I’m going to start this Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe review with a quick observation about the way the pipe looks. As far as appearance goes, it’s a vaping device you are either going to love or hate. Although it has got a lot of style, it may be too modern-looking to appeal to a lot of people who are used to smoking a traditional pipe. However, if want a stylish e-pipe with some nice design features, it’s a model you could easily love.
Nevertheless, the Kamry K1000 Plus is a nifty-looking e-Pipe that comes in a choice of brown or black and has grained-wood effect that many pipe smokers will find appealing.
However, if you are a pipe smoker, you will probably be used to a pipe that consists of two main parts—the bowl and the stem. Possibly with a metal band in between.
E-pipes are a little more complex. Several parts are involved.
When you dismantle the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe you will find a few parts that fit between the stem and the bowl, including the tank where you place the e-juice and the atomizer coil.
The stem of the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe is not much different to that of a tobacco smoker’s pipe. It’s just a nice-looking tube with a flat tip that sits in the mouth.
The bowl of the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe is little more complicated. It houses the battery and has the fire button on top. There’s also an LED light but it doesn’t simulate the glow of burning tobacco in the same way some other e-pipes do. All you get is a ring of blue light around the fire button. You will see this flashing when you switch the device on by pressing the fire button five times.
If you are thinking of making the switch from a tobacco pile to an e-pipe, don’t let the extra parts put you off. The Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe is not as complicated as it looks and, although you will need to replace the coil when necessary and top-up the tank with e-juice, there will be no need for any complicated rituals to keep the e-pipe clean.
That’s actually a lesson in itself. Although you can see the things tobacco smoke does to a pipe, you can’t see what it does to your lungs. After you have used the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe there will be no stains or tar build-up to see.

Special Features
One of the nicest features about this particular e-pipe is it’s designed to sit neatly on any flat surface without the need for a pipe stand.
The other great thing about the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe, is the special anti-heating drip tip that keeps the stem temperature below 15 degrees while vaping. That’s the preferred temperature for drinking coffee so this is an e-pipe that’s designed to be kind to the lips.

How Much Does the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe Cost
(And is it Worth the Money?)
Buying this e-pipe isn’t going to break the bank. You can usually get one from Amazon for around £38. Other dealers may charge a litte more but rarely more than £40 (Information correct at the time of this Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe review.)
If you are new to vaping or considering buying this e-pipe as a gift, you need to be aware there is no e-juice included. You will have to buy that separately but, again, this won’t break the bank.
The majority of vaping devices are sold minus any juice, but it’s possible to find many cheap e-juice deals online and prices can be as low as £2 – £3 per bottle.
Even if you chose one of the more expensive e-juices, you could easily have all you need to start vaping for less than £40. That’s a small price to pay to rid your home of tobacco smoke and be kinder to your lungs.
Is the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe worth the money? Absolutely. Many e-pipes don’t look as good but cost considerably more. However, as mentioned at the beginning of this review, the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe may be a little to modern-looking to appeal to some people’s tastes.
If you are thinking of ditching tobacco and buying an e-pipe instead, the Kamry K1000 Plus E-Pipe is a very good choice and it comes in a smart presentation box that makes it an equally good e-pipe to give as a gift.
