Ooph Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 How does this Hookah smoke? I am buying this as a christmas present for on my friends. Do you think he will enjoy the smoke out of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1966 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hello,I just set up my Bambino for the first time. This little thing hits like a champ. I was really surprised. I cleaned it up really good. I caught a huge buzz on this thing. You can really draw in a huge freakin' hit. I am smoking Tangiers Blueberry now. YUMMY! I will post up a review in a little while.

Ooph Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Yea, thanks for the responses. If you saw his current hookah you might want to gouge your eyes out. He smokes out of a broken bowl...cracked stem...broken ash tray hookah lmao. I hope he takes care of this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Lol...ghetto hookah....It should do fine but should take more care of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1966 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Billy the sky blue is sweet. It was out of stock when I ordered mine. I got the Green one. Nice looking, but not as much as yours. I smoked only one 33mm and thats enough for me now. This thing just kicked my ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Its great though, especially with a Phunnel + Mod....damn the ammount of smoke I got! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaia.plateau Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 (edited) The Bamino is incredible, I'm actually smoking a bowl of lemon mint mojito out of it right now. The bowl is durable as all fuck - I'm 95% certain that if I chucked it as hard as I could against my giprock wall, it would go straight through and come out without a scratch on it. Short of a wrecking ball your friend is not going to be able to mess this hookah up.I haven't smoked out of the QT, but according to many reviews, it and the Bamino both hit as well as any pipe under 25 inches. It hits better than my 28" Syrian. My only complaint about it is the common chamber... it certainly contributes to the aesthetic appeal of the bambino, but if the QT outsmokes it it's because of the chamber difference. I went with the green, but my second choice would be the grey model. I highly recommend this pipe.

Snoopy1966 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I just ordered my first batch of Exoticas and a small and meduim Phunnel bowl and Tangiers Kashmir Apple from HCI wish my large Phunnel would fit on my Bambino. I want to try the Schnozzberry tonight. Maybe I will pack a Bambino and then my Eygptian with the Phunnel. I hope the naturals live up to the reviews from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZenSilk Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I got myself a Bambino, it is amazing for how small it is. I was a little setched at first.. but this sing is solid and smokes perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Would you guys reccomend the Qt or the Bambino for a desktop hookah? How is the smoke from mini hookahs, are they cooler than tall ones or are they a bit warmer due to the length the smoke travels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZenSilk Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 haha, the Bambino for sure. Qt glass is weak as we all know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waterboi Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I love my Bambino. I had a QT and returned it. I didnt like the base. The Bambino seems like better glass and smokes very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twang Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hmmm... I love my Bambino, but... I had two bases break, the glass is really thin at the bottom. So I got a QT base for it, which has held up way better, and looks better in my opinion. Sorry about the pic quality, it was taken with my phone.

Snoopy1966 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I added some electrical tape for now. I found a gromet that was not used and that seems to work good. It looks silly with the large Phunnel on the Bambino. The bowl is almost as tall as the Base But the smoke, that is not silly....simply amazing for a little Hookah.

Zildjian Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 i havent smoked from either yet, but both seem really strong in terms of glass. btw that picture is a bambino stem on a qt base......the bambino base is spikey n shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalSoil Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 if you cant find the right grommet but the bowl will fit on there without one just no seal grab a strip of paper towl and dampen it a little and use that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
