I'm sure someone does. I don't, being that I've never seen one let alone used one.

I bought one for each of my kids about 4-5 years ago. They're still using them, good seals on both. Keeps humidity very well.

I have one of their 160 count humidors, and it has a good seal. My only issue is that the lock stopped working about a year ago, but I think that was just a freak occurrence. I leave it unlocked and it still works fine (lid is heavy).

Thanks for the feedback! I went ahead and ordered one to replace my ancient cheapie desktop from 20 years ago as the seal has gone bad.

Late to the party. A Savoy 200 count was my first humidor 15 years ago. I still have it and it still looks like new, and functions like new. I have no idea if they are made to the same quality today, but if they are you should have no issues.

Bought one and returned it. Cheap Chinese humidor not much different than the others. Maybe they were better back when.

I’m sorry to hear that. I bought mine several years ago. Try Craftsman’s Bench, instead. I’ve bought three desktops on sale from Northwoods and Famous smoke shop in the last 2 years and I’ve been happy with all of them.
