I love this little thing, it simply goes on and makes it much much more quiet and it produces a little more smoke, not much though but more. Buy with caution, some bases have a smaller opening and will not work, also if your stem has a round thing at the bottom it will not fit over it. Anyway over all 10/10 hands down, I will never smoke without it!
I worried that the whole filter would be made of a rubbery material, and would degrade and be hard to clean, but it's a hard plastic basket with a rubbery top. Only the small filter fits in my Mya QT, which I was a little bummed about because I wanted to use them together, until I actually smoked with it! EXTREMELY quiet smoke. I actually had to look at the vase to make sure my hoses were in right when I first lit up my bowl, because it was just so quiet I couldn't tell! Great for an apartment dweller with thin walls, like me. It was really hard to get on, and when I put the wrong filter on, it was really hard to get the rubber back off, but that just means a secure fit! This is a great product. I am so happy I bought it.
AMAZING
For sure this is worth the money, its hard to get used to the lack of bubbles as they get alot quiter once this is on, I one three hookah's and the large size didn't fit on any of the three hookahs, but the small did fit on all of them. I recomend you run it in hot water then push the diffuser on.
I have a Mya Bambino small, and a 30" Egyptian, It comes with 2 sizes with the option of just using the small diffuser inside the larger diffuser. I just leave the small in my Mya, and the big in my Egyptian. Thick clouds, everyone that comes and smokes is amazed at how much better they both hit. And the flavor is definitely intensified! Must have for any hookah.
I was skeptical about ordering this accessory for my lovely Mya Vortex 4 hose model, very high quality, great smoke every time, it simply looks and really is a plastic boondoggle that has holes all the way around it. I unfortunately could not fit the larger insert on, so I can only use the small one at the moment. As soon as I received the package in the mail, I set up a small bowl with some White Peach Starbuzz and immediately noticed a huge difference. The smoke was incredibly thick, incredibly smooth, and absolutely the best smoke I've had hands down, and it never got harsh once. I've had the same quality ever since! Take my advice and buy one on your next order, it really makes a huge difference. :
I bought this for my hookahs figuring for $10 it's probably worth it. My first drag on the hose and I knew it was the best thing I'd ever done for my hookah! Seriously, it's much smother and better filtered if you have one of these. Life long fan right here.
Personally, I was upset because the big diffuser didn't fit into my Mya basin, and the small one barely fit either. Other problems included the downstem being too big for the rubber insert of the diffuser. However, used the diffuser in a traditional egyptian to great results, made for a luxuriously smooth smoke. Recommended if your hookah basin's entrance is fairly large.
It makes sense - smaller bubbles = more surface area for possible filtration. I don't know if water filtration really helps, but if it does than this adds to it. It does feel smoother, and it's a very cheap improvement. Takes some stretching over an old Egyptian pipe, but is flexible. Thumbs up.
i have a large hookah that was so loud, i bought this diffuser and it was like putting it on mute. a great product
Neither diffuser fits into the top of the hookah base, bummed!
I just bought my first hookah and have put an order in for this diffuser (I forgot it's an accessory not included). My friend has this little guy and it's something I can't live without. I've been smoking for about 9 months now and every bowl has been on his hookah with this diffuser. One bowl without it was all I needed to realize that's a staple to a good hookah experience. Pulling makes a lot of noise in the water and the smoke can become harsh much quicker without one of these. Throw on a diffuser and kill the noise and let the coal do it's thing with little interaction.
unfortunately I can't get it to fit on my Mya paragon. anybody have a solution?
I've been using this for awhile and am going to get another one with my next order. You could probably make your own diffuser with a ping pong ball but the heba is easy to install and works well for a low price. It makes the smoke smoother and makes smoking sessions really quiet and enhances the relaxing atmosphere.
Recently installed this fella, my first session with it was a nice improvement. The sound is much quieter, and the smoke & flavor was much smoother.
