Cave à cigares électrique Newair x Boveda

I am happy with this purchase. It was packaged well, and even arrived a day early. After seasoning the humidor, I did put a Xikar hygrometer in it, because this unit does not have one. It does have temperature control, and a cool light. I live in Michigan, and sometimes my home is around 60 degrees. My temperature on the humidor is holding well at 70. The shelves are more durable than the Newair CC-300 I used to own ( those were stapled together, and fell apart easily). I do like the Boveda holders that slide under the racks. The pegs are also a nice gesture, if they fit into the holes properly. Are there areas for improvement….Yes! Is it better than the last model …Yes! Is it fairly priced…Yes! Does it do what it’s intended to do ….Yes!

Best humidor I’ve ever owned. I don’t use the slots for above da packs due to their high costs but use a small container with gel beads and polyethylene glycol. The circulating fan keeps the humidity constant. Cigars are always fresh and ready to smoke. In the Southern heat this keeps them cool and protected. Now I have three old desk top types that are empty.

Humidity level inconsistent with unjustified swings, the humidity pack holders take too much space therefore reducing available space for cigars.

Temperature is not dropping down to set temp. Ambient temp in room is 72 set it to 69 temperature reading is marking 76. Have it stored with plenty of room in all sides.

I have had the unit for a couple of months & wanted to wait to see if it functioned as advertised. The humidor has worked perfectly with temp & humidity being spot-on @ 69 degrees & 65% humidity. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that Newair does not offer a shelf/drawer to rep-lace the large bottom drawer. I suspect the single large drawer was added so the company can advertise the unit as a 500-count humidar. I do not order boxes of cigars & the tall drawer is a complete waste of space. There is a built-in rail on the unit to accommodate a shelf/drawer & I cannot see why Newair does not offer its customers the opportunity to customize the unit to their satisfaction as the top shelves/drawer does not fit the lowest rail.
