gunsboy Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I am looking to buy a new hookah.I already bought this MYA before. I do not like it that much. It just feels like the airflow is not as good as I expected it to.Red Chrome Bohemian Crystal Narghilehhttp://www.myasaray.com/store/item.asp?ITE...EPARTMENT_ID=47I also bought a Taqseem Stargate Rotator that smoked really good but had major rust issues.I had a bunch of No-Name Egyptian hookahs for years that smoked really good but they died few years back.Now, I mainly use a small metal and wood Egyptian Gozza ($3 worth). It is by far the best smoke of all of the above. But it is hard to use outdoors because it has a balancing issue because the base is raised off the ground.I am looking at those two hookahs, but I just feel that they are a little overpriced for Egyptian hookahs. When I was on a trip to Syria few years back, I saw many hookahs that look very similar to KM for $30-$60.Anyone with any comments on those or do you suggest any another model or even manufacturer. This one will be mainly for outdoors use.Khalil Mamoon Ice 31"http://www.thehookah.com/khalil-mamoon-small-ice-31.htmlKhalil Mamoon 1 Hose Trimetal 29"http://www.thehookah.com/khalil-mamoon-1-h...rimetal-29.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuburbanSmoker Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 First question, with the mya were you using a mya hose?second. you wont find a km in the states for under 75 unless its used. if your looking for a cheaper alternative that will still preform get an MZ.I perosnally own a tri metal and it smokes like a train. i you decide thats what you want, you wont be dissappointed.

MechAnt Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Take a look at the last page of hookahcompany's site. They have a Trimetal for cheaper and a KM for $70. Check it out.I recommend the Trimetal cause I have it and it's amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinite Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I'd get the Trimetal, it's the higher quality of the two.I've read posts from people who have gone to the Khalil Mamoon shop in Egypt, and the hookahs there are $10-$20. As soon as they're exported to the US, the price raises by a factor of 5 or 6 at least. thehookah.com is a little bit more expensive than most, but you're not going to find a Khalil Mamoon hookah in the US for under $50. Check out www.hookahjohn.com and www.gothookahs.com too.Also, Magdy Zidan is a high quality brand of Egyptians. They're also cheaper than KM.

I really need something with good airflow. Egyptians must have good lungs . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heart of Lion KM's, if my memory serves me correctly, are economy KM's made out of cheaper material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also do recommend MZ if you want an excellent hookah for under $75. Check out gothookahs.comhttp://shop.gothookahs.com/category.sc?categoryId=11MZ's elsewhere are rather overpriced.
