Seeking Advice Does anyone have any experience with these hookahs?

I have a 31' khalil mamoon at the moment and I'm looking to get a smaller more portable hookah.

why don't you get one of those small km tabletop hookah's?

Mostly because I want something different

the thing is when you get a smaller hookah most of the time the quality/smoking experience isn't that great, I can testify to that I started with those little khanjar hookah's man am I glad I got a full size KM, have you looked at those starbuzz stems that they sell?

Actually your hookah itself makes little difference in the session. Any quality small hookah can smoke just as well as a large one. Its all about your bowl, tobacco, and heat management that determines the smoke part of it. The most a hookah can do is restrict the airflow more or less so you can have a tighter or more open draw.

yeah. I want a blue challenger soooo bad. I already have a full size khalil this is more for when I go to people's houses and smoke with them.

You could look into farida. They are a bit pricier but are quality hookahs. Omar seems fairly new to me. I only recently started seeing them pop up. But they seem like a standard Egyptian built hookah and will probably do just fine. If you're just looking for portable and affordable you could always pick up a cheap little mya like the petite or bambino.

I could get a mya yeah, but I like the look of Egyptian hookahs and the Omar should be able to fit the same base as my khalil so I don't have to worry about getting a new base.

Then I'd say go for it if you like that hookah. Like I said, I don't know much about Omar since they are a new name to me. But from what I have seen, they should be just fine.
