I was eyeing it for about two weeks trying to figure out if I could afford it or not (I'm a poor college student). I went down to the smoking lounge with my roommate to smoke his hookah and decided "it is time to order." I get on the site to order and it is gone!! Just my luck...

Just my luck...hookahjohn.com and gothookahs.com has them in stock i believe.I was looking at gothookahs.com, but they don't carry the phunnel bowl that I want or the hose that I wanted. Plus, I was bummed when I found the hookah I wanted with the hose I wanted on the site and then messaged the guy to make sure it was going to come with that specific hose and he told me to let him know exactly which hookah it was and he would get back with me on it. I told him and then he just said, well if it is in stock then you will, if not, you will get something else (and of course, I looked in the accessories section and the hose that looked like it was out of stock, so that did me little good, I like knowing what I am getting before spending money on it.I then looked at hookahjohn and he is out of stock on it. He has another one (new model) that is a bit shorter and a bit more expensive I am kinda thinking about going with, I sent him a message and am waiting on a response. I really don't want to get one that NO ONE else has gotten before and tried because I don't have the extra money to be experiementing, I need something I KNOW will work. I am waiting to see if he has used it himself or not. http://www.hookahjohn.com/product.sc?categ...p;productId=109 <--that is what I am looking at, you bastards better not order these until they are out of stock before I get one if I decided to go with it!! joking! What do you guys think about that one? Bit expensive, but I would rather get a good quality one that will last then an el-cheap-o that breaks in a year or doesn't smoke worth a crap.

According to George KM hoses are top of the line, most specificaly the Ultimate. So do are there no good hookah hoses out there? I hear people bashing Nammors like crazy on here and now I hear you bash KM. I am not bashing you or anything, I really appreciate your critical comment. I think critical comments are the best way to decide what to get and what not to get. What about Razan? Or I should ask, what do you find to be the best hose out there?
