stem is not as tough as the bowl, so be gentle with it. I dropped mine about a foot onto a tile and a chip broke off. Its still usable. Perfect in every other way. Too big to pull in one hit.

Thick, easy to keep clean and good bowl and hole size.

You guys, if you like ripping cones, this is a wonderful cone to buy. It's big - if you're smoking without mix it's a large hit. I downgraded from this large one to the regular size, which is a lot of fun. The 'Medium' size really isn't very different to this one. If you're smoking with mix it's probably the perfect size. It doesn't exactly feel sturdy, but it's certainly not flimsy either! Great buy for the price.
