My hookah is 6 months old. The hoses dont work well anymore. Barely any smoke. Does anyone else have the same problem?

Yup. Same thing here. They are just stock hoses. They are always terrible though. Invest in some good nommar ones

Both of my actual hoses tore and one of the hose connecters is completely broken

Well i didnt have a problem but i do change hoses frequently cause if there not washable ( most of them arent) the do built some kind of dust from the charcoil and it tends to brake them or clogg them so you need to buy new ones and problem solve if you are willing to invest buy the washable ones there a lil pricier but u can rinse them and there way more durable

I have used mine for about four months, lots of greasy smoke, filters still green. Should replace the filters when the light turns red.

Yes, I've started having problems with mine after 7 months. I thought it may be the filter but they said not. They sent me three parts I have to try to replace and see if that works. It seems like the don't want to give out new filters. My suction is fine for about 5 minutes and you can see the diffence. There are no clogs but the motor overheats and shuts down. I'll see what the parts do but I don't thing they are the problem.

Sounds like you have a problem with your hose. I would just replace the hose and it should work fine.

I got the first lighter.. Filled it with butane.. It didn't light. I complained, a 2nd was shipped..and that one also failed to work. Sparks, but no flame. JUNK!

I have not had that problem, check that your hoses are in the correct position in and out, also make sure that the filter is filled with water.

Hello. I experienced the same thing. I used a pipe cleaner wire to gently clean the groves/openings and ran hot water over it weekly. Mine just gave out after about a year. I could not find a way to open up the unit to clean the inside. I am not sure if I would purchase another one. Hope this helps. Take care.

Yes- I took all of the hoses apart, cleaned everything, put it back together, and it never happened again. I hope that helps!

Mine just blew up in the area where the cord goes into the porcelain part. There was a loud pop and smoke. The innards of the porcelain part are burnt. I just got this in June 2014. Has anyone else experienced this?

I am on my 2nd pack of 5. In each pack there was one that refilled a few times then the valves started leaking. The rest filled fine until the lighter died from other things. You must purge them before you refill them and always use very high quality butane else no lighter will work well when you refill them. The batch from last year was better than the batch I received just a few months ago.

You may need more butane. I use mine on a daily basis and run out every 2-3 weeks. If that's not it you may have accumulated some dirt iN the hardware. Hit every nook and crany of it with a q-tip. I wouldn't use any chemical cleaners unless you're positive of the reactivity. Final suggestion is make sure every apparatus is snug and not damaged. Hope one of those help.

I do not, I will say if I could go back I would probably not buy this again because it is very dry when you smoke it. :/ Its not the best quality of hookah.

I just recently noticed in having the same problem. I suppose I'm going to need to contact customer service or just get in there and see if it needs some pipe dope.

I would contact Smokey M S and ask them if they have a replacement. I went to their site and the construction of that smoker looks well thought out. Wouldn't want to change a well thought out design.

I'm on my second unit in 6 years. I'm afraid they don't last very long. I have somewhat hard water and use the unit about once or twice a day. I haven't been able to find anyone who has replacement parts or offers service. There's not a whole lot inside - just the tank and heating element but the only option I've found is to replace it. Wish they lasted longer.

Have you made sure its free from dust? I would wipe the entire heater (front and back) with a damp cloth, let it dry, then try it out. If it still smokes after that, sounds like its safest to replace it. It's worth trying to clean it first. You should dismount it from the wall to clean and dry it. Good luck!

I have had the same problem just last week. The plastic piece on one side, that holds the nozzle in place from the inside, broke. I do not have any idea why. I only use this vacuum for daily very light clean up after dinner. Have had this unit for 17 months and am not happy with the quality of the parts.
