Coolers work great....and if you decide to go a different route, they'll keep your beer cold too.

I've got a humidor, and then I built a coolidor because I started outgrowing my humidor.

Save the money and just buy a cooler and build one. Spend that money that you saved on more smokes!

Amen to that one! Do yourself a favor and set up a coolidor for yourself... you won't be disappointed. Roger.

I would suggest for a first humidor get something that will hold at least 100 sticks or more then get a cooler for overflow.
A humidor rated to hold 100 sticks only holds around 70 or so cigars of various sizes. " get the largest you can to start with your going to out grow it fast".

Temperature control is very vital. The ideal temperature for a humidor is 65 - 70 degrees, You look for humidors that can maintain this temperature.

Ummmm....the vast majority of humidors don't have temperature control. They rely on the ambient temp of the room. That said, have a room that maintains temperature.

ETA, plus lchoke was a douchebag.

Ok, dudette. Again, there's an advertising section.

Also, show me one humi on your shameless second self promotion link that controls temperature.
