Comparing Flavours
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “While both Lost Mary and Elf Bar have an extensive range of flavours (and they keep adding more on a regular basis) and both of their ranges are fairly similar in terms of quality and flavour options. However, Elf Bar takes a slight lead in the flavour category as they have flavours that also cater to vapers who prefer a less sweet or fruity vape flavour.”
Lost Mary has a range of over 30 flavours in their BM600 disposable range. Their disposable vape flavour selection is best known for sweet fruit flavours, with their top 3 vape flavours being
- 1. Lost Mary Watermelon Ice (a flavour combination of sweet watermelon and cool menthol on the exhale)
- 2. Lost Mary Pink Lemonade (a tangy lemonade flavour with a sweet mixed berry)
- 3. Lost Mary Blueberry Sour Raspberry (a vape with a bold fruit flavour that balances sweetness with tangy notes of blueberry and raspberry)
“The main thing that the Lost Mary range is missing is some of the more classic and less sweet flavours, like tobacco flavours.
This is where the Elf Bar 600 flavour range takes points, with a range that includes a creamy tobacco flavour, but they also have less sweet or fruity options available too such as Elf Bar Spearmint."
Overall, the Elf Bar 600 range also comes in over 30 flavours and current most popular flavours in their flavour selection are
- 1. Elf Bar Strawberry Raspberry Cherry Ice (a flavour that combines classic strawberry, raspberry and cherry flavours with a wintry mint chill on the exhale)
- 2. Elf Bar Mad Blue (a flavour combination of berries, including the sweet blueberry, raspberry and blackcurrant flavours).
- 3. Elf Bar Watermelon (a vape with the sweet, juicy flavour of watermelon with each puff)
“Overall, both Lost Mary and Elf Bar have a wide range of flavours that are both similar and have quality performance with each puff, but Elf Bar has the advantage in this category with a few different flavours that branch out from the common fruit options. “
Comparing Nicotine Strength Options
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “Once again, when comparing which is better on nicotine strength, Elf Bar or Lost Mary, Elf Bar takes the lead again due to their wider range of nicotine strength options. However, both brands provide consistent nicotine strengths between flavours, and have the most popular nicotine strength (20mg) available in their entire flavour catalogue.
Lost Mary BM600 disposable vapes currently only come in one nicotine strength option, 20mg. While this is the most commonly used nicotine strength in the UK, it is always nice to have options.
Elf Bar 600s on the other hand come with three nicotine strength options: 0mg, 10mg and 20mg. It is great that you can find the same vape flavours but nicotine free or in a lower nicotine strength than the classic 20mg per device - which gives Elf Bar some extra stars in this category.”
Comparing Battery Life
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “From my experience with both the Lost Mary BM600 and the Elf Bar 600, the Lost Mary BM600 deserves a better rating than the Elf Bar 600. While both do perform well, and have the same power internal battery (360mAh), the BM600 lasted better than the Elf Bar 600.”
Comparing Puff Count
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “If you want to know which lasts longer, Elf Bar or Lost Mary, I can say that for me both the BM600 and Elf Bar 600 offered around 600 puffs (which is in line with what they advertise). However, exactly how long these products will last you personally depends on your personal vape habits.”
Comparing Device Design
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “This category will be more down to personal taste, but for me I think the Lost Mary BM600 design gives a slightly different option to the classic vape pen you get with the Elf Bar 600.
Both devices are designed with user experience in mind - removing complex menus and buttons, working with inhale activation for a smoother user experience. However, the main difference between the Elf Bar 600 and Lost Mary BM600 is the shape of the device and dimensions.
The Elf Bar 600 gives the classic vape pen design, which means it can fit in most pockets and bags, but is not necessarily the most compact design out there. The Lost Mary BM600 has a bottle flask design, which fits in the palm of your hand, which is an even better fit for most pockets and less obvious in your pocket than the Elf Bar 600.“
Comparing Durability
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “Both devices are made to weather the storms of life: however, from my experience, the Elf Bar 600 device is just a tad more durable than the BM600. The Elf Bar 600 vape pen is a bit bigger and has a bit more sturdier of a build vs the BM600 bottle flask design. However, both last the test of standard wear and tear.”
Overall: Lost Mary or Elf Bar?
Lost Mary: ⭐⭐⭐
Elf Bar: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Beth’s Verdict: “The right device for you will depend on your personal preferences on flavour and experience, but for me the Elf Bar 600 wins in the Elf Bar vs Lost Mary debate.
While both ranges have awesome features, the Elf Bar 600 is a true disposable vape classic. It combines the classic vape pen design with ease of use and a range of quality flavours.”
