My Experience with the Legacy PRO
My first run with the Legacy PRO was fantastic.
In testing the Legacy PRO, I packed a bowl of some super fire flower that I got from a local grow op. This is some top shelf herb that is packed with flavor and figured it would be a good way to test how well this vape transfers flavor.
I tend to vape small bowls so I loosened up the micro-dosing disc to compact the size of the bowl. I set the temp to 320F.
I’m a big fan of vapes with exact temperature control displayed on a screen. This makes it convenient to dial in your temps as vape temperature is important for getting the best experience.
Great vapor performance
As soon as my targeted temp was reached, I noticed I wasn’t getting much vapor. I waited about another minute (as displayed on the shutoff countdown timer) – then that’s when I really started to notice great vapor clouds and an extremely tasty creamy flavor that transferred over from my buds like I’ve never experienced before.
This vape does such a fantastic job of delivering taste and flavor. So delicious.
Although the vape reached a temp of 320 quickly, it might still take about a full minute or so for the bud to really start releasing full vapors.
Make sure to use a quality grinder that will shred up your buds well. With a convection vape, you want to maximize surface area for hot air to pass through evenly and for more dense vapors.
Kannastor GR8TR Grinder Editor choice
Lately, I’ve been using the GR8TR grinder from Kannastor. This high end grinder uses interchangeable grind plates, allowing you to do either a fine or coarse grind. Read this article for must have dry herb vape accessories.
In the end, the Legacy PRO produced a sizable amount of vapor that was very enjoyable and induced a nice buzz.
Legacy PRO drawbacks
One of the drawbacks, which is a pet peeve of mine with vapes, is that little pieces of weed come out of the chamber and get stuck around the air vent screens and the micro-dosing disc. Fortunately, this is less of a problem with the PRO model versus the original Legacy vape. As long as you keep it clean, the vape should continue to perform well.
Built-in micro-dosing disc
I like the fact that the microdosing disc is built into the device, rather than requiring a separate microdose insert to carry around.
However, the disc can be difficult to rotate as you can’t tell how far it can spin before unscrewing from the device completely. It’s also difficult to tell how much of the chamber volume size is actually reduced from loosening up the disc. It is a great idea though and I will have to experiment with this more.
AirVape also offers separate capsules for microdosing. You preload these capsules with your dry herb and pop them in the oven for convenient pre-dosed dry herb vaping.
I still need to test out using the concentrate pad for vaping wax and playing around with different temperature settings. I’ll be sure to update this review when I do so.
So far though, I love the look, feel, and performance of this all new Legacy PRO. It’s solid as a dry herb vape.

Don’t buy this vape. I was cleaning it with the cleaning tools provided according to the instructions from the manufacturer and the tip of the q-tip that they provided broke off in the small area where the glass air way connects. I destroyed the rubber gromet (seems glued in) trying to get the cotton out, which I was unable to do. I now after owning this device for a few months at most have a $270 useless chunk of e-waste. I do not recommend this product. Please get something easier to clean!
