Liebherr XS 200

Anyone else notice this in CA? Wonder what the price is...

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Very nice...small, but nice.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I saw the same ad and went looking high and low. I haven't bothered to call the local dealers because I found it online for 2100 Euros. :jd

Considering their same size wine coolers are in that range I believe it to be accurate. For that I'd rather have an Avallo.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I contacted them and the MSRP is $2,499 and the capacity is approximately 60 cigars.

A little out of my league, especially for the small capacity...

:D


i'm not surprised, their refrigerators are about the same as Sub-Z in price...

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Nice looking but a little small for the money.


:ss

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I was looking at the same thing outta CA. Came home, looked online, found local dealers (2) in driving distance. Then noticed the price. I'm all for quality and not skimping but good grief! $2500!?!?

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Looks like all the members here with VinoTemps (made into Humidors) were way ahead of the curve!!!

Most of us have spent less than $100 for ours!!! Add digital hygrometer and beads and the cost is still under $200. For the price of the XS 200 a lot of cigars could be purchased to fill a homemade version!!!:2

It is still a cool looking "Humidor"!!!:tu

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Yeah for that price, I would rather have my avallo which stores around 100 boxes

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Is this a run-of-the-mill thermo-electric humidor or does it run on dilithium crystals? Seems an awful lot of money if the former.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I stumbled on these when I was shopping vinos and checked them out. Very nice and very well constructed but wowww are they grossly overpriced and yes very small, about 1/2 the space of a 28 bottle vino.:banger

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

They had a few of these at Big Smoke in Vegas. They looked pretty cool but there is no way they are worth $2500 IMO. I'll take my vino with Shilalas chest of drawers all day.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Hi - I have no idea if you are still an active member of this forum but your quote came up in a Google search while I was researching humidors. I understand VinoTemps wine fridges can be easily and cheaply converted into cigar humidors. Is this right and if so can you tell me how this can be done please? Thanks a lot.

Regards
Matthew

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Yes, it can be done.

Use the search button, there is a ton of info on making a wineador here at the CA.

Here is one for example.

It's pretty simple really.

Oh, and welcome to CA.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Welcome to the Asylum! You should drop by this thread (http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=7) and introduce yourself.

There are a lot of threads here with answers for this. Search is your friend :)

It's pretty easy to convert any wine cooler to a humidor:

1. Buy a wine cooler
2. Buy a digital hygrometer
3. Plug the drain hole (putty, duct tape, etc.)
4. Put hygrometer and cigars in wine cooler.
5. You now have a humidor.
6. Add beads if necessary

If you have high ambient temperatures in the room with the wine cooler then you may need to plug the wine cooler in and use the cooling unit. This is OK, but it will produce swings in RH when the cooler runs.

Also, try to get a thermoelectric wine cooler rather than one with a standard compressor.

Good luck.!

^^^^^^^^^^

Good info. :tu

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I don't understand. I counted whats in my unit and I have 190 sticks between loose in the two drawers and five boxes. It's the best thing I've ever purchased. I just have to remember to add the distilled water when the sensor goes off and to change the filter annually.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Distilled water. There is a reservoir tank at the bottom of the unit. Here is the tutorial link: https://youtu.be/NVAZIEZjN10

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

$2500 bucks!? I could buy 42 boxes of my favorite LFdC's for that much! Like we used to say on my boat: "For that price it had better come with a blow job!"
I use a cooler-dor and Heartfelt beads; cheap, holds a ton of sticks, maintenance free. :tu

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

He likes big sticks. -(P


Wow all of a sudden I feel like I should have gotten about $18,000 for my Aristocrat. :sad:

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Did it have plume?

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Yes but I licked it up. :tu

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Sweet....

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Yeah, it was a little pricey but if you spend nice coin for the cigars, then it pays to get a quality unit. So I used some of my holiday bonus to treat myself back in January 2014 and it was definitely worth it. But for a quality product, it's was really packed for shipment pretty lousy. Had to return two as they had dents in the steel finish. Liebherr should work to make that better.

Also, I'm glad I bought it when I did...for some reason, it's almost $3,000 now! I don't get that. Even I would have a tough time explaining that amount, let alone the old $2500 amount.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Just a quick follow-up on my last post...I ordered a second unit as I saw one on sale from Designer Appliances from New Jersey for $2139 plus the guy gave me a $50 coupon on top of the price with free delivery...my current unit has over 200 cigars in it and I want to make some room in case I come across more prized sticks that I need to have...well worth it!

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I'm aware this is an older thread but I thought I would chime in after my last post from 7 years ago...the Liebherr unit I have is now over 10 years old and still going strong, I have about 200 cigars in the unit. Also, this model in the USA is now discontinued but still available in Europe (Model #Zkes 453). Understandable that is is no longer sold here since there are now more refrigerator/humidor units in the market then 5 years ago, that come in various sizes and at a variey of prices that would suit one's budget.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

Thank you for the update.

Shipping cost from Europe is probably a deal breaker though.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

That was 2017. Now you might get 5 boxes. ;) :r

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

I wanted to follow up on this...I sold the second unit as i was moving from NY to Tennessee for retirement and I didn't want to crate and move both units. I kept my original and sold the newer one for about 1200...One unit holding about 200 cigars was suitable for my needs.

Re: Liebherr XS 200
 

It definately is, and it has also increased in price making it is no longer competitive to buy here in the USA. Also, from personal experience, it is not packed well for shipping. The unit I own was the third one that was delivered as the first two was badly damaged in shipping. As I said, this has served me well in 10 years. Set the temperature and humidity, add distilled water when it chimes, and change the filter annually. Oh yeah, and smoke and replace cigars...that takes a lot of work, but I will have to deal with it...:)
