NEEDONE150 Count Cabinet with Cooling Electric Temperature Control System, Made with Spanish Cedar Wood Shelves & Drawer with Hygrometer, Gift for Men

I looked for a long time for a smaller humidor before I decided on this one. I don’t know that it would hold 300 cigars unless I really jammed them in, but for my rotating stock between 75 and 120, it’s perfect. Also, I used some leftover cedar trays to hold my cigars so they wouldn’t roll around. Otherwise, the temp is rock-solid, and the humidity retention is perfect. It gives off a quiet, unobtrusive hum, and it looks really sharp. For the price and as my first humidor after being in tuppers for years, I’m really thrilled. Just always to one size bigger than you think you need!

I live in Central Texas and it gets both hot and humid in the summer. You can only manage it with air conditioning so much without having to compromise your comfort so this made sense for me. Given the fair price compared to other options I had to give it a try.1 - Underestimate the volume of cigars it will hold. I've got about 200-250 in there at any one time but with the recommendation to keep it no more than 80% full, it pretty much maxes out there. But still holds quite a bit for the reasonable footprint.2 - Like other reviewers are mentioning, quirk-wise the shelves/drawer won't slide out even a little bit unless you open the door fully (180 degrees open). So make sure you have the space to the right of the door.3 - The shelves don't have any fencing on the sides or back. I'm sure they're meant to hold boxes but done that way you won't be able to hold much in there. I 3D printed my own shelves but there are other ways. You can also get additional drawers here on Amazon but they will increase your cost by quite a bit. You can always get creative here.4 - The included hygrometer in the door is not bad as far as a relative measure but its accuracy is a little iffy. I have calibrated smart wifi ones from Govee that I use along with Boveda packs to manage it all. So far no issues and the humidity hasn't drifted at all. The instructions say to give it a few days for the cedar to season but I went a little longer and waited a week before stocking it.5 - I'd say put it on a table. If its on the ground do lots of squats.6 - The door glass is reflective and the light is pretty useless. But that's also to keep out UV light and heat so there is a reason for it. Unless its just there for showing off some fancy sticks it shouldn't matter that much.7 - It is very quiet. I hardly notice any sound. Not a bother by any means.8 - The temperature digital gauge is not quite accurate. But like the built in hygrometer you can still really use it as a relative measure. Figure if you have it set at a certain number and you find that your sticks are in good condition and smoke well, that's probably around your target number. I'm finding that the inside of the cabinet is 2-3 degrees cooler than indicated which is just fine for me. Like I mentioned earlier I have Govees.9 - Will mention this because I noticed others did... I didn't notice any kind of "smells" when I got it, other than the natural spanish cedar smell of the inserts.I'm not knocking any stars off because I have no reason to. Even if the temp and humidity measures are not perfectly accurate, they still both hold great. Even if the door has to be fully opened to slide anything out, if you plan for it then why not. The price is definitely right and my cigars are now in a great environment and should keep for a long time.

Update: I purchased a second drawer (via the NEEDONE store) and with the second drawer and the 2 shelves (shelves over drawers) the humidor can hold 150 cigars, of course depending on size. I currently have 125 in mine of various gauge and length with room to spare. I could squeeze in another 25 but it would be pretty stuffed. It continues to do an awesome job at holding temp, 6 boveda packs (65%) hold the humidity (4 would be adequate), and the plastic smell is all but gone! I would happily give this humidor 5 stars *if* it came with 2 drawers and 2 shelves to begin with. That second drawer really makes a big difference.Original Review: I've had this up and running for a week now and so far I am very happy with it. It holds a good amount of cigars, though difficult to see it holding 150 unless maybe stocked with smaller gauge cigars. For me personally it holds enough. I have probably around 80 cigars in it currently with some room to spare.It does have a plastic smell that seems to be a common issue with these humidors. I cleaned it out, added some spanish cedar blocks, a cotton ball of almond extract, and a little coffee during seasoning. It definitely helped but didn't completely get rid of it. It's not overwhelming but I can still smell it. Time will tell if my cigars pick up any of it, though I don't expect they will. I expect it'll get less and less detectable with time. It's already far better than it was.It looks nice from the outside and doesn't take up a bunch of space. The drawer inside is nice, the shelves are ok. A second drawer and one shelf seems more ideal, at least for me. I will probably pick up another drawer before long. The digital hygrometer is garbage. It's off 12 units. At least it's a consistent 12 lol. A separate digital hygrometer is a must. The light also leaves something to desire. If you stock the top shelf that's all you'll see. But this isn't much of an issue for me. Due to the layout, you wouldn't get a great view of all your sticks even with better lighting. All I need to see is my hygrometer.So far it's been excellent at holding humidity level. I set mine to 70 degrees and use 4-65% Boveda packs (size 60). My numbers have been a very consistent 69.4-70 degrees and 64-66% humidity day and night. That's perfect for me. That said, I also don't open it very often. At most once a day or every other day.So clearly it's not perfect, but it's a good humidor (so far) for what it is. It's pretty quiet and so far has done a great job at keeping my cigars happy. If your cigar collection is over 100 (unless small gauge cigars) I would consider a larger model.

I use two wineadors one for my aging smokes and one for my everyday smokes. They look good extra drawers are easy to find(amazon,walmart.com,wineadors.com). Humidity and temp is solid as a rock(great seal). I do wish it was for wide and less deep, but a very minor complaint that's just my preference.Good wineador if your debating on switching from a traditional humidor I 100% recommend this one as someone who has had few different ones and has several friends with various competing models.

Keeps my cigars at 69% and 70 degrees. I recommend Needone to any cigar aficionado.

I'm not sure what to do with this humidor? the thermostat just keeps it at a very cold temperature. so I am plugged it for fear that my cigars are getting too cold. I even placed it in the warmest room in the house but to no avail. Seems like I could have bought a mini fridge and just not plugged in and would have the same result.
