Pros & Cons of Wooden Stems
Advantages
- Durability: Far more resilient than glass—drop-resistant and long-lasting.
- Unique Aesthetics: Each stem features a one-of-a-kind wood grain pattern, handcrafted for a natural finish.
- Comfort: Wood stays cooler to the touch, especially during longer sessions.
- Flavor Smoothing: Adds subtle warmth and softens the vapor for those sensitive to sharp hits.
Disadvantages
- Cleaning Limitations: You can’t soak the entire stem in alcohol—just the metal section. Wood must be cleaned gently.
- Slight Flavor Shift: If you prefer 100% neutral vapor, wood might slightly alter the profile compared to glass.
- Price: Handmade craftsmanship and materials make these more expensive than standard glass stems.
Final Verdict
If you're looking to personalize your Arizer vaporizer with something handcrafted, durable, and full of character, Ed’s TNT wooden stems are a brilliant choice. They deliver smooth vapor, top-tier construction, and a tactile feel glass simply can’t match.
That being said, I personally do prefer glass simply for the purity - even though glass stems are prone to smashing!
I'd recommend a wooden stem as a permanent back up, and glass stems as 'daily drivers'. Just my 2 cents though!
