Great Vapes

Hands down the nicest, most helpful vape shop around. I admit, I’m not the most knowledgable when it comes to the technicalities of vaping. However, it really didn’t matter when I came to this store. These guys are awesome, knowledgable, and super helpful. No pressure either. I have found my go to for all my vaping needs! Highly recommend!

Tonight, my boyfriend and I decided to take the leap into the world of vaping. I have a couple chronic neurological conditions and my neurologist and PCP have suggested I try CBD as an alternative method in the past. I’ve never really wanted to go that route because of the stigma mainstream society places on it, but in the past year my conditions have progressed and I’ve become limited in my synthetic pharmacology options because of sensitivities and allergies. A friend who has similar conditions started vaping CBD oils earlier in the week and had let me try it out and I got favorable results without any side effects or feeling weird. I’ve never been a smoker and my boyfriend quit smoking almost 20 years ago. I did enjoy the social aspect of vaping with my friend and the taste of her oils and my boyfriend thought he might enjoy vaping nicotine and CBD free oils himself for social enjoyment.
We live within walking distance of Great Vapes and after seeing the reviews on Unilocal decided to make it our first stop on our trek to do research into the cost and feasibility of this being a treatment option for me. When we walked in, Zack greeted us like we were old friends. We explained that we had no clue about vaping and my boyfriend had never really even seen a vaporizer, much less used one and that we wanted to learn about them before deciding if it was something we were interested in. Zack didn’t seem the least bit perturbed by the fact that we may not end up purchasing anything and he and another customer spent the better part of an hour explaining the ins and outs of vaping to us. He never made us feel pressured or like he was trying to upsell us anything or even sell us anything, to be honest. He treated us like we were old friends and he was telling us about a fabulous hobby that he wanted to share with us. I was a little nervous to ask about using CBD oils in the vaporizers because I’d read the back and forth debate online and I know a lot of people automatically associate them with marijuana use. I was afraid it would automatically be assumed we were stoners, but Zack didn’t even bat an eye when I finally worked up the courage to ask how it would would work in the vaporizer we were leaning towards, and to my great delight, he turned around and produced several different sized vials of different strengths of CBD oils! All different flavors even! AND at reasonable prices!
Once we were a little more educated, we decided on a set up and Zack sent us to pick out some flavorings. Then he showed us how to take everything apart and put it back together and how to use it. He was so patient with all of our questions and had an awesome sense of humor! I think he realized I was a little nervous about making sure I did it right and didn’t mess up our equipment because he told me if I needed to, I could bring it in and he would reload it and re-​prime it for me any time I needed to. He even went back and added menthol to my CBD oil after he’d already loaded it and primed it for me when I decided it needed a little more. Not once did he seem rushed or annoyed.
Everyone in the store was so mellow and so nice. We felt at ease and it almost was like we were being welcomed into a new club, as cheesy as that may sound. I would definitely be interested in taking my friend who also just started vaping back, to try the «bar» aspect so that we can try some new flavors and just sit and talk. Zoey was definitely a nice touch as well. ;-)

Kevin (The Owner) is wonderful!!! He has been so helpful with teaching me about the whole Vaping thing. He truly cares and wants to make sure you have the best product that suits you.
There are many vape shops much closer to where I live but, I rarely go anywhere else, because I always know I’m going to get the best service and the best products from Kevin and his staff.
PLUS, They have a sweet Yellow Lab that hangs out behind the counter ;)

Great guys here, rebuilt my coils for no charge and it was my first time there! House juices are awesome. Prices are pretty standard, above what you’ll pay online typically but competitive with other shops. Kev is the vape master! I recommend the Swedish fish, he mixes them at whatever nic and vg levels you want.

Just checked this place out. The owner knows exactly what system is going to be most effective for you. Try the cinnamon toast crunch!

Kevin was very friendly and personable. I like my juice really spicy and he recommended the Hot Tamale. What a kick it has! One of the best flavors I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this store.

This place is awesome! The atmosphere is great and Kevin helped me find the best set up for me. I was in this to quit smoking I spent a little over $ 100 and I am now 3 days without a cigarrette. They have vapes for everyone, including ego style, box mods, and mechanical mods.
We spent a little over an hour going through options I spent quite a bit of time looking over juices as well. The juice station is very clean and I wouldn’t hesitate to try any of the flavors there. The inside was spotless and when you walk in the smell is amazing.
If you’re interested I got the Eleaf Istick 50w and Aspire Atlantis sub-​ohm tank. This thing is a monster I have friends with drippers and they were wanting to use mine rather than there’s. Kevin will go through find you the right nicotine level customize juices and even walk you through the ins and outs of every piece of equipment you got. He did not try to over sell me at all. This is my first review on a vaporizer shop and most likely my last, because i will go nowhere but Great Vapes!
If I could give this shop 6 stars I would, look forward to seeing you soon!

What a great shop, Clean professional and very personable. Their tasting station was very very organised and squeaky clean. the owner Kevin was a great help, he went through how to use and take care of my equipment and how to trouble shoot if i ever had to. As far as their flavors go they make them fresh per your order they will do any pg/​vg combination along with any nic level you want. they even offer extra flavor shots!!! if you get a flavor and it isnt right or not what you expected after you leave the shop he will change it out for you free of charge, same goes with any equipment you buy there. he stands behind everything he sells 200%. One last thing i will put in is that unlike some other vape shops ive went to this one was not littered with teenagers or clutter or backrooms showing. Probably the best vape shop i have been to in years. I would definitively recommend to anyone from the experienced top end user to someone just looking to get into it. best service around as far as vaping goes.

Came here looking for my first mod after having a «meh» experience at one of the more popular vape shops in Columbus. The owner was very helpful, and let me play with everything for (literally) hours until I was confident with my choices. He was understanding about budget, and honest about the pros and cons of all my options. He wasn’t at all condescending when I wanted to make choices based on the visual aesthetics of a piece, but also truthful when something wouldn’t be ideal, despite being pretty.
Great Vapes line of house juices has some especially fantastic banana flavors. They also mixed up a custom cherry cola flavor for me when I requested more of a cherry punch. Because I was brought by a friend, she earned enough loyalty points to take home a free juice as well.
Plus there’s an adorable dog named Zoe. 5 out of 5 for Zoe too!
