Vino? yes/no

Myles,
In your climate you really dont NEED a Vino (they only cool they dont heat).

The only reason I have one is becuase for the price I got it ($50) I couldnt even buy a cooler with similar storage capacity. I dont even have mine plugged in. If I had to pay full price (around $200 here I think) I would have saved my money and put it towards a cabinet humidor instead.

For the amount of sticks you currently have I would hold off. Spend the $100 on some great sticks. If you run out of space you could always use a temporary tupperdor. You already have some practice with those!

HA! you're the best Moe! In the winter, sure its cold, but in the summer we see temps of 80-90 with 90-100% humidity, thats sort of why i was lookin at these.

And for everyone else, just to clarify, its not that im in dire straights financially, its more that im a cheap jew and dont like spending money unless i have a surplus of money! :P

Thanks Myles, we get those temps down this way too... and hotter! I keep my vino in the basement and it says pretty cool down there... around 65 in the summer. If you use A/C and keep your house at around 70 then the outdoor temp shouldnt be an issue... but hey, it could be a big problem too!
