ImLow78 Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) OK guys, Here is my Dilemma! I just (within the last 3 weeks) bought a Syrian 3 hose chiller from Hookah-Shisha and I really luv it. I never thought I would enjoy smoking but I had to quit smoking (Well you know), So I bought it as a replacement.But now I'm wanting a smaller one hose hookah that I can personally use without having to clear out the kitchen to clean it after I've finished smoking. When I have friends over I don't mind bringing out the big boy but most of the time I smoke by myself.I really like the Chiller hookah it seems to cool the smoke very well. The only three things that I would like to have in a smaller hookah is for it to smoke as smooth and as cool as my Syrian,that it be very well made and easy to store away.I'm leaning towards a Mya hookah. I can't decide on the Mya Bambino, Mya Razo,Mya Chic,Mya Diva or going with Mod Micron,Mod Small Gunmetal Stargate. I'm also up for any other suggestions you guys have. My max size would be say 20" tall "but i might fudge alittle on this " Please forgive me for starting another "What should I buy" Thread but This will be more then likely my last hookah for a while and I want to make sure its what I'm looking for and it last me for a while..Here is a picture of my Syrian and my puppy Xavier.Thanks Again!Shannon Edited December 27, 2007 by ImLow78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahhhdam Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) I don't have a Mya, but from what I hear a Mya QT might suit your needs. Its small and compact and easy to clean, everyone swears by them.Edit: but I agree with merchant, why not get a smaller Syrian. I would IMO, just my .02 Edited December 27, 2007 by ahhhdam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1966 Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 That Hookah is pretty sweet. I am going to get a Syrian also. I have a MYA Bambino and I really like it. It is easy to set up and clean. I did a review on it, check it out in the review section. There are couple other reviews as well.http://www.hookahforum.com/index.php?showtopic=8525 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canon Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 id go with the QT, bambino, or the razi. all are small, compact, and quick to clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PirateNinja415 Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 stay away from the micron, my friend has one and it really doesn't smoke that well. and i heard a lot a ppl have had problems with the base. you can get a much nicer hookah for the money you'd have to shell out for that hookah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waterboi Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I own a Bambino. so of course my vote is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathuv Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 PERSONALLY, I don't like the look of the QT or the Bambino and since i have several potential "hookah droppers" in my house (mother, cats,siblings..) I've decided to go with a MYA Odyssey from H-S. gotta love the freebies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entrailsgalore Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 You shouldn't be sorry. Thats what this forum is all about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1966 Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 That looks like a decent Hookah. I think you will be happy with it. Yup you gotta love the freebies from HS. The Bambino has a very hearty glass base. I am very happy with it. I do not know to much about the acrylics though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubernerd83 Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I have a MYA Diva (one hose), and I've been quite happy with it. Smokes well, easy to clean, compact. My only compaint is that they named it the "Diva". Also, it doesn't seem to clear as well as my old Egyptian, but I never really find it necessary to do so.

My dog hears the bubbling and looks at me like my daddy is crazy. Nice hookah and cool dog. Bubba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalSoil Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 i hear too many weird things on stargates and no idea about the micron...Mya's hookahs are solid pipes.They have fixed the glass problem from what i can tell, i bought a Chic a month or so after i heard the last complaint on the vortex's (same glass type) and i havent had any problems. i'm careful when changing water temeratures just in case though. seems to be pretty thick.The only problem i have with my Chic is that it doesnt purge well. everything else is golden!I would say look at all those Mya's you listed and pick your favorite!

ZenSilk Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) Bambino. That's easy.VERY easy to clean. it has a wide common chamber, so you just stick a brush in there. Or your fingers with a paper towel. Whatever floats your boat. The base is very stable. Edited December 27, 2007 by ZenSilk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImLow78 Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 Well I broke down and bought the Bambino.

Snoopy1966 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Good choice. You will like it. What color did you get? The sky blue is sweet but it was out of stock when I ordered. I know sky blue sounds....but it is a very good color for that Hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
