Which hookah would u choose


Recommended Posts

I have a minverva.... and it's good and al... but hands down if you aren't worried about money get the first. Whenever I make it to save that much up for a piece, I'm def gonna get it. It's just uber sexxeh.

I would go for either the MYA hookah or the social smoke extra-large single hose bohemian hookah. I love my 3 hose social smoke hookah, but I also love MYA hookahs. If you can afford it go with the MYA, but if not def the extra-large single hose bohemian.

I love the Social Smoke Minerva. Its my current most used hookah... mainly cause i ran out of lemon so i havent been able to wash my other 2 XD But yea.

I would recommend a MYA... just not that one. If my understanding is right, there is no inner sleeve on that model to go inside the stem. The stem pieces are cast and have porous surfaces that get gunked up easily..... the parts require soakings regularly. I have something simular and its a PITA. Sometimes you come in and just want to clean you fookah fast enough to have a "spontaneous" bowl.

The SS choices will please you. I have yet to see an egyptian hookah that rivals the quality of SS stock.

I was interested in this MYA model also, the chrome one, but then I hear this. Is there any more information concerning this model out there?

The one Sang pointed out is sleeved, and easy to clean.

Yes. you can use a brush on it..... but it is still very difficult to get in the pits on the inside of the stem using a brush.. It may be clean.... or at least not filthy. but it will retain a "ghost" of the last flavor more than a hookah that has a nice smooth inner surface of the stem. But that may not be a big deal for someone, tho.

I would certainly make it a point to clean it immediately after smoking..... every time.

I just bought one like that mya that sanguine pointed out. waiting for it to arrive. Wish I had seen that on MYa''s site while I was there, but I still prob would have bought the hookahcompany one. I like the stem on mine a bit more but the glass bottom onthe MYA site is beautiful. they appear about the same price too.

I like the amber color the best though the red looks nice too.

the last one is nice with the frosting. Helps hide the calcium line that may develope over time of having the water evap at the same place. I have blue frosted, my budy wishes his was like that.

the rest look all about the same. The only diff. appearantly between the 2 and 3rd is the color and a slight design on the glass. Personally I thinkt he green one is ugly.

the x-l bohemian seems to have pretty bases. I've heard once you hit 30"there isn't that much of a difference in the smoke. But, it does have to travel further. They all seem pretty good.

The two from hookahcompany have really good release valves if it gets too harsh. I can't quite make out the ones from social smoke. I know the first one I bought had a crappy "ball" shaped release vavle. If I want to blow out the smoke I have to completely unscrew the valve. But, on the otherhand I''ve gotten really good at making it "not harsh" so it worked out for me in the end.

the hookahs from hookahcompany come with really big bowls by the looks of it you'll want to get a smaller one for personal use. Don't use the circular coals that come from theones at social smoke, I've had some like that blow up.

anyways, they are all about the same I think. It will really come down to what you like, what looks best to you, I doubt you will experience much of a difference with any of them.

Oh and though I don't know if the cobra hose is washable. I don't think mine is, if you go with social smoke make sure you get the washable hose.
