About the Product
This 8-inch bong uses an 8-arm tree percolator for super smooth, cool hits. Its bent neck design stops splashback, making it comfortable and reliable for daily use.
This 8-inch bong is built for smokers who want smooth, cooled-down hits and a comfortable experience. We combined the powerful filtration of an 8-arm tree percolator with the practical, ergonomic design of a bent neck. Made from thick, durable borosilicate glass, it's a reliable daily piece that delivers clean-tasting sessions. The stable 4-inch base helps prevent tipping, making it a sturdy and dependable choice.
What Makes This Bong A Solid Daily Choice?
Its balance of advanced filtration and a no-fuss design makes it perfect for regular use. The tree percolator gives you great cooling without adding too much drag, while the bent neck lets you smoke in a relaxed position without worrying about water splashback. Its compact 8-inch size is easy to handle and store, but it performs like a much larger piece.

What Features Make This Bong So Effective?
Beyond the specs, the way the percolator and neck work together is what makes this piece special. It’s a system designed for high-performance filtration in a compact size.
How Does The 8-Arm Tree Perc Improve Hits?
When you inhale, smoke is pulled into the main chamber and then up through the tree percolator's trunk. From there, it splits into eight arms. Each arm has small slits that shred the smoke into thousands of bubbles. This process hugely increases the smoke's contact with water, resulting in rapid cooling and effective filtration.
What Is The Main Benefit Of A Bent Neck Design?
The main benefits are comfort and splash prevention. Unlike a straight tube where you lean directly over the piece, a bent neck lets you use it from a more natural, laid-back position. This angle also creates distance from the bubbling perc, making it almost impossible for water to splash into your mouth.
Evidence:
- The 8-arm perc diffuses smoke through numerous slits for cooling.
- The angled mouthpiece prevents water from reaching you.
- The design promotes a more comfortable, relaxed smoking posture.
What Are Some Under $60 Percolator Alternatives?
While the tree perc delivers fantastic smoothness, other designs might fit different preferences or budgets. Here’s how it compares to other popular styles we carry.
| Bong Style | Primary Benefit | Drag Level | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8-Arm Tree Perc (This Bong) | Maximum smoothness and cooling | Low-Medium | Users who want cool, non-harsh hits. |
| Classic Beaker Bong (No Perc) | Durability and large volume hits | Very Low | Simplicity, easy cleaning, and big rips. |
| Honeycomb Perc Bong | Fast, aggressive bubbling action | Low | Quick diffusion with minimal resistance. |
| Straight Tube Bong | Direct flavor and fast clearing | Very Low | Users who want pure flavor and a quick hit. |
Evidence:
- Tree percolators are well-known for providing extremely smooth hits.
- Simpler designs like beaker bongs often have lower drag and are easier to clean.
How Do You Maintain This Bong?
Keeping your tree perc bong clean is key for the best performance and flavor. Regular maintenance prevents buildup in the percolator's delicate arms. We strongly recommend an ash catcher to reduce how often deep cleaning is needed.
What Is The Best Way To Clean The Perc Arms?
The goal is to dissolve the resin, not scrub it out. Soaking it in a dedicated cleaning solution or a mix of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt works best. Shaking gently helps the salt knock loose any residue inside the arms.
Quick Cleaning Steps
- Empty & Rinse: Dump old water and rinse the piece with hot water to loosen surface grime.
- Add Cleaner: Pour in your cleaning solution or isopropyl alcohol and salt. Use enough to submerge the entire percolator.
- Plug & Shake: Plug the openings and shake gently for 1-2 minutes. Be careful to protect the perc arms.
- Soak if Needed: For heavy buildup, let the bong soak for 30 minutes to an hour.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Pour out the dirty solution and rinse with warm water until all residue is gone.
- Dry: Let it air dry completely before your next use.
Evidence:
- Cleaning requires dissolving resin with a solvent like isopropyl alcohol.
- Soaking is often necessary to break down heavy buildup inside perc arms.
- An ash catcher can significantly reduce the frequency of deep cleanings.
What Should I Know Before My First Session?
A little prep work ensures you get the best performance from your bong right from the first hit.
Before Use
- Check Water Level: Fill with enough water to submerge all the slits on the perc arms, but not so high that it might splash.
- Test the Airflow: Take a dry pull without any herb to check for bubbling and ensure the water level is right.
- Confirm Joint Fit: Make sure your 14mm male bowl fits snugly into the joint to prevent air leaks.
- Inspect the Glass: Give it a quick look to ensure it arrived safely with no cracks from shipping.
After Use
- Smoother Hits: Expect much less coughing and throat irritation compared to pieces without a perc.
- No Splashback: Notice how the bent neck keeps all water inside the chamber where it belongs.
- Change Water Often: For the best flavor, remember to change the water daily.
- Check for Clogs: After a few sessions, look at the perc arm slits to see if any residue is starting to build up.
Evidence:
- The correct water level is crucial for percolator function and splash prevention.
- Frequent water changes preserve the flavor of your herbs.
