Gentleman, thank you for the quick and concise responses!
And thanks to the fella's who shared the pics!
They truly are works of art.

Vin, I for one hope you don't get a taller humi.
There's something about you crawling on your hands and knees......

I will be contacting Bob in the next few days.
I still have to decide between the M plus 25 or the MXT 19.

Thanks again boys and if you have anything else to add please do so.

Everyone pretty much nailed it, Dom.

When I ordered my end table, my wife was very involved in the choosing outside aesthetics - wood, trim, etc. The interior configuration was entirely up to me. She is quite pleased with the quality and beauty of the piece of furniture we now own.

I have beads in mine. Not necessarily because I need them but I had them and I figured it couldn't hurt.

The initial humi had a very loud circulating fan. I contacted Bob and he mentioned he had a number of reported noise issues with the latest batch. He said some newer, quieter ones were on order and he would send one to me as soon as he got them. The new fan is so quiet, I had to open the humidor to be sure it was running.

I can't say enough good things about Bob's humidor and his quality and integrity as a craftsman. He is a pleasure to work with.

Here is mine. I bought it off another brother. It holds rock solid humidity:

So I have the M plus 25, if you are considering this size, I would definitely grab some string and map out the dimensions on the floor where you think it is going to go. I didn't think 6 inches would make a huge difference but it does. My humidor is more square than I had thought it would be.

Personally, if I was to do it over again, I would probably get something that was a foot taller and not as deep. So something that is 5 ft tall instead of 4 ft tall.

I actually use beads in mine and not the water reservoirs. When I first got it in the summer, I could not get the RH down with water in the system, so I use about two pounds of beads and my humidor is usually 62-64%, but I do have the temp control.

This also adds another issue. There is a drain for the cooling fans that empties into one of the reservoirs. So it is hard to pull out the bottom shelf as I have to reach behind and pull out the tube before the shelf can be pulled out.

You get used to the fans after a couple of days. I think you end up tuning them out.

I haven't thought about capacity, I think mine holds at least 1600 to 1700 cigars.

I would just lay out the dimensions and get what you think works best for the room.
