ILLadelph Glass 499

The ILLadelph Glass 499 is an entry-level premium borosilicate glass water pipe designed to deliver reliable filtration and smooth airflow in a streamlined, no-frills form. It offers the core performance of higher-end ILLadelph pieces in a more accessible size and price point. The 499 employs a traditional downstem-to-water chamber system. Smoke is drawn through the downstem into the water, where it is cooled before traveling up the main tube for inhalation. The compact chamber volume allows for quick clears and responsive pulls, making the piece easy to control and efficient for shorter sessions. Consistent with ILLadelph’s design philosophy, the internal geometry is intentionally simple to reduce drag, preserve airflow, and make cleaning straightforward. Highlights: - Accessible premium quality: Delivers ILLadelph craftsmanship without the size or cost of larger models. - Efficient performance: Smaller volume supports fast clears and reduced material waste. - Durability: Thick, laboratory-grade borosilicate glass resists everyday thermal and mechanical stress. - Low maintenance: Minimal internal components simplify cleaning and upkeep. - Brand trust: Manufactured by ILLadelph Glass, the 499 provides dependable performance backed by a well-established reputation for quality and consistency.
