Phunnel Bowl Or Super Chief Bowl?


Recommended Posts

I've never used the Super Chief before, but I love my phunnel bowl.

If you smoke Tangiers tobacco or think you might in the future, then I would go with the phunnel. Just make sure you get a mod to go with it for smoking non-Tangiers shisha. The mod is not required for non-Tangiers, but it does make it more enjoyable.

I did a good amount of research on the super chief, and the consensus seems to be more negative than positive.

Moreover, a phunnel bowl with a scalli mod will totally outmatch a superchief in every department from what I understand, with the exception that you need to use a bit more heat, although it will also help to regulate temperature allowing for much easier heat management.

I would recommend that you go with the MN glass phunnel.

Totally agree with gaia and the king with this one, Phunnel bowl with Scalli mod, its a great mod with a great bowl, and its hand blown by a glass blower for what 30 bucks? Its hand made!!!! Customize what colors you want when you place the order... cause i know you will! wink.gif

well all i have now is a small and medium tangiers phunnel and mod. That is all i have used to date and smokes very well with all shisha. However, I just ordered a small MNH glass funnel and a medium super chief. Should be in before the weekend so hopefully i can get a review up. And according to eric, you can pack the super chief just like a regular bowl when using tangiers.

I think the common misconceptions with the superchief is people don't know how to use it.
Basically the Superchief bowl was designed for people that like to smoke tangiers and also other brands. Your probably thinking wait a second I can do this with the phunnel... yes this is true but the superchief allows you to pack the tangiers all on top of the bowl until you fill it up while it also allows you to pack much less of another brand shisha on the outer rim of the bowl than you would normally have to with a phunnel...

Thats why home-made mods exist (like scallis recent shisha saver mod) to let you use less shisha when your using starbuzz for example in a phunnel bowl... with the superchief you dont need any mods to use less shisha. Edited by RayVer

I have both a phunnel and a superchief bowl. Honestly the superchief smokes great I don't really notice any difference between the bowls except maybe the duration of the session. The superchief does allow you to pack smaller bowls which I think is great when I'm smoking with just myself or another person. Its always smoked great for me and if you dont want to use large amounts of tobacco each time you smoke then I think the superchief would be good for you. But if your always smoking in groups get the phunnel + mod to have longer sessions.

The super chief smokes great, but I find it to be quite top heavy, it tips when I am setting up a bowl, and because of its weight, it falling over equals chips in the bowl. Its a good bowl, but you have to be damned careful with it.

*Edit*
Not to mention, like the funnel bowl, its glaze looks beautiful. Edited by Geiseric

I actually started doing a video review of the superchief but I was trying to show cut scenes of an entire session (almost 2 hours) and in the middle had to leave to attend something. I had ordered these studio lights for my videos but they came with a missing part and the stupid company told me I had to return the entire thing instead of them just sending me the missing part. If the lights to arrive soon I'll just make the video as I've been doing with the other reviews.

Having never used
The Super Chief bowl at all,
I cannot comment.

My phunnel was great.
It was a favorite of mine
But it's in pieces.


Akkbar, you're superb.
I am digging this haiku,
Keep posting this way.

I'm smoking a bowl,
Of Lemon-Mint-Mojito.
Tonic is alright.
