The Incredibowl-Anyone own one?

After watching a few of the videos around and reading how it works, I wouldn't mind picking one up at that price. That really isn't that much if you spend much money on glass to start with. The durability is my thing, they say if you break it you take a picture of it and email it to them and they replace it. The only thing they don't cover is the glass bowl itself.

I think they're pretty cool. Surely you could come up with some thing that smokes in a similar way, but it won't be as portable/snazzy looking. Def looks like quality work. I'd like to rip one first, tho.

Thanks to all for your feedback. I think some are missing my point here though by trying to convince me I can make a gravity bong out of a 2 liter, or make BHO, or a vaporizer, or whatever. All of these things are great, but I started this thread because I wanted to know how great the Incredibowl is, or isn't. I'm well educated in all things cannabis, so it's not like I'm unaware of the myriad ways to consume cannabis. It's just that I saw this, researched it, and thought it fit the bill rather nicely and wanted to know what fellow IC'ers thought about the device. So thanks to all who are giving specific thoughts/feedback about this device. Keep em' coming!

Just placed my order, I've seen people pay 3times what I paid for this thing only to break their piece in a month, so don't get on me for paying 200 dollars for this...

I'll update once I actually get to test it some...

Hey I recently got my Incredibowl and I really like it. KJ, in smoothness and smoke temperature, this pipe is similar to a bong hit, except the taste doesn't get lost in the water. One hit off of this device equals several off of a vaporizer. What really sold me is the kind after-taste that I don't get with a glass hitter or bong, and how easy it is to control the size of your hit. In one breath, I can take little puff then clear, little puff then clear, etc... to get a more pleasant taste experience; or I can keep pulling until the entire hitter is cashed (it comes with two different bowl sizes, small and large). I've taken huge rips when I need a higher dosage all at once or little by little when I wan to really taste a strain.

Then there's the whole indestructable aspect. Let's take a survey how long a glass bong/bubbler lasts or how many glass pieces we've had over the years. It feels a very solid and well designed piece of engineering. Who needs a lifetime warranty on something that'll never break. Come on, the thing gets run over by a 5-6 thousand pound jeep, then someone immediately picks it up and smokes it. So I bet I can throw this thing as hard as I can at a brick wall and it'll be just fine. Oh and it's fun to smoke, too. I look forward to the next time I get to hit it.

freeride - I haven't had to clean mine yet and it still tastes the same, but I've seen someone else's well-used incredibowl and the only thing that gets gunked up with time is the screen nozzle just beyond the end of the glass hitter (like with any screened bowl) and the actual glass hitter. simple, quick

Just cleaned it. The screen was gunked up like in a standard bowl, cleaned the glass hitter like any bong hitter. It took a few minutes, replaced the screen and it's back in action.

If your lady is having trouble toking more than 3 or 4 hits, I'd strongly suggest constructing a waterfall bong (or purchase one if you want something not so ghetto). I swear, waterfall bongs are the one thing that get me more baked than any other device, even my buddie's Illadelph. Assuming you construct your own, I'd suggest finding a way to add a downstem so the smoke travels through the water, not just settleing on top; it gets cooled much, much more. On the plus side to Waterfall bongs, you use far less bud.

10-18-2009 Just placed my order, I've seen people pay 3times what I paid for this thing only to break their piece in a month, so don't get on me for paying 200 dollars for this...

10-29-2009Apparently mine is just shipping out today... ten days later.. hopefully

Well it turns out the company I ordered from has gone out of business[corrected in next post], or their account with incredibowl has ended, or some crap. I have to wait for my bank and "jmdistributing" to dispute the chargeback.

If I'm lucky I'll get my money back in nine days and be able to order direct from incredibowl and save 50 bucks, but they're leaving for amsterdam in three weeks so I might end up just giving up on this thing, even though I've been jonesing for it since [the first time] I ordered it....

Sorry to keep bumping this, just wanted to try to clear something I said up.

I just talked to the J of JM distributing, and I guess the people that he does his money stuff through got wind that it was a cannabis related deal and they shut him out.

He's still got 300 or so of them left but can't actually process any orders, so it's not technically JM Distro's fault...

He mentioned that there was another guy in the same situation as me, which sucks for us, but I'm feeling bad for JM now - His reputation/business is getting messed up and the guys at incredibowl don't seem too psyched on him, even after he seemed to help them get most of their publicity.

Anybody have a tiny violin?

if you wanna help your wife who can't take smoke hits in a large amount, i'd suggest making edibles. it's a good cheap way to get the job done.

I just get off the phone with Mitch from incredibowl - he saw this thread and is going to be shipping me one today, so I'm actually pretty stoked...

And I was wrong (again) about the JM guy... I guess he owes a lot of money/broke a few agreements, and it's really unlikely for him to have 300 incredibowls, so you might want to watch out for his companies in the future.

Situation is taking a turn back to positive...
