What makes a bong good?

[LearningToHigh]

Im headed to the smoke shop to buy a pipe and a bong. I never smoke out of bongs because there not the easiest to carry around and i dont smoke at home lol.

So i really know nothing about them. What should i be looking for and how much should i be spending?



And also, for cleaning your pipes/bongs what should you do? And how often?


Thanks in advance!

I look for something that is easy to clean. The bottom has to be able to come off and the inside stem needs to remove easily.

The one I have now has a little ball in the end of the stem so you don't get splash back hits. It works too.

Once I take all that into consideration, next comes price and color.

I prefer the slider stem to the rush hole.

So should i get a slider or rush hole? Rush hole is just like a carb on a regular pipe right?

rush hole is just a carb. It get a slide, Slide tends to clear faster for me and I dont like having to hold a little hole while I hit.

a bong, it's a regular acrylic bong. Made by Graphix. I like a bong that comes apart to clean.

I don't like hookas, they look cool, but I'm not a fan of stale smoke.
