The Beaker Bong

The 10” scientific beaker bong is complete with an ice catcher and diffuser. It features the standard 14mm glass-on-glass joints, making it easily adaptable for all your needs. It comes with a 14mm dry herb bowl and a 14/18mm diffused downstem. They even throw in a package of daisies and multiple stickers as an added bonus!

 

What We Love:

This bong was by far our favourite out of the two. The shape, diffuser, and ice catch all work to make the hit smooth and cool off the smoke before it gets to your lungs, resulting in less coughing and less burn feeling in your throat. 

The bubble they’ve added between the beaker base and the ice catch makes for a great place to hold the bong while hitting or passing it, sitting perfectly in your hand. The mouthpiece is a standard bong mouthpiece that’s easy and comfortable to hit. Both bongs and the bowls they come with are made out of a sturdy, thick glass that’s sure to be durable as well as functional. 

What We Don’t:

While we really loved this bong, there were a few things that we were less than satisfied with. First off, we wish the neck was longer to both give the smoke more time to cool down, and to be able to put more ice in it in a position that's further away from your mouth.

The bowl that comes with this beaker bong is deceptively large. It looks way bigger than it actually is, so be careful to not overload your grinder. As you know, once you grind up your flower, it gets stale much faster.

 

Overall Review:

Overall, we loved this bong. It’s beyond best affordable bongs, easy to use, easy to hold and pass, and generates the smoothest rips complete with producing a nice, thick, milky hit. We love the highly-effective ice catch, but we wish the neck containing it was a little bigger. 

 

The Straight Bong

The 10” scientific tube straight bong with ice catcher and diffuser is a high-quality, sturdy pipe complete with a sturdy base. It comes with the standard 14mm glass-on-glass joints, just as the Beaker Bong did, a 14mm bowl, and a diffused downstem. You’ll also get daisy screens and stickers with this bong, just like the beaker bong.

What We Love:

While we liked the beaker bong better, there’s still a lot we loved about the straight bong. This one is also made of very sturdy, thick glass and comes with a thick base to ensure it’ll stand up properly all the time. 

This bong also comes with an ice catch, so you can make each hit as cool as possible. It comes with the standard 14mm joints and a 14mm bowl, so if you break a piece, it’s easily replaced. 

What We Don’t:

The unfortunate part about the design of this piece is there’s not a lot of space for water or ice. With the straight bong design, we missed the extra space for these H2O essentials, and there’s also not a lot of space to help aerate your hit. You also can’t put as much ice in this bong as you can the beaker bong.

Because of this design, the hits are a bit rougher. Because aeration and space for water and ice is limited, don't be surprised if this one hits your lungs a little harder. While some people like these harsher rips, it’s not our personal preference. 

 

Overall Review:

Overall, this is a very high-quality bong for an incredibly reasonable price. While we preferred the other one, it largely came down to personal preference for smoking. You truly can’t go wrong with either of these bongs!

 

Conclusion

Green Bongs Water makes excellent bongs for the stoner on a budget. Both of the best affordable bongs we tried (the beaker and the straight bong) offer a smooth hit - though the beaker was notably smoother - and thick, sturdy glass construction to ensure the best value for the lowest price. 

If you’re in the market for a quality bong that won’t break the bank, Green Bongs Water is for you.

GreenWater Bong Highlights:

• Ice catch and diffuser

GreenWater Bong Lowlights:
