ADS ripping better then RooR

who else agrees?

Yesterday i ripped 2 different RooR bongs and 2 different ADS bongs, and the ADS bongs ripped consistently better then the RooRs. I got a much bigger hit, i didnt feel the "bubbling resistance" as much with the ADS, and i didnt have the urge to cough as much after taking massive rips from the ADS like i did with the RooR

Dude...Im like scared to speak my mind on Roors....overhyped, overpriced, over done. Im missing whats the diffrence between a ___ glass on glass 7mm beaker tube and a roor 7mm beaker tube, besides the +250 dollars and ubercool label

i can agree to a certain extent especially on overpriced and overhyped. Over done? not quite. I'd like for you to explain how considering it's not like lux where they have splash guards and all this other shit involved. I suppose I could say the same about gorilla glass being overhyped. It's like that with any new product that comes out....everyone on the forum goes off about how good they are and increase in sales then everyone realizes that it was just a fad.

ok

well the 2 Roors were

1. an 18 inch yellow lable with beaker bottom and diffy and just a standard ashcatcher.
2. A 2 foot green lable with regular bottom, diffy, and regular bowl.

the 2 ADS's (i also noticed that i smoke the bongs in the order of RooR, ADS, RooR, ADS)

1. 20 inch red ADS with blue on the top and diffy. We ripped that with both a double ashcatcher, and a regular bowl

2. another 20 inch, this one clear and with more of a "vase" type to it.

the ADS's each ripped consistently smoother, quicker, and just overall better.

Why is gorilla glass a fad? I hope the glass doesnt suck, I just ordered a set up but, who knows what to expect when you get glass that cheap? I just think roors are a little plain and everyone and thier mom has a roor...And yeah id take a lux over a roor anyday.

Umm for 1 Lux is RooR its the sister company of RooR.us and they are blown by the same artist and sold out of the same shops as every RooR.us tube. also the Lux prices aren't that much cheaper then the RooR prices. So why is RooR overpriced and Lux isn't? And It doesn't take much searching to find out that everyone and there mom has a Lux as well.

I'm sorry but i cant take you seriously, When you bash RooR and defend Gorilla Glass, It pretty obvious that Gorilla Glass is cheap sweat shop glass, That just looking at the pics you can tell is poorly blown.

The reason RooR is worth the money they ask is cause there quality control is second to none. If you took 50 ADS tubes and 50 RooR tubes, I guarantee you would find more ADS tubes with defects, Such as, Bubbles in the glass, Poor joint placement, Joint wobble, Ect.

So you can continue to support sweat shops, And buy cheap glass, But remember you get what you pay for.

I hope you see where you cannot judge these two companies. Your types of bongs are completely different. The sizes are different, the diffusers are different, the ashcatchers are different, the shapes are different ......

I've owned both an 18 inch bubble bottom RooR and an 18 inch bubble bottom ADS. Both were 14mm joint sizes and both were ripped with a RooR diffusor and the same bowl. RooR won.

The ADS also had super thin glass at the base but the same 5mm glass on the tube as the RooR.

The ads had no diffusers that's the reason they hit easier or with less draw and cough, but the roor's are still a better piece just needs a little modification.

Anyone who doesnt know LUX is Roor sister comapny is well, not in the know, but you can get a double tree perc lux for the price of a low label tube. I dont see how asking if gorilla glass is a fad and hoping its not shitty glass is praising Gorilla Glass, but, don't take me seriously, Ill keep the 300 bucks I saved and magically turn it to some mango haze or some kush...And yes, id take an ADS with a small flaw over a highly overpriced roor...I love roors, theyre good glass, but THERE IS NO DIFFRENCE BETWEEN MY ILLADELPH STRAIGHT AND MY ROOR STRAIGHT EXCEPT THE PRICETAG AND THE LABELS.

last time i checked the price difference between the Lux mini percs and the RooR mini percs they just started pumping out was about $20. The only reason the bigger RooR perc tubes are so much more expensive is cause they stopped producing them, But if I'm correct there gonna start production again, And the prices for Lux and RooR percs will be about the same.

Also Illa may be a little cheaper but not that much, Also they just recently started doing tree percs, So finding an Illa perc isn't that easy at this point and time, Besides from some of the shady thing i've seen done by Illa to sell there tubes they don't deserve my money.

For example they started getting there trees from the same sci glass company that was doing Luxs trees, Illa was invoicing there tubes as Lux, So they were using the popularity of Lux to sell there tubes, I'm sorry but thats not cool, And i cant support a company that would use such shady business practices.

You can spend your money how ever you please, Its just i keep seeing you post the same thing, over and over, Why is RooR better? Well i told you, So if your ok with defects then by all means buy which ever tube you want. but imo the extra cash is worth it for the quality control.

not going to say roor is better than ads but ads is definitely not better than roor
you pay a little more but you get about as close to perfection with roor as it comes
and try a tree perc'd roor and see what you think
