5 Reasons Why Heavy Pounders Are Worth the Money

If you smoke flower on the regular, you know the value of a quality bong. But not just any bong—a heavy pounder. These thick glass beakers and tubes aren’t just built to last—they’re built to smoke right.

At The Encore Collection, our heavy pounders glass Series is designed for real daily use with performance and durability at the core. Here's why investing in one of our super thick glass beaker bongs is a smart move for any serious flower smoker.


1. They're Built Like a Tank

Let’s start with the obvious: heavy pounders are made from 9mm thick borosilicate glass, which is some of the thickest glass you’ll find in the industry. These pieces are solid—way more resistant to chips, cracks, and everyday accidents than your average bong.

If you've ever lost a piece to a small fall or tip-over, you know the pain. With a heavy duty beaker bong, you’ll worry less and smoke more.


2. They Rip Smoother Than You Think

Thick glass means a larger, heavier base—and with that comes more stability, larger water volume, and better smoke cooling. Paired with triple ice pinches and a classic diffused downstem, heavy pounders deliver cooler, smoother hits with less throat burn.

These aren’t just for show—they’re made to be smoked. Hard.


3. They Outlast Everything Else on the Shelf

Flower smokers tend to be loyal to their favorite pieces, but if you're tired of constantly replacing thin-walled tubes, a heavy pounder is a long-term upgrade. The thicker glass means fewer breakages over time, making it a great value—especially for daily smokers.

It’s simple math: buy once, use forever (or close to it). Browse our 9mm bongs and feel the difference.


4. They Look and Feel Like Quality

Heavy pounders don't just hit better—they look better too. There’s something about picking up a well-balanced, thick-glass tube and setting it down with a satisfying thunk on the table. Whether you prefer a clear glass beaker bong or something with bold color accents, Encore’s got you covered with clean, confident designs made to last.

Take a look at our classic glass beakers and you’ll see what we mean.


5. They’re Made for Real Smokers

No gimmicks. No flashy decals. Just heavyweight beaker bongs designed to handle what you throw at them. Whether it’s your daily driver or your go-to weekend ripper, these pieces are perfect for flower lovers who want consistency, performance, and strength in their setup.

  • Smoke flower daily or multiple times a week
  • Need something that can take real use and occasional accidents
