My New Purchase

[area51]

SO my mission was accomplished so to speak. My humidor fits perfectly in the wine cooler. I'm not sure if I will keep it however. In order for it to fit I had to place the wine cooler on its side but it's elevated so air can still flow through. What are your thoughts?

I might have also misread the page and they were never in stock. I dunno.

Placing the appliance on it's side can cause issues with proper drainage of the condensation from the cooler.

If it were me, and I had to have a cooler, I'd return it and get a larger one.

My thoughts? Honestly I'm with everybody else. Take it back (Lowe's has a pretty good return policy), wait for a Compact Appliance sale, buy an EdgeStar 28 bottle for twice as much money, getting easily 3-4 times as much storage space. Your humidor will sit nicely in there with plenty more room for boxes you may decide to buy with all your new extra storage space

Or don't wait for CA to have a sale. Target sells the Avanti 28 bottle for ~$200. I used credit card rewards, got some Target gift cards, and ended up only paying $50 for the thing. Alternatively, look on craigslist and see if anybody in your area is selling a Vinotemp, Edgestar, or Avanti 28 bottle cooler, they all work great
