Best Cannabis Vapes in the NY Recreational Market

Key Takeaways

  • Big-name New York vape brands like MFNY, Jetty, RYTHM, Jaunty, STIIIZY and Ayrloom are all on our menu.
  • Pick the device first. A disposable or all-in-one needs no setup, a 510 cart needs a battery, and a pod only fits its own brand’s battery.
  • Pick the oil second. Live resin and live rosin taste like the strain, and distillate gives you more flavors at a lower price.
  • Buy only from a licensed store. Look for New York’s universal symbol on the package and the QR code in the dispensary window.
  • Every licensed New York vape is banned from containing vitamin E acetate, PEG, MCT oil or synthetic terpenes.

 

Walk up to our vape case and you’ll see dozens of brands and four or five kinds of devices. If you’re new to vaping, or it’s been years since you last bought one, it’s a lot to sort through.

Below are ten brands we carry, what each one makes, and how to choose a device and oil before you get to the counter. 

Best Weed Vape Brands in New York at a Glance

The brands below are all licensed in New York and on our menu. Each one leans toward a different device or oil, so start with what you want to use.

If you only read one thing, read this table. It lists what each brand has on our shelf right now and who it tends to suit.

Disposable Weed Vapes vs. 510 Carts vs. Pods

Disposables and all-in-ones need no setup. 510 carts screw onto a separate battery. Pods click into a battery made by the same brand.

The device decides how you’ll use the vape day to day, so it’s worth choosing before the brand. There are three main types.

Disposable / all-in-one 510 cartridge Pod system
What you buy One device with oil and battery built in A cart of oil, plus a battery once A pod of oil, plus that brand’s battery once
Setup None, take it out of the box Screw the cart onto the battery Click the pod into the battery
When it’s empty The whole device is done Swap in a new cart Swap in a new pod
Works with other brands Not needed Yes, any 510-thread battery No, only that brand’s battery
Sizes on our menu 0.5g to 2g 0.5g and 1g 0.5g and 1g
Good for First-timers and people who want simple People who already own a battery People who stick with one brand

 

All-in-one and disposable mean the same thing on most menus. Many have a charging port so you can finish the oil, but you can’t refill them.

A 510 battery lasts a long time and fits most carts, so if you vape often it’s the most flexible choice. Several brands on this list sell their own, and Jaunty’s has adjustable voltage. Our 510 cart guide and disposable vape guide go deeper on each.

Three different types of vapes.

 

The Best THC Vape Brands on Our Menu

These ten brands cover every main device and oil we carry, from New York farm brands to West Coast names that arrived in the last few years.

We picked brands people search for by name, plus a few that fill gaps in price or format. Stock changes week to week, so check the brand page for what’s in today.

Some of these labels are owned or licensed by bigger companies. Our guide to who owns New York cannabis lays out who’s behind which brand.

MFNY

MFNY built its name on live resin made from fresh-frozen plants. On our menu that means live resin 510 carts, 1g live resin all-in-ones and a live rosin cart. Its Chemdog Live Resin cart says it uses no distillate or added terpenes. Shop MFNY or read our MFNY Classics post.

Jetty Extracts

Jetty started in San Diego and came to New York in 2023 with Hepworth Farms as a partner. What we carry now is mostly its solventless live rosin all-in-ones, plus Dablicator oil syringes and a small 510 battery. If you want rosin without buying a battery, this is the easy one. Shop Jetty.

RYTHM

RYTHM’s live resin comes in 1g carts and 2g all-in-ones on our menu, and the brand sells its own 510 battery. The 2g size is one of the larger all-in-ones we carry. Shop RYTHM or see our RYTHM spotlight.

Jaunty

Jaunty is based in Hoosick Falls, New York, and it built its business on extracts. It has the widest vape range of any brand we carry, with 1.5g Palm devices, 1g All-Star all-in-ones, standard, live resin and live rosin carts, and liquid diamonds. Its Penjamin battery has adjustable voltage. Shop Jaunty or read our Jaunty spotlight.

STIIIZY

STIIIZY was founded in Los Angeles in 2017 and launched in New York in February 2025. It’s a pod system, so the pods click into a STIIIZY battery. We also carry its small 0.5g LiiiL all-in-ones and 1g all-in-ones if you’d rather skip the battery. Shop STIIIZY or see our STIIIZY spotlight.

Ayrloom

Ayrloom comes from Beak & Skiff, a family apple orchard outside Syracuse founded in 1911. Its vapes on our menu are 1g and 2g all-in-ones, alongside its ciders, drinks and gummies. Shop Ayrloom or read our Ayrloom spotlight.

New York Honey

New York Honey covers a lot of formats at the lower end of our vape prices. You’ll find 1g 510 carts, 1g and 2g all-in-ones, and Stone all-in-ones made with cured resin or live resin. Dab Darts are its prefilled concentrate devices. Shop New York Honey.

Dime Industries

Dime splits its line in two. The 2g all-in-ones are distillate in fruit-forward flavors, and the Live Reserve 1g all-in-ones are live resin. On our November menu, the 2g devices listed under 3% terpenes and the Live Reserve devices listed about 2.8% to 7.5%, so the labels make the difference easy to see. Shop Dime.

Off Hours

Off Hours sticks to a short list of 1g 510 carts, 1g all-in-ones and a 0.5g live rosin all-in-one, mostly in classic strains like Blue Dream and Green Crack. It’s one of the lower-priced brands in our vape case. Shop Off Hours or see our Off Hours spotlight.

Rove

Rove sells a reload system plus classic 510 carts. Its pods and ready-to-use devices come in live resin diamonds and solventless live rosin, and it sells its own batteries. Shop Rove.

How to Pick a Weed Vape If You’re New or Coming Back

Choose the device, then the oil, then the strain. If you’re new or coming back after years away, a 1g all-in-one in a strain you know is easiest.

A lot of our Staten Island customers last bought cannabis long before vapes were on the shelf. If that’s you, go in this order.

Start with the device. An all-in-one is the simplest. Many are draw-activated, so you just inhale with no button to press. If you know you’ll keep vaping, a 510 battery and carts cost less over time.

Then pick the oil. Live resin and live rosin keep the plant’s own terpenes and taste like the strain. Distillate is refined THC with terpenes added back, which means more flavor choices at a lower price. Our live resin vs. distillate guide explains the difference, and our live rosin vape picks cover the solventless side.

Last, pick a strain or flavor you recognize. Classic names like Sour Diesel, Blue Dream and Pineapple Express show up across several brands. Start with one small puff and give it time before taking another.

Choose by device, oil, and strain.

 

How to Spot a Licensed THC Vape in New York

Licensed New York vapes carry the state’s universal symbol and come from a store with an OCM QR code in the window. Others aren’t held to state rules.

Plenty of smoke shops and bodegas sell vapes without a license, and the packaging can look convincing.

Check the store first. New York requires every licensed dispensary to post a verification QR code in its front window that you can scan with your phone. OCM’s consumer page also lists licensed stores.

Then check the package. Every licensed product carries New York’s universal symbol, which marks it as tested and regulated. The label should also have a batch number you can match to a lab report. Our COA guide shows you how to read one.

Licensed vapes also follow state rules on what goes in the oil. Under 9 NYCRR §123.6, they can’t contain vitamin E acetate, PEG, MCT oil or synthetic terpenes, and total terpenes are capped at 10%.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best THC vape brands in New York?

Well-known names include MFNY, Jetty, RYTHM, Jaunty, STIIIZY and Ayrloom. All are licensed in New York and on our menu, along with New York Honey, Dime, Off Hours and Rove.

What is the best disposable weed vape?

It depends on the oil you like. For live rosin, try Jetty’s all-in-ones. For live resin, try MFNY or Dime Live Reserve. For distillate and more flavors, try Jaunty Palm or Ayrloom.

Are disposable weed vapes better than carts?

Disposables are easier because there’s nothing to set up. Carts cost less over time if you already own a 510 battery, and you can switch brands without buying a new device.

Do STIIIZY pods work on a regular 510 battery?

No. STIIIZY pods click into a STIIIZY battery. If you want a device that works with many brands, choose 510-thread carts and a standard 510 battery.

How can I tell if a THC vape is legal in New York?

Buy from a store with an OCM verification QR code in the window, and look for New York’s universal symbol and a batch number on the package that matches a lab report.

Which THC vapes have the fewest additives?

Licensed New York vapes can’t contain vitamin E acetate, PEG, MCT oil or synthetic terpenes. Live resin and live rosin carts that say no added terpenes keep the ingredient list shortest.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring cannabis from New Jersey into New York?

No. Both states have legal markets, but transporting cannabis across state lines is a federal offense even between two legal states. Buy from a licensed New York dispensary instead of carrying product over a border.

Can my employer fire me for using cannabis off duty?

Most New York employees are protected under Section 201-D. Exceptions apply to safety-sensitive roles, federally regulated transportation jobs, and federal positions, so check your specific employer’s policy if you’re unsure.

Is it legal to gift cannabis to another adult in New York?

Yes. Adults 21 and up can gift up to 3 ounces of cannabis to other adults 21 and up without any compensation changing hands. Selling without a license remains illegal regardless of amount.

Do I need a medical card to buy cannabis in New York?

No. That’s one of the most common misconceptions we hear at the counter. Anyone 21 or older with a valid government ID can shop at a licensed adult-use dispensary, no medical card required.

Can I grow cannabis at home in New York?

Yes, up to 6 plants per household (3 mature, 3 immature) for personal use, kept secure and out of public view. Specific rules can vary slightly by county, so confirm details on the OCM site.

Can police search me just because they smell cannabis?

The smell of cannabis alone is no longer probable cause for a search in New York after MRTA. Other independent, reasonable suspicion can still lead to a search, so this isn’t blanket protection.

Where can I buy legal cannabis on Staten Island?

NugHub NY is a licensed dispensary and delivery service based on Staten Island, holding one of the state’s early Social Equity licenses. Visit our Staten Island dispensary page for hours, directions, and same-day delivery details.
