After much shopping and soul searching and more shopping, I settled on this one.
It is much bigger than I thought it would be.
Its a Valencia 150 count three drawer style. I know, it's not big enough, but there is a coolidor in my future for eventual box purchases and such (as my student income allows). I really wanted a show off piece first though, and since my current cigar inventory is three whole sticks (it was four, til I smoked a fantastic RP Edge Maduro to celebrate the humi procurement) I figured this fella would be a good start.
I purchased the Humi from cheaphumidors.com, and am more than satisfied with that site. I bought it as an imperfect for $75 and crossed my fingers. Upon arrival inspection, the only thing wrong with it was the brass nameplate that it came with was scratched pretty bad. Thats fine though, cause I wasn't going to use the nameplate anyway.
Really, this box is pristine and perfect. No scratches or dents anywhere. I couldn't be more satisfied with it. Shipping was super fast too. Ordered it Sunday and it arrived Wednesday.
I'm, seasoning it now, and still have to calibrate the analog hygrometer. Eventually, I want to put a digital in it. As soon as the humidity stabilizes, my three sticks will have a fine new home.
Oh, and I ordered 4 oz of 65% Heartfelt beads last night. They seem to have a good reputation with you guys, and I bow to your experience.
I just wanted to share my pretty new humidor and let you all know how well cheaphumidors treated me. I'm still pretty excited with it. Filling it up should be a really fun time.
Thanks for all the info I've gotten from all your past posts. This site has been a great help.
