- Does it come with a humidifier and hygrometer?
- Yes. It ships with a humidifier and an analog hygrometer mounted in the lid, so no separate parts are needed to start.
- How many cigars does it hold?
- It is a compact desktop box, so expect roughly 25 to 50 cigars depending on ring gauge. Larger vitolas cut that number.
- Is the hygrometer accurate?
- The analog hygrometer is the most common complaint. Calibrate it with a salt test, and plan on a digital hygrometer if you want reliable readings.
- Is the carbon fiber real?
- No. It is a carbon-fiber-look finish over a wood body. The interior is lined with Spanish cedar.
- Do I need to season it before use?
- Yes. Wipe the cedar with distilled water or use a seasoning pack and let it stabilize for several days before adding cigars.
- Is it good for a first humidor?
- It works as a starter box because it includes the basics and looks good. Serious collectors will want a larger unit with a digital hygrometer and a tighter seal.
- Where is the Bey-Berk Carbon Fiber Wood Cigar Humidor cheapest?
- At Gilt, for $159.99, as of our latest check.
