mattarios2 Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 OK, so I spoke with george from thehookah , he said they are washable, they have contacted KM multiple times and KM claims that they are in fact washable. So I told george, if I find any reason or belief that it is rusting, or shit starts to come out of the hose, or someone on here finds out information proving it is not washable, if they would just send me a KM washable and call it even (seeing the pro is 8 or 9 bucks more than the KM washable) and he said sure no problem. So I will keep everyone posted as I will wash it once a week or so and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattarios2 Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Anyway someone can get in touch with eric and see if he can upload the pics of the cut open KM Pro hose, I want to use these pics to send to thehookah.com and see if they will refund me. A hose that has metal (non SS) metal coils in them is not washable in my eyes. I want to prove to them they are not washable and get my damn money back.Technically I guess you could say it is washable, but by being washable you should be able to wash it without the item becoming damaged in the process.Edit: I called george back and told him the guy eric who makes tangiers had cut one open and had found metal in the hose that wasn't SS. He said no problem what do you want instead to make up for the hose because they don't like to dissapoint people. So I was thinking maybe to get the KM washable but I also heard that those had metal in them as well. Maybe I'll just buy a hookah bag and some little goodies? What do you guys think?

Just because something is metal doesn't mean it's automatically going to rust. Does gold rust? Does silver? Those are two extreme ends of the spectrum, but they are metals and they don't rust. Inside every underwire bra is a metal wire. Not plastic coated, not galvanized and not stainless steel. Metal. They don't rust and they get washed (one would hope) everytime they're worn and I guarantee you as a 38-DDD with underwires that they don't rust. So just because something is metal, don't assume that if you wash it it's going to rust. Geezzzzzzzzzzzzzz............'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he is sending me a coupon to spend 29 dollars on their website...That's pretty damn cool if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After mixing berry then kashmir peach, then gingerbread to lemon etc. etc. the hoses smell pretty damn nasty imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
