ghostofdavid Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Always remember that you get what you pay for. I have a Stargate and a Mya QT. Both provide excellent smokes and both are well made hookahs (although, I've seen others have problems with their Stargates, such as rusting... which is a big problem!) . My friends love the QT so much, that I've actually both two others to give away. Sadly, one of them is a going away gift but the second one is a hosewarming gift. If you are looking to get a lot of bang for your buck, I would do what c4r80n mentinoed.. go with the Mya QT and get a two hose adapter. If you find out later that you want something else and if you want to spent a little more, then go with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I recommend starting with a basic Egyptian one, two hoses, if you insist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oryon1033 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Mya crystal base is the way to go. It'll hit your wallet hard, but it's worth it. Nothing beats the design, construction, and functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 for a fuctional first hookah, no i wouldnt ever want to go with one that exspensive. if i ever do even get one it would be mainly for display, but i would be too afraid to pull one out at praties.And yea i forgot the link, added it in the above post.

Lakemonster Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 I know...... I'll get run out of town on that one. I think MYA makes good stuff.... but... QT for first hookah? naw... IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GQ_Playboy Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 i think the QT sucks.... sucks real bad... in terms of design... it looks retarded, but i like the cage thing, its actualy pretty cool....honestly i got my stargate rotator the other day... and that thing is SOLID.... i love it, the hose's are gorgeous.... it smokes incredibly and the rotating function works flawlessly.... best bang for your buck in my opinion....

oryon1033 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 I love taking mine to parties. Why buy a sick fuckin pipe and not use it. I'm going to be investing in a 1000 dollar one pretty soon. I saw it at a store in town, and I have to have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilqueToast Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I'd recommend a QT because it's built like a tank and is really easy to clean for the most part. It has a few flaws too though. Purge valve never really clears out all the smoke and is at a crazy angle for cleaning. Most of all it's easy to transport. Inexpensive too especially for the quality.

EvansLight Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 yea i would normally recomend a qt as well, but getting to hang out with ya, i think you probablly would be happier with the one i linked to from hookah-hookah first.Granted i know GuyWithAGun is gonna get one now after getting to try mine, but i suggest for what you want, go with an egyptian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
