El-Badia Fantom Shisha: sculpted aluminium built for performance
The El-Badia Fantom shisha is a 48 cm aluminium shisha that pairs a carefully crafted look with genuine engineering. Designed for enthusiasts who want a model that's as beautiful as it is capable, it stands out as a real decorative object, equally at home in a living room or behind the bar of a shisha lounge. At El-Badia, shisha specialists since 1991, we chose it for its rare balance of modern design and advanced features.
A sophisticated design on a NEO MINI glass base
This model sits on a NEO MINI-style glass base whose flared foot delivers excellent stability while adding a touch of elegance. Its coloured insert reveals the central downstem and creates an eye-catching visual effect. The clean, contemporary aluminium build makes this shisha a decorative piece in its own right, every bit as much as a session tool.
The hidden purge, an innovation as discreet as it is effective
One of the Fantom's most striking features is its hidden purge. Invisible at rest, it only appears when you blow through the hose, clearing smoke efficiently without ever breaking the shisha's clean lines. You refresh your session in a single breath while keeping a crisp, elegant look.
A customisable draw thanks to the removable diffuser
The Fantom comes with a removable diffuser that lets you choose between a light draw and a heavy draw. With the diffuser fitted, the pull becomes softer and quieter; removed, the draw gains intensity for fuller clouds. This flexibility makes it an adaptable shisha, ready to follow your mood from one session to the next.
Ceramic phunnel bowl, Kaloud-compatible
Every Fantom ships with a ceramic phunnel bowl, ideal for modern molasses and juicy tobaccos, and compatible with Kaloud-style heat management systems. This type of bowl limits juice leaking into the base and improves heat control, for more stable flavour and a more consistent session, with dense clouds achieved without any complicated setup.
Silicone hose and matching mouthpiece for comfortable use
The set includes a silicone hose and a mouthpiece matching the body, for a comfortable grip and a perfectly coordinated finish. Silicone gives a smooth draw, rinses easily under water and stands up well to heavy use, guaranteeing durability and everyday comfort, session after session.
A mid-size shisha, high-performing and good-looking
At 48 cm, the Fantom sits in the mid-size range: imposing enough to deliver great sessions, compact enough to stay easy to set up and store. It brings together exactly what fans of an aluminium shisha with a hidden purge and a medium format are looking for: performance, modularity and real visual presence.
For home users and professionals
Thanks to its aluminium construction and complete kit, this shisha suits home users and professionals alike. At home, it turns every session into a refined moment without forcing you to pile up accessories from the start. In a shisha bar or lounge, it wins people over with its bold look, its ready-to-use convenience and its reliability service after service.

Expert tips for the perfect session
To get the best from your Fantom, start with the diffuser fitted to enjoy a soft draw, then remove it if you prefer more intense pulls. Fill the phunnel bowl without packing the molasses too tightly so air and heat can circulate, and let your coals come up to temperature for a few minutes before drawing normally. Finally, remember to use the hidden purge during your session to refresh the smoke, and rinse the silicone hose regularly to keep a clean draw and crisp flavour.

Regular maintenance is essential to ensure that your shisha lasts as long as possible and always provides a pleasant experience. Here are a few tips to keep your shisha in top condition:
- Cleaning after each use
Rinse the vase in hot water immediately after use. Use a special shisha brush to remove any residue. Also clean the body of the shisha with a special brush designed specifically to reach hard-to-reach areas. Find our different shisha cleaning products and shisha brushes here.
- Deep cleaning
For a more thorough clean, we recommend using EL-BADIA SHISHA CLEANER Powder. This powerful solution offers several benefits: it effectively removes stubborn stains, unwanted odors and lime deposits. It disinfects your hookah for a more hygienic experience and makes your hookah shine, restoring its original shine.
To use Shisha Cleaner, dilute two teaspoons of powder in 1 litre of hot water. Immerse your shisha parts in this solution for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clean water. This method ensures thorough cleaning and optimum disinfection of your shisha.
- Maintenance of the various parts
Firebox: Empty it after each use and clean it with a sponge and liquid soap.
Pipe: Make sure it is washable, then rinse it with water and shake it to remove any residue.
Seals: Simply rinse with water, or soak briefly in soapy water if necessary.
By following these regular maintenance tips, you'll considerably extend the life of your shisha while guaranteeing quality sessions every time you use it.
