My humidor has betrayed me!!

Many guys here have beautiful desktops that they have owned for years.

Very true! But I might add, that for every decent desktop humidor, there are twice as many inadequate models that do a terrible job at humidifying cigars. You get what you pay for certainly....but I don't think it's coincidental that most CA members in here highly recommend scrapping a traditional desktop humidor in favor of a bag of beads and a $50.00 cooler

If they make good let me know. I'll be happy to take the broken one off your hands and even slip you a buck or few to even out your loss.

I need a second unit frankly, and got no issue with fixing one.

Drop me a PM if it all goes to Hades!

Most guys recommend scrapping a traditional desktop because of how quickly you can outgrow a humidor in this hobby.

Most guys go way too small when purchasing their first humidor, and quickly move on to a larger model, and when that is quickly outgrown they look for larger options.

Coolers are cost effective, durable, and typically have excellent seals, but can be bit of an eyesore. Desk-tops look nice, but are uni-taskers, typically more expensive, fragile (as in this case) and can have issues holding humidity.
