Wife bought me two...great smoke...no break in.
As a new pipe smoker, I made the mistake of buying a cheap briar and was quite frustrated and dis-satisfied with the experience. Then I read all the positive reviews about MM cob pipes and got the Washington pipe and must say I am very impressed. I used to think these pipes were toys (when I was growing up, Knott's Berry Farm amusement park in CA sold them as souvenirs). Now these cobs, and especially this model, is what I will be using until I am ready to commit to a more permanent/expensive briar.
Update to my previous review in regards to a loose stem. P&C said MO Meerschaum was aware of the problem. Awhile back they had a problem with the climate control in the plant. Solution is to moisten the bamboo a little and the plastic stem will be tighter.
I enjoy my Missouri Meerschaum pipes. They deliver a great, mild (and slightly sweet smoke when new). I too had a model where the stem was loose. I wish I had noticed it when I received it so I could have P & C replace it. Luckily, I had another one to use today when working outside.
Great pipe for the price, smokes good and I have not run into a bad one yet like some have reported
I was always skeptical of corn cob pipes, but for the price I figured it was worth trying out. I'm glad I did. My MM Washington smokes better than some briars I've tried and adds a slight sweetness to the smoke which I really enjoy. I've added this gem to my regular rotation and look forward to adding more. For the price, why not? One issue I'll mention: I immediately removed the filter which comes in MM pipes. However, I've found that because of the design of the pipe it is much easier to pull some of the tobacco/ash into the stem and thus into your mouth while smoking than with traditional briar designs. Just something to be aware of if you remove the filter, or you can completely avoid this by leaving it in.
Great pipe! Great price! I love it! What more can I say?
Great pipe , smokes good and cool, really affordable price, made in USA what more can u ask for ....buy several
I know these are supposed to be great but mine had a hole straight to through the bottom after the first smoke. had a different model where the stem was so loose it would just fall out (P&C) replaced that one. Smoked good but only got one smoke out of it. Two bum pipes in one order? not sure if i'd purchase again
I bought this as my first cob after having gone straight briar since picking up pipe smoking and it is everything people said it was: cheap, well made and cool smoke. These suckers build up a cake faster than a briar and smoke great for their economy pricing. Can't say enough good things based on quality and value. I strongly recommend.
