PLENTY Vaporizer by Storz & Bickel
The PLENTY is a handheld vaporizer by Storz & Bickel that delivers desktop-grade vapour quality in a lightweight, silent package weighing just 680 grams. Built with German engineering precision and food-grade materials, it uses a double-helix heat exchanger and stainless steel cooling coil to produce smooth, flavourful draws across a temperature range of 130°C to 202°C. If you want Volcano-level performance without the bag system or the price tag, this is where you look.
What Makes the PLENTY Different from Other Vaporizers
The PLENTY sits in a strange and brilliant spot in the Storz & Bickel lineup. It's not a portable — there's a power cable. It's not a desktop — you hold it like a power tool. What it actually is: the most underrated vaporizer Storz & Bickel make.
The design borrows heavily from the Volcano's heating technology. That double-helix heat exchanger is the same principle that made the Volcano a legend — hot air passes through a coiled aluminium element, reaching your herb at exactly the temperature you've dialled in. The difference is delivery: instead of filling a bag, you draw directly through a stainless steel cooling coil that drops the vapour temperature before it hits your lips. The result is dense, cool, aromatic vapour that tastes like it came from something three times the price.
At 680 grams, it feels substantial but not heavy — like a well-made cordless drill. The trigger-style grip and orange power switch reinforce that tool aesthetic. It's not pretty. It's effective.
Build Quality and Materials
Every material that touches your vapour path is food-grade and aroma-neutral. That's not marketing fluff — it means no off-gassing plastics, no rubber taste on the first few sessions, no chemical smell when you heat it up fresh out of the box. The cooling coil is surgical-grade stainless steel, and the housing is built to survive being set down on a table a thousand times without cracking.
The PLENTY carries German TÜV certification, which means it's been independently tested for electrical safety, material safety, and thermal performance. Storz & Bickel don't cut corners here — they're the same company whose Mighty and Volcano passed Health Canada's medical device standards.
The one honest limitation: the power cable. You're tethered to a wall socket. If you want something for the garden or a mate's house, this isn't it. But if you're using it at home — on the sofa, at your desk, in the kitchen — the cable is a non-issue, and it means consistent heating power that batteries simply can't match.

PLENTY vs. Mighty vs. Volcano — Which Storz & Bickel Vaporizer?
We get asked this constantly. Here's how the three main Storz & Bickel devices compare for home use:
| Feature | PLENTY | Mighty+ | Volcano Hybrid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Portability | Home only (corded) | Fully portable (battery) | Desktop only |
| Vapour Delivery | Direct draw | Direct draw | Balloon / whip |
| Vapour Cooling | Stainless steel coil | Plastic cooling unit | Balloon expansion |
| Chamber Size | Large | Medium | Large |
| Weight | 680g | 135g | ~2kg |
| Heating | Convection (double helix) | Hybrid (conduction + convection) | Convection |
| Best For | Big draws at home, group sessions | On-the-go personal use | Dedicated session spot |
The PLENTY is the best Storz & Bickel vaporizer for people who want Volcano-quality vapour without committing to a full desktop setup. It heats faster, it's easier to pass around, and the direct-draw experience feels more natural than waiting for a bag to fill. If you already own a Mighty and want something with more power for home sessions, the PLENTY is the logical next step.
Who Is the PLENTY Vaporizer For?
This vaporizer works best if you primarily use at home and want something you can pick up, heat in under a minute, and draw from immediately. The large filling chamber handles generous loads, making it solid for group sessions — pass it round the sofa without anyone having to wait for a bag or reload a tiny oven.
It's also a strong pick if you're sensitive to vapour temperature. That stainless steel cooling coil does serious work — by the time the vapour reaches your mouth, it's noticeably cooler than what you'd get from a standard glass or plastic pathway. We've had customers switch from cheaper vaporizers specifically because of throat irritation, and the PLENTY solved it.
Not the right choice if you need portability. The power cable is about 1.5 metres, so you're anchored. For outdoor use or travel, look at the Mighty+ instead.

How to Use the PLENTY Vaporizer
- Unscrew the herb chamber cap by turning it counter-clockwise. Grind your material to a medium consistency — not too fine, or it'll clog the screen.
- Fill the chamber loosely. Don't pack it tight; air needs to flow through. For smaller amounts, use the liquid pad on top to reduce the chamber volume.
- Screw the cap back on clockwise until snug.
- Press the orange power switch. The orange light illuminates to show the heater is active.
- Set your desired temperature using the adjustment wheel on the side, below the power switch. Start around 180°C for flavour-forward draws, or push toward 195–202°C for denser vapour.
- Watch the analogue thermometer on the front of the device. When the orange control lamp switches off, your set temperature has been reached.
- Draw with long, steady breaths through the mouthpiece. No need to rush — the direct-draw system delivers consistently as long as you inhale smoothly.
- After your session, switch off the power and allow the unit to cool before cleaning. Brush out the chamber and wipe down the cooling coil periodically with isopropyl alcohol.
Complete your setup: pair the PLENTY with a quality herb grinder for consistent material preparation — even heating depends on an even grind. If you're using concentrates, the included liquid pad works, but having spares on hand means less downtime between sessions. Look at Storz & Bickel's replacement screen sets and liquid pad packs to keep your PLENTY performing at its best.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the PLENTY vaporizer portable?
No. The PLENTY requires mains electricity and has a power cable of approximately 1.5 metres. It's designed for home use — lightweight enough to hold comfortably at 680 grams, but not battery-powered. For portable Storz & Bickel performance, the Mighty+ is the alternative.
How long does the PLENTY take to heat up?
Around 60–90 seconds to reach operating temperature, depending on your setting. The orange indicator lamp switches off when the chamber hits your target temperature. Compared to the Volcano, it's noticeably faster.
Can I use concentrates in the PLENTY vaporizer?
Yes. The included liquid pad sits inside the filling chamber and absorbs concentrates or oils, preventing them from dripping into the heating element. Place a small amount on the pad, reassemble, and vaporise at a slightly higher temperature (190–202°C works well).
How do I clean the stainless steel cooling coil?
Remove the cooling coil from the unit and soak it in isopropyl alcohol (90%+) for 20–30 minutes. Rinse with warm water and let it dry completely before reattaching. We'd recommend doing this every 10–15 sessions to maintain airflow and flavour quality.
What temperature should I set the PLENTY to?
Start around 180°C for lighter, more flavourful vapour. Move up to 195–202°C for thicker clouds and more complete extraction. The adjustable range runs from 130°C to 202°C, so you've got plenty of room to experiment and find your sweet spot.
Is the PLENTY as good as the Volcano?
Different delivery, similar vapour quality. The PLENTY uses the same convection heating principle and food-grade vapour path. The main difference is direct draw versus balloon. Many users prefer the PLENTY's immediacy — no waiting for a bag to fill, no valve fiddling. Vapour density and flavour are comparable.
How loud is the PLENTY vaporizer?
Virtually silent. Unlike the Volcano, which has an audible air pump for filling balloons, the PLENTY has no fan or pump. The only sound is a faint click when the thermostat cycles. You can use it in the same room as someone sleeping without issue.
