Water Pipes and Bubblers
Bubblers add water to a pipe you can hold in one hand. Smoke gets pulled through and cooled before it reaches you, without the stand or the piece of furniture in the corner of the room. ONGROK makes two glass bubblers, and they split on one thing: what happens when you drop them. The Scandinavian Pocket Bubbler is borosilicate end to end, seven colors, $32.00, and the cheapest way to find out whether the format suits you. The Portable Glass Aluminum Bubbler runs the same glass airway inside an aircraft-grade aluminum shell, so the draw is still glass but the part that hits the floor is metal. Glass if you're careful with your gear, aluminum if it lives in a bag. Both bubbler pipes draw through glass either way. The Double Glass Wall Water Pipe is the outlier, a beaker with a removable bowl and a downstem, built to stay on a table.
