Stuie Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 For years I smoked some cheap hookah I got from a friend. Then I got a 3 hose pharoh I have been smoking for about 8 years. It's time for a new one!Help me pick one out! Your opinionI was looking not to break the $200 mark, Large (around 25-30") and 3 hoses. What I want most is awesome smoke cause that's what it's all about! I was debating a Mya, Saraha, Kahlil...and a few more. I was looking at the sahara infinity but all the small sahara's have bad reviews of the stems rusting outs. Looking at Mya Obelisk but man that is really pushing my budget. So please let me know what to look at, your best hookah, and what to avoid. Thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austinthecity Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 don't get a sahara, my friend has one and it sucks.khalil only makes 1hose.MZ makes a 3hose pharaoh, but you already had one.If you want a style change, go with a MYA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I noticed to difference between Devil's Playground and Hookah-Shisha. HS comes with adjust cloisonnes shaft and matching cloisonnes hoses. Those are great, but the DP is definetly an option to look at!Thanks and keep them coming guys! Edited March 11, 2008 by Stuie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechAnt Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 KM (Khalil Mamoon) and MZ (Magdy Zidan) are the only well known egyptian brand hookahs. They are both great pipes... MZ is just better in many ways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathuv Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 i agree with the above posts. if you're looking for a decently priced, great hookah go for the KM or if you're willing to dish out a bit more cash, go for a mya, they look really nice if you want a modern looking hookah and according to other members they smoke well too.

Switch Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Any Mya, if you are looking for inexpensive, get the QT or Bambino, they are small but smoke great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some people get a hookah it's great but then after a month it falls apart. Like my Pharoh is great! I will keep it still as a back up or extra for a hookah party! I appreciate the link!

MagicHookahs Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) Just a thing to keep in mind, be weary of the lack of purge ability with MYA hookahs, especially 3 hose.-And for that type of $$ I personally would go with something with a lot more culture and creativity than a MYA.

Scoop Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 get a syrian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oolatec Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 No need to spend $200. You can get an incredible pipe for quite less than $100 even. KM, Magdy Zidan, or a Syrian. Personally, I'd look into getting a solid brass Syrian... typically their stems come apart in a few pieces for easy cleaning/transport. Very solid rigs.
