vape is best for flavour, battery life, gives a good nicotine hit and produces a lot of vape. No complaints at all. I have tried many vapes since stopping smoking, this beats the rest.
I’ve tried closed and refillable systems, please give this a go if you are looking for a convenient trouble free vape.
I love it.
By Sam from North Yorkshire
Purchased this after having soooo much trouble with regular vapes. If it wasn't leaking, it was coils burning out within a couple of days, plus liquids just don't taste as nice in regular vapes as the disposables. This is a fantastic little device. No faffing with coils, no leaking, no burning taste, cheaper than disposables but with the same level of flavour. Can't fault it at all.
By Nat from London
So when it works I love this and it’s identical to the disposables in taste for me. If it worked consistently would be a 10/10.
However, I have issues with it sometimes leaking. Other times it doesn’t fire. Also I go through the refills at an astonishing rate (maybe due to the leaks!?)
Maybe I’m just too heavy a vaper for this device and I’ve somehow broken it? They’re so cheap that I’ll probably order another one incase this one is just faulty. My friend got one the same week and hasn’t had any of the issues I’ve been experiencing.
Will update once I’ve bought another.
By Sillysam89 from Essex
If you like the disposable vapes you’ll like this!
I’m hella lazy when it comes to vaping which is why this is perfect! No coils etc to replace and clean! Just pop a new pod on the top and away you go!
Device came fully charged too which was nice!
For the same price of one disposable bar you get 2 replaceable pods which is also a bonus!
Love the colours they are available in too! Very nice! Very happy with this device! Hopefully they bring out some more flavours at some point too! The pink lemonade is so good though! Highly recommend!
By Lew from Watford
What a perfect little discreet device.
Fits in the pocket no problem don't even notice it there, the battery lasts ages considering its only 500mah and charges super fast I timed 22mins.
The build quality is strong
As for the pods they do loads of the best flavours from the disposable versions, they vape really good plenty of cloud and decent throat hit.
Decent airflow aswell not too tight or loose just right!
Perfect alternative for the disposable lovers but without all the waste.
All round device for the price
By AP from London
Might just be me (for 2 seperate devices) but i had multiple issues... firing by it self, not pulling on occasions. burning pods and on one device the whole inside battery and charge port came out the bottom.
A shame as not bad flavour when it did work (nothing compared to the Elf disposable sticks - but good for a pod device)
By Wael Abu
Absolutely love it, battery is last me all day, could do with more flavours
By Sho from South London
Love these little pods so lightweight and easy portable. The flavours are amazing. I love the elf bar brand and have been using their disposables for some time. These are better for the environment and more value for your money. Would highly recommend.
By Sue from Luton
Great little pod best I have had and great flavour
By El
so much easier to deal with, great to use as a beginner, very good.
By Ellie from UK
Having the light weight pod with the pre-filled pods is so much easier and cost efficient against the disposables. 2 pre-filled pods per pack cheaper than a single disposable, you don’t have to buy replacement coils or glass like you would a normal vape, it’s so much easier.
By Graham from Coventry
Tried the standard elf bar and love most of the flavours, however I noticed you don't use all the juice before the battery dies. These have the same convenience and great taste also you use all of the 2ml of juice. They work out cheaper in the long run as 2 pods cost about the same as one disposable vape pen. If you enjoy the others definitely try these
