I'd pass on that and spend $100 on a well known brand. You'll get much better results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejoshman Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 looks like a random chinese made. enjoy for 6 months then itll rust totally through and you can literally snap the whole thing in half with minimal force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Way to be supportive.Ya, i dont think its chinese though. I've seen similar around here. Just a no name middle eastern pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuscani Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 its like the "walmart brand" of the hookah world... and way too many hoses imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charley Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I am pretty sure its Indian. I bought a cheap no name hookah from a local store. not the same one but the box it came in had 4 different pics on the side and one matched that only it was blue. the box did not give a company just made in India on the bottom of the box.the paint on my vase was 2 tone red and black. red at the bottom and black at the top and all the black washed off after about 2 months. it was really weird not a scratch on it then bam i ran in under the water for a minute to wash the outside off and the black paint just instantly flaked and washed off.

mushrat Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Ive seen similar ones at the local shops here. To be honest the nice Idian guy saw you coming and took pretty serious advantage of you even for $100. But if it smokes and you are happy with it that screw what we think.

obeyfluffy Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 thank you guys for your commentsi would rather know the truth than being funneled crap,but i have it now and cant return it, so we'll just see how it isi smoked it the other night and it smoked pretty well actually,the only downside being the faint taste of rubber that will hopefully come off once i clean itupon further inspection, i noticed that AGER is written on the vase.im doing some research on them now, but if you guys know anything about them, let me know.

MechAnt Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Hell, Ager is pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryno Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I own one Ager for sure, and one that I guessed was, but after seeing some, I dont think it is, I think its just a nice Syrian... They smoke fine. Did anyone else look at the catalog? Are Ager and Nakhla the same company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Morgan Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 As long as it smokes well thats the important thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delSol_si Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Just pop a phunnel bowl on there and put a nice, wide gauge hose on there and you should be fine! My roommate bought a no name chinese looking hookah similar to that a long time ago. It smoked ok, but then we put my KM Supreme leather wrapped hose on there and it smoke like a champ. His had the metal grommet where you put the stem in and give it about a 45 degree turn to seal it. The grommet broke off, but we just taped it back together, then later glued it and it still works fine.I think the guy who sold it to you f-ed you over, but at least you have a hookah now! Seriously get a new hose though, you won't regret it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obeyfluffy Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 i just smoked it again with some friends, to get all 4 hoses going.im really pleased with itthe only downside i could find was that it could get harder to inhale when alot of the hoses were going at once.but even so, i think this hookah will last me at least 3 months until i move into college.

TexasHookah Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 People definitely have really strong opions of Chinese made hookahs. But if the hookah is taken care of well, cleaned after every use and properly maintained no matter where it's made it will last. My first hookah was a chinese hookah that lasted for over 2.5 years before I upgraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
