Best PuffCo eRig For 2025?
-
PuffCo Peak Pro 3DXL
👑 Editor's Pick For Dabbing
The PuffCo Peak has been my go-to rig since it came out. When the Pro 3DXL dropped, I had to try it. I didn't think it'd be that much better but it has the OG model whipped in a few, key areas. If you want the best possible e-rig experience on the market, and you can stomach the price, this is as good as it gets right now.

I didn’t expect to love this one, but here we are. The Pivot is absurdly quick. Heat-up time is 20 seconds, which is just ridiculous. No app, no menus, no overthinking anything. You pull it out, fire it up, and go. And the 360° rotating mouthpiece? Weirdly awesome. It’s not as customizable as the Proxy, but for speed and discreet hits on demand, the Pivot nails it.

This is the kind of vape you end up showing off at parties. It’s compact, but once you realize you can drop it into anything, it changes how you think about dabbing on the go. I’ve been using the Proxy for a while now and honestly, it’s like LEGOs for stoners. The vapor is clean, flavorful, and the 3D chamber tech actually makes a difference. It's not the cheapest out there but if you're into concentrates, it might be the coolest.
What’s The Right PuffCo Vaporizer For You?
If you’re going to dab in 2025 and you’re not using a PuffCo vaporizer, you’re in a very small minority.
In the past three years, PuffCo has basically become the de facto eRig brand for everybody from veteran, long-time stoners like myself to beginners and medical users.
The reason for this is simple: PuffCo rigs are simple to use, they work flawlessly, and they all hit like goddamn freight trains.
And they have a model for basically every kind of user too.
I own all three of these and I love each and every one of them dearly, but they’re all kind of designed for different use cases.
Here’s how it breaks down:
- The PuffCo Peak Pro 3DXL is the flagship, a full-fat smart rig with a massive chamber, full app control, and wireless charging. It’s built for serious concentrate heads.
- The PuffCo Proxy is for glass collectors and customization freaks. It’s modular, stylish, and endlessly tweakable. Plus, the 3D chamber tech is no joke.
- The PuffCo Pivot is the ultra-portable speed demon. It’s simple, fast, and fits in your pocket. No app, no BS, just proper on-the-go dabbing wherever you like.
Which Is The Right For You…
For Heavy Users & Tech Geeks That Want The Best Of Everything
If you want the most advanced, most powerful, and most customizable dab rig PuffCo makes, the Peak Pro 3DXL is 100% where it’s at right now.
I own the OG model and its successor, but the 3DXL run rings around both in a few, key areas that make a huge difference.
This thing has a massive 3DXL chamber (it’s 78% larger than the original) and it can handle the biggest dabs you throw at it while still delivering incredible flavor.
It heats up in 20 seconds, runs for up to 40 sessions per charge, and supports Qi wireless charging.
Plus, you get full app control for temperature, session time, and custom heat profiles.
Yes, it’s expensive. But if you’re looking for the best, this is the PuffCo to buy. It’s the GOAT of e-rigs right now.
For Tinkerers, Customizers & Glass-Heads
The Proxy is modular. Its removable core can be dropped into a huge range of custom glass pieces and third-party accessories.
It’s also fairly portable too, so if you like to dab on the go and you love using glass and other accessories, the Proxy would be the one I’d recommend for you.
Want to rip dabs through a Sherlock pipe? Cool. Prefer a bubbler setup? You can do that too. There are dozens of aftermarket options already, and more dropping all the time.
The flavor is top-tier thanks to the Proxy 3D Chamber, which heats your concentrates from the sides (not the bottom), preserving terps and delivering super smooth vapor.
You also get Bluetooth connectivity and full control via the PuffCo app which makes it super-simple to dial in precise temps and session times.
For On-the-Go Users That Want Something Simple
The Pivot is all about speed and portability. It heats up in just 20 seconds, charges in 45 minutes, and offers up to 15 sessions per charge.
The coolest part? The 360° rotating mouthpiece and spill-proof design. This is the most travel-friendly device in the range, so if you like to dab on the go, the PuffCo Pivot is the one to go for.
It doesn’t have app control, but that’s kind of the point; it’s designed as a stripped-down, bare bones eRig for use outside the house at parties and festivals.
It’s not as powerful as the Proxy or the Peak Pro 3DXL but for a portable dab rig it still packs a massive punch.
If you want something that fits in your pocket, hits hard, and gets the job done without any fuss, the Pivot is perfect.
Bottom Line / Key Takeaways
I’ve been a PuffCo fanboy ever since I first got my hands on the OG PuffCo Peak. It was easy to use, looked amazing, and it hit better than anything else I’d tried up to that point.
PuffCo products ain’t cheap, but I’d argue they’re well worth the investment. I test A LOT of dab rigs and the cheaper ones are always terrible by comparison.
Like with white wine and whisky, you really cannot go cheap when it comes to dab rigs or vaporizers. The quality drop-off is just too extreme and they break far too easily.
Premium brands like Storz & Bickel and PuffCo make hardware that lasts. My OG PuffCo Peak still works as good today as it did when I first got it. And it has seen A LOT of action.
Out of these three options from PuffCo’s latest range of dab rigs which is the best overall?
If I had to pick just one? For solely at-home use, it’d be the PuffCo Peak Pro 3DXL.
It’s just so damn good and the improvements PuffCo has added over the outgoing PuffCo Peak actually add plenty to the user experience.
Everything is just bigger, more powerful, and simpler to use.
Having that said, I do really love my PuffCo Proxy.
It strikes the best balance between power, portability, and customization.
Plus, the ability to collect glass accessories and change up your rig whenever you feel like it adds a level of fun that the other models cannot really match.
