sambookamax Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I bought this hose from a web site, and washed it one time, and used it about 4 times. Well, I went to wash it for a hookah party I was going to have...and the hose was deteriorated! There was holes along the hose, and LOTS of rust...This hose was barely used...and I must admit I am very dissatisfied with my hose purchase!I ended up pulling the handles off and using them with a plastic hose to get through the night.This was RATED as a WASHABLE Hose! I am really disatisfied with my purchase from this online company...will post more after I receive a response...Anybody else ever have a "washable" hose do this??!???

Johnny_D Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Name & Shame.This is not the first time i've seen this reported on hookahforum.comWhere did you get it? Is it a Mya?JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambookamax Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 It wasn't a MYA hose...I have one of those that came with my QT and that hose is fine.... This one was rated a washable, I am in the process of bringing it to the website's attention, and seeing what kind of response I get before I through there name out there.The Hose was a Washable Green Martian Hose??? Pretty much a green hose with wooden ends...can't find it ANYWHERE on the internet!? The company that was selling it, is no longer selling it...This just ticks me off...when I buy a crap product and get taken for my hard earned money!

ghostofdavid Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I know what company you are talking about because they had the Green Martian "heavily discounted" on their site. I almost picked up a few but didn't. Email them and let them know of your experience and if they don't do anything, let us know. If they do something nice, let us know that, too.

sambookamax Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 Working with the website now, we are coming to a conclusion on how to handle this...What happened was the site listed the hose as washable, and I bought it, well they realized it is not washable and fixed the description on the site, they caught the mistake in a few days, but I had already ordered a hose...I thought it was washable...to my surprise when the thing fell apart! LOL!So, we are working out a trade for a replacement now...will keep ya posted...will let you know the site and the outcome when I find out...Cheers!

Macho555 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I HATE when sites do that...I honestly think that the sites never even know its washable or not until someone tells them otherwise. I've had to kill off a few nice looking hoses before I decided to exclusivly buy MYAs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambookamax Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 well that would be great, if it doesn't whistle...will try it out tonight, see how it smokes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthEastSmoker Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 the whistling is actually fun, as once you've washed it out, you can go outside and whirl it around above your head and make that noice that those toys used to as a kid..
