If you do not currently smoke and are not trying to quit, there is no health rationale for starting to use an IGET disposable vape. Vaping adds respiratory exposure and, depending on the product contents, can also create dependence. It should not be treated as a harmless recreational upgrade or wellness product.
Vaping is not simply vapour
A vape heats a substance to create an aerosol that is inhaled. The aerosol can contain multiple compounds, and the exact exposure varies between products. The absence of tobac smoke does not make the aerosol risk-free.
“I only vape occasionally” is still exposure
Occasional use may involve less total exposure than frequent use, but that does not establish a safe threshold. Behaviour can also change over time, particularly where a product contains nicotine. Someone who is not using vaping as part of a smoking-cessation plan should consider whether there is any benefit that justifies adding that exposure.
Australian health guidance is aimed at quitting, not recruitment of new users
The Australian Government’s vaping and quitting guidance places therapeutic vaping within a smoking-cessation and nicotine-dependence context. It does not recommend vaping as a lifestyle product for people who do not smoke.
Current legal access is also restricted
Under current Australian vaping laws, lawful vaping supply is restricted to pharmacy settings for therapeutic purposes and subject to access conditions. Ordinary online availability should not be assumed to establish legal or medical suitability.
If you already vape but do not smoke
If you want to reduce or stop vaping, a pharmacist, GP or other health professional can help with dependence and withdrawal concerns. If you develop persistent respiratory symptoms or other health problems, seek medical advice rather than trying to diagnose the issue from product reviews.
Bottom line
For a person who does not smoke and is not trying to quit, starting an IGET disposable vape adds avoidable exposure without a health benefit. Product design, taste or popularity does not change that basic point.
