Nick88 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Hey Im looking to buy me a new hookah and I am trying to decide between a KM shooting star or a Mya colossus. I woundering if anyone has tried any of these or had another hookah in mind that they thought was a pretty good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Anyone here is going to tell you this: They both are good pipes They both will smoke about the same The Km is cheaper, that doesn't make it of less quality Asthetics are all that matter at this point Pick which one you think looks better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Click Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 [quote name='Travis' timestamp='1287469971' post='485537'] Aesthetics are all that matter at this point [/quote] THIS. I think they both look great. That KM is quite a bit more expensive than most one hose KMs, so it really is just which you think looks better.

Get what you think looks better. Also, remember- that Mya can turn into a four-hoser... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Hamilton Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 KM shooting star hands down...if you think the colossus looks better than that...I dunno plus MYAs dont purge well bcoz of the common chamber...smoke well though (MYAs in general) if this will be your first pipe I highly recommend a KM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allstar Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I have multiple Km and Mya sitting at home. I agree, it is all about looks at this point. I like the shooting star better but that is my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeDave Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Welp, Travis nailed his prediction. Choose whichever one you want. I would go with the mya in this situation, just because I find it more asthetically pleasing. Plus, I'm a fan of the vase. I would consider whether or not this is going to be a hookah that you have outdoors, even if only occasionally. If I was going to invest in a hookah that didn't leave my living room, Mya. if I wanted to let it travel, KM. Only because having owned both a large KM and a large(er than a qt) mya, I find KM to be a more resilliant transport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ih303 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I'd choose neither. Find yourself a Temsaah. IMO, you'll get the most hookah for your money that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Hmm, they're both a bit fancy for my taste, but speaking as a woman, I think the Mya will get more attention from the ladies. The KM will get you more cred with the fellas. They'll both make you pretty happy--not sure how happy you'll be with the draw on the Mya hose, pretty as it will be. But, then, I've never tried one of their leather hoses. I know their regular hoses have pretty lousy draw. I have the Mya Bambino which has a tiny bit of that cloisonne on it, it's really gorgeous up close. I'm betting the Mya Colossus is much prettier in person too. I agree with pretty much everything everyone else has said here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ih303 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Wait, what criteria is the OP basing his search on? I suppose I've never really considered the hookah's role in getting laid. But if that's what we're going off of I'd definitely recommend the pink Ed Hardy hookah. [img]http://www.hookahforum.com/uploads/1283116124/gallery_13155_245_2649.jpg[/img] [b][size="5"]BOOYA!

Chreees Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 In my opinion, a pipe will last you for as long as you take care of it. In other words, if you baby the hell out of it, it'll last you forever. Cleaning and care is key. Only issue I can see with Mya's longevity is how there's so much that unscrews- threading can/does wear out. If you are careful, it shouldn't be a problem really. But I do love Mya. KM and Mya are both great brands. The two top brands, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxik916 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I'd go with the Mya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ih303 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Hold on... Is this your first hookah? If YES, get a Mya QT. The best starter hookah, period. Plus it's cheap enough to allow you to get a washable hose and phunnel bowl all for less than what you'd spend on the KM! If NO, get whatever looks good to you. If you already have a Mya, get a KM or other Egyptian. If you already have an Egyptian, get a Mya. Afterall, variety is the spice o' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
