Best Small Bongs
Few things can beat the convenience and affordability of a good small bong.
Small bongs and mini bongs can be a better water pipe than a simple bubbler while remaining more portable and discreet than your average beaker bong, especially when you aren’t as open about your cannabis use. They’re perfect to bring to a friend’s house, hide away after a session, and are easy to handle for any experience level. That’s why we collected the best small bongs, and tell you why we love them.
We bet by the end of the article, you’ll find a couple you love too. Let’s get started!
How To Pick A Good Small Bong
Here are a few things you should keep in mind when looking for the best little bongs to complete your collection:
Features
Small bongs can’t fit many percs to optimize their water filtration. And, since there isn’t a lot of space for smoke to travel through, you need to make sure your bong has an effective perc or two to cool down your smoke.
While small tube bongs and cheap bongs may simply come with a straight tube for a downstem and no percs, better perc bongs can include a honeycomb, inline, or showerhead perc to filtrate and cool off the smoke. Some can also include a carb hole to help regulate the airflow to get lighter and smoother hits.
The right features will likely depend on your smoking style.
Quality and Functionality
The best bongs can drastically cool off your rips if they’re designed correctly. After all, it doesn’t matter which percolators bongs may have if the percs aren’t effective.
Some percolators, like tree percs and recyclers, can make the bong harder to clean, even when using ash catchers. And, while acrylic bongs are very affordable, their lower quality means you’ll need to replace them quite often.
Often a high-quality mini rig or bong with removable standard-sized bowls and bangers for concentrates will be a durable and versatile bet, allowing you to replace bowls and pair along with vaporizers and other accessories more easily.
Portability
If you’re looking for a good mini bong, portability is probably a priority. If you’re looking for powerful filtration, you can invest in small, high-quality percolator bongs made out of thick borosilicate glass. That way, you can always pack it along with your smoking accessories without worrying too much about your bong.
If you have a smaller budget, silicone bongs are practically indestructible, and can easily be stashed away practically anywhere.
