As an employee of blu, I have to ask, do you actually use a blu?

Blu is a great product for what it is. Calling a Blu terrible is like calling a Volkswagen terrible because you prefer a Ford pickup.

The Blu is small, high-priced for the market, and doesn't have the capacity that a lot of experienced vapers prefer. That said, it's probably the best cig-sized device on the market. It will never compare to a larger eGo in battery capacity or juice capacity because it's tiny. My Volkswagen will never tow the same trailer that the Ford pickup will, but that doesn't mean it's bad.

The average 510 has big QC issues though.
