Plain_Sight_Doc 51 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 well i like bongs that have at least 2 chambers and a peculator. :] just my preference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBud 79 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 to start,without a doubt glass!inert medium that wont add anything to your chosen smoke.acrylic is potentially nasty when heated,and the downpipes supplied can sometimes also be questionable for your health material wise(alu)With regard to multi chamber and perc's,great if done properly,but perc knock offs can sometimes be difficult to pull and multi chamber percs are a right bithc to clean.unfortunately i am in SA,so the glass market is different,but black leaf are decent for a good price locally,ROOR...are just so damned expensive.if going large bong,get thick glass(4mm+),thin glass is false economy,they break sooner.as a first pipe,why not try a bubbler,super thick glass,compact design and relatively cheap compared,much harder to break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabi 62 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 glass for sureEHLE bongs, are the best value for money, for some quality!!if not chinesse glass bongs for nearly nothing in any parafernalia shop IMHO, better spend a bit more and buy somethimg a bit better from the beggining.

Dust 6,321 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I would say glass, and further than glass i would say good glass If it's good silicate then its even better i believe as it resist even better to temps, and quartz is the best for the people i dont like too much personally and im not even sure they make full quartz bongs Have a good smoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leyus 42 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 and vaporization is next step to taste and quality from glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
