Thanks guys for your input. I have looked at as few of a large wineadors and the cost is just under what a monolith 1200c would cost, after you build spanish cedar selves etc. Living in Victoria BC I am not too worried about heat or humidity. It rarely gets above 22 degrees and humidity averages around 50%. Still I would like to know the reliability of these units. However the more I probe into these the more I'll stay with the tried and true units .
The unit I am looking at is similar to the one in this link

With all those drawers and no door(s) to cover the front I would worry about the seal. I am not saying that this is a bad product or that the drawers would not seal well, but not having seen it in person, that is what I would worry about...

Also, with tall cabinets you can have fluctuation's in RH between the top and the bottom. A small fan or two can take care of that, but it is also something to be aware of.

My first thought as well, Michael.

Didn't think about that! This is my first big humidor so I need something that will hold around 800 to 1500 cigars.
