i have tried egyptian, syrian, chinese, modern, and iranian. they all smoke pretty well but i must say egyptian and syrian hit the best. my first mya experience will be when it comes in on tuesday so that may change. those pumpkin hookahs are a freakin joke BTW!!!

EDIT: my mya that i ordered is a bohemian.

I like egyptian, glass base, one hose.
Would one day like to own one of each kind.
From the looks of them, it doesn't seem that Indian hookahs
would smoke very well but they do look nice.

I had a syrian for a first hookah.

Had a very shallow all clay bowl that was male, unlike egyptian female hookahs.

IMO it sucked arse. Wouldnt ever touch a bodgy looking welded/bronzed/soldered hookah again unless it was something incredibly out of the box.

I have a mya saray QT and i think it is fantastic. easy to pull from, and good consistant smoke.

I also have a chinese screw in one that i got in israel (16" fatota on Smoking hookah) and it smokes really well too. Its stem is narrower then the qt despite being 2" taller, and thus is harder to pull from, but besides the slight restriction i get good thick flavourful smoke from it.

Id be interested to try an egyptian, but probably a rotator, that is of decent quality, this time round.

Its a tough one for me.
I have my Egyptian Nour type thingy, and I freakin love it. It looks and feels so much better using the big hookah, and I just feel sophisticated.

My QT smokes amazingly, looks very purposeful, but I just feel weird using it. As if its a toy.

i have to say syrians. i dunno there's just something about a well made syrian brass pipe that i love. the curves man like on a beautiful woman hehe. the unglazed clay bowls are small and kinda suck but u win some you lose some. i like it that they break apart into alot of pieces helps with the washing and drying.

If I am remembering correctly, syrian bowls connect to the hookah differantly than egytians, and there are adaptors out there so you can put egytian bowls on a syrian hookah. Or maybe Iam completely wrong, but its something to look into
