It's got a closed mouthpiece, with a very small hole, which adds noticeable drag.

Really? Your hole must be super tiny. I notice no extra drag at all on my D-020-W and I'm extremely picky on drag.

If anything, the smaller hole MP helps me pace my hit. I can't draw too fast/hard and run out of breath like on some pieces.

I just loaded it with water to double-check. Only notice drag when I'm pulling as hard as I can.

Kinda the exact opposite thing you want on a matrix rig.

Yours has a Matrix perc? Is there a newer version?

I was gonna say that I'd avoid pieces that look like you will have bubbles coming into the neck , because that means you will probably be getting your lips wet at the very least... Nobody wants that.

It looks good. Noticeable changes from the picture are that the neck connection is flat, and the mouthpiece is different from yingmin'5.

From the product page tho:
This Roor Bong is part of the new Logo Series, which is characterized by a special RooR Logo.


This newly designed RooR logo features a base color which in this case is black and is complemented by a contrasting outline, but most importantly the new RooR Logo Series Little Sista is made to the same exacting standards as all Roor bongs. They only use the purest, highest-quality borosilicate glass and are renowned by glass connoisseurs the world over for their workmanship.


For reliability, stability, extreme quality and unrivalled functionality, you cannot improve on China-made Roor bongs.



Height:12"
Color:Clear With ROOR LOGO
Glass thickness:5mm
Glass Tube Diameter:60mm
2 Percalators
Joint Size:18.8mm19#AC & Clear circular bottom

Please leave your comments for the colour. We will randomly

arrange the colour.

So you might want to double check with the seller if they are coming without logo's, or with RooR ones.

Edit: In case anyone wondered what I was referring to, it is statements like this from that vendor quote: "For reliability, stability, extreme quality and unrivalled functionality, you cannot improve on China-made Roor bongs."

I am by know means an expert on being able to tell a recyclers ability to function or vortex by pictures. There are some things I do know from experience. One thing that is concerning is the perc because the 3 or 4 hole diffuser is left open on the end it is going to be very chuggy making the water splash violently which will make it harder to recycle. Also it is always better if the perc is above the return although that's not written in stone either because I have seen one that had no vortex at all with that configuration. That I believe was due to the perc not being straight. Bottom line in your case it may recycle water but I would be shocked if it vortexes. N By all means that does not take from nice color accents and cool look of it.

Well, I know for a fact another member here (who isn't a qualified glassblower afaik :lol:) actually torched their mouthpiece and widened it up a little, so its not a problem unique to me...
Maybe its just a factor of varying tolerances for that mouthpiece hole?

Also, to be clear, when I say noticeable drag, its not like I hit the thing and said damn, that mouthpiece sucks...
It's more like I hit it, and there was just enough drag to put me off and think a bit further about WTF was causing it.
The mouthpiece was the only thing that made sense.

I didn't know there were any versions of the d020-w that had anything but a matrix perc?

Ordered a Fab Egg from Kathy on Dec 8, shipped on the 15th and cleared customs in BC today. Should have it before New Year's at this rate (faster if it weren't for Xmas). Can't wait to try it out!

That I did! Definitely not a qualified glass blower, nor did I use quite enough torch, but it worked fine. Love the D020-W, but not the small mouthpiece hole. More problematic for cleaning than hitting IMO, but both of the ones I have hit much better with the hole opened up. Not too hard to do with a decent butane torch, but officially not advising anyone to do this. If you try it, just be very careful.

I use one of mine much more than the other, and it is a favorite piece for me. Small, sidecar, just a little diffusion - pretty much perfect for a sit back with the nano piece IMO. Right now is still holding second in the glass pecking order here. Hoping the FC-187 will fill the gap between this and the jhanpixel sidecar (also very nice but a bit bigger and heavier - solid US glass).

Well I got my order from Steven. Initial impressions are highly positive. It hits real smooth, nice thick glass, seems well made. Nice.

I also got the recycler pictured in the same order. I am very happy with both pieces. Will be back with more later.

I have the exact same order coming so I'm looking forward to your thoughts on the recycler too.

I have the barrel to funnel from Steven - I like it much better than the double barrel.

The double barrel never really felt like much of a recycler to me...

The barrel-funnel doesn't have the best vortex to it (though it can vortex a bit) but it recycles like a champ.

I've been waiting for my d020-d from sunshine as well. Tracking showed it was delivered to the local post office in Baltimore, MD this morning, It's also showing, for the first time, an expected delivery of today the 22nd. Problem is I live in FL. LoL. Crazy.

Edit: Now officially Out For Delivery, 1000 miles away. I think I got a tracking number for the wrong package or the put the wrong address on my order. This sucks.

wow, I don't usually get this nervous waiting for china glass orders, but that double vortex I ordered on 12/5, has not shown any tracking movement since it showed up in the china sort on the 10th... 12 days with no updates, making me a little nervous. I am hoping for the best, and was really hoping to get this before the hoiliday, but I am not so sure that is going to happen now. Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised and have it show up this week with no tracking updates... not the usual routine though. I have had very good luck with my past orders moving relatively quick and having tracking that updated must have spoiled me LOL come on double vortex, don't leave me hanging!! :lol: I'm only complaining in hopes it creates a bit of murphey's law...

I hope everyone is having a good holiday week. I'll be back with pics and vids should my double V show up soon. That FC-187 looks good, wish I had more $$ to toss at it, but I'll be happy just to get what I've already ordered at this point. :p I've been using my regular 187 a lot recently.
