Is This A Good First Hookah?


Recommended Posts

I was just wondering because I don't want my first hookah to be a piece of garbage and break really fast. I was looking around the internet for one and stumbled upon this one: http://www.amazon.com/Egyptian-Luxor-Hookah-Double-nargila/dp/B002YCSMZ2
It looks pretty cool and it's pretty big for the price. If it's not a good buy, are there any specific hookah brands you could recommend me?
Thanks

ha! i never thought to look on amazon for hookahs.


yeah its alright. I would start with a 1 hose personally. 2 people cant smoke out of it at the same time anyways, so might as well share a hose unless youre a germaphobe.

i would recommend [url="http://hookahjohn.com/MYA-QT-063.htm"]http://hookahjohn.com/MYA-QT-063.htm[/url] . its small but it smokes incredibly well. Also cheaper and from a vendor we know rather than nameless guy on amazon.

Hope this helps!

Temsah and KM and magdy zidan I you have some cash. If not a mya is fine. Why do you want a tall pipe if you don't mind me asking

I just think it looks cooler :/
I was originally going to go with a 13 inch one but then I realized I could get some 18-25 inch ones for not that much either.
I guess I could just be picky, too.

I suggest looking at some MYA pipes. If you have a good deal of cash then temsah or KM is your best bet. Hopefully this helps. My favorite sites to order from are hookah-shisha.com hookahcompany.com but some people also like hookahset.com and hookahjohn.com

Thanks for the suggestion for the site! But the mya hookahs are a bit too much for me (I'm not looking to spend over 100 dollars).
What are your thoughts on this one? http://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-102-pharaoh-1-hose-hookah.html

Check out the Nammor Hookah's section on hookah-shisha I bet they would have something you would like plus they come with glass bases!

Hey acrylic bases are awesome. I love mine, and how durable it is.

The Mini Mya is a great little hookah, and I am a big fan of Mya's and love 'em to death, will be a great hookah for ya ;) And even though you have switched off the one in the first post, you can get (it should come with it) a rubber stop to plug the unused ports when smoking a multi hose hookah ;)

I like my hookahs big and thick (yes I said it [img]http://www.hookahforum.com/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif[/img]). Something like this: [url="http://www.nazarhookah.com/khalil-mamoon-hookahs/complete-hookahs/36-khalil-mamoon-blue-pear-hookah-blue"]http://www.nazarhookah.com/khalil-mamoon-hookahs/complete-hookahs/36-khalil-mamoon-blue-pear-hookah-blue[/url] is pretty sweet.

I am accident prone ... so if I have a "desktop" hookah I inevitably will knock it over, brake the vase, bent the stem, stain the carpet, and burn the house down, If it's so big that you have to put it on the floor there is a smaller chance for catastrophe. I have a mysore yoga mat that I put under mine that keeps most of the mess contained. Also, I consider them art so I don't want to get a small one that can just fade into the background.

thats just me.

I've changed my mind and am going to get a Mya QT, was that a good choice?
It has literally a billion great reviews on it, and multiple accounts of it feeling like a larger hookah.
Another thing is I have a high up computer desk, so it would be unnecessary to have a 30 inch hookah because that would just cause problems.

The QT is probably a/the forum favorite. Durable, bulletproof, and semi-cheap to manufacture. Combine that with the fact that it comes with a cage and is cheap to repair in the event you get a little crazy, along with 2-hose capability, there's really no reason not to get one lol. I personally prefer a mozza, but the QT is a damn good pipe.

Ah the QT. You will not regret it my friend, portable, easy to clean, brilliant to smoke. An awesometastic hookah indeed.

[Edit] Forgot to mention that it's sturdy as hell and takes something to tip it over [/Edit] Edited by vendetta_revived
