rez Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 so i was looking around and i noticed that single hose KM's are $100+, are these hookahs really worth it? what is so great about them to justify the cost? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookah hippie Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 depends where you are buying from and which one I have gotten hookahs for between $60 - $80 (KM) They do work really well but the market is doing what the market does. People want KMs now so now they are more money and people are still buying them at the raised cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antouwan Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 you can buy one used for less. . .like from me! j/k i think it's already sold. seriously though, they are great pipes. they will last and smoke like few other things out there. as was stated above, you just have to look harder and you can pick one up for the 60 - 70 dollar range if you look hard enough and the sales are right. hookah john is running a great sale on kms right now. long story short, they are great pipes and are definitely worth more than an overpriced $20 pumpkin, and generics as well. if you buy a km you're 99% sure to get a quality pipe that will smoke well and last a long time. they are worth more. are they worth what some/most of them are currently going for? i don't think so, that's why i'm glad i got mine while the prices were still reasonable.

no longer welcome Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 yes, and one simple reason is the amount of other crap hookahs on the market, not that km's are the greatest of all and not that all others are crap, but my vote is still yes.

skmiller Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Whats a good KM that you guys would recommend? Also, how about the hose that comes with it? Are they really good or do you recommend going with a Narbish v3 from Hookah John over the KM hoses or possibly some other hose all together?

[/quote] i honestly think the shorter KMs hit better than the taller ones. The KM 'AS' hose is a really wide gauge hose, but it also a little short. The Ultimates are pretty decent hoses and still pull great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] they are just different model of hoses..km makes alot of different hoses but none are washable..size wise there are a few rumors that the shorter the pipe the hotter the smoke will be and the bigger buzz you get and the taller the pipe the cooler the smoke will be..honestly i think its just opinions nothing solid..i mean there are tiny hookahs that are like 5'' tall and people claim it doesnt smoke hot..so again the height thing is up to you..some people like tall hookahs and some like small hookahs..the 2010 models are the latest models i believe..they have fancier stems and vases but will basically smoke the same as the ones in the december sales..plus if you do decide to order and your order is $45 or more you can use the forum coupon code during check out HF13 and you get 10% off your order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nars2k Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Honestly I would prefer a single hose over a double hose anyday but either way. The price for KMs is because they are each handmade. They are also one of the most durable and best smoking hookahs on the market today. That goes for authentic Egyptian hookahs period. You can find them for cheaper than a $100 just depends where you look and what your looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no longer welcome Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 this post is making me want to get a new km, hmm should i sell my pharonie and get something else? i may have to wait to see if some new models come in soon. hmmmm, i have no need to change km's but it's fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mix_tape Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I have a double hose KM and it smokes really well. I'm defiantly on the look out for a single hose KM. You don't need to spend lots of money there are great deals out there just have to be willing to look for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename067 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Do you want a Hookah that's going to last many years? Do you want a Hookah that out-smokes all the other brands and delivers every single time? Do you want a Hookah that has the best purge and the easiest pull? You definitely asnwered yes to all the above, so the KM is definitely worth it. I have never paid above 50% of what KMs are worth over the net, so to some people, the price might be a little intimidating, but, you get what you pay for with a KM.
