New To Owning A Hookah


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I'm looking to buy a hookah for my house. It would be just for the house and we'd use it almost daily. I've been to hookah bars and what not but never owned one. So I'm wondering where i would buy it and what recommendations you guys might give. I've only really smoked off the realativley tall ones so i dont know what to expect from the mini's and the multiple hose ones. thanks for any help.

well you're going to have to narrow it down. do you want something modern or traditional? stainless, brass, or both? single hose or multiple? most people here are going to say either Khalil mamoon, Magdy Zidan, Mya, or a 'nour' syrian

you're also probably going to want to buy some essential accessories, like a single burner stove for lighting the new coals you'll have to buy. a tangiers phunnel head/bowl. a second (third, fourth, etc) house, like a nammor or razan. probably a pair of new decent tongs, because just about 90% of the hookahs you'll buy will come with shit tongs.

you still have tobacco et al to contemplate.

Khalil Mamoom - TriMetal has had the best airflow of any MYA or any other kind I have tried (do not forget to clean it thoroughly before you use it).

I mostly use with it a normal ceramic bowl.

i would definitely second that noise about the trimetal. although, i use mine with a phunnel and let me tell you - nothing beats it.

Trully depends on the investment your willing to put into it.If your just wanting to get your feet wet I recomend picking up a mya bambino.You can always upgrade later once you've decided your hooked to smoking shisha.Plus you will then have a nice travel hookah to take to your buddies house.I recomend getting only a single hose hookah.(best smoke)I would't worry about getting to many extras to start.Because once you've started down the hookah smoking path you'll be ordering stuff often and will have plenty of chances to pick up trinkets.
