thejoshman Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 (edited) Yeah I have the same cobra, and i hated it. SO i got some KM hoses. VERY HAPPY. get a hose with no metal on it. Edited December 11, 2007 by thejoshman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elky Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 (edited) i dont know much about the cobra hoses other than they aren't washable. If you want a hose that wont rust though, spend the extra buckas and get a Nammor, they seem to be the most popular right now and they are fully washable, thus rust free.wow did I get beaten to that!

Sdzier2 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 (edited) I have had the hookahshisha (second one) cobra hose and I can tell you they are great. I got mine used from a hookah bar with a hookah for an extremely cheap price. I can tell you right now that you shouldnt have any problems with the second type as long as you clean it properly. I had mine for over a year and never got any bad taste out of it. hope my advice helps! Edited December 11, 2007 by Sdzier2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sdzier2 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Well I mean I would just run water through them and then just make sure it dried quickly. Just make sure nothing is left inside of it that can corrode the hose or simply leave a bad taste for the next time you use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garykainz Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 i don't feel i need to repeat my opinion on cobra hoses. it's been stated at least 2 or 3 times in other cobra hose related threads. needless to say, it's a negative opinion. get a nammor. not only is it as big as a garden hose, its the easiest thing to clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a washable mya hose that came with my Mya. i will probably like the Nammor a lot better, but i don't think i can live without a functional cobra. there's just something about it. iono, that's just me. thank you all for your help and advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camelflage Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 i've not gotten a cobra from hookahkings, but i've had several from hookah-shisha that lasted a good year. they're going to rust, but for what they cost its not painful to replace them every so often.

everydayshisha Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 They do rust after a couple of months but what can you expect from a 10-dollar-product. No hose is worth if you consider you can get a Nammor for $25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likespaceships Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Just invest in a KM Hose or a nammor. You'll get a way better smoke with them compared to the cobra hoses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 okay, i found the thread on how to make your own hose. http://www.hookahforum.com/index.php?showt...20hose&st=0i think i'll be doing that with one of my old cobra hoses. i think that may be wiser than buying another type of cobra from an different company.
