VEVOR Essential Oil Distillation Equipment, 2L Capacity, Made with 3.3 Borosilicate Lab-Quality Glass, Includes a 1000W Heater and 24/40 Joint Connections, Comprehensive 28-Piece Kit

I was very pleased with the product and the quality. I didn’t like the user manual and the steps to set up the apparatus, I had to resort to external sources to learn how to put it together as the instructions are not clear. Otherwise the package was safe and delivered on time!

Heat pad was not strong enough had to buy another one.

Product is not as advertised. The condensor inlet is NOT 24/40, which makes it difficult to use in any other context than with the provided boiling flask. Basically useless except in the system. Given the ubiquity of cheap chinese lab glass, its very disapointing to see Vevor advertise standard sizing but fail to live up to its claims. Connecting components with rubber stoppers is a fools game when ground glass connections are the standard and would probably cost not much extra. The alcohol lamp is worse than useless--get a cheap $5 hotplate and a metal bowl filled with sandbox sand to seat the boiling flask in. Glass quality is good, instructions are completely useless (watch youtube videos to set up), distillation rate and quality are about as good as can be expected from a sub $100 kit. Not displeased with my purchase, but have moved on to buying higher quality individual glassware to continue my hobby.

BEWARE: Suplander is a 3rd party - NOT VEVOR and they DO NOT uphold VEVOR replacement guarantee. BUY DIRECTLY FROM VEVOR NOT THIS VENDOR. 05/17 - 2000ml Borosilicate Reservoir Glass Flask arrived defective with 3 chipped/cracked areas, (therefore unusable) and I cannot get through to the 3rd seller for help. 06/01 - UPDATE. This seller gave me the run around that lasted about 2 weeks. They offered to "settle" the case by crediting me $70 ($149 purchase) and said that I could to buy another flask elsewhere. Issue is that Vevor has proprietary "neck" sizes, another flask is not available for purchase from other vendors, nor Vevor. I checked Vevors site directly, to see how much a new flask would cost from them. Vevor does state that they do not sell the individuals items separately from the kit. However, Vevor will replace any item from the kit if it comes damages. As was my case. However, Suplander does not uphold the warranty that Vevor offers. Very grateful to AMAZON representative that assisted me with a A-Z case. Thank you Amazon! Long story short. Do not buy from Suplander, buy directly from VEVOR!

I use this for determining alcohol by volume of both our wines and distilled spirits. It does what I need at half the price of buying the parts from "established" laboratory suppliers.

Serves as intended

I received my kit yesterday afternoon. I set it up, which wasn't as difficult as I had previously thought. My only suggestion would be that you put the hot plate on a fire/heat safe platform and adjust all the flask holders and what have you according to that height. Setting it up on a flat surface doesn't allow for a proper distance between the beaker for catching hydrosol and the catcher itself. I started some plant material with about 1150mL of water in the flask, at 430/5 PM and took everything down at around 1 AM, and the water never reached boiling point, even at the highest setting. The thermometer is in Celsius, so I had them converted to Fahrenheit and only made it to 90 degrees Celsius. The hot plate wouldn't stay on for longer than 10 seconds. it would click on then, right after turn-off, and did that for 6 hours. Ultimately, don't bother with the hot plate; the flask has a sort of rounded bottom, that isn't fully flat and I think that also may have been a part of the issue. Buy a better one or use your stove somehow, it will get a better distribution of heat that way, otherwise, you may end up wasting HOURS of your life waiting for it to boil water. I wouldn't recommend this hot plate as a cheap alternative to other cheap hotplates; spend a few more dollars on the better ones. All in all, besides the hot plate being janky, it's not a bad setup for the price range.

Once you figure out how to use it and buy an alcohol burner and a small pump, it actually works quite well. You will need to get these 2 extra items otherwise you will be looking at a hole lot to f nothing. The instructions are terrible, so I hope my photos and video will help to show how to set it up.

Nickel !

Would like to apologise. It was in-fact with a neighbour when delivered. The product itself is pretty professional kit.

Condensador ok, all kit is ok, but the superficie to enter the vapor is really small, recomend only the condesantor

The grandchildren and I have had a lot of fun with this kit.

absolument indispensable , le verre est d'une qualité riche et tous les accessouires tres bien emabalé!
