The best bongs of 2025: Reviews and recommended products

Honest has done to traditional bongs what grunge music did to hair metal—they’ve stripped it all the way down, tightened it up, and made something truly revolutionary that will be inspiring imitators for decades yet.

Recommended product

The Capsule water pipe is an elegantly designed, precision-engineered piece of smoking hardware that wouldn’t be out of place proudly standing next to the triumphs of design authored by the tech industry or the art world, while being durable, convenient, and portable enough to go galavanting with you wherever your heart roams.

The Capsule packs up into itself for easy storage and travel, collapsing down into just a 3.25” wide, 6” tall chamber that can be easily stashed in a travel bag. This modularity also makes the Capsule an absolute breeze to clean, with no tight curves, bends, or crevices to hold onto unsightly resin.

The lid is magnetic to hold a standard lighter tight when not in use, and there’s even an ash-clearing poker concealed in the side. It’s a truly modern, forward-thinking bong that holds up to daily use and looks good doing it, all for a reasonable price. In short, the Honest capsule is the definitive choice for the cannabis lover on the go, from the jet-set to the cross-country backpacker.

If you’re even vaguely plugged into cannabis culture, then you’ve been privy to the rise of the Stündenglass. This fusion between the best parts of a gravity bong and a hookah has been appearing in the hands of artists and influencers all over the world of weed.

Recommended product

The Stündenglass is, bar none, the classiest gravity bong we’ve laid eyes on. The elegant look, precision machining, and silky smooth turn all make for an aesthetic experience that piques the interest even before the smoking starts. The Stündenglass is a virtually unmatched way to share your bud during a group sesh—the large glass globes contain enough smoke for everyone, and the hits will be gentle enough for the lightweights, thanks to the percolator filtration.

When the party is over, the Stündenglass is quick and easy to clean so that you can get ready for the next session.

Stündenglass also sells a slew of accessories and ad-ons, including unique mouthpieces, globes, and even upstems to make your Stündenglass as distinctive as you are.

Empire Glassworks proudly carries on the tradition of crowd-pleasing bongs that put smiles on people’s faces before the smoking even starts. 

Recommended product

While our team has a particular fondness for their Forest Beaker (I mean, come on, look at the owls!), Empire has an absurd abundance of different options on its storefront. Our team of Pacific Northwesterners who love to get out in nature and commune with the vast woodlands (read: hippies) find this bong helps us get in the spirit, but Empire Glassworks has bongs themed around everything from the bottom of the ocean to the outer regions of the galaxy, and everything in between.

Empire produces themed bongs that still hold up to repeated use and won’t let you down when you bring them out to a party.

In a field where quality can be an open question, Empire distinguishes themselves by specializing in glass that is reliable, functional, and fun. No matter what you’re into, go with Empire and get the bong that’s right up your alley.

Here is a name that’s been producing beautiful and intricate pieces since 2002. Plus, did you catch the recent post on IG where Justin Bieber showed off his Illadelph?

Recommended product

Take things to a pop-star level of luxury with this golden piece that has all the colors of a ‘70s van with a sunset painted on the side. Illadelph went all out with a custom Collins perc that appears suspended in midair inside the clear glass beaker. The full-size coil, filled with glycerine instead of water, clips onto the base using specially developed, heavy-duty magnetic clips, and can chill in your fridge or freezer before use.

WEED’D exists at the crossroads of smoking devices and Italian design.

Recommended product

A bong for the art-loving, gallery-hopping, sophisticated urbanite. Designed in Milan and hand-made in Venice, this glazed ceramic smokewear is so hip, last year WEED’D unveiled a collection at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The brand sees smoking weed as a chance to slow down and appreciate life‘s quality moments, so why not have a piece that equally celebrates human ingenuity with clean lines and dynamic colors. This is definitely a bong that none of your friends have seen before.

Recommended product

When guests come over and ask for a bong rip, it’s kinda fun to give them the varsity bong and watch them try to take the tiger by the tail. At just shy of two feet, and sporting a double percolator on top and a six-hole crown perc below, this will deliver a smooth but devastating hit. We were super bummed when we heard that German giant ROOR was no longer in the game. Thankfully, their US shop is open and continuing the legacy. One of our favorite spots, The Cave Smokeshop, has a few different colors and options on their 18-21” double-perc models.

Recommended product

A good travel bong is essential if you’re going to ensure there’s weed smoking at whatever party you end up at, and whenever we’re going to be around people who might spill or knock things over, we like to bring an unbreakable option to share with the party. Inexpensive and easy to equip with a fancy bowl from home if you want, bringing one of these alleviates the stress of strangers handling something that needs a pelican case to come with you.

Fun fact: 4/20 2024 is a palindrome, man! That means it works forward and backwards—just like a grinder. Woah.

Anyhoo, you can’t 4/20 without the right gear. And every year presents a kaleidoscopic array of papers, metal grinders, glass pipes, and fuzzy cloth stuff. Scan along for something dope that you can take a shining too.

Affordable picks:

Elements King Size Slim Ultra-Thin

Don’t play the envy game: All you need is a $3 pack of Elements, a cheap grinder, and some weed to have fun on 4/20. We like the Elements King Size Slim Ultra Thin with the Artesano Magnetic enclosure. The roll-feel in our hands is just right and the rice paper burns very innocuously.

‘The Cali’ 3-Gram Cone from Vibes

April 20 is all about THC maximalism and that includes huge “doinks”—or very large marijuana joints. Few have the skill to roll up 3 grams of flower like a pro. But anyone can pack a Vibes 3-gram “cone” dubbed The Cali. Legal weed means cheaper weed and bigger joints. It’s that simple. 

Santa Cruz Shredder – Hemp Grinder – 2-piece Lime Green

Save your money and tears on 4/20—roll out with the lightweight hemp grinder from Santa Cruz Shredder. It’s just $12.95, more eco-conscious and lime freaking green so no one can confuse it with theirs. Plus, if you do lose it, you’re out just $13 dollars. Upgrade to steel in Matte Pink for $36.50, or the skater collab 4-piece for $79.95.

”Weed: Smoke It, Eat It, Grow It, Love It” by Ellen Holland

Friend of Leafly and plants, High Times editor in chief Ellen Holland is back with updates to her superb book “Weed”, coming out -refreshed for 4/20. Everything just got prettier and cooler. Just $14.99.

Cookies Bite Dry Pipe

For just $44 you too can join the Cookies boys and smoke around town with a portable, stylish, single-hole bowled glass pipe in the iconic Cookies font, color and style.

Steve’s Dank Pipes

Steve’s Dank Pipes fit right in on Hippie Hill in San Francisco. The wood exterior says hippie, while the glass bowl makes it a connoisseur. Each piece is sanded, finished and waxed for a smooth feel in the hand. Just $55, weed not included.

Marley Natural Beaker in Smoke w/ Gold

Get a solid beaker bong for $160 from Marley Natural. Thick base, pull-out bowl, 8-slit percolator downstem, ice disk, and standing about 1 foot tall.

Puffco Proxy Ripple

First off, we check in with the ringleaders of the Dab-Mania 2024—Puffco. New for 4/20, the Ripple bubbler attachment for their best-in-class hash vape the Puffco Proxy. What the what? The Ripple is $100 and comes in Sea or Sage color. You use it with the Puffco Proxy Base electronic hash oven. Ask your nephew to set you up. That’s what the next generation is for.

Also fresh from Puffco for 4/20: The Peak Pro Limited Edition Flourish ($420), Proxy Flourish ($299), Flourish Hot Knife ($50), Proxy Wizard Flourish $100.

Old-school alternative

The Terplock Dry Rigs from Miyagi—works like an old-school hash pipe, but looks sick. ($300)

Softglass Andy Roth bong

Eschew our overdesigned times with this sleek, minimal, and effective $70 bong from Softglass. Andy Roth Glass channels a love of architecture into this form-meets-function piece of glass art. Andy Roth’s premium stuff goes for multiple thousands of dollars and could fit into Dune 2.

Tandem Rig from Soft Glass

Get going on your dab journey for just $109 from Soft Glass with their Tandem Rig. You get everything you need to dab aside from the hash and torch.

Flower Mill Next-Gen Premium 2.0

The popular grinder-alternative has gone Next-Gen Premium 2.0 with a ton of upgrades. Flower Mill has increased the size and weight on all the units, as well as given them a smoother action to reduce friction points between halves. There’s an aluminum and stainless steel model for both the 2” and 2.5” sizes, and each of them can switch between five different milling plates ranging from extra-coarse to extra-fine. This is my favorite device for weed prep, but the big one is heavy and the small one no longer sticks to your fridge door.

Bohemian Chemist Proto-pipe Collector’s Kit

Pay homage to the times you had to genuinely sneak a toke with this refined version of the proto-pipe, by The Bohemian Chemist. Proto-pipes first dropped in the ‘70s. It’s beautiful and stylish with roots. The buy link comes out any day now.

Magnetic Bag Company 

We’re still working on dialing in the amenities at weed events. Until we get more tables and chairs, stoner will make do with a bag this new magnetic shoulder bag. The Magnetic Bag Company is patent pending and affixes itself to metal. So The Terminator could wear this as a hip pack with no straps. Crazy, right? It’s $89 and can hold your water and pipe and stuff. That’s good because the ground is dirty, and you don’t want your nice stuff on it. 

Mossy Giant “History of Cannabis” Print

For lovers of Hieronymus Bosch, the artist Mossy Giant has this sick ‘The Grand History of Cannabis: The Dutch’ print for a pretty 125 English pounds—which works out to at least $1 per minute of tripping out on all the heady details. It’s 44 inches wide by 26 inches tall, and made in collaboration with Spanish social-club La Creme Gracia. “The artwork depicts a short but turbulent time in Netherlands – from about the 60s until the late 2000s the Netherlands was the epicenter of what was cannabis globally during that time.” Limited to 88 stamped and numbered by the artist. 

Even more art: A $30 zine or $50 poster from the first cannabis mylar art exhibition, “Get to the Bag” in San Francisco.

Aeris from Focus V

Alternatively, the Aeris from Focus V portable dab rig offers similar experience for $220. It’s a dabber in your pocket and people love them. The whole thing pairs with your mobile device to dial in those big hashy clouds.

Splurges

Mothership Rainbow Encalmo Chillum—This $545 chillum, or hand-pipe, might be as close to a Mothership glass piece as many of us mere mortals get. Maybe you got an inheritance, or a raise. Just be careful when passing this hand-pipe over concrete.

Stundenglass Modul Dok—You put the Studenglass Modul into the Dok for hash or flower vaping at a table or desk at a cost of $449.

The Salt GlassCreature cup from The Cave—$1,500.

Leisure – Worked Pillar Recycler – Yellow Orange Elvis w/ Fire & Ice Retti. $2,000.
