Bongs come in a variety of materials, each offering different aesthetics and functionality:

Glass: The most common and preferred material for bongs due to its transparency, which allows users to see the smoke fill up the chamber. Glass bongs are often considered to provide the cleanest taste, as they don't affect the flavor of the smoke.

Acrylic: A more affordable option, acrylic bongs are durable and come in a wide range of colors and designs. However, they may not offer the same level of filtration or taste purity as glass bongs.

Ceramic: Ceramic bongs are often more artistic and visually appealing. They provide good functionality, but their fragility and opaque nature make them less practical for everyday use compared to glass or acrylic.

Silicone: Silicone bongs are flexible, durable, and nearly unbreakable, making them ideal for travel or rough handling. They are also easy to clean and maintain.
