Get them custom, or go with a cooler or Edgestar.

Hey Bill, how many non-custom made humidors have you owned to come to that conclusion?

1, but if it failed so bad what would possess me to buy another?

Doesn't seem logical. Especially after less than 6 months.

I mean if someone wants to give me free $$$$$...I'll try more out...Until then I cannot afford to waste my $$$.

So sometime in the next month look for pictures of my AK totally said piece of $hit humidor.

So don't buy another. Just don't make broad statements that if it's not custom made it's crap. That is misleading to newer members.

That doesn't mean it's not true...that desktop gave me nothing but hell...never held proper humidity and molded out in 6 months. The bottom was stuck to my f*cking carpet....not cool......Seriously....it ruined the carpet. It was nice carpet!

Still never came out.

It must have had a leak somewhere.....

The obvious point is poor craftsmanship.

I don't find my post misleading at all....I'll post a picture of the bottom if you would like. I have no idea how it happened....but it wasn't right and it WAS the humidor.

However it is up to you, if you believe my posts are misleading and harmful to new members, I welcome you to remove them. I will not complain one damn bit.

You are missing my point. I'm not saying the ONE humidor you had was poorly made. I'm saying your statement that if a humidor is not custom made, it's crap is bullsh!t.

I'm not going to edit/delete your posts.

Just because you got a bad one Bill does not mean other non-custom humidors will be the same. There are lots of different manufacturers out there and some of them are quite good.

I was just making the point...I've never had a bad cooler no?

Also they are much cheaper and hold much more.

I don't think anyone would agree that a desktop will last forever. Even if they are quality you outgrow them easily.

I know for a fact Mr Pnoon has an Aristocrat

Peter ain't rocking no desktop

im not bill but personally ive had 1(i now have a cooler). one day i opened the lid on my footlocker and it fell off. It had also never held RH properly. i then took a dive knife to the rest of it and it was fiber board with a 1/16" lining of cedar.

*im not calling out famous as i didnt buy it from them but many places sell it*

Im not saying all non-custom humidors are crap but buyer beware on the cheap ones.
