Review: 420 Pipes Sample Box
Over the last few years, there has been a proliferation of subscription-style services delivering a monthly rotation of curated cannabis smoking accessories. Being a tastemaker is no easy feat, but that hasn’t stopped the folks at 420 Pipes from throwing their hat into the mix. I recently received the Sample Box and found out what sets 420 Pipes Sample Box apart from the others.
As with most smoking accessory monthly subscription services, the 420 Pipes sample box comes with a packaged selection of 2-3 house choice pieces. As an added bonus, they ship all 420 Pipes orders with free shipping if customers grab the subscription box. Use promo code ILLINOISNEWSJOINT420 for a 10% discount on all products.

The mystery made unboxing a treat, and honestly, I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. I found my new pieces wrapped securely, and each one contained in its own individual bag (with a sticker!). I found a small yellow bong, a glass chillum, and the smallest, most adorable spoon pipe I have ever seen. All the pieces were glass.
The yellow bong stood just over three inches tall and sat comfortably in my hand. It had a carb on the rear for clearing which had the added bonus of making it easy to use with one hand. I’ve been keeping it at my desk for quick midday rips.
The tiny spoon was definitely the most fun piece in the box and will make the perfect sight gag when people want to match bowls. Despite its palm-of-the-hand size, it was easy to smoke and clean.
The chillum had a deep bowl, a stylish “twisted” design to the glass, and after a few days of consistent use, a beautiful blue-green fumed coloring. The chillum has been the piece I’ve gotten the most use out of, and I’ve found it easy to toss in my bag with a lighter and grab whenever I need.
The “surprise” experience of unboxing and a set of glass pieces that are already getting spots in my rotation have made this a win for me. I’ve been called “utilitarian” before (both as a compliment and insult), and this sample box made me realize that it may be time to expand my rather basic glass range.
What sets this Sample Box apart from the others subscription boxes, as with all 420 Pipes products, is the affordability. 420 Pipes can be found on Instagram @fourtwentypipes and Facebook.
