Choosing the right Shisha

Shisha materials in comparison

An important factor in the choice of shisha is the shisha material. Each material has its advantages and disadvantages. Important decision criteria when buying a shisha are durability, weight and purchase price. The guarantee can vary for different shisha materials.

Stainless steel shisha as a quality feature

Stainless steel shishas are known for their durability. The hardness of stainless steel ensures that these stainless steel pipes are immune to scratches. One of the biggest advantages of stainless steel is that it is odourless and tasteless. For shisha smokers, who smoke many different types of tobacco, stainless steel pipes are the first choice. Another advantage is that Amy pipes made of stainless steel comes with a large accessory package such as integrated stainless steel molasses catches, unscrewable diffusers, grinding adapters, four hose connections and other extras. Amy pipes made of stainless steel have a five-year product guarantee.

Some of the most popular stainless steel shishas are the Amy Deluxe Feather Steel SS05, the small version Amy Little Feather and the Amy Deluxe Diamond.

Aluminium Shisha for more mobility

Aluminium shishas score points with a low purchase price from 60 euros. Aluminium pipes are popular because they score with a light weight. Especially customers who travel a lot with their shisha are turning to aluminium pipes or travel shishas, which are mainly made of aluminium. Aluminium shishas are available with and without colour coatings. Compared to stainless steel shishas, models made of soft aluminium are more susceptible to scratches. Another advantage of aluminium shishas are the built-in connections. Many of these models have an integrated smoke column cut. This grinding enables the integration of molasse catchers without additional adapters. The hose connection is also often ground on these models, which makes it easy to remove the hose. Aluminium shishas have a 2 year warranty.

Carbon Shisha bundles material properties

Amy Deluxe Carbon Shishas are the newest and most popular models besides stainless steel. They combine the advantages of stainless steel and aluminium. Carbon Shishas have a low weight. At the same time they are extremely resistant, so that scratches don't stand a chance and the shishas have a long life expectancy. With the Amy Deluxe Carbonica range we have created a series that combines perfect material properties with an attractive accessory package. Shisha's of the Carbonica series convince with top equipment such as ground joint adapters, noble carbon mouthpieces, integrated diffusers and four hose connections. The smoke column in these models is made of stainless steel with carbon coating. Amy Deluxe Carbonica models have a five-year warranty.

Brass Shisha for tradition lovers

Brass shishas are among the oldest shisha models and are still in use today. This is due to the special characteristics of brass. Pipes made of brass can absorb and intensify a tobacco taste. This is great for all shisha smokers who smoke only one flavour such as grape or apple and want this flavour as intense as possible. The purchase price also speaks for brass shishas, because these are the cheapest models on the market. Shisha beginners and fans of Tradis are well advised to use brass. Top sellers like the Amy Deluxe I need you, Amy 630 Glorious, Amy 440 Stillness or the Amy Aero X with its four connections and click system prove that brass shisha can compete with stainless steel shishas in smoking behaviour.

Conclusion: Which shisha now?

From our point of view, the optimal shisha is the one that meets your own wishes and demands. Beginners and professionals who want to enjoy the shisha for a long time are well advised to use stainless steel shishas. Shisha lovers who are often on the road should choose aluminium. People who smoke the same tobacco are well served with brass.
