Hobbs Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Very fine looking pipe with a fair price tag. If you buy one you should most def do a review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jellywerker Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I really am starting to prefer the styling that Syrians tend to have, what with the geometric rigidity and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soldier92 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I almost bought that exact hookah as my first hookah but my internet wouldn't load the payment page so I found an egyptian off H-S, almost wish I had waited for it to work, it's an awesome hookah.

Scoop Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 it looks very thin and lightweight. ive seen what seems like the same or very similar in person and thought it was a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikemyusername Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) i question the hose port myself.in the detail it says its a thin and lightweight stainless, i'd be a little on the cautious side.see if ali baba will let you play with one thats not set up.

Tuscani Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 its a nice looking pipe, but it does looks sort of flimsy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersubby Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 yeah i asked the people at the lounge if i could buy one from them. but they were already used. but those were heavy and extremely sturdy i might go this week so il take a pic and post it here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeHT Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I don't think it looks flimsy. Hose, maybe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippo_Master Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 It looks really light. You'd be better off with something heavier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpimpitox Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 That Syrian looks badass! While it may look flimsy as a Syrian owner I can tell you that they are quite durable. mine lasted about 3 years before the air valve came loose. The only issue i had with it was it was a bitch to get out the stem out of the base when i was preppin a new session. Simple solution was when your done smoking just take the stem out of the base and put it away. Not a bad price for a beastly hookah. if i had xtra cash id def pick 1 up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srawas89 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 That Syrian does look beautiful. if the stem seems like its good quality than go ahead and buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maadman05 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 the syrian stems in my experience get rusty and dirtier faster as compared to the egyptian counterparts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Most Syrians like that are polished steel, so they will rust in short order. I think its worth about $30, tops. Hookah Companyused to sell ones about that size for $20 and got nothing but complaints, so George just finally threw them away. I had some friends who bought a 48" in Amman for $8.

Hippo_Master Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Looks like a POS.It's going to be very light, and rust very easily, as easily as accidentally spilling water on the finish or just smoking normally. It's going to look like shit when you get it. The welds will be hideous.The purge valve will come to you with a rusted bearing.There's not even an ounce of brass on that thing.And, finally, it's from Smoking-Hookah, home of the Spider-man and American Eagle hookah. These facts alone should make you turn your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
