Can Someone Id These Hookahs?


Recommended Posts

Okay, so I just was looking to buy some egyptian hookahs online, and since shipping from US is a major explosion in my wallet, I was looking at some Indian websites. These pictures are from a website I came across, and they claim that these are either KM's or MZ's. But being a noob, I don't know if they are legit, or just duping people like me.

So if someone can ID these for me, I'd be really grateful.

I ask because I wasn't sure. :) MZ's are great pipes I assume? I was asking because I was just hopeless of finding good egyptian pipes here (at least with a brand). And this website has them listed with prices........and great prices at that!!

I've never seen a Magdy Zidan or a KM pipe in person so I just didn't know if they even have them, because these are not listed with their names and that doesn't help either. :) Thanks for your help. I am surely gonna snag one of these and have one ready when my tangiers order goes through!

One other query, would you happen to know which one of these 5 is the best choice? Thanks a ton!

Thanks Chris! :) I am actually digging the double pearl so I am gonna make a trip in a day or two and get me that! I am actually confused about the prices, the double pearl is available there for about $75, where as the website linked here by drozdoff carries it for about $118.

Could it be a MZ knock off? If so, is there a way to tell the real deal from the fake ones? Like mya has the name etched on their hookahs?

They'll have the MZ symbol on the tray. I tried looking it up, but no luck. Maybe someone who owns one will post a pic of theirs.

I can tell they are all MZs

MZ makes a great hookah, but my single pear I owned(just sold it) was not welded at the heart, it had a silicone seal that went bad...I've heard other stories of this, only with the single pear and not other models

Well they had these listed at their website but they don't sell them online apparently. So I will be going to their store and checking these out personally before buying. Thanks for the tip though! I will keep an eye on bad welding jobs.

its right where the stem meets the heart...even if it goes bad it doesn't affect the way the hookah smokes, its aesthetics...it causes the stem to spin in place

I have three MZ's. They smoke every bit as good as my KM's. I was very disappointed when I heard we weren't going to be able to get them anymore, because as far as I'm concerned they definitely rank among the best of Egyptian hookahs. And I love the dome design with the tray. Because it fits snugly and doesn't slide around. You will not be disappointed in your purchase of one.

Thanks for that information Rani. I am hoping that they turn out to not be knock-offs so I can get one. :)

I actually am a bit suspicious now, I was just talking to the guy on phone....and tried bargaining with him (I am broke. :D).....and he agreed to sell me one for $65? That's a $10 cut for a customer ON PHONE!

Well, will know once I visit the damn place. *fingers and toes crossed*

John is running a 25% off special until Sunday. If you like the pear, this will at least guarantee quality. The green one would end up being about $80 shipped :)
