Is that tray even legit? It looks like it was very poorly spun, and all the other ones I've seen looked like they were stamped.


which tray are you referring to?


The ice bucket.


Yeah the tray is legit, what i am more worried about is the stem itself....

There should be a "Survivors of poor quality KM pipes" fund.. to help relieve the pain caused by these dastardly events. Then donate the poor quality ones to charity.. so they can be used as clubs, doorstops.. and paper weights.

Can't speak to the stem. My new double pear from thehookah is great. Very heavy and very well made. So this may be an isolated incident. I hope it is, I don't want to see any more people disappointed.

As far as the hoses...I love them. smile.gif Great hoses but too short. The pull is nice and the flavor doesn't linger too well in them. My only complaint is that the glue on the hose is kind of...um...excessive. It's all over the place and looks bad but it just takes some picking to get that stuff off.

Sorry to hear about this, man. It really does suck.

The nut on the first KM is a bit larger, but even my high quality tri-metal has a nut like that. I have the exact same hose and it's bad ass. So i dunno what you got.


Yeah I have heard that some tri metals have the nut on the ends of um, and that more and more KM's will have that instead of the bulge. The problem I have with the hose is the fact that it feels like its plastic instead of pleather (marginal problem I know) and it just doesnt seem to be of the same quality as other KM hoses. (again this is a standard hose that comes with it, not a ultimate. I wasnt expecting super high quality, it was just more fuel to my fire)

I see what you mean. I just felt the new one compared to my older ones and it feels like slightly different.  Not sure if it's just cured differently. I don't think it will fall apart or anything though.  Time will tell.

Ouch sorry to hear that... given the prices I'm really not surprised that you're disappointed. If I were to drop 100$+ on a hookah I'd expect a premium hose.

the ice looks really cheezy, like its not even a KM, the HOL looks ok from the outside, but those hose ports are utter shit, sorry to say. i would return them man in all honesty. they look like they are gonna rust and break down real quick. the vases are not KM, and im not sure about the hoses. unless KM came out with some new hoses. very sad.

Now like I said, you wont be able to tell much from the pics, they aren't that bad they smoke ok (minus the HOL smoking like a QT), the quality in their construction is the issue.

I have the regular one, and it looks about the same as yours does. Maybe a lil worse, the bottom part of the tray like the under side that connects to the top side that is stamped, had a big gap so water got in there and into the pipe when washing. Was a bitch to get out, so I had to glue, yes glue the bottom of the tray shut.

add mechant to this list, he got fuxored on a exotica. he bought it used it like 9-10 times, washed it and dried it after each use, and he sent pictures of it and the down stem is already rusting. New KM Shit = Epic Failure
