Premium egyptian wind cover
Purchased from HJ

It's a good wind cover. I've used this indoor and outdoor, and is effective for indoor heat management. The thing I like the most about this windcover is that the handle doesn't get hot, and it is flexible in case you want to shape the handle any way you see fit. The only downside to this is that it doesn't fit over my small egyptian bowl very well. It isn't tall enough for it. But then again, that's what a Tangiers sized windcover is for. Sometimes the bowl gets too hot when using it indoors, but all I have to do is take the windcover off, so no real concern there. Other than that, this windcover is awesome.
10/10.

[color="#ff0000"][size="3"][b]Pagoda Windcover[/b][/size][/color]

[b]Height:[/b] 5-34"
[b]Base Opening:[/b] 4-3/4"

[b]Construction: [/b]Thick Metal
[b]Look: [/b]Great Looking

[b]Price:[/b] $12.95

[b]Purchased From: [/b]Hookah-Shisha.com

[b]Overall: [/b]7/10 It's a great looking windcover and does a great job. Barely fits on small Mya Saray Hookahs but it won't work with: most bowls and any Khalil Mamoon combo. The big problem: No handle. Big downside in my book.

[b]Overall: [/b]7/10 It’s a great looking windcover and does a great job. Barely fits on small Mya Saray Hookahs but it work on Khalil Mamoon Hookahs with smaller bowls, but not phunnels. Another Big complaint: No Handle. I like the look, but I do wish I acted a year or two ago and got a real Taj, and not this Havana Brand Knock off.

[b]Overall: [/b]9/10 This is one of my oldest windcovers. It’s gotten a little discolored over the years. Works on just about any situation except the dreaded KM/Phunnel Combo. I love this little cover.

[b]Overall: [/b]8/10 Before I found the Phunnel bowl, this was my go to bowl. Word to the wise these are not dishwasher safe the Metal harness around the bowl will rust. This is a great bowl for non Tangiers smokers. I still can’t get Tangiers not to burn in this when it’s fully setup. Make sure this is the last bowl you use for the night. Because it’s tricky to get off the hookah till it cools off.

No complaints, and it does what the tittle says. It was much bigger than I had expected(thats what she said), and looks kinda funny on my hookah but still classy.[/color]

[b]Overall:[/b] 10/10 This is the most awesome windcover. Why? I can use it on any bowl and hookah combination especially the Khalil Mamoon and Tangiers Phunnel combination. I pretty much use this on everything, just because I can. Only exception is when I travel.

[b]Overall:[/b] 9/10 Great little hookah windcover. It’s cheap looking like MZ windcover but it’s great fits on all the phunnel bowls. This is now my new travel windcover. This little thing may not be first class in looks but it is first class in function and it doesn’t hide your beautiful bowl.

Overall:[/b] 4/10 This looks nice but not practical. On most bowls this windcover sits with all the holes are below where the bowl rim is. I have seen this cover modded with more holes all the way up to the top if this came like that it would be higher rated. Using this it gets super hot with no handle so that’s a huge downside.

[b]Overall:[/b] 10/10 This a great windcover for non Tangiers Bowls. The huge opening supplies great air flow without overheating the bowl. It’s also the classiest looking windcover I have seen. If you don’t smoke out of phunnels anytime, this is the best windcover out there.

[b]Overall:[/b] 10/10 This is one of my favorite windcovers. It looks great. I have had it for a long time before I reviewed it because of rumors of discoloration. I don’t see it. I highly recommend this windcover. For your all Quad or Tri Metal Hookahs it’s a must.

[b]Overall:[/b] 7/10 I bought this a long time ago before Tangiers Sized windcovers came out. They are decent but still not tall enough for the KM/Phunnel combo. It’s a rather good windcover. Forgot I even had it. But it’s a good one for non Phunnel bowls on KMs or Phunnels on any other pipes.
