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.

I have the 250 and 500 and both cant keep temp and my both units humity is all over the place. My box humidor works better than these. Im looking for another brand to buy

It will not get humidity over 60%. I have tried different methods and can’t make it work. I would not recommend this product for the price.
