anddy Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Widow Hookah on HookahHookahI passed by that and I was thinking about buying it. This is going to be my first hookah. Has anybody bought this and can anybody tell me if this is good or not?Does the size of the hookah really matter much? I don't want to buy a 9 incher and have it suck or not have good clouds. Also, does HookahHookah only take credit or can I order with a debit card?Please I need an answer quick because I am trying to buy a hookah and have it arrive by next week. If someone can suggest/recommend another hookah then that would be great too! Edited August 21, 2007 by anddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ioannisds Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 NO! Spend a little more and get a good quality, single-hose Egyptian instead. Any of the Khalil Mamoun hookahs at pimpyourhookah.com would be a good choice. Hookah Company has a couple too, but it seems like their service has come into question lately. Social Smoke has great quality Egyptians as well. Do not waste your money on the Widow. They are a pain in the ass to get smoking correctly, and will ruin your enjoyment because of the struggle. Get a good Egyptian for your first. You could be falling down drunk when you set it up, and it will still smoke well. And Hookah Hookah... meh. Do a search on them too.

anddy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 oh crap. It took too long for any answers and I just went ahead and bought it. Do you think I would be able to call in and cancel the order? Wow, I should've been a little more patient.As for the no ebay, I'm glad you said that because I was really thinking about buying one off of ebay. Why no ebay, can I ask?Well I'm going to try to call them up and see if I can cancel the order. Can someone show me to a hookah that they would recommend? The reason that one caught my eye was because it was inexpensive, and all the stuff it came with. I'm really not looking to spend that much money.Also, can someone tell me specifically what is wrong with the widow?, in case I end up not being able to cancel it.

Why no ebay, can I ask?when it comes to buying a hookah, most people here will agree that it is best to purchase a quality product from a reputable vendor. there are many vendors that have reviews on this forum. do some research and choose the vendor that best suits your needs.when it comes to ebay, you just never know what you're gonna get.

anddy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 How about the pumpkin hookahs from hookahlife? Are hookahs under 12" even worth buying? And I'm still wondering what exactly is wrong with the widow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm still wondering what exactly is wrong with the widow.dont get the pumpkin. it is exactly what the price is; cheap.i was looking for a small hookah that was portable for when i drive or go to a friend's place and i came across the pumpkin for $22.99 at a local shop. i used it a few times (no more than 10 times) and washed it after every use. then i discovered rust coming out of the stem where the hose goes in when i flushed water through it. i have retired that unit and ordered a mya qt as a replacement.

anddy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Well I was nicely recommended a Mya QT off of hookahlife so I'm thinking about buying that. I have seen quite a few people around here with it and they look satisfied, I think. What does everybody think about that choice.I just wanted to say thanks to all the people here helping me out with the hookah scene. I've tried other forums but this seems to be the most helpful and responsive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allia22 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 The bases have been sucking total balls lately. You have been warned by the Anti Mya Force One. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anddy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Oh great. I guess there's no way for me to find a quality hookah at the price range I am standing in. Would you mind elaborating? What is wrong with the base? Is it that "thin bottom" thing that I read about in the reviews? That shouldn't be a big problem, if I was careful, should it?I'm new so I would really appreciate any feedback right now. I just wanted to know if you guys can give me a reason instead of just pointing out that it is bad. But for what you said Allia, I'm going to assume you are talking about the bottom of the base being thin. That shouldn't be that much of a problem should it?

Calcartman Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I cant speak on new mya bases, but i will say my QT has been knocked over plenty of times without problems, and been banged against sinks and walls.The widow hookah, as with the pumpkin, is cheap and poorly built. One of my friends bought a widow and the hose tasted like rust on the first smoke.I'm not sure what your price range is, but for 50-75$ you should be able to get a very very decent smoking, though small, hookah.Mya Acrylics are also quite nice (though slightly more expensive and bigger), and they're hard to break.A K-M egyptian will be nice as well, but they are quite tall.

anddy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Well I guess I'll just buy the Mya QT from HookahLife for now, and then buy whatever coals and shisha I need later. Thanks for all the responses, they really helped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
