When I had a humidor it had a glass top and glass front. I didn't notice significant leaking due to the glass, and liked having the ability to decide what to smoke without opening the humidor. You just have to keep it out of sunlight. When my cousin lived with me it would have been nice if my fridge had a viewport so he wouldn't stand there with the fridge door open for 20 minutes deciding what salsa to use for his burrito.

I don't know that I completely agree, but I found interesting his thoughts on conditioning a humidor and a "tight" versus not so tight lid seal...

The fit is snug, certainly not loose.

Why did you edit your reply from this?

I have a Michael Dixon Model-E in Spalted Maple. It is absolutely gorgeous. The hardware and craftsmanship are second to none and the humidor regularly maintains a perfect 70%.

The price for what you're getting is almost unbeatable. Furthermore, the customer service could not be better as you are likely to get the man himself when ringing the number on the website.

I highly reccommend checking out his website. Really nice guy.

Did you forget about your previuos post telling us all how great those humidors are?

Are you affiliated with Michael Dixon?
