What a Dilemma

Faced with a dilemma, whether to travel approx. 155 mi's round trip for this end table humi., the asking price is $250. Measures 29"H x 22"W x 25"D. It does not come with a humidification system, been looking at a few and estimate it would cost an additional $250 to $300 for the one I want. So, any opinion whether I should travel 4 hrs. round trip for an 'end table' humi that will cost a total of around $550. It's the commute that's hanging me up. Any opinions welcome!!. Suspect by the time I decide it will be sold, story of my life. :ss

Not a bad price and 155 miles will only take you 3 hours. You'll be seasoning that thing tonight. :tu
 
If it's the money... buy a big cooler and a pound of beads. You'll have twice the space and half the recharging of beads issues. Of course it lacks the "bling factor". Then again you can't smoke bling factor. :D
 
I have another end table humi purchased some 10yrs ago, really like the humidification setup, add distilled water when the light indicates, and once every 12-18 months change the wick filter, other than that, don't pay any attn. to it.
 
Oh soo close, just about made the trip but decided to browse the internet and came across a humidor, that was very simular to the one for sale. The package comes with a free humidification sys. (Hydra Electronic), or options: Oasis XL for an addition $10, or $20 for the Oasis XL Plus. Seems this would be better deal, by the time I purchased a humidifications system for the humi in pics it would amount to same price including S&H. Now need to read up on pros-cons of the Oasis XL Plus humidification system. :ss

Appreciate the input, had it not been that I could not get excited about traveling the distance I would have pulled the trigger. That being said, beginning to like the 'cooler' and 'beads' idea. I can store the extra boxes in the cooler and transfer them to the 'bling box' and let them rest before serving.:tu
 
I think the Hydra unit would work better than the Oasis or XL. It has gotten better reviews and you can order the fan kit to mount 2 external fans elsewhere in the humidor that come on when the Hydra does.
