Zinite Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I bought a bunch from thehookah when they were doing BOGO. Sometimes they go out like 15 minutes after they are completely lit. Sometimes half of the coal will go out, and other half won't, leaving a mutated half-gone half-there coal.Besides that, they are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're good I haven't had any problems with them staying lit or anything like that. But I really, really hate the way they smell when you're lighting them. It gives me a head ache sometimes and I light them outside! I also don't like the way they ash, the ash is like micro pellets that weasel their way into your hookah's stem. But other than that they smell bad and ash weird, I really like them. I have 200 of 'em left from my order so I gotta go through them. On the plus side they burn hot and are very easy to manage. I'm just going to buy a box of coco's when I'm done for comparison.EDIT: I use the naturals not the QL.

Well if these smell and ash the same I'll probably stick with ShishaCo since they're cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coplinb Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I got a couple boxes when it was bogo, just to try em out and they are decent coals. the only problem i had with them was that they didnt like to stay hot for me no matter how long i left them on the burner.
