Best Cheap drop down adapters?

[ragnorokk]

didn't want to derail the cheap bubbler thread; just curious if anyone would recommend a specific DHgate drop adapter that they like (most I saw looked low quality), or perhaps the drop adapters from thickassglass? I'm trying to keep from breaking the bank on an adapter, since I will likely need to buy a number of other adapters (GonG adapters, reducers, etc) in the very near future.

Hyman quartz isn't bad. Obviously, don't expect OGB quality or anything, but definitely solid for the price.

Don't get me wrong, I have some stuff I need OGB to make, and his prices are great. I'm buying a banger on DHgate, thought I'd see if any of the adapters on DHgate are worth it, or if I should just use TAG/OGB/LHS. The Thickassglass drops look different than what I see on DHgate, and I'm not really sure what styles are more sturdy, easier to clean, etc. Hadn't seen any reviews one way or the other of hyman (had been thinking of getting their 4mm thick banger), glad to hear something positive.

The Hyman quartz ones are nothing special at all but are solid. They're the ones you'll see in LHS's for $20-30. I've also got a TAG dropdown, which is also nicely made, but has a weird angle to it, and doesn't push the joint out very far. I regrettably bought an iDab dropdown when I first started really getting into concentrates. It's by far the best made of any of my dropdowns, and has a nice swoop instead of a straight tube, but was $45.

I think of dropdowns now as almost disposable. I buy as cheap as possible because they will inevitably break/crack/chip.

all of my dhgate dropdowns are really dropzerodegreessobothendsarethesameheights, BUT they are disposable at the price point

As long as it catches the occasional lost wax reclaim adapter would be ok too, I suppose. Just lookin for cheap and somewhat effective.
