SMALL BONGS

Small bongs measuring eight inches and under are pint-sized, portable water pipes that deliver notoriously flavorful hits. People gravitate to smaller bongs for a few key reasons.

Flavor 

For some stoners, a mini bong is ideal for the flavor it delivers. Because there is less air and water within the chamber to dilute the smoke, hits tend to be stronger and more flavorful than standard sized bongs.  

Portability

For others, it’s about portability and enjoying diffused hits whenever, wherever. Portable bongs are easy to transport, conceal and handle. With small water bongs you get smooth, filtered hits in a compact, lightweight package. Thus, these travel-friendly pieces are perfect for stoners on-the-go who don’t always smoke in the same place. 

Aesthetics

Many cannabis enthusiasts are drawn to small bongs from a purely aesthetic standpoint. That is to say, the pint-sized package has an allure all its own. In the age of bigger and better, mini and small is making a comeback like never before. And naturally there’s something to be said about the powerful hits mini bongs deliver too. In short, they are adorable yet pack a desirable punch. 

The whole package

All the same, cannabis connoisseurs often say that it’s a combination of everything. Small bongs offer something that standard water pipes don’t. They offer the freedom to take bold yet clean hits from your rooftop, a lookout or beachside. And above all, in an extremely cute package. 

What is the difference between a mini vs small bong?

At Stoners Rotation, we consider a small bong to measure 8 inches or under. Even smaller water pipes measuring 6 inches or less are called mini bongs. Even so, since the difference is rather small, we’ve coupled them together.

How much is a small bong?

Small water pipes tend to be significantly more affordable than larger pieces since they use less material and have fewer features. Cheap small bongs tend to cost roughly $20-50 while higher quality, more expensive pieces can run you roughly $50-100.

Do small bongs get you higher?

This has been the subject of debate for a long time and while there isn’t much research into the phenomenon, many stoners attest that small bongs get you higher. Cannabis enthusiasts noticed that hitting from a mini bong tends to be more harsh. Since they have much smaller, more condensed chambers, the smoke is more dense. In other words, larger bongs dilute the smoke because it has the chance to mix with more air and water before it reaches your lips.
