Any one know what is the delay with these? I've had one on preorder since September and the due date keeps sliding further away, last update I asked for was told end of October.

In one word..... SMOK.
They seem to do this with a lot of products constantly pushing back release dates.

Unfortunately Vape Spirit is Pre-Order , EVS doesn't have any stock and Ecigwarehouse I'm not to sure of to be honest , as I can't find a physical address or phone number on their site at all and I think that breaks distance selling rules for a UK company , but I don't know ???? Andy

I got mine a couple of days ago and I really like it.
LOOKS AND FEEL
I love the contrast between the Zebra wood and the stainless steel buttons , a really smart choice there.The colour of the wood in my mind is really nice , it has a cherry wood-like colouring to it , but I do realise that it won't be everyone's choice of colour.The screen is small , but quite clear for a small screen. The only downside in the looks department is the engraving , that being , there is to much of it.On one side you have "Treebox Mini" near the top and then near the bottom it says "zebrawood TC75" and on the other side it has the SMOK logo.Personally I would have preferred just the word "Treebox" on one side , again , that's just MY taste , others may like it.
The wood has been finished really nicely to the touch.Are there little blemishes here and there , yes there are , but you have to remember that this mod is really rather cheap and wood has a mind of it's own sometimes.
MENU
The menu system is really nice.You press the fire button 3 times to enter the menu , then from there , there are 9 menus you can go into , these are :- 1) Wattage or temp control 2) TC metal choice and single or dual coil.First you have a choice of SS,Ni or Ti , then you choose single or dual coil. 3) Boost and Buck ( I think ??? ) , options of Soft , Norm or Hard 4) Screen timeout in seconds that can be adjusted via the up and down buttons from 5 to 240 seconds 5) Puff Counter and seconds used , options here is to reset or not,if you want this , at least it doesn't get in the way of the main screen. 6) Screen orientation , either left or right 7) Temperature Coefficient for the material selected in the TC choice and you can change that. 8) Initial Resistance adjustment, that can be adjusted up and down.Maybe allowing for using a more accurate ohm reader. 9) Power On/Off
All these adjustments look as though they cover everything you could need , certainly for me anyway.I haven't even done a SS coil in wattage mode yet , let alone anything with TC.
FEATURES
It goes from 1W to 75W in power mode in 0.1W increments. 100 Degrees C to 315 Degrees C and 200 Degrees F to 600 Degrees F in 5 degree increments in C mode and 10 degree increments in F mode. Spring loaded 510 connection and what looks to be SS 510 threads Replaceable 18650 via magnet fixed door (mine doesn't rattle , others might due to the mod being wooden) Lockable wattage and separate lockable fire button.
I really enjoy using this because it because of the looks and usability.
This mod isn't perfect , BUT it should be a BIG kick up the behind to other major and minor mod makers that a nice wooden box mod with great usability can be made at a very affordable price.
I know I have missed a lot of stuff out , but hopefully enough of a look into it for people to take a second look at it if they dismissed the first time.
Oh , last but certainly not least It cost me £42.07 delivered , that alone was a head turner for me.
Andy
