Long time first time

Y’all probably get a ton of these so I’m sorry I’m advance 😅 been a stoner for a decade plus and have never really vaped dry flower and looking to get into a desktop unit. So far I’m hearing ball vapes are the bees knees so I’m looking at the vapor brothers vb1.5 but it’s a little out of my price range. I’m looking at about half that at about $200. It’s just me so I think I’ll like just a whip and not really use any bags. Any recommendations? TIA
