Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality
A rather nice product as youde knows how to make, for my part, I have an udt v10 a small meca mod in 18350 which convinced me at the time that we can look good and be efficient without breaking the bank. The udt v17 confirms my opinion on the brand. This mod offers adjustable silver plated connections, a brass tube with a sober and discreet decor. The threads are more than correct. The hybrid dreepper blends perfectly with the mod. The only point that does not completely seduce me is the look of the top cap which seems a little rough compared to the general appearance.
But at that price, let's not be too difficult.

Reviewer's comments on functional features
This meca mod is very simple, no significant innovations. Thanks to the adjustable pin your atomizers will be flush and your batteries well wedged. The switch located on the bottom cap is a bit rigid but the spring will soften over time. The locking system is very efficient, and since it consists of a large ring you should avoid locking it in one position and even big paws will be comfortable. In short, a simple but well designed product.

Packaging that has progressed at youde. Indeed many youde products were delivered in very basic boxes and can resist, but that was before. The packaging youde uses today is much nicer and stronger.

The mood ticket of the reviewer
Yes youde is a brand comparable to a dacia de la vape. Indeed you will not show off with your mod even if it is quite pretty, but its simplicity, robustness and efficiency will bring you everything a vaper expects from a meca mod of this level of the range.
No innovation, a simple look, good build quality and an unbeatable price. Yes the price is very low because I remind you that the setup is complete you have a meca mod plus a hybrid dreeper, silver plated connections, so if we go around the owner it's great value for money.
The only downside swicht is a little stiff and the top cap a bit rude but nothing outrageous.
So I will say that thanks to youde you can vape well and inexpensively without having to use a clone. If its values are important to you, you have the ideal product here. So I will conclude by saying “youde… shockingly accessible”.
