4d1ct3d Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Hey there people.So, as the topic description says, I just bought a KM stem for a vase I have laying around. It's originally from a 22" pipe sold on hookahshop.co.uk. They call it "The Fountain".I haven't recieved it yet, it is making it's way from England to Portugal, so I'll get it before the weekend probably.Here is the hookahshop's site pic for the pipe: I know some of the smaller KM's are known for not having the normal good built quality in most KMs (the HOL for instance). This one however, from analyzing the picture only (as I haven't recieved it yet), looks pretty solid to me.I got only the stem for 18 GLP - around 28 USD.What do you guys think of this piece? I'm really hopping it will meet my expectations and provide great smoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidal105 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Hey there,My brother brought back an almost identical stem to that one from the KM factory warehouse in cairo. I found it to feel quite solid and heavy for its size with decent welding and construction. The airflow is really good and no complaints there, but my large KM is a bit better in that respect. Just be careful with this hookah if ur using one of the larger, heavier KM hoses. Because of the way ths hose outlet on the stem is shaped (facing out rather than up) it's easy to knock the hookah over if someone pulls the hose a little bit. I've personally been using a lighter Mya hose on this hookah without any issues. Good luck with it!Nidal105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mNWA786 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 i just recieved my fountain by khalil mamoon. i think its excellent for the price i paid and is easily worth the money. its the cheapest khalil mamoon pipe i have seen.the pull is really easy, probably due to the leather hose, which some people think is ugly but it provides great consistent smoke. the clouds were consistenyl big throughout the session and i highly recommend the pipe.

cxc5120 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Yea I just got my Km and it came with the rainbow hose, not a big fan : ( but I could always buy a different hose for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunatly my order had a delay and was only shipped yesterday, 10 days after I made the order So, I haven't recieved it yet but I'm really looking forward to recieve it.Can you post some pics of the pipe? Showing the width of the downstem, hose and purge ports, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mNWA786 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 here are some of the pics, i will upload some more in a moment. sorry i know they are really bad but i couldn't take any better pictures. the only complaint i have for this pipe is that the flavour bowl doesnt quite fit on the stem tightly, howver the pipe is still amazing.

AmunRa Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 For me, the smaller KM pipes are very hard to find. But the ones I have seen do not seem to be lacking in quality as you mentioned. Being that they are hand made, I suppose there is a bad apple every now and again.It looks solid to me! I hope it works out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 hopes it better than my MZ I bought that size. Downstem didn't go down far enough for my taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
