Post and Rate your humidor(s)

Browsing the threads and noticing a consitent question - what humidor?

How about we each post our humidor, what we paid for it and where we bought it (if you desire), likes/dislikes.

What do you think? I'll start:

Humidor #1
I got the "Presidente" off of CigarBid for $56 + shipping which I think was a good deal: Link
In it I have 65% beads in an aluminum humidifier

Likes:
It was very cheap!
It works well as my "dry box"
Holds humidity pretty well
I like the glass top for "displaying the wares", put my favorites on top to oogle.
Overall suits it's purpose very well


Dislikes:
The hygrometer is worthless, doesn't even move, permantly stuck on 70. And no real way to replace it, it's embedded.
The key/lock assembly is very cheap and I'm worried it's going to break someday.
Made in China...
Oh, and it's too small

Humidor #2
Actually it's just an igloo cooler, picked up on sale at Kohl's for $12 I think. Can't remember how many quarts it has - maybe 70? Has 70% beads in it in a beadsock.

Likes:
Ultra-cheap storage
Great for long-term storage. At least I've been told
That's about it...

Dislikes:
It's a cooler - loss of style points

Humidor #3
A small "lunch box" sized cooler where I keep my flavoured cigars for the ladies at work. Has 70% beads in a pyrex dish with cheesecloth rubber banded around the top.

Likes:
Ultra-cheap storage
Keeps the stinkies separate

Dislikes:
It's a cooler - loss of style points


Will post pics later
