I am quickly running out of room in my small 50 ct humidor and am looking to expand. I buy a lot of 5-ers and singles so I would like something with multiple drawers to easily sort things out. How well do these type of humi's hold their RH?
Here is a link to an example of what I am talking about.

Thanks for the help

First: I have no personal experience with these type humidors.

But I've considered building one. I haven't because:

1. I think it would be difficult to get a good seal on the drawers.

2. More individual pieces to warp and screw up drawer alignment.

3. Where does the humidifier go? And how does it evenly humidify the entire box? Seems like the full drawers would mess that up. Doesn't appear to be any open area around them.

I do not like that one on ebay it doesn't look like a good seal. I got a five drawer Thompsons and LOVE IT. Absoluely it is great. They got a seven drawer pretty cheap I bought mine from ebay cheap. I highly recommend it.
Go to thompsons site check out thier dors. I love mine

agree with mannish. T may not be everyone's favorite, but they have good humis at good prices!

My father has that Humi. It's called the Napoleon. Your right, not a very good seal. 250 my

maybe 75 tops.
