Cigar Weekly

The humidor I purchased from cheaphumidors.com holds 75 to 100 cigars just won't keep the humidity up. I have tried everything even reseasoned it for 10 days and four days later it was back down to 58%. I even bought some of Vipers beads and it still does not seem to work. So guys I am looking for help . What kind would you buy? I would like to keep it in the 75 to 100 capacity and not spend a ton of money.

Thanks
Don

I would think the seal must be bad.( If your not peeking every few hours like I used to).

I would exchange...And go bigger.

Dave at cheaphumidors is pretty easy to deal with. Email him and let him know what's going on.

You get what you pay for. My belief is getting a cabinet humidor that you can keep boxes in, makes life alot easier.

Is your hygrometer accurate?

I've seen some absolutely gorgeous humis this X-mas season, but have managed to restrain myself!

you need to go first class when your're dealing with quality cigars. Bob Staebell humidors; the best.
