Just curious if anyone has had an exceptional experience with a humidor? Have/had a magic box that maintained the same (or lowest deviation in) temperature/humidty and everything you took out of it smoked great?

I'm having a real good experience so far with the Vicksburg I got for Christmas.

I have two inexpensive desktops, and while they do alright, nothing come close so far to my coolerdor. Of course it looks like, well, a cooler. With a few home made credos with PG solution, or beads, the RH stays ROCK steady, even with me opening it 2 times a day to smell that heavenly aroma. For some reason the cedar/tobacco smell is stronger than in my desktops.

48 qt. rubbermaid cooler'dor with a Cigar Oasis Plus. Hasn't budged off 69% (+/-1%) since the day I started it up 14 months ago. Only have had to add distilled water to the humidifier once, but it's due to be checked again.

I was gifted a Vicksburg around Christmas and have found it to hold humidity very well. Excellent humi.
