Nammor Hose Or Khalil Mamoon

[Zha28]

Which do you prefer and why? Maybe a draw difference?

[dizzbizz]

KM. They're prettier and the draw is just as good. Not washable though

they arnt washable??...oops. haha. i dried it well, should be fine.

um...the pull is really similar...and yes, i agree. KM hoses do look better

[Codename067]

Nothing tops KM hoses in my book. They are the most solid hoses I've ever used. They also come in a lot of different models to suit anyone's 'needs'.

Only downside, you can not wash them, then again, after using them for one year, you would most likely have at least another KM hose that's much newer to go for another year or so. The longest I've used a KM hose before putting down was..2 1/2 years, the Ultimate. Great hoses.

[Stuie]

I prefer Nammors. Draw is the same on both. But I really hate the bulky Hose Port sides of the hoses.

Man, I actually really DIG those huge sides. Big Hookahs require.. bulky accessories!



Couldn't pull off a KM hose on a Mya as nice as you would on a KM! The same way a Mya hose wouldn't exactly look appealing on a KM/Egyptian Hookah. My thoughts at least.

Big hoses and KMs are a match made in heaven

[Travis]

I like the km.....draw is good.
But again i like the nammore because of the washable factor.
Try out the narbish, its a happy medium.
I own multiple of all three and i havent had any issues ever.
Hell some of my km hoses are 3 years old and still smoke fine.

[MrIsrael]

I've only ever tried the new KM hose that came with my friends KM Butterfly,
However, I always use my nammor, and it's flawless!
The diameter of the hose is very wide, resulting in great pull.
And again, I'm not sure about the KM, but the nammor washes well too.
Hope this helps.

[Allstar]

I haven't had a chance to try the KM, but I bought the nammor off the recommendation from the store guy. I have to say I love it.

[Chreees]

I have the Mini Nammor with my Mya QT... It's great. But I've also used the KM hose, and it's great also. Really between these two it's if you care about being able to wash your hose or not and aesthetics. I never wash my Nammor. There's also no difference in draw between the KM and Nammor. I don't like the Narbish, but then again I haven't tried the V3. I know I hate the ridiculously long/bulky hose port handle on them... It's just pointless weight, I think. That factor alone will make me never buy another one. Only get a Narbitch if you have a big KM or something... otherwise you'll regret it. But altogether I'd suggest the Nammor or KM. Nammor you can wash, KM you can't. Also there's the difference in the way they look. I thought the blue mini Nammor would match my blue QT well, and it does. So it basically comes down to those factors for you...

Okay thanks. I do have another question for you. How snug does a small tangiers phunnel bowl have to be cause the hole on the bottom is pretty small with my stem. Hookahshisha is sending me more grommets but I just wanted an idea cause traditional bowls go all the way down with a perfect fit it's just my phunnel that's giving me trouble

I'd just use a strip of damp paper towel if you can't find a grommet that fits good.What hookah do you have?

Km blue sobek like other bowls slip all the way to the bottom but the phunnel won't go passed half

[Chreees]

Just fit it on there as tight as you can and check for leaks... To be honest with you when I had my KM OG Trimetal I always used the damp paper towel strip... The grommets John sent me sucked hardcore, so I never used them. Wet paper towel creates a for-sure airtight seal.

I am going to have to agree with Codename. Plus with the KM hoses you do not have to deal with the plastic taste

The idea is to make it airtight from air coming up from the bottom of the bowl right?

Yes. The damp paper towel trick will definitely make sure everything's tight... Try it out.

I will when my new stem comes in. Which is hopefully Wednesday

[Codename067]

Yeah, paper towels FTW. I

have not used a rubber hose/bowl grommet for the past...5 years. It's been a half wet and half dry paper towel piece. They seal WAY better than rubber grommets.

That's impressive I have to try it

[shaffaaf27]

km anydays

[Sonthert]

Some of the new KM hoses have long stem pieces and some have shorter ones.

I don't think there is any need to wash a hose in the first place...I'd go with the KM, although the Nammor hose is a good hose in its own right, not worrying about it being washable. Either one is fine to me.

[Zha28]

Il have both so il try email out

How's the tangier business sonthert

[Sonthert]

Not slow, I'll tell you that.

[ih303]

Not to jack this thread, but this whole wet paper towel thing gets me every time. See, I've never ever had any problem with rubber grommets. I typically use the more rigid grommets with the lip on Egyptian Hookahs, the silicone ones on Mya's, and those fat, squishy white ones if I have an Egyptian bowl with an exceptionally large opening. The only time I require anything else is when I throw a small phunnel on a few of my Egyptian hookahs. Then I use electrical tape (hookah smoker's best friend!).

You guys talk of leaking grommets, I guess I've either never experienced it or just don't know what to look for. What clued you in to the fact that it was leaking?
