Christmas gift list for the stoner on your sofa

By Tom Tripp

It’s that time of year again—the second big ‘C’ word is upon us! If you’re anything like me, your partner will inevitably say something like, “I don’t need anything” or “You don’t have to get me anything,” only to end up on the big day with nothing but that last-minute box of Maltesers. This year, you can avoid that sullen luncheon by taking a quick look at this gift list. Here I’ve curated a list of the finest items in any stoner’s arsenal, all available from British stores. Whether your budget is £10 or £500, and regardless of whether your other half is him, her, they or them, these gifts are sure to shine when wrapped in festive paper and placed under the tree or above the fireplace.

We’ll go in order from least expensive to ‘oh my god really!?’

To kick things off, we present an item we love to use at parties and social functions. The RAW Trident makes the perfect stocking filler. Being smaller in length than the average kingskin, load it with three of your favourite strains (or kick in as a group) and enjoy a trifecta of smoking excellence by blazing all 3 at once. Made out of sustainable knotwood to boot. This is a responsibly sourced material that falls in line with RAW’s eco-friendly values. Priced between £9.95-£12.95. Found at lowest price at www.thesmokingfox.co.uk

Perhaps that’s not your taste. Rather than being part of a social gathering, you prefer a bath and a book and some chronic. In that case, unwind in the smooth scents and earthy, winter aromas of a CBD Orange, Cranberry and Cinnamon Candle from the CBD Candle company.

The CBD Candle Co specializes in CBD-infused candles designed to promote relaxation, improve sleep, and alleviate anxiety. Each candle contains 20mg of premium-grade CBD oil and is made from all-natural ingredients, including vegan-friendly wax, hemp oil, essential oils, and cotton wicks. They are available in a variety of scents, each selected for its calming and therapeutic properties, such as Sandalwood for relaxation, Lavender for sleep, and Nag Champa for meditation​. And while those scents are beautiful (Sandalwood is a firm favourite of mine), it wouldn’t be Christmas without cranberry and/or cinnamon. Each candle has a burn time of approximately 45 hours and the glass container can be reused. Cosy. £27.95 from www.cbdcandlecompany.co.uk

This next one is a nightmare to find under £50. Luckily, I’m a skilled professional, and I can tell you how to find it for £34.99. But I’d better explain what it is first. The Tectonic9 is a brand new innovation in electric grinding. Developed by Cloudious9, featuring an automatic dispensing mechanism for dry herbs. What this means for you is maximum efficiency for minimum effort. This durable grinder stands out due to its combination of traditional grinding with modern convenience, making it ideal for users who frequently prepare dry herbs for vaping or rolling. This device is so cool, and really makes the latter end of the session easier on the hands. Normally they come in a variety of colours, but if you want one in anything but grey, you’ll be paying full price. If you want it at £34.99 in a shiny, futuristic grey then go to www.susam.co.uk and search keyword TECTONIC9, not Cloudious9.

KWACK. Yeah, you heard me. KWACK.KWACK is the versatile silicone water pipe, made to take in the bath. This novelty piece is absolutely bonkers and we’re all for it. I first saw this about 2 years ago on an Instagram profile and fell in love with it. It just says ‘friendly fun times’ while appealing to your inner young, fresh faced stoner-self. And guess where the rush hole is! At £40.00, it does seem like the high end of the price scale for a piece like this, but the lifespan makes it worth every penny. The stem is unbreakable too, and I bet your glass piece can’t say that! Available from www.piecemaker.uk

I think every adult over a certain age has a plushie of some sort. I had a plushie Pikachu from 1998 until last year. Devastated to lose him, but it was time. He smelt worse than I care to admit and had been through more house moves than the DIY SOS team. On my search for a soft new bedfellow, I came across an anthropomorphic racing green nug-type Buddy. Aptly named, Buddy High. Not only does he boast a wonderfully welcoming smile, but he also has a sly little zipper in the back, meaning you can store some nuggies in Buddy. He also comes beautifully presented in his own mega sized mylar bag. My other half has, of course, stolen him from my possession-but if she hadn’t, I’d probably have bought her a Buddy to call her own. Available currently at the discount price of £40.00 instead of £49.99 from www.buddyhigh.com

Now, this one is for those who appreciate the art of dabbing done right. The MJ Arsenal Gemini Mini Dab Rig is a compact powerhouse, standing at a travel-friendly 6.5 inches tall. This little gem is crafted from high-quality borosilicate glass and comes with a 10mm female joint that pairs with a 10mm male banger (included), so if you’re holding onto any 10mm accessories, you’re in luck—this rig’s got you covered.

What makes the Gemini stand out for me begins with the fitted puck percolator that filters your hits beautifully, keeping things smooth and steady. The angled neck works functionally too and isn’t just for style points—it’s ergonomic, making each pull easy and natural (and keeps water away from your mouth). And that inverted cone shape? It’s a masterstroke, minimizing splashback and keeping the rig mess-free. Stability is key here too with a thick, rounded base that lets you set it down safely between hits. This rig is designed for ease of use, whether you’re at home or on the move, giving you clean, consistent sessions every time. Sure, it’s small, but trust me—this one hits like a champ. Available from www.crystallizednectar.co.uk at a very reasonable £85.00.

Perhaps glassware isn’t for you. Maybe the thought of fingerprints on your clean, new items makes you itch. In which case, how about some ceramic style homeware?

Seth Rogen isn’t necessarily someone you think of when I say the word ‘décor’. Most associate him with his boisterous and distinctive laugh, offbeat American comedies, and of course, smoking dope. But over the last few years, he has expanded into further markets, such as homewares (and fragrances too. Wild move, sir).

With his brand, Houseplant, Rogen has infused his unique sense of style and humour into everyday items, making them not just functional but also visually appealing. The Houseplant Table Lighter & Ashtray Set is a perfect example of this ethos in practice. Combining practicality with aesthetics, this set elevates the typical smoking experience into a more bougie, curated affair. The lighter features a sleek design that fits comfortably in your hand, while the ashtray adds a touch of sophistication to your smoking space.

Both items are crafted with quality materials, showcasing Rogen’s commitment to producing products that resonate with both cannabis enthusiasts and design aficionados. Not something I’d instantly associate with Rogen given his dress sense and laid-back attitude.

Not only does this set serve its purpose, but it also acts as a statement piece, allowing users to showcase their passion for cannabis culture without sacrificing style. Whether it’s displayed on a coffee table or used during a gathering with friends, this set encourages conversations and reflects Rogen’s belief that cannabis should be embraced and celebrated as part of everyday life. Bridging the gap between cannabis use and home décor, Seth Rogen has successfully created a line that appeals to a modern audience. His willingness to venture into new markets with authenticity and humour makes the Houseplant Table Lighter & Ashtray Set a must-have for any cannabis lover looking to enhance their smoking experience. £99 at www.endclothing.com

I absolutely love a bit of tech to make my life easier. I might be a bit of a stereotypical lazy-stoner type-but that doesn’t mean I’m not efficient. One of my personal struggles is with my hands. I have a condition which affects my joints, and by extension my fingers. So sometimes when I’m using the grinder I might accidentally drop it or be unable to open it at all. The OTTO Grinder and Cone filler set helps me offset a lot of that by doing the hard work for me. The OTTO Grinder and Cone Filler is crafted with precision engineering, reflecting a dedication to both functionality and ease of use. This isn’t just any ordinary gadget—it’s a powerhouse designed to revolutionize the grinding and rolling experience. It features advanced sensors inside the chamber that detect the moisture level and density of your buds, whether they’re sticky, dry, loose, or dense. This smart technology adjusts the grinding speed and pressure accordingly, ensuring you get the perfect consistency every time.

This technology is revolutionary, and OTTO are the first company in the world to be using it. This item is brand new and unique and doesn’t have any replica or market competition at time of writing. OTTO is a genuine game-changer. So, if you’re looking to genuinely surprise someone you love, this is a really great option. Priced at around £99, it’s not a crazy price and could be an item you both discuss together 2, 3 years from now. www.Evertree.co.uk

This next piece is a fantastic addition to any shelf. Yes, it’s a behemoth at 16 inches tall. You’ve probably seen celebrities like Mike Tyson, Berner or the Dope as Usual Podcast team use them. If you have, you already know how awesome these things are. Proud to bring to this list, the Gravity Bong!

This innovative device combines air and water pressure with good old-fashioned gravity to draw smoke through water, ensuring that every hit is super smooth and clean. The water cools and filters the smoke, making it a refreshing experience that enhances the flavour of your flower, shatter, or rosin.

This glorious piece of kit is not just eye-catching; it’s also incredibly easy to use. With its straightforward design, you simply fill the base with water, pack your herb, and let gravity do the work (using the same physics as an old school drainer!). The gravity bong disassembles completely for easy cleaning, ensuring it stays in top shape without any fuss. It’s also compatible with shisha coals, a 14mm cone connector, or a dab rig connector, making it the ultimate versatile tool for your table or shelf.

Also, since these are unbranded, there’s plenty of room for personalisation, making it truly yours! And if you’re looking for tips and tricks, YouTube is bursting with guides on how to assemble, disassemble, clean, and use it in different ways. Grab it while you can at www.hazeydays.co.uk for £200.00.

Trying to get a good automatic dab rig is a ball-ache (or the female equivalent). So, Puffco Peak Pro, is a true game-changer for anyone who appreciates a good smoke (or vaping session, depending on your terminology). After over 20 years experimenting with various methods, I can confidently say that this device has injected a whole new level of excitement into my experience. It’s not just about nostalgia; it’s about stepping into the future of smoking.

What I love most about the Peak is how easy it is to use. With its single-button interface, you won’t be wrestling with complicated settings or manuals. Load your dab, press the button, and you’re good to go. The 3D Chamber technology heats your concentrate evenly from all angles, preserving those rich Flavors and delivering a clean, flavourful hit every single time (try the Blue Zushi if you can!).

No more guessing whether you’ve heated it too much or too little; the real-time temperature control lets you customize your experience, ensuring each session is exactly how you want it. You can also connect the higher end models such as the one recommended to an app to get full control.

For those of us who have been smoking for decades, transitioning to dabbing can feel a bit daunting, but the Puffco Peak Pro makes it accessible and enjoyable. It bridges the gap between the traditional and the new, offering a fresh way to enjoy concentrates while still feeling right at home. Prices really do vary. You can find base level units at around £200, but we recommend the PUFFCO PEAK PRO. The cheapest I have found it (and believe me, I’ve searched for hours trying to decipher the huge number of products they have) is £329.00 from www.vapefiend.co.uk. It also comes in a variety of different colours. The blue is my personal favourite, but the white looks futuristic, the green looks homely and cosy and the black looks like a statement piece.

This one might be the pinnacle of vaporising engineering. If you’re looking for the ultimate gift this Christmas, the Volcano Classic by Storz and Bickle should be at the top of your list. Priced at just £289.00 from www.MagicVaporisers.com, this gem is a steal compared to its usual price of around £429.00—talk about a festive miracle!

I had the pleasure of using one in Tenerife, and it’s a total game-changer. The Volcano Classic is perfect for solo sessions or sharing with friends—because who doesn’t love passing around a balloon filled with vapor? It’s like a party in your living room, minus the awkward small talk. Just fill the herb chamber, set your desired temperature, and let it work its magic.

The Volcano Classic is robust and reliable, featuring convection heating that ensures even roasting, extracting every bit of flavor like a seasoned chef whipping up a five-star meal. The benefits are plenty: users get smooth, flavorful vapor, precise temperature control, and the ability to savor their sessions at their own pace with the detachable balloon system. It’s ideal for those moments when you want to kick back, relax, and enjoy quality time with friends.

This holiday season, elevate someone’s smoking game with the Volcano Classic. It’s a gift that keeps on giving, offering a unique experience that’s sure to impress. Plus, who wouldn’t want to unwrap a vaporizer that promises smooth, flavorful clouds? Get it before the price goes back up—your gift recipient (and their taste buds) will thank you!

Just please remember that it’s not just the big-ticket items that make for great presents. Alongside all the featured products, some unsung heroes deserve a shout-out for their stocking-filler potential. My go-to papers this year are LoudLDN slow-burning rice papers, which are so thin and burn evenly—no more dodgy rolls ruining your vibe. For roaches, I swear by High Tier’s black perforated edges, making rolling a breeze and sparking conversations at festivals.

I can’t forget my trusty Headchef Samurai grinder; it’s a solid metal piece that fits perfectly in my Cheekyones box. Plus, the ridges and grips make it easy to handle, which is a bonus for my less-than-agile hands. When I’m on the go, the Cheekyones V3 rolling club box is my best friend—while it’s not smell-proof, it keeps everything organized like a pro. At home, my Hazeydays XL box is the ultimate storage solution for my ever-growing collection of stoner gear, from quirky papers to dry herb vaporizers. And for a flame, let’s be real, you can never go wrong with a Clipper lighter—it’s a classic for a reason.

This holiday season, whether you’re splurging on a top-of-the-line vaporizer or picking up some thoughtful little gifts, it’s all about enjoying the experience and sharing good times with friends and family. I’d love to hear about your favourite products and gift ideas, so feel free to drop me an email at tom@hazeydays.co.uk or connect with me on Instagram @hazeydaysuk. Cheers to finding the perfect presents and making this festive season one to remember!
