Buying A Hookah Online?


Recommended Posts

i would stick with the brand names (km, mz, mya, etc). i got a rotator from HS (ive smoked them before and loved the way they functioned and dont mind the "leakyness" they supposedly have cause people are lazy). but the manufactured quality of them was off IMHO. kept being told that "o discoloration and corrosion on some parts is normal and doesnt effect it at all, it wont spread and it will be fine"... right, only issue with that is that im going to school for metal working and they try to tell me things that i know are false, what ever. they are swapping parts that were bad and broke. and frankly i can deal with the small issues it has because if they cant give me parts that work well ill just mod them.

at least order from a place that has good customer service and a good return policy but i would try to at least try them out before you get one or fine ones that have great reviews on other sites (your basicaly going to hear KM, MZ, and mya )

The best place to find this sort of information is in the vendor reviews section. Look at the larger threads, that will tell you the most popular ones, and read a few reviews to get an overall feel of how the community thinks about a vendor.

+1 to jez. Check the reviews.

I have purchased from a lot of retailers and they all have pros and cons and different stock. But once you find out what kind of hookah you want, finding a site is easy.

hookah shisha has a great selection, decent prices and ok service. they will fix issues but they have a fair amount of issues (should be pretty good now that the warehouse move is over but still).

MNhookah has great service and ships uber fast. great customer service, they fix issues when its not even their fault but their selection is not as extensive but not bad still

chronic hookah seems to have good responses from what ive heard just never used them.

Hookah Company for their absolutely insane selection in Egyptian hookahs. They have a lot of different types and a few brand names. I have one of the more inexpensive ones and couldnt be happier with it. Please look at these ones even if you do get a KM or MZ or Mya. Something unique is not a bad thing.

Minnesota Hookahs because of their incredible service. They have mostly Mya hookahs but you cant go wrong there.

Got Hookahs- They have really nice hookahs at markdown prices. Their service is really nice as well from what most have reported.

Nazar Hookahs- I dont think this guy gets enough business because he doesnt carry the fanboy selection (KM, MZ, Tangiers and Mya). He's a great guy and a nice vendor. I'm absolutely sure he'll do good by you if you give him a shot.

I ordered 2 ultimate hoses, a windcover, and coals today from HC around 12 Eastern time and it shipped out today .. That is order number 5 total from them with 0 problems, all 5 orders have shipped out same day ... I think you just got bad luck Frost.

On-topic ... what everyone else has said, they nailed it.
