Battle Of The Minis - Mya Qt Vs Hobo Hookah

[jerrysalem]

My opinion on this...

I bought a Hobo Hookah a few months ago, and, because so many people raved about it, got a Mya QT last week. So, finally, now I can try them both and give my opinions.

I have no vested interest in either, I am simply Mr Joe Average Hookah Guy.

My favorite is Hobo Hookah. I am simply going to say that I get more smoke out of the Hobo, it's more fun to draw, it's cooler to have it's 'any bottle (except a wine bottle...hello guys we need a design change here)' mystique, very easy to clean, and the base doesn't wobble like the QT does. I'm surprised how annoying that is, to have to have a rubber base for it, but for me it's a lack of good design and it's unlike Mya to be cheap, but the base while thick enough, is cheesy and cheap IMHO.

For my money, the QT is a waste, but that's considering I have a Hobo Hookah for fun and sometimes travel, and a Mya Gyro for beauty, great smoking (well, with the phunnel I just got it REALLY makes a big difference, well worth the price, just go get one), ease of cleaning (stainless all around including in the shaft), and quality.

I took my Mya Gyro out for the first time today, once for lunch at one friends' house, then at my cousin's who first introduced me to Hookahs a few years ago. Both loved the experience, and I told them the phunnel's cool smoke made the difference-if you don't fill it to the top (and who needs to, it holds so much) you have a little space which prevents the shisha burn that puts a damper on one's experience.

That's my two cents, your mileage may vary (YMMV).

Your QT base wobbles? Mine's flat and sturdy. While my KM and my Syrian are both a bit wobbly, my QT doesn't budge.

YEa never had a problem wwith the base on my QT. The issue with smoke, There is no dif in the size of the hookah in how much smoke it produces, thats all to do with heat management.

My QT base is also flat and sturdy. Although I agree with Jerry - the quality is poor, there's parts of the base where the glass is quite thin. But overall I think my QT is a brilliant hookah.

Jerry, how do you find smoking without the use of a purge value? Surely there must be times when the shisha gets burnt etc, and you want to get rid of that taste asap

i'm getting a hobo for one of my friends and ill probably buy two (one for me )

Another friend of mine has a QT and i have a Chic and they both rock (like they are awesome, not unstable) and the glass is fine on both of them.
