    It looks good, but I haven't used one. My main thought is to realize it won't hold 250 cigars.

    Oh, sorry. I didnt mean anything offensive. I meant that i agreed with him, cuz a lot of times they only hold up to 75% if what they claimed. I didnt expect it to hold really like 250.

    Ya know, if I was just starting to buy humidors I would probably get one knowing full well I would still need another one in the future. Of course another "go-to" humidor for daily use so I would not have to keep opening the Dome and therefore keep adjusting the humidity.

    I had one for several years, actually - it was my first ¨big boy¨ humidor after moving up from the CCOM 20ct sampler pack. Bought it as an imperfect from a popular site, though I never could find the so-called ¨imperfection.¨I sold it when I left the States and, while I made a BIG profit on it, I wish I hadn´t - it´s a fantastic humidor, and I never got around to filling it all the way up (but at one point, I counted and had 189 cigars in it with room to spare). It´s as solid as it looks, and quite big - mine honestly stayed in a hall closet on a shelf, as I didn´t have anywhere in the living room big enough to display it on. Kept humidity excellently, though I did keep 4 bead tubos in it (two on the bottom, two on the trays, one on each side). Altogether, highly recommended!

    Also, this - I kept a smaller 50ct humidor on my bar as my go-to humidor.

    Like this one? Stuffed with some goodies, and they're right, it doesn't hold 250. But a great humi.
