Welcome to cigarsmokers.com!

This is a question that seems to have come up several times before. Remember as a newbie that the Search button is your friend.

My first humidor was a Thompson's deal. People generally don't seem to like Thompson's too much, especially their house-brand cigars, but I've been happy with the humi and it still seems like an OK deal.

There's a guy somewhere round here (MMAB?) has some every good things to say about Cuban Crafters.

Whatever you get, I'm willing to bet that once you discover cigarbid and start buying some fivers and getting in on some box splits with the Brotherhood, you'll eventually start thinking about a tupperdor/coolerdor. But even then, a nice-looking humi is not going to be wasted. You'll keep it in view for your daily smokes and keep the coolerdor out of sight for longer term/larger scale storage.
