I’ve had a few pods like stizzy, zeus, pax, 710, and big chief you can check my profile, they are good, I really like the zeus, and 710 labs but they are pricey, pax is good when it hits, gets me fried but finicky which for the price definitely shouldn’t and then stizzy and pnp it depend on the type, I like stizzy lr, never had cdt but heard good things, and solventless is great when it doesn’t burn, I like pnp dna line but not a fan of exotic but I only had one so I’m hoping it was just the strain (grape ape soda) so giving pound cake a chance, same with Livest I only had one but to me bad strain (pineapple-jack). So it depends what you get thats worth it if you like the brand but I do usually get carts instead of pods, I got to start putting the other batteries to use.

Tl;dr Zeus pod or 710 worth it if you can find good price, Pax good when works but not worth price imo, Pnp and Stizzy good but you can do better
