My wife and I had just finished having lunch at the Black-eyed Pea restaurant in South Arlington and decided to walk across the parking lot over to Target to pick up a few items.
I was looking for a microwavable bowl with handle for heating soups and other lunch items at work when I saw this box.
Hmm, a red price tag. Wonder how much...
I figure what the heck, this is less than I paid for either of my 100 CT humidors. It came with three wooden shelves too, which I really like versus the metal wire racks I've seen in some other models. I assume it's a discontinued model that's been replaced by this one http://www.vinotemp.com/bottle-thermoelectric-wine-cooler-stainless-steel-p-514.html.
Picked it up and gave it a new home where it's now sitting while I wait for RH stabilization before storing any smokes.
When I went out to smoke, the RH had risen from 43 to 55. This was with my Heartfelt beads that I had just submerged in distilled water. When I start with something with an RH that low, I submerge half the container, pull it out and invert it and let the water spread down a bit, then shake off any excess. It's sitting on the paper plate in to catch any run off. I also threw in a couple of Humi Care water pillows to speed the process. After my smoke, I'll go back in and clean/wipe down the trays with a damp, but not wet sponge. Then looked a little dusty.
The bottom tray came from one of my humis and I may use the tray from the other one as well and just stack it vertically.
My only complaint was that it is missing one of the four screw in adjustable feet, but I'll see if I can get one from the Vinotemp web site. So far, I feel very fortunate to have stumbled upon this deal. I'll let you know how it goes...
This was one of two units they had left with this price, the other one had a little more damage to the box, but after seeing how they're packed, I doubt it has any problems.
