This metal downstem from Tank Glass, aside from aesthetic in design in overall look & feel, the functionality of this piece is no different than any other glass piece. But in my personal opinion I do love this idea and furthermore this product because it will never appear all brown and dirty and it comes apart in multiple pieces w/adjustable pieces to fit any size glass piece which makes for super easy upkeep on the cleanup. Last but not least, ladies and gentlemen it won’t shatter on you. No matter what kind of luck your working with at any moment in time. (Idk yet)but the most you might get is product design distortion from the metal getting a deep abrasion. Nonetheless, what more could you ask for?

Pulls great, adjustable for differing rigs, disassembles for easy cleaning, and it's virtually indestructible. Hell yeah!

I thought was a joke when I saw them on YouTube bouncing all over the place know I own two of them with metal stem and metal bowls I have the mini and the medium I can’t say enough good things about your company and quality like none other I even bought the metal pipe as well best pipe I have for not being obvious I love your company keep up the outstanding work love you guys

I was so tired of breaking my downstems and feeling like im buying a new one every single week that I finally decided to pony up and grab one of these and holy sh*t it’s incredible. I’m literally never going to buy another stem again so it’s easily worth the price tag. It has a good weight and feel in your hands and it just overall slaps hard af. Get one if you’re thinking about it - just do it!

I love my new down stem, super easy to take apart and clean and the diffuser is awesome! I got the matching bowl as well and I feel like I am set forever now, indestructible!
