WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING A BONG

Want to buy a bong and wonder which one is best for you? Maybe you've already looked around and really don't know what to choose. There are so many shapes, sizes, and materials. Do you want to switch from smoking joints or using a vaporizer to a bong? We make it easy for you: below you will find an explanation of exactly what you should pay attention to when buying a bong.

Tips that help when buying a bong

In a bong you can smoke weed, hashish or other mind-altering substances. The advantage is that you do not need tobacco for this. When you first want to buy a bong, you will find that there is a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and materials.

How should you choose?

First of all, it is useful to consider the following questions:

• What do you want to smoke: herbs or concentrates?
• Where do you want to use the bong?
• Are you going to use it every day or only occasionally?

If you know the answers to these questions, you can start looking for the right bong for you. When choosing, you can take the following points into account: the size, the material used, the price and the required maintenance.

The size of the bong

If you are going to buy a bong, you might ask yourself: how important is the size? This is important when you consider where you want to use the bong, but it also affects the smoking experience. A small bong has a smaller chamber, so the smoke can be a bit sharper and warmer. This is different with a larger bong, so the smoke is cooled better, and you can inhale it more deeply.

In addition, a smaller bong is of course also a bit more discreet and more convenient to take with you. If you go to friend's or a party, you can just take a small bong with you. It is less noticeable when you smoke. A larger bong is really only suitable for use at home. But you can buy one that you like and that will have a place of honor in your living room. If you are going to buy your first bong, we recommend an average height of 25 to 35 cm.

Buy bong: material

The most commonly used materials for bongs are plastic, glass, ceramic, silicone, and metal. This material also brings advantages. The bongs are easy to clean, and the material is flexible and versatile in use. In addition, they provide an optimal smoking experience.

However, glass and ceramic bongs are of course fragile and that prevents some people from purchasing such a bong. You could of course also go for a bong made of scientific glass, or borosilicate glass. This is a lot stronger than normal glass and breaks less quickly. Glass and ceramic bongs provide the purest smoking experience.

The advantage of silicone is that it is light, and that makes it easier to take the bong with you. It is also durable and can take a beating. If you go for a metal bong, it is very robust and durable. A metal bong can affect the taste of what you smoke.

Plastic or acrylic is versatile, and these bongs often come in all sorts of interesting colors and shapes. They are light and do not break easily. In addition, they are also very affordable. A plastic bong could therefore be a good choice for a first bong. However, keep in mind that the taste is not as good compared to a glass or ceramic bong.

To make the choice for the ideal bong for you, you should therefore take into account where you want to use it (at home or elsewhere) and whether your bong is easy to move. That depends on the material used.

The price

Bongs come in all kinds of different prices. You can make it as expensive as you want. Your first bong does not have to be very expensive, there are also good quality bongs for a reasonable price. Beginners often opt for an acrylic bong, because they are the cheapest. But this may not be the right choice, because, as you could read earlier, the taste often leaves something to be desired. You may then think that using a bong is not for you.

To make the right choice, it is good to determine a budget in advance. Are you going to 25, 50 or maybe 100 euros? A glass bong does not cost that much more than acrylic. Decide how much money you want to spend and then start looking for that nice bong for you.

How do you maintain your bong?

Of course, you want to be able to enjoy your bong without any worries. A little maintenance is sometimes necessary and ensures that your bong lasts longer. Glass bongs are easy to maintain, ceramics and metals need a little more care. Sometimes you will have to replace a part. If you go for silicone, you can even clean it in the dishwasher.

Maintaining a bong doesn't take that much time. You can clean it with cotton swabs and alcohol wipes, with which you can quickly and easily remove dirt. There are also accessories you can buy to make cleaning easier. By keeping your bong clean, you assure yourself of a pure smoking experience.

By paying attention to these points, you will be able to buy the ideal bong. Look around the 24High webshop for a large selection of bongs in different prices.
