Greetings...

Mine's says "Made in China" on the bottom. But, it seems to work well. So far.

What do you have?

(I searched around but didn't see another thread about this in my quick search.)

Well I have one from Tiffany's and one from Coleman. Hate to say which one is more dependable.

My humidors are made by Don Salvatore. I really like their quality and craftsmanship.

As for the cooladors, I'm not sure who makes those.

I have one my wife bought for me off ebay. It works well. I also have one that I made from 100 year old oak. A friend gave me the wood and I wanted to make something special out of it.

I have a 100 count, 5 Vegas that I won here on cbid, actually two of 'em, one with gars the other without. Awesome, glossy, unique, spanish cedar is intoxicating. Not sure who the maker is, but it's been working fine ever since it arrived home.
Cbid is now my home page :-)

My first one is a a unique 70 count(or so) made out of ebony/cedar on craigslist for 100 and half full of cigars, mostly LGCs. It was made for the original owner by a friend. Wife made him give it up.

My second is a large cigar box/case made for Estelo Padron's 75th anniversary. Came full of Hoyos. Just added a Credo. Think it came from CI.

My third is a Don Salvatore 120 count, again from craigslist for 35. It came from somebody who went nuts on CBID(like the rest of us) and then decided cigars was not for him.

Been pretty lucky though haven't seen such deals for over a year now..

One from Cuban Crafters, one from whoever makes the CAO Black humi, one Abbey, those are the desktops. I have one end table type I won here but it doesn't say who makes it. Then a Coleman and the Gurkha Chest.

Indulgence. Looks great in the living room.

Also a few 100ct humis. Suprisingly, no coolerdors. I dont need that kind of temptation in my life. It would be all downhill from there.

I had mine custom built by the guys from Two Brothers from Another Mother Humidor Co. It'll hold a couple hundred boxes. I don't plan on adding any more but I did hang on to the cooler just in case...

My primary storage is a Pennsylvania House oak china cabinet that I sealed and added spanish cedar shelves. It holds 50-plus boxes. My tabletops include a custom built glass-top and birdseye maple that hold about 50. I also have a pewter cigar canister that was made in Germany that holds about 25. The last is a Sam's club special that holds 50-75 and has a drawer for cutters and other paraphenalia.

Daniel Marshall Vavona Burl High Gloss (165 ct. - really can't even come close to this number & I put beads in it)
Daniel Marshall Macanudo Travel Humidor (hate the cigars but I only paid $20 for it - use it as a dry box)
Couple of 50 & 100 ct. generic humidors that I keep NC's in.

I will say that I owned (and outgrew) an El Grande Humidor that I purchased here and it was an excellent box. I gave it away to a brother in need when I got the 2000.

I have 2 indulgences, a treasure dome, a Duomo Display Dome Humidor, an El Diablo Humidor, a Sterling 150 Display Humidor, a 50 count box, a tuperdor and 2 colossal humidors from a competitor. I have 3 cigar oasis and way too many cigars..lol It takes lots of effort to keep the humidity correct! If i knew the collection would have grown as it did, i would have just bought a humidor cabinet

You did it wrong. Should have got the 280. You will need a cooler as well for backup soon enough

Yeah, I caught the CC-100 on a clearance sale. Only reason I got it.

But you're right. I just sent a bunch of stuff to Cigars for Warriors just so I could "make room". My house stays to warm to keep cigars in a regular humidor or cooler

I want to order a 2nd drawer from Wineador for it. The drawers make much better use of the space than the shelves

I have a sexy CAO Black Humidor that holds 150 I think. Not sure who made it for them but it is gorgeous. All black with a white/black splatter paint top. Works great.

Plus my sterilite tub.
