Have A Few Ideas, But I Could Use Some Advice...


Recommended Posts

Hey there guys, i have been a member on here for about a week now, and i have been checking out vendors sites pretty much all week, and havent really found anything that catches my eye completely. I am a college student, so having a hookah with 3 or more hoses is a necessity. We love having sushi/hookah parties!

So here is my first question, can you make any hookah a 3 or 4 hosed hookah? I see a ton of hookahs that i really like, but they are usually just one hosed. And that is not an option. Could i convert it easily? Or do i have to buy something that comes with 3 or 4 hoses from the manufacturer?

My second issue is about quality. I Dont want this thing to not be air tight, not to hit right, stem break, ect...I dont mind spending a little extra for something that will survive a college house.

So here are my choices for far:

Coming in at #1 is the 28" Ballerina from TheHookah.com. What i like about this hookah is its $130 and you get 750g of tabacco, hard case, coals, and bunch of other little accesories. There is also free shipping AND you get 5% off if your a student. So, the price is pretty good. I know the hoses are cheap, and im planning on purchasing some better ones when i buy the hookah. What i dont like about this hookah is that its out of stock. Patience is a virtue right???



#2 on my list is the Pharoah from Hookah-Shisha.com. What i like about this hookah is that its got that classic hookah style and it has 4 hoses. The Ballerina is kinda new age, which is cool, but its also nice to smoke from something a little more "Arab"



#3 is similar to the Pharoah, its from TheHookah.com and is called the Tangier 30". I like this hookah because its has four hoses and is pretty tall. I just dont think im sooo happy about the color. Orange is kinda odd.



Anyway, what are your guys thoughts? Am i headed in the right direction? Or are the pieces i picked out crap?

Can you guys think of any other cool 3-4 hosed hookahs that are under $120+-? Its not imparative that they come with tabacco, but it would be nice.

thanks,

Adam

I'm hesitant about any vendor that sells hookahs, condoms, dice, and something called "great". Edited by gaia.plateau

Speaking as a frequent host of hookah parties in a college house... you might find it a steeper challenge for your house to survive your hookah. I've had easily a dozen burn marks from my last 4 parties, but the only damage ever done to my pipes has been 1 broken bowl.

as far as good hookahs goes..

here are some good hookahs you can get for a good price that are 3-4 hoses.

i think the top one would match you the best. i believe its the best out of the 3 and a very good price.

I like the last one, but you can probably find something just as good for less money.

You can add hoses to certain models by attaching adapters, but that isn't always possible. I don't think having more than 2 hoses really adds anything, though, unless you have like 20 people trying to crowd one hookah. One on each side should be enough to pass around without things getting all tangled up since having two or more people pulling at once sucks anyway. If you find a single-hosed hookah you like, and the vendor confirms that an adapter would do the trick, I'd go that route.

As far as damage goes, drunk people are the biggest problem I've had with my hookahs at parties. They always seem to manage to knock them down, no matter how watchful I am.

-For the former, I only use my mini hookah at parties now. My 14" Mya can fit 2 large cobra hoses, and isn't as easy to knock over or damage compared to my 24" hookah from H-S.

-For the latter in my new apt. I'm going to try and find some sheet metal I can lay down while smoking. I've seen 4x8 sheets for sale for like $25, which'll probably be worth it if I can get some of my deposit back next time... Edited by Ralleac
