Zinite Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Phunnel. Just because it's the original. I've also heard of problems with the holes in the vortex clogging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 depends on your application..i like the vortex for everything except tangiers cause the juices run down the holes on the side..were has the phunnel the hole is on top and you dont lose juices..

thevoiceofzeke Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I've had my phunnel for literally one day and I don't think I'll ever buy another type of bowl. I was also out at a party last night and the hookah we were smoking there had a vortex...it didn't really seem a whole lot different from an egyptian bowl and it was a lot harder to pull on than the phunnel. We packed my bowl on the same hookah after the vortex bowl and the flavor, buzz, longevity, and clouds were all increased.I'll back up the phunnel hands down.

ryno Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Phunnel, Phunnel, Phunnel. Smoked out of a vortex a few times, flow is really restricted compared to the phunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsNhookah Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I've used both. I prefer the phunnel because of the lack of juices that can leave the bowl and the much less restrictive airflow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emberke202 Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 and are you using a mod with the phunnel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinite Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 No mod. I have a glass Scali mod, but I don't use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzbizz Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 I own both a vortex bowl and a small phunnel, and I prefer the phunnel. The pull is easier and heat management is easier too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emberke202 Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 and is there a huge difference between the chinese funnel and tangiers? cuz in hungary locally i can buy only chinese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippo_Master Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Don't know why anyone would buy a vortex. Phunnels are the best.Communist funnels bowls smell amazingly bad, but smoke well enough. The colors they come in are very stupid. So buy a phunnel, don't support communism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinamon Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 definitely the phunneland not the chinese knockoffs. its gotta be a tangiers phunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1v3th3ad Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I vote phunnel...I have three phunnels and one vortex and the airflow sucks on the vortex compared to a phunnel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've smoked out of both recently and didn't notice any difference. They're almost exact as far as I could tell when it came to weight/shape/performance.

r1v3th3ad Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 people just want to give eric the business since he is the originator of the phunnel(which I think he more than deserves), but on a serious note, my buddy has a chinese and I have three tangiers phunnels, I dont notice a difference at all either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
