Esoj Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 I was just wondering since I did a search on Mistuba and got not results.... What do you guys think about small Mitsubas? Or just Mitsuba overall? I like the color of two one being a cherry red glass and the other black although when hit against the light it looks like a rather dark and beautiful red. The mitsubas I saw were small im tihnking 17' s. Well hope to see from you guys soon, Im thinking of possibly getting one for a friends birthday. Thanks for any replies. Good day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Where did you see this hookah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathazar Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Those look like Sultan Hookahs. I should know, because I had one exactly like the red one. The accessories may indeed be Mitsuba, but I'm pretty sure the hookah is made by Sultan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esoj Posted July 24, 2005 Author Share Posted July 24, 2005 would you say its a good hookah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 I agree that those look like sultans. I am not sure about the "mitsuba" hose. It looks like a standard wrapped leather hose. If you like the price go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathazar Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 The Sultan was a very good hookah until the ribbing around the rubber stem grommet started to wear-out, making the hookah no longer airtight. But, I guess the simple answer to that is to get a new grommet. Aside from the grommet issue, the Sultan was a very pleasurable hookah. I got mine locally for $40. But it came with a REALLY cheap hose. If I were you, I would head on over to HookahHookah.com and buy yourself a couple of their Synthetic leather hoses. They're washable and they're made by MYA. It's by FAR the best hose I've ever used. It's durable, the metal tip is made of polished stainless steel, and they're just a GREAT pleasure to smoke with. They cost $10 each over at HookahHookah and IMO are worth EVERY penny. If you take care of them and wash them out a couple times a month, I would imagine these hoses will last you many years, whereas non-washable hoses will last you about a month or two if you're lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esoj Posted July 25, 2005 Author Share Posted July 25, 2005 You guys rock! Thanks A LOT for the input. Happy smoking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCulture Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Mitsubas and Sultans are CHINESE. I've smoked a taller one at a lounge, they smoke well, but I definitely have something against Chinese hookahs. I've got a 34-inch Egyptian and I love it. It gives new meaning to a phrase which I hate very much: "Keep it real." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
