                   Tokels are awesome some of them even have purges. If you wan't El nefes quality or better get a Tokel. You can buy them off of ebay for like 60-70+ 60 shipping  so it should be around 120-130 total. Problem is it will take 6 weeks to get to you.

I didn't know Tokels came with purge valves. Perhaps some of the Chinese crap models they carry on their site is what you're talking about, Sybian? PJ, I too prefer my Tokel Canary over the Elmas 618, even though they were similar in quality. My Tokel definitely seems to have a longer downstem than the Elmas I had, which is exactly what I was wanting, due to the vase I wanted to pair it with (tall slender trumpet vase), which requires a long downstem. Glad to hear you like both man. Hope they bring you years of enjoyment.

well, given I have the Tokel version of the 618, there are many instantly noticeable differences between that and the Elmas tuğralı. Given yours is at heart the larger version, if it were really Tokel, it would look like a larger version of my tuğralı, not like the spitting image of an Elmas 639...

Meh, to me it doesn't matter. Tokel is just an identifying factor here in my case, since you can only find it labeled as such online. May be different if you were actually in Turkey. At first I was like, oh I just won't call it anything, but then I was like, well people will be PMing me asking what brand it is, etc.... So that is my reasoning behind calling it a Tokel. Because I bought it as such.

Tokel's hose port is exactly the same as the ones found on the Elmas 628 model. What Hassouni is trying to say above is that I have an Elmas 639 with the more common hoseport and Canaries welded on. :P Which may very well be true, as the quality is just like Elmas, but for reference purposes I call it a Tokel. That way is someone else wants it they know what to look up.

My Tokel's hose port is the same style as the Elmas ones (maybe not quite as solid, but close), but angled to the point where the hose JUST meets the tray. The Elmas straight hose port has a shallower angle such that the hose clears the tray by a good bit.

No issues like that for me. Then again, I don't have any Turk hoses. :P But even if I did, I know they would definitely clear the tray.
