Gravity VORTEX: The Ultimate Gravity Bong - by Rosie the Reviewer

This bong is a must have for any smoking apparatus procurer. The Gravity Vortex goes beyond any of the typical bongs on the market. Not just for its ability to deliver the perfect hit but also because of its durability, portability, and its singular design. This bong is basically hands free. Just turn the knob and light, it will do the rest for you!

Unlike most gravity bongs this bong is virtually a single unit partnered only with a glass slide. Nothing to lose! It is made out of a plexi-type-plastice and it is rugged, making it very portable.

What I liked most about this bong was how easy it was to use. Simply add water and your favorite burnable matter then turn the knob and light. Using the carburetor will help to slow the water providing a more powerful hit for those of you with lungs of steel. With the Gravity Vortex you can also choose how you take your hit; Keep it up right for a bong hit or tip it upside down for a forced hit.

Over all I would give the Gravity Vortex a 9. Everything needs room to improve.

The Gravity Vortex has already won the Best Product 2006 Cannabis Cup Amsterdam, been featured in High Times, Skunk and Far Out magazines. Best of all the Gravity Vortex was demonstrated on Showtime’s Weeds. You can also catch videos of it on Youtube.com.


The Bubbleator - a review by Med Farmer

Being a medical cannabis user I am always looking for ways to get maximum benefit from my herbs. I’ve used regular bubble bags for over 6 years and the end result has become a regular end of the harvest treat. Still, it has become a chore because of the labor and the constant attention it requires – other patients I know really have trouble with holding the mixer for extended periods of time, etc. So, when I heard that the Bubbleator produced great hash and would do most of the work, well, I had to check it out.
I did a little research and ordered from Green Harvest’s website. It was a no hassle experience and my new toy arrived in less than a week from! The unit, which looks like a mini-washing machine really, was white and bright blue, just like the one shown on the website. Inside the washer was the 220-micron zipper bag where you insert your trim. They also included a 3-bag set with 220-, 70-, and a 38-micron screens in addition to a sieve and thermometer. Everything appeared to be in excellent shape and pretty much ready to rock those trichromes off.
I had the unit up and purring in less than 10 minutes. Then, after only an 8 minute cycle, the first batch was run. What a pleasant change! Just following their directions I ran a 3 ounce batch of trim for 8 minutes and the results were great. And, it was so easy. Even the draining the water was no problem – it drains right out the little hose. Smart. Running the same batch through a second time gave about half as much, but it was worth it.
After testing this item out I would say it is defi nitely worth the investment. The more I use it, the more I wonder why I didn’t get it sooner!
