Yay! Another One Of These Posts!


Recommended Posts

They all look great! If they are same quality, I would pick the Blue Caravan simply on looks. Although I do like the second tray on the Al Fakher!

i only have experiance with the trimetal, ive heard the AF hookah isnt worth it but it is a beauty. as far as the stem goes on the trimetal a green scrubby pad makes it look brand new. there are small scratches on it and youll notice it from about 1-2" away, but it works.

Tri-Metal. Never smoked it but thats what I would go for If I was faced with these 3 decisions.


Put Al Fakher on the side for now. That is only their first Hookah, stick with a KM since they have been around for much, much longer.

Not saying that the AF Argeeleh is bad, just that they are still fairly new to making and producing Argeelehs.

Dont get me started on AF. I'll say they're all looks and no substance. Recently I've just found out something else to bitch about. The top of my AF 36 has a screw on top which holds the ash tray, so you put the ash tray on first, then this piece scews on top of the stem to hold it down. But the stupid thing is not air tight!!! I found out that without the screw piece, sucking through the hose and cover the top of the stem is fairly airtight, but with the screw on piece there a noticeable leak - i can hear bubbling! Would it have killed AF to provide a washer for the screw piece?? Mya's *always* provide a washer for all their hose adapters, purge-values and pretty much anything which has to be air tight!

Oh, but the good news is that I've brought a Mya base to stem grommet. This one:

I've replaced the bolloxs one that AF gave. Its SOOO much better! I still have to put some electrical tape underneath the grommet, but the Mya grommet has very large flanges so that it can accomodate the frakkin unsymmetric base opening. Yes, you heard me - the opening for the base is not circular and it causes havock with the seal. The AF seal is rubbish, the flanges are not very wide so you have to pack the underside of the grommet with lots of elec tape and then REALLY push the stem into the base, I mean with some SERIOUS force. But onces that done, it smokes ok (apart from the other air leaks).

Ok, enough of my crazy rantings, as you can tell, I'm not a happy bunny. I will someday come around to writing a proper review of my AF hookah with the aim of ruining that companies hookah bussiness! wallbash.gif
