ksufantasy Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 After looking all over for several days I think I have finally decided on which hookah I'm going to buy from what supplier. I am eyeing the 29" Scorpio from thehookah.com. However, I just realized that the 4 hose is only $10 more than the 3 hose. Normally I'd jump on something like that, but I thought I'd ask some more experienced people. There will definitely be at least 2 or 3 people smoking on it at once, but is it bad if the 4th hose isn't used very frequently? I think I'm starting to convince myself to get the 3 hose one. I'd still like input though! Oh, and you probably can, but I still want to make sure--- can you take off hose covers? Thanks!

ZenSilk Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 (edited) No. Think about it. Why do you need 4 hoses on a rotating hookah?......Yeah, you don't. Ditch the rotator. Or get one with one hose. Any more than 1 hose on a rotator makes the rotation aspect pointless, and they are just charging 10 bucks a hose-port.Ohh, don't get the 3 or 2 hose either.Also, from what you've said, i would reccomend a Mya. The ports can come off and on when needed or not, and it is auto-seal so you don't need to worry about plugging the unused ports.

PirateNinja415 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 +1 to what ZenSilk said. It really doesn't make sense to get a more than 1 hose rotator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyt Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I think H-S has a six hose rotating hookah, kind of pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksufantasy Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 I'm having such a hard time with this. I've been looking for 3 hosed hookahs for days and I found one I liked, but I either couldn't trust the website or it wouldn't go to the cart, so I had to forego it. Now, I've found one I like that is a 3 hose rotator... Maybe not practical, but I can't find anything else I like. Decisions decisions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guyt Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 You could buy a three hose rotator if you really really like the way it looks, but don't buy it thinking it has any practical aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guyt Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 If you really want an Egyptian H-S has some pretty decent ones. And you can get a pretty sweet one for less than 100 so you can also buy some tobbaco and coals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

likespaceships Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Go to hookah-shisha.com and check out the selection of 3-4 hose egyptians they have. It makes more sense to buy a multiple hose egyptian in stead of a multiple hosed rotator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
