gods_a_sinner Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Hi there guys, so at the moment I'm usually using Starbuzz Sex on the Beach from just a simple pumpkin hookah (lil 18 dollar guy). I'm looking to purchase a new one (which is around 50) it is much much taller and better, but I want to know if anyone can give me advice on a hose. A friend of mine showed me this at Habibi Cafe (hookah lounge) in Westwood, http://www.hookahcompany.com/63-cobra-hookah-hose-466-prd1.htm . I don't know if anyone knows about it, but i'd like advice on if anyone knows much about this hose. Please let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Cobras have metal coils inside. 2 year use life max, generally 1. Mine started tasting like rust and bad popcorn about 8 months in. Most people here will recommend Washable hoses like Nammor Line, Razan, NuHose, Tonic... cheap washable hoses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouda Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Cobras have metal coils inside. 2 year use life max, generally 1. Mine started tasting like rust and bad popcorn about 8 months in. Ya me and my friend got six for his six port hookah and we ended up sending three back cause the draw was all messed up and within a year we trashed them all Just outta curiosity what hookah did you get?

mustang67n Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Agreed.. cobra hoses are truly no better than a $5 "mod" hose you can get at any smoke shop (like the ones most pipes will come with). Best bet is to go with a washable, as mentioned above.. also, If you don't mind my asking, what kind of hookah are you looking into? for $50 there is only a select few pipes that are really worth putting the money into, TBH. If it's not MYA, then chances are you might want to look into something with a higher quality build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Get a Razan, Nammor, etc. A good washable will last you way longer than that hose, IMO. I agree with what Nate (mustang67n) said about your hookah price... If it ain't a Mya Saray, then it's probably not a good buy. For around $50, these are your best options on the market right now: http://www.myahookah.com/classic-hookahs.aspx . QT 265 is a classic that many go with, and is my personal favorite.

chinodos Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I had cobra hoses when I first started hookah...I was blowing rust out of them by the 4 month mark. I bought a nammor hose and never went back. Im currently looking into the narbish hoses at hookahjohn. They seem the same if not a little flashier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
