Thoughts On This 28'' Hookah

[smokeup]

What do people think about this hookah? Any thing jump at you as far as functionality and how it will smoke?

[*HOT&SMOKING*]

It lookes nice and from fuctionality it looks fine.

It lookes almost like This one that is busy being talked about,only difference yours is a bit shorter.

Maybe wait till the one that is in the link that I posted arrives as it is coming soon for that guy (KillZedKill) ,so wait maybe and ask him for a review.

Thanks H&S. I've seen the posts re that shagadelick hookah, not my style per se, but looks pretty cool. I'm trying to stay under 28" as far as height.

What do people think about this smaller hookah? Is 23" too small to smoke well??

Check out the reviews for the sangria red genie.

You know alot of people say smaller hookahs are better to smoke from than from big hookahs and vice versa......but also the thing is that every hookah smokes different and so one can not really make a 100% predicted decision unless someone has said that it smokes well.....but you can make a educated decision based on the looks I suppose and other stuff, like one can see if the stem is to short sometimes and then you have to put alot of water or if it has a thin base at the botom of the base then you can conclude that it could be unstable,etc etc ( hope you get my point,ask if you don't)

So ya do as allia said and have a look at that review and maybe a few others!!!

I would never order another hookah from hookah company just based on personal experience. I dont trust their quality control. I still order shisha from them, but had a horendous experience ordering a small hookah almost EXACTLY like that one earlier this year. What was supposed to be a little treat for myself turned into a joke..... on me:

First off, they gave me teh wrong hose.... was supposed to come with a mya hose but came with some cheap (and i mean CHEAP) bright red, ugly, stiff hose.

The stem didnt match the one pictured, was completely scratched up and dented, and was TOTALLY BLOCKED. Smoking from it would have been impossible (it was the exact stem in that picture u have posted) The tray on that particular stem doesnt fit snug. Its pure cheapness and shows.

The base (also the same type of base in the pic) is not hand blown but rather looked pieced together somehow and was so crooked and wobbly it would have also made smoking from it impossible.

Unless HookahCo completely changed their quality control and carefully inspect each item on their hookahs before shipping them to teh costumer, I could just never consider purchasing another hookah from them. Shortly after returning the hookah to them, I ordered a small egyptian from Social Smoke (around the same size) and although their price was a bit higher, their quality control didnt seem to be lacking and the extra goodies put a smile on my face =).

Perhaps the hookah I recieved from hookahco was a total fluke that doesnt happen to others, but 3 major things wrong with one small hookah doesnt exactly fill me with confidence in that lil hookah there.

You see precisely that is what you should be reading and trying to find. Personal experiences so that it does not happen again.....oh and I forgot to mention before also have a look in the vendor review section!

thanks for the insight mtbsolo. I live by Hookah Company so I plan to go in thier store and buy the hookah in person. I will carefully check the whole thing including stem and base for quality.

Looks like the product reviews on other HC hookahs (like the red sangrai) have been so-so. That small stem they use (on alot of the 21" hookahs) does not seem to be that great i guess.

Check the seal on it. Cover the tiny hole on the bottom that connects to the hose port, blow through the hose port, it needs to be perfectly tight.

I sell those pipes all the time. They're OK. If you're going in, upgrade to one of the new Khalil Maamon hoses. Edited July 18, 2007 by Sonthert

That was black stuff in the stem on the new KM Hafa's. Like a anti-rust/corrosion compound of some sort.

hmm egyptians (sp?) seem to pretty fine in functionality, also dont see any problems with it, looks pretty cool too

[Sonthert]

Of those two pictures, the top ones, the leather ones. The bottom ones are awful.
