bradleyclark86 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 So I finally got it: my dream hookah. And it didn't disappoint. This thing is an absolute beast. It's approximately 45" tall. And it's the perfect compliment to my cobra hose. It's a Magdy Zidan XXL Nefertiti.[attachment=2817:hose_head.jpg] [attachment=2818:complete_hookah.jpg]I finally ordered a phunnel. I think it's a small...perhaps a medium. I ordered it from hookah-shisha.com if that helps any.[attachment=2819:phunnel.jpg]Although it can't be seen, I got a diffuser too. Overall, this is a great hookah. It smokes really well. It's absolutely smooth. All my friends love it. The common first reaction is usually "HOLY SHIT!! THAT IS HUGE!!" And then they smoke it, and it just goes uphill from there. So I had to come on here and show it off to everyone. Enjoy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modisess Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) damn that thing is tall with the phunnel on, any stability issues though? Edited January 9, 2009 by modisess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slingham Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 You should make a sick ass table around the hookah for stability. It looks awesome, don't get me wrong, but I'm seeing that tipping soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradleyclark86 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 Not as bad as you might think. As long as it's sitting on a level surface, it's solid as a rock. Like if a room is carpeted, I'll set it on a hard back book (usually my textbook from welding class cause it's a good 1,000 pages thick). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soldier92 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 That thing's sweet. I like the double ash tray It's like two hookahs put together. That's one of those hookahs that you have to name it's so special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inino Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 very nice, i like my hookahs nice and tall too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsfan6216 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 That would not last in my house.... I have a cat that likes to jump the coals (wierd cat but whatever). It barely makes it over my 33" Pharonie with a small phunnel on top, something that large would just be all sorts of bad news.....Great buy tho.... very nice looking hookah.

I know H-S carries a similar model, but I like the one in the OP better The hose I got at a local hookah shop. They had several in a "smaller" version and in different colors, but then there was also this one that was about double in size. I bought it right there on the spot. Knowing my luck, if I came back, it wouldn't have been there. The ones you mentioned on H-S are the exact same smallers ones I found at that shop. My only complaint on the hose is that the part that plugs into the stem is a tad too big. It fits, but...not as well as the hose that came with the hookah. It's minor details though. If I'm camped out in my beanbag, watching a movie, keeping movement to a minimum, then I barely notice.QUOTE (mitchell8621 @ Jan 9 2009, 07:28 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>where did you get this beautiful hookah?Here's the URL to where I bought it (I tried linking it, but the edit window froze)http://www.hookahkings.com/hookahs/egyptia...h/prod_227.htmlThey call it an Odyssey, but it's called a Nefertiti on MZ's official site. One of the freebies is a wind cover. That adds another inch or two to the height...heh heh.QUOTE (Stuie @ Jan 9 2009, 09:13 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Snoopy and someone else has one, i forget who, but they love them and they never mention stability issues, except cleaning is a bear I am sure.Congrats on the new hookah!Yeah, very little stability issues. The bottom inch or so of the vase is very wide set; almost as wide as the ash trays so it's very stable. I just set it on a book if the room is carpeted.

I just set it on a book if the room is carpeted.Duel ashtray is cool, I was going to buy that model instead of mine...but too big for back and forth transport(college student)...thought it was a multi-piece stem, not one. Anywho, I like the coal lighting idea there...never thought of it...I thought that it served as an extra catch for missed ash AND a hose rest when no one is puffing I thought it would have stability issues...I tend to have them a tiny bit with my model that is 1ft shorter...but then again, I'm using a bulky KM hose on it...gives it a slight lean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjako Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Lol, and I thought my 36" I'm selling was huge...lol.Is it heavy? I've noticed due to the construction it weighs itself down (and rotates), so snaggings not a problem for tipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abide Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) i have one too with a clear vase and black pieces on the stem that i picked up at Hookahstock I at scallis from the social smoke boys.He's right its pretty stable just from being heavy, i use mine on a pizza stone that i never used, cutting board works well too. Dont bother putting it on a table though, you cant reach the coals! ha ha Edited January 19, 2009 by Abide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relik Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Hookah-shisha.com has a 7 footer but still, yours is impressive. Im a big fan of the tall hookahs. Just everything about it appeals. gratz on the 44 incher (jealous). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
