...first of all online is a bad place to start. you cannot even see the pieces in person before you buy them.

second, you will not and cannot find a bong that has a lot of percs, ice catcher, diffuser, big new bowl...for anywhere near 150. one of my bongs, which originally was 150, got marked up to 200 not including tax because i got a nice bowl and a diffuser downstem.

its a triple natural perc lazy boy. it really is nothing compared to a stand up straight triple perc. also it has close to no color changing and effects. probably be 3 or so feet stretched out.

you need to visit places that carry hand blown, or name brand bongs in your area. my 4 foot hand-blown skyglass double perc, was $320, it has a huge bowl. it's not even near as expensive as a nice name-brand bong. you would have to pay 400 or so to get a really awesome, name-brand bong with multiple percs, decent size(at least 3 feet), thick glass, ice catcher, diffuser, nice bowl, ashcatcher, possibly glass on glass, . i mean they work the best and tend to be durable.

if you are not that interested in all the commodities and hype of name-brand bongs...the faded bong in my signature cost 135 and i got a big double chamber bowl for it, ended up 160 with tax. it is the first picture, it was incredibly thick glass, color changing, hit and cooled the smoke so much it was unbelieveable. it could compare with my friends PHX triple perc (not with smoothness) but with the was it hit so well. not glass on glass. one of my favorite bongs i ever had.

but honestly once i got into bigger bongs, i decided it was not worth it to get a small one, so i started buying double bubblers. big ones that cool the smoke a lot and hit like a bong, with deep bowls and intense color changing and design. the last picture is the second one i bought, has diffusers on both down stems. first broke because of some stupid shit, this one broke because i was incredibly drunk, and the third one still stands. the third one has a 2 bowl capability with a glass on glass slide carb that is interchangeable with the second bowl.

they all cost around 125-180 for a nice one and they are well worth your money. i mean i would use them easily five times a day. double bubblers are the best piece to just have sitting in your room.

my advice(with the budget in mind): get a large double bubbler, most smaller bongs aren't worth your time once you experience larger, more advanced bongs and the greatness of the dubbub.
