Select: Brand Review & Products

Select launched in 2015 in Oregon and became one of the more widely distributed vape brands, later joining the Curaleaf portfolio. Its focus is dependable, mainstream vape products.

The brand sits in our vapes category. Its 88 availability score reflects the deep retail footprint that comes with a large multi-state operator behind it, as tracked on our methodology page.

Select focuses on the vapes category, with disposables as the standout format. The rechargeable design addresses the usual disposable complaint of stranded oil, letting you draw the cartridge down to empty rather than discarding it half-full.

A representative product is the Select Elite Live Cartridge. The all-in-one format means no separate battery to buy, which is the brand's main convenience pitch, and it positions Select directly against pod systems like Stiiizy that require a dedicated device.

Select is stocked in Oregon, California, Arizona, Nevada, and Massachusetts. That five-state spread benefits from Curaleaf's distribution muscle.

The 88 availability score puts Select among the easier vape brands to find. Shoppers in those markets can usually grab a Select disposable next to Stiiizy pods and Rove carts.

Select's 82 consistency score reflects reliable hardware and a steady experience across its lineup. The disposables work as advertised.

The 79 quality score is mainstream rather than premium. The all-in-one format is convenient but more wasteful than refillable systems, and the per-gram price runs a touch higher than budget carts. For grab-and-go use, the trade-off is reasonable, especially when you value not carrying or charging a separate battery.

Stiiizy offers similar convenience through its pod system, while Raw Garden out-flavors Select with true live resin at a comparable price.

Rove competes harder on value. Select's differentiator is the rechargeable all-in-one disposable: no battery to buy and no stranded oil, making it the cleanest grab-and-go vape of the group.

If you want a disposable you can use up completely without buying hardware, Select is built for you. The 74 value score reflects fair, if not bargain, pricing for that convenience.

It is a weaker fit for flavor seekers, who should look to live-resin brands, and for budget hunters, who can find cheaper carts elsewhere.

Select is worth it if you want a disposable that does not strand oil and requires no separate battery. The rechargeable design is a genuine improvement over typical disposables, and the 82 consistency score reflects hardware that behaves the same from one device to the next. Being part of the Curaleaf portfolio also means the brand reaches shelves a smaller operator could not, which is reflected in the 88 availability score.

The honest caveats are mainstream flavor and a slightly higher per-gram price than budget carts. For travelers and convenience-minded users across its five markets, Select is a solid pick, and the Elite Live disposables remain the cleanest no-hardware option in this group of competitors.
