Benefits of large bongs: smoke glass big bongs for the optimum high. Learn why size matters in the art of getting high.
Advantages of using a large bong over a small bong
Both small and large bongs offer unique benefits. Still, most smoking enthusiasts eventually like to have at least one large or extra-large water pipe in their collection. Not only do these show-stopping pieces make a real crowd-pleaser, but bigger bongs are a great way to ramp up the smoking experience. Large bongs offer:
• A greater water capacity results in smoother hits.
• The option to smoke the entire bowl in a single hit.
• The ability to customise your device to suit your style.
Customisation is a key reason many cannabis-smoking connoisseurs opt for a larger bong. You can take your session to the next level with various features and accessories.
Let’s look at some favourite custom components:
Percolators - The filtration provided by percolators results in a smoother hit. Remember, you’re consuming large rips, so smoother smoke makes for a much more comfortable experience. (Popular types include honeycomb perc, tree percolator, showerhead perc and matrix perc).
Ice Catchers - An ice-catcher makes for a more comfortable hit by cooling the smoke before it hits your throat.
Ash Catcher - This device prevents ash from getting into your bong, ensuring a smoother, more satisfying hit.
Built-in downstem - An airtight built-in downstem is super easy to use and requires no setup. Just pack the bowl and light it up.
Removable downstems - Enjoy easy cleaning with a removable/replaceable downstem.
The best bongs for getting high
Every smoking enthusiast will eventually want to own a tall premium bong made from borosilicate glass. With cool, ornamental designs and plenty of awesome features, large bongs make the perfect party piece. The benefit of a large bong over joints or blunts is the greater hits, and the advantage of bongs over vaporisers is combustion and the instant release of cannabinoids like THC.
Large bongs: cost vs value
Master your smoking sessions with a premium device that will get you and your stoner mates flying high. Enjoy big, smooth rips filtered through ample bong water. Large glass bongs generally offer a superior smoking experience to an acrylic bong or silicone bong and will last you much longer. Although the upfront cost may be a little higher, a good-quality glass bong (that is well taken care of) will remain by your side for a lifetime.

Benefits of buying a glass bong or beaker bong
The significant benefit of glass beaker bongs is that they have plenty of room for percolators. If your main game is tasty and smooth hits, a wide beaker bong is a perfect device to filter smoke. Some of the reasons we love a beaker bong include the following:
• The large base accommodates all kinds of percolators.
• Heavy-based bongs offer generous hits.
• Better stability equates to fewer spills and breakage.
• More water in the chamber gives you a smoother, cooler hit.
• Timeless ornamental bong designs that smoking enthusiasts appreciate.
At My Bong Shop, our water pipes are crafted from borosilicate glass which is much more resistant to thermal-shock breakage than regular glass. Borosilicate glass is smooth, easy to clean and non-porous for better hygiene.
Grab a mini bong for on-the-go
Baby bongs also carry several benefits that many smokers will appreciate. Most importantly, they offer portability. You can slide them easily into your bag or purse for a discreet, go-to option when you’re on the move. Small bongs are super affordable, lightweight, and won’t leave you in tears if they get lost or broken during transit. Although ideal for beginners, most seasoned smokers are surprised by just how punchy they are. You still get good water filtration and can enjoy nice big hits.
Bong size matters
The size will probably be your most significant consideration when choosing a new bong. That said, most regular smokers like to dabble in different sizes, depending on the circumstances. Small, uncomplicated portable bongs are ideal for beginners or travel situations. Medium-sized bongs offer the best of both worlds - they are easily hand-held and offer significant, satisfying rips. Experienced smokers prefer taller, bigger bongs because they deliver a powerful punch and can accommodate all your favourite smoking accessories for the smoothest possible hit.
How to use a bong: step-by-step
For most stoners, bongs are the most enjoyable way to consume cannabis. Learning to use them is easy, and we promise you’ll never look back. Follow these easy steps, and you’ll be a pro in no time.
1. Prep your bong
Insert both the downstem and the clean bowl. Pour water into the water chamber through the mouthpiece (enough that the bottom of the downstem is fully submerged). Add any accessories you have chosen to use.
2. Grind your plant matter
Use a purpose-built grinder for uniform results. Place your weed into the grinding chamber and rotate back and forth until ground.
3. Pack the bowl
Place a pinch of weed into the bowl. Pack it down lightly (If it’s too tight, you might struggle to suck it through). Slide your bowl into the downstem, ready for use.
4. Light up
With your mouth on the mouthpiece, start drawing smoke into the chamber in a smooth, steady motion. Smoke will travel through the downstem, bubble through the water and rise into the chamber.
5. Clear the chamber
Clear the chamber, removing the bowl from the downstem for airflow. Be sure to continue pulling in with your lungs until the smoke has cleared.
6. Clean your device
Keep your bong in prime condition by cleaning it after every smoke. In most cases, your glass bong can be easily cleaned using hot water and detergent.
If you’re just starting out on your smoking journey, it’s wise to take it easy until you get the hang of it. Start with small tokes and gradually increase as you get to know your tolerance levels. Large tokes can hit you unexpectedly if you’re not accustomed to smoking weed through a bong.
