I love this bong! I am a beginner as it’s the first one I’ve ever purchased or used. My bong looks exactly as pictured. In some reviews the pink looks pretty light/almost clear but I was happy to see the pink was like the photo when I opened it. I love how the mouthpiece fits, I enjoy the smooth rips and taste/filtration from the percs. I actually broke my slide the same day it arrived and cannastyle sent me a replacement free of charge!! (as per their warranty). Both orders shipped super quick, bubble-wrapped extensively and carefully and came with cute stickers that I’ve used to decorate my rolling tray :). I use this bong every day, multiple times a day. So easy to clean with isopropyl alcohol and salt.
