what are your guys's thoughts on this?
i use this on my pumpkin and i would say that it works great, although i've never smoked with foil and a windcover (being the noob that i am) so i don't have anything to compare it to.

thanks for helping me out,

C-C-C-C-C-combo breaker. The screen would get too hot and the odd shape of the tophat thingy would restrict where, how, and when you moved/placed your coals as well as what kind you used.

Well I have one. The biggest complaint i have about it is that:



1.The wind cover is pretty much non removeable.
2. Once you put your coals on the screen and lcok the cover latch down, it gets too hot to handle and impossible to open without some kind of accident, so rearranging the coals is difficult.

Used one once or twice and I think if you use a small enough amount of coal it could work, but just seems like it'd keep too much heat in.

i'm used to using QLs with it, and i don't latch the topp down, i just keep it flush with the screem. it actually deosn't get the shisha too hot, i just have an issue with how quick it makes 2 coals burn down.

I was about to purchase one of those for when I use it at festivals and camping. Glad I read this. Will start searching for something better.

Not a fan of those bowls, I hate using screens and the cover would become very hot making it difficult to move

[NitetimeReign]

I have thought about getting one of these not so much cause I think it's a good bowl, cause I think the cons are more than the pros on this one. So if I picked one up it would be just because and I would probably use it once then put it up.

[Venger]

the bowl is a good size for short smokes and you only need one coal.My wind cover rusted so I removed it. I still use the bowl.using it right now in fact because I wanted a quick smoke.

I'm not a fan of those guys. It's a good idea, but there's really no way do it without it being a pain in the arse. Everything gets too hot, undoing the clasp with coals on is a guaranteed hand burn since you have to hold the bowl, the screen is crap, and it's ceramic. Not to mention it's really not big enough to accomodate natural coals. My money is better spent elsewhere.

For Nakhla, AF, Romman, and Quicklight coals I love it.

I don't bother with coal management it's impossible.

But I have used this setup a ton especially before I found out about phunnel bowls. I have 2 of these still. Getting rid of one. I take it when I travel. It's so easy and I don't have to mess with foil and toothpicks.

We sell quite of bit of these combo bowls. We recommend using them outside so the air can circulate through the windcover portion and allow the charcoals to not get too hot and allow for better heat management. When using inside just keep the lid off and take off the screen and use foil. Depending on how the combo bowl is made, the problem with the screen is that it only stays tightly on the bowl if it is latched with windocver, therefore when using inside you want to keep the screen and windcover off.

[insidius]

This was the first bowl I bought. I used it twice, realized the flaws (already mentioned by others) and never used it again.

I have one for just incase I decide to drive and smoke, I bought it quite a while ago and it's all rusty but I may be able to clean it up. if you don't cate about smoking for a long while its good, 1 3k broken in half with the lid down made heftier tobaccos like nakhla smoke great while AF burned a bit. All in all it's not the worst thing to ever hit the hookah market.... this is [url="http://cgi.ebay.com/Hookah-shisha-sheesha-hooka-Ice-Clay-Bowl-/320468776246?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&NHT (Non-Hookah Tobacco)=item4a9d6d7536"]http://cgi.ebay.com/Hookah-shisha-sheesha-hooka-Ice-Clay-Bowl-/320468776246?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&NHT (Non-Hookah Tobacco)=item4a9d6d7536[/url]
