Their pretty handy if you smoke while you work and ideal for card players.

Mostly pots, billiards and apple shapes work best realy. I'd call a straight bulldog more of a leaner ! I have lots of sitters and love 'em

I have several sitters and it's nice to be able to set them down on a table or desk, but I have a Stanwell leather pipe rest (like the one shown below), which makes all of my pipes "sitters".  |

The majority of the time I’m clenching the pipe I’m smoking, any pipe, even my sitters. If it’s a “ great to superb “ smoker I’ll go with any shape👍

I have a few, but I've never had any reason to just sit it down. I usually hold my pipe whether I am reading or doing something sitting down.

I prefer something I can set down whenever without worrying about a pipe stand. I do clench most of the time but I do like a good sitter.

I prefer them too. I hate it when my pipe rolls on its side and the tobacco falls out.

I have a few, and they are fine, but I am not looking to acquire another. (Nor looking to avoid same)

I prefer them too. I hate it when my pipe rolls on its side and the tobacco falls out. Likewise. That happens to me. I really like the pipes with a narrow flattened surface on the bottom of the shank and bowl so they can be rested in the upright position. I don't really care for pokers with the big flat bottoms, though those are probably the most stable shape. |

I love the ones I have because I am always fiddling and it's nice to just sit the pipe down without worrying about a pipe stand.
