Probably particle board or worse. The good thing about that (if there is) it has no grain, less prone to warp. Construction probably crap

Use the money to buy cigars. Your Tupperware is a lot better than that item. The only end tables you should consider are Staebell's ( No longer made ) Avello's or similar. Only AMERICAN made when it come to furniture.

According to the description, "features a rich teak finish & is lined with solid spanish cedar."
It also has a to of 4 and 5 star reviews in every one of the 4 categories. So unless they took the time to fake that many reviews, people seem extremely happy with it. I dont know, that's why I asked if anyone was possibly familiar with the company and the quality of their humidors. If it really holds 600 cigars, my entire collection would easily fit into it, with some room to spare, and for $143 I can take out their humidifiers and put in a Cigar Oasis Excel with bluetooth built in. They even offer them as an upgrade option, so at least I know it would fit and be suitable. Just hoping someone has some first hand experience with the company as $300 plus another $143 for the humidifier is a really big outlay for me. In fact it would be a month and a half's worth of my pension. I friggin love cigars |

Does Teak finish mean it is teak ( I bet no ) or just the color of teak ?

Personally, I would never buy a humidor that has a giant hole cut out of it for a cheap analog hygrometer. Just seems to me that it ruins the seal and makes it ugly. I agree with above posts that your Tupperware and coolidor solutions are better. Better to spend a bit more on something of much higher quality if possible. Avallo may have an entry level end table unit, their quality is very good for the money.

As with most things, you get what you pay for. Comparing that price with what well made humidors cost almost screams substandard construction and or materials. Completely agree that tupperdors and coolerdors provide storage that would be superior in both humidification and cost effectiveness. Spend your money on cigars.
