German shishas compared

Steamulation Ultimate Gen. III, Aeon Edition 6 Lounge Plus, Amotion Valve and Alite Lounge

Steamulation Ultimate Gen. III Aeon Edition 6 Lounge Plus Cachimba Amotion Valve Cachimba Alite Lounge

German-style shishas are stainless steel with wide stems, big glass bases and a quick fitting instead of a grommet. The Steamulation Ultimate Gen. III clicks onto its base (SteamClick 360) and takes four hoses; the Aeon Edition 6 Lounge Plus (4.56 kg) and the Alite Lounge screw onto theirs and are made in Germany. The Amotion Valve (51 cm, 3.4 kg) pushes onto a gasket.

Bowls: universal on the Steamulation and Alite, a grip bowl adapter on the Aeon, and a stainless steel bowl adapter with a grommet on the Amotion.

Side by side. A dash means the maker does not state it.
