Product Review: The Original Bong Buddy

There ain’t nothing like a good bong rip to set you straight. Smoking out of a fresh one with clean, cool water is always a treat. But what do you do when your bong has been well-used and the hits taste less than fresh? Bongs can be a real pain to clean. It’s hard to get in there and clean out all the nooks and crannies. Is there anything you can do to return your trusty water pipe to its original splendor?

Well, if you’re a glass cleaning freak like I am, you’ll be happy to know I found a pretty rad solution. If you haven’t heard of this useful little tool yet, you’re going to want to add it to your collection.

The Original Bong Buddy is a strong, little magnet that effectively and easily cleans all over the inside of your bong. Just drop the smaller magnet in, and use the bigger one to latch on to it from the outside of the glass. Then, drag it around to scratch all that rez off and return your bong to crystal clear cleanliness. It’s a pretty genius design, the scrubby surface on the smaller magnet is sure to break up the resin.

Using this tool, I’ve brought bongs back from the brink of BLECH and restored them to brand new looking. I consider it an essential tool for any bong owner.

A few words from the company:

“Simple & Practical, The Original Buddy is a magnetic scrubby tool that can reach inside small openings and odd shapes. Use Buddy to scrub out vases, baby bottles, coffee pots, fish bowls, small aquariums, wine decanters, antiques, hookahs, tobacco pipes, glass art and MORE! For tough build-up Buddy can be used with any safe cleaner. Try using ordinary rubbing alcohol.”
