The cannabis industry is beginning to be recognized as one of the most innovative industries in the world. However, smoking devices like pipes and bongs seem to be aesthetically (and functionally) stuck in the ’70s. Recognizing the need for more approachable glassware, the team at Session Goods decided it was time for the classic bong to get the upgrade it deserves. The Designer Bong from Session Goods offers smokers the perfect balance of old-school culture and high-class modern design. Not to mention, this unique device is discreet enough to be displayed and is stunning enough to second as a flower vase when not in use.
The team at RMR has reviewed the Designer Bong by Session Goods and honestly, we’re pleasantly surprised! This premium piece is designed with quality craftsmanship and offers unparalleled durability when compared to other glassware on the market. To top it all off, this luxurious bong looks amazing and rips like a dream- offering some of the smoothest hits, and most enjoyable sessions we’ve ever experienced.
Introducing The Designer Bong By Session Goods
During a stoney conversation in 2017, a group of friends pondered why the bong design remained stagnant in comparison to other advancements in the industry. They realized that cannabis culture, cultivation, processing, ingredients, and branding had all improved over the years, but devices like the bong remained classically outdated. The group decided to embrace the ever-evolving energy of the cannabis industry and challenged themselves to make glass accessories that ripped like classic pieces but offered consumers a more sophisticated vibe.
With that, Session Goods (referred to as Session for short) was born. The founders approached designing their bong with simplicity and functionality in mind. Their goal is to create products that spark joy, support relaxation, and simply exist to amplify and enhance our experience with cannabis, one hit at a time. The team at Session has created more than a well-designed bong. They have sparked a lifestyle movement and reignited the fire of creativity (and competitiveness) in the glassware market. Session Goods believes that indulging in cannabis should be celebrated—not stigmatized. The Designer Water Bong from Session Goods provides a truly unique smoking experience for cannabis enthusiasts of all levels who simply want to enjoy their green in all its glory.
Premium Packaging
The pristine packaging of the Designer Water Bong comes with everything you need to have the perfect smoke sesh. The package itself is beautiful, simple, and informative. Opening the box reveals the elegantly designed bong and a set of extra accessories in case something breaks. This device comes out of the package pretty much ready to use. All you have to do is add water (fill to the ‘Session’ logo line about the silicone base), remove the protective wrap from the glass parts, and double-check that the downstem is pressed all the way down. Then you’re ready to load the bowl and take your first tantalizing hit.
As a bonus, this bong comes with two bowls. A large (party) bowl and a smaller one for personal use. Every bowl was specially designed with funnel-like features to stop weed from easily getting stuck, and having options allows you to tailor the device to better fit your desired experience. This bong has a modular design that allows every part to be replaced separately, even the body, so if something breaks you can avoid having to purchase an entirely new rig. If you do somehow manage to break (or lose) a piece, they generously include an extra grommet and downstem in the package as well.
Sleek & Elegant Design
The Session Water Bong is beautiful, functional, and unapologetically simple. Making it the perfect piece for any stoner, seasoned or not. From the tapered body and angled mouthpiece, and the way this device feels in your hands, to the rich sound it makes when you set it down, this bong was methodically designed to flow seamlessly into your rotation. It won’t surprise us if this device quickly becomes your daily driver. Session Goods understands that the devil is in the details, and it’s clear they took a mindful approach when designing these devices.
The body, bowl, and downstem are all made of thick premium borosilicate glass and each piece is paired with silicone accessories, offered in various colorways, that compliment your personal style while protecting your investment. Their use of borosilicate (boro) glass automatically sets the Session Water Bong apart from others on the market. Boro glass is more resistant to thermal shock, meaning it shouldn’t crack under extreme temp changes or shatter on impact as easily as regular glass pieces.
In addition to the quality glass components of this bong, Session’s silicone accessories were designed to offer an added layer of protection and functionality. The silicone footer sits right under the Session logo on the body of the bong and indicates the recommended water line. It also acts as a buffer to conceal your gross bong water from view.
From the unique ergonomics that make this device easy to grip and pass to the multipurpose silicone accessories, this bong features a plethora of intriguing design points. Did we mention the bowl has a silicone grip as well? This added tool makes it easier to pull the bowl and acts as an additional safety barrier to help you avoid getting burnt.
Luxury Smoking Experience
This device combines function and aesthetics like no other. The modern and classy design blends the best features of tubes and beaker bongs into one seamless and simple product. While it may look understated, we think Session Goods succeeded in combining the time-honored design aspects of a traditional bong with a modern spin that consistently delivers rip after rip. The only caveat, make sure to push in the downstem all the way in when you assemble the bong, it takes two seconds and makes all the difference.
From the moment this package arrived Session Goods made us feel special, but hitting this bong was an experience in itself. As we were lounging on the couch, we noticed how the tilted mouthpiece helped the smoke to flow comfortably into our lungs. Feeling this bong in action brought a newfound appreciation for its uniquely tapered body, not only does it provide the elite aesthetic appeal of this device, it also funnels smoke upwards for a super smooth, effortlessly clean draw. Watching this device fill up with smoke is a stunningly serene experience, like watching a lava lamp. Additionally, the body of the Session Water Bong is larger than others its size. This allows you to get perfectly robust hits off every bowl.
As you light your flower, the smoke dances to the center of the chamber. The elite and intentional design truly stand out against other bongs on the market. The Session Bong has a noticeable weight that feels good in your hands, and a grip space that nicely fits your fingers (regardless of their size). We were able to pull hefty hits off this bong with minimal coughing and no lingering throat burn. After some discussion, we credited this pleasant experience to the design of the device itself. Don’t let the simplicity fool you, this bong rips!
Easy Cleanup
Perhaps the most impressive feature of this bong is how easy it is to clean. If you’re like us, you probably hate cleaning your devices. Unlike most bongs, which typically consist of a narrow tube and bulb, the style of this device makes it super easy to clean. The minimalist design of this device leaves it intentionally void of nooks and crannies that can harbor pesky resin. Meaning there really is no reason to sit there scrubbing for hours.
To make cleaning even easier, Session Goods provides cleaning caps (that are 1000% worth the investment!). These silicone caps fit securely onto the mouthpiece and stem to allow for easy cleaning between sessions. Simply pour in the cleaning solution of your choice, put on the caps, shake, pour, rinse and repeat. Your bong will be back to its prime condition in no time.
The Designer Bong From Session Goods Hits Hard
When we review bongs and other devices we like to consider the entire vibe. How does the device compliment the cannabis? How does it amplify the overall experience? While we aren’t necessarily shocked, Session Goods killed it with this device. The intentional design, and their love for the cannabis community, flows through this product, packaging and all. Creating a dope experience that truly is unique to Session’s products.
The simplistic and modern design of this device accommodates the style and sensibility of new-age smokers and old-school stoners alike. The Session Goods Water Bong produces some of the smoothest, most satisfying hits we’ve ever experienced from glassware. With hits this smooth, we may need to get crafty and macgyver this device into a dab rig.
The Designer Water Bong from Session Goods has removed all of the complexities of smoking. By streamlining the process (and design) they less room for error and more time for blazing up. This device is discreet, easy to operate, and adds a level of sophistication to any session. After trying this piece, we understand the hype. From top to bottom, the Water Bong from Session Goods has more than earned its designer label.
