Amazing Bong Shapes and Epic Styles to Consider When Buying Designer Bongs

Amazing Bong Shapes and Epic Styles to Consider When Buying Designer Bongs

Regarding designer bongs, various shapes, and styles cater to every smoker’s preferences. These devices have been around for centuries, evolving to provide better smoking experiences. Today’s market offers many options, making it somewhat overwhelming for those choosing the perfect bong.

This quick guide aims to explore the different bong shapes and styles available today, outlining the benefits and drawbacks of each to help you make an informed decision.

 

 

1. Straight-Tube Bongs

As the name suggests, straight-tube bongs feature a simple, straight-tube design that is both easy to use and clean. The water chamber and the mouthpiece are in a straight line, making it one of the most basic bong styles available. These bongs are typically made from glass or acrylic, often with a removable downstem and bowl.

Pros:

  • Simple design makes it easy to clean and maintain
  • Compact and easy to store
  • Offers smooth and direct hits

Cons:

  • Limited water capacity that may result in harsher hits
  • Lacks percolation features found in more advanced bongs

2. Beaker Bongs

Beaker bongs have a larger, cone-shaped base that resembles a scientific beaker, hence the name. This bong style provides more water capacity, allowing for better filtration and a smoother hit. This is why we used a beaker base when designing our bong. Beaker bongs are usually made from glass and, like straight tube bongs, come with a removable downstem and bowl.

Pros:

  • Greater water capacity that offers smoother hits
  • A stable base reduces the risk of tipping over
  • Can accommodate additional percolation features

Cons:

  • Larger size may make it more challenging to store
  • It may require more water and frequent cleaning

3. Round Base Bongs

Round base bongs, also known as bubble bongs or sphere bongs, feature a spherical water chamber that offers more water capacity than a straight tube bong but less than a beaker bong. The round base provides added stability, reducing the risk of your bong tipping over. Like the two above, these bongs can be made from glass or acrylic and typically come with a removable downstem and bowl.

Pros:

  • Balanced water capacity for smoother hits
  • A stable base reduces the risk of tipping over
  • Can accommodate additional percolation features

Cons:

  • Slightly more challenging to clean than straight tube bongs
  • Not as stable as beaker bongs

4. Percolator Bongs

Percolator bongs offer advanced filtration through percolators and additional chambers within the bong that help break up and cool the smoke. This process provides smoother, cooler, and less harsh hits.

There are various types of percolators, such as a tree, showerhead, honeycomb, and turbine percolators, each offering different levels of filtration and diffusion. These bongs are in various shapes, including straight tube, beaker, and round base styles.

Pros:

  • Provides the smoothest and coolest hits
  • Advanced filtration reduces the chance of harmful substances being inhaled
  • Wide range of percolator options to suit personal preferences

Cons:

  • The more complex design makes it harder to clean and maintain
  • Higher cost compared to simpler bong styles

5. Multi-Chamber Bongs

Finally, multi-chamber bongs, or recycler bongs, feature two or more chambers connected by tubes. This design allows the smoke to travel through multiple water-filled chambers, offering superior filtration and cooling. Multi-chamber bongs often include percolators for added filtration and can be found in various shapes and styles.

Pros:

  • Provides superior filtration and cooling for the smoothest hits
  • Can accommodate additional percolation features
  • Unique and visually appealing designs

Cons:

  • The complex design makes it harder to clean and maintain
  • Typically more expensive than other bong styles
