russianwizard Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Got my new hookah today. A custom one from saharasmoke.com. I love the fact that it can come apart, it's so easy to clean. I ordered a cobra hose which is about 5 feet, a mini clay bowl, and a vortex bowl. It even came with a 3rd bigger clay bowl, some mouthpieces and a metal cover. Here is what it looks like assembled:The pics don't do justice, the vase looks awesome and it stands around 22" tall. I tried some hookah hookah cinamon and it was a decent flavor, it's more of a flavor that you would need to mix with something else though. I don't recommend using the bundled coals inside though, because once I lit one up it just billowed out smoke.

ryno Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Looks pretty decent. The Akhla coals you have do look like a small brush fire when lit. Enjoy the Cola, its about the only Hookah Hookah flavor I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crys Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I have a Sahara Cyclone myself and I am really happy with itjust a warning though, you're gonna want to clean it after every session.........for some reason Sahara stuff likes to collect nastiness if not completely clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russianwizard Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 It's one of their custom medium sized hookahs. Medium gunmetal stem, medium green candy vase, cobra hose, vortex bowl. Cost me around $70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russianwizard Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'm using a Sahara + a vortex bowl and it's not that bad. You have to fill the vase with a certain amount of water to get it going right. I filled it a couple centimeters too much and the pull was difficult. Sharpie mark on the designated fill line does the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. Morgan Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Nice looking hookah. My only warning is that Sahara hookahs seem to rust really quickly if you are not careful. My firt hookah was a saharasmoke genie. Served me very well, sold it to a friend over a year ago and it still smokes pretty well. They just seem really finicky about the water level.
