Design & Construction
Bonza Bong:
Classic Aussie style bong (very popular in Australia).
Usually made from glass or acrylic, with a metal stem and rubber grommets.
Features a straight neck and wide base.
No internal percolators — just a basic downstem with a few small slits or holes.
Percolator Bong:
Typically made from glass.
Contains one or more percolators (complex water diffusers) inside the bong.
Percolators can come in various types (tree, honeycomb, showerhead, etc.).
More intricate build, often larger or multi-chambered.
Filtration & Smoothness
Bonza Bong:
Basic single-stage filtration (water only).
Smoke can be harsher, especially with big hits.
Less cooling and filtration compared to percolator bongs.
Percolator Bong:
Multi-stage filtration and diffusion.
Smoke passes through water multiple times, cooling and filtering it better.
Produces smoother, cooler, and less harsh hits.
In conclusion!!
Bonza Bong:
Beginners
People who like quick, strong hits
Durability and ease of cleaning
Percolator Bong:
Intermediate to experienced users
Those who prefer smoother, cooler smoke
Enjoying more refined hits or longer sessions
