Wineador vs Cabinet Humidor

There really is no comparison if money is not an issue.

My aristocrat is the best piece of furniture I have in my house. It is displayed front and center in my living room. Mine holds temperature just as well as the vinotemp did, if not better. The vinotemp was not really designed specifically for cigars.

Obviously, my aristocrat cost a lot more than my $50 Vinotemp (on sale at Target, usually $200 back in the day) and it holds a lot more as well.

So if money is not an issue and you want to display your humidor in the house, I would consider a cabinet.

If you just want a temperature controlled humidor to hold 10-20 boxes in the corner of a room, then a winedor is the way to go.

It has been a while since I had the vinotemp, so I do not remember if it was noisy. The cooling units on the aristocrat definitely make noise when they come on. I am used to it after 4+ years, but it seemed a little noisy at first.

Thank you for the info- I am gonna treat myself!!

Thank you!
