I find tar isn't a problem when I clean my pipes after every smoke.

As long as your not washing them off and reusing them...lol
I typically can get a few smokes in on one cleaner.
Washing them looks like work. Figure in time to do it and water, laundry detergent, etc. It is cheaper to just use one every 2 or 3 bowls. If I have to run one down the shank because the draft hole gets clogged or something, that one gets saved and used later.

I love a filter pipe. Who likes a mouth full of gunk?

I like the idea of using a filter, something to absorb the tar and gunk. But I never use them. Just something else I have to remember. I’ll use a filter and then have to wait to remove the sopping wet filter from my pipe when it cools. I don’t have time for it. I use a pipe cleaner after every smoke.

I tend to soak up any gurgle during the smoke with one end of the pipe cleaner, if it happens, and clean it out with the other afterwards. I did occasionally use to use the balsa filters with my Savs, and did like the cleaner taste, but always struggled to remember to buy them.
