JoeLipinski Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I have not bought from them yet, so I can't tell you how good their hookahs are, but if you are looking for hookahs similar to what H-S has, www.nazarhookah.com has some good prices.

Lakemonster Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 You've sniffed out a chinese manufactured hookah. I never give them high ranks.... Ive seen the hookah in person that you are looking at... and you can do better with your price point. An enigmatic problem with hookah is that a great smoking system doesnt always accomidate your taste in appearance.Thats why searching for a great hookah is so difficult.A personal suggestion if you have decided to go with HS.com would be the Pharoah and the Glyph 2 hose.... the latter can be customized rather easily to perform better as a single hose hookah.

Hookah Joe Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I hope this works. It's the glyph.Hey guys, im new here. Since it seems you want a 1 hose, or two hose, I would suggest the glyph from H-S. I've just gotten into the hookah scene, and a friend of mine just got one. I am Either picking one of these up ( I think I need a 3 hose however, cause I got 2 really close friends who hookah smoke), or one of the snake 3 house in green(when they're in stock again). I used their online help (really helpful, on the front page, top right hand corner). I was helped pick out 2 possible hookahs, along with different flavors of shisha, from different manufacturers. I mentioned Hookahforum to the guy, and he immediately praised you guys, like many have praised H-S. I will be doing business with these people.

JoeLipinski Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Actually lake, a lot of people like the hookahs on H-S, which I am almost positive are the same on nazar. The reason you don't see too many/no reviews for nazar in the review section is because they are relatively new. If you have any concerns about nazarhookahs, the owner of nazar is on the forum and can easily help you out. He seems like a very good guy. I hope this helps you out.

cymptom Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 I'm inclined to suggest the Khalil Mamoun hookahs at hookahcompany.com, but that's primarily because I'm really excited to get mine right now. I haven't gotten my hands on one yet, but the Khalil Mamoun brand is reputed for traditional quality. I'm willing to bet it'll outperform any Mya I've tried (even my crappy Egyptian does, despite the fact that it's falling apart.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 If you are looking for a hookah that looks clean and brand new, do NOT buy an egyptian hookah, buy mya saray. The egyptians still smoke well but they look like a piece of crap (rusted, really bad hand-made). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have way bigger stems and you can get huge hits from them. Myas, while extremely well-made, have smaller stems and a bit tighter draw.

Guest Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 haven't tried social smoke so I have no say on THEIR egyptians, what I ordered from got me a different result. won't say the vendor bc he gave me reimbursement for the hookah. still a piece of crap though.

ghostofdavid Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Even if he OR SHE gave you reimbursement, you should still speak up so others can have an attempt of them being duped. Giving someone's money back in an instance where they sent you the wrong thing isn't the nice thing to do, its the legal thing to do. I would recommend Social Smoke because their hookahs are ubertanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VDDZ Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Nice, you choose two very well designed hookahs; I have single hose versions of both and whenever one of my hookah experiments fail or if my little hookah pisses me off, I throw the bowl on them and it's heaven. My favorite is the rotator, though the one I have has a larger vase than the one in the pic (I discovered this by buying a large vase from them, only to find it was too small as well. Made it into a mini). The Egyptian we call O'Reliable, as it has never failed us and was free, it was a gift. You chose two great hookahs, and really can't go wrong, but I'll give you my two cents...Get the two hose rotator, Super Nova. They smoke great, rotate so hoses doing get tangled, it looks cool when it spins, and most importantly, it has a very wide mouth so you can easily pour water and large ice cubes in. You would think, "Well, if I had four hoses, I wouldn't need to spin it, as everyone would have their own hose," but in doing that, your killing half of the fun in hookah, sharing. Hookah is more than a vice, it's a custom; it's complete with meaning being given to certain ways of smoking or passing the hose (for example, it's rude to pass the hose tip pointing toward the acceptor, it must be folded over, so that the tip is pointing to the passer and where the hose meets the metal/wood is pointed to the acceptor). My family, as far as I know, doesn't even own, or endorse, multi hose hookahs because then it takes away from the bonding of giving and accepting that goes on at a sub-conscious level. My buddy and I have become so in tuned to this subliminal sense, that when one of us even starts to want the hose back, we find it being handed to us. I'm sure the King Tut will smoke like a champ, but giving four people a hose will also have you constantly changing the bowl. Even if you want portability, the Super Nova's bottom rotator part can be removed and it would end up being smaller than the king tut.Words of advice: Get the Super Nova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halon Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 The Super Novas aren't bad. I've got the 6-hose version, and I bust it out every once in a while for big parties and such. I would definitely get a two-hose (or one, preferrably) hookah for everyday use instead of the four-hose. I pretty much only use one-hose hookahs, and even with groups of 6 or so there's no problems. If you want an Egyptian, I would really go with social smoke. Hookah-Shisha's rotators are not bad at all, though.TYLER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unleashtheclown Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 (edited) I'd go with socialsmoke personally, I have the oracle and there hookahs hit very freely theres almost no restricted felling when u hit it. I also wouldnt recommend a hookah with more than 2 hoses, they're a pain and dont smoke too well, very restrictive and people forget to cover the end.
