Review by Paula Coleman

Review by My Name

Military discount (possibly a student discount too?). They can help you with suggestions for new juices to try and will let you sample it. They'll also replace and clean the coil/glass and have a punch card system for extra discounts. Variety of product and all the people that work there are cool.

Review by Shelly La Mar

It's a clean place with a friendly and knowledgeable staff. They have a decent selection of juice, as well as units, batteries, parts and mods. The prices are fair and they carry quite a few brands. If you aren't sure if they'll have what you need, just give them a quick call. They can usually tell you right away if they carry it or if it's available at another store in the area.

I switched from cigs (for 20yrs) to vaping thanks to the crew at Central Iowa Vapors! They got a veteran discount and a punch card! So much cheaper and healthier than smoking! 😃👍🙏

Review by Yolo Scrap

Great selection, but waited 25 mins to be helped with 3 employees and 2 helping the same couple makes it hard to get customers in and out instead of trying to make a big sale they may not happen.

What is a Dispensary?

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.

At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.

What is the difference between a medical or recreational dispensary?

In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
