I agree with the cooler idea. You can pick up some massive $150 quart coolers for around $70 each, and get some beads for RH control. From my expierence, many of the lower end cabinets aren't worth the hassle. They aren't well built, the seal on the door isn't that good, and they can be a royal pain in the butt when it comes to maintaining a constant RH.

If you really want a nice cabinet, one that will last a lifetime with no issues, go the cooler route for now and save for a temp and RH controlled Aristocrat. That said, it won't be cheap. Depending on the size and options, you could be talking over $2,000.
