Beaker Bongs
Beaker Bongs are the most common bong style commonly seen in local smoke shops and in movies and TV shows. A beaker bong is a water pipe used for smoking dry herbs that features a beaker-shaped base to hold the water. These bongs can come in a wide variety of sizes and can have a list of different features; however, they all boast a beaker base.
Bongs can have a variety of different shapes and bases. The beaker base typically provides the largest base when compared to straight tube bongs, however, bubble bongs also provide a large water capacity base. Bongs with larger bases tend to be more stable and prevent accidental breakage better. They also provide more surface area so can sometimes be more decorative or artistic.
While glass beaker bongs are probably the most common, these bongs can also be made from acrylic, silicone and more. These different materials provide for unique smoking experiences and have unique advantages such as acrylic and silicone being less accident-prone.
