I notice other humidors -that look exactly like cuban crafters's humidors and are a little cheaper - are they the same as cuban crafters?

As an FYI - i own a cuban craftets humidor - I can tell you for a fact the hygrometer in mine is a POS.

One day you will reach a time in your cigar smoking evolution where RH dont mean a damn thing. Hygrometers are for the most part useless as teats on a screen door of a submarine and we all know damn well anything above 65 RH is tooooo damn wet. I hardly look at my diamond crown hygro..... except to move it from cooler to cooler to check accasionally

the hygrometer in my CC humidor - goes right threw my humidor- so if it does not seal right-my humidor does not hold anything ;)

If your hygros don't seem to work right just spend th ebucks on some heartfelt beads. I put them in all my humidors and now they all are just fine. It's worth the investment

lot of good info.

it is not that it does not work right ( but it does not) . It goes threw my humidor. since it it plastic - and falls apart easly- it might be a potentail for a leak down the road.
More then likely - when i find a nice brass one- I will replace it.

through, easily, potential, than

BTW - if you want to make sure it seals properly, may want to consider hot-glue sticking it in from the inside. Creates a good seal.

One comment on deep boxes like that is you might have to rotate the sticks more often to make sure they all get moisture (or put a Dry Mistat or Heartfelt Bead Stick in the middle of the stick pile).

Good luck.
