Smart, sleek technology to save my best cigars

A brilliant idea and design. And easy to use b I’m happy with it but only had it for two days. Seems to be working great. Maybe you guys should ask about the product in a week or two? The reviews I saw on amazon totally sold me on the product! Very excited to have it.

Pros
  • Looks good sturdy. Great fast delivery 1 day.
Cons
  • The product doesn't work as well with high-quality cigars

Looks great feels sturdy and you can hardly hear it

So far product looks great plugged in is working and waiting for it to have a few weeks to get more information on it Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • Works great. The ribbon cable fits humidor lid perfectly.
Cons
  • The product doesn't work efficiently when exposed to direct sunlight

YOU WILL READ SIMILAR STORY IN OTHER REVIEWS. It appears that at least 1 in 5 units are defective. I purchased in November 2018. Worked fine for a short period of time. In January 2019, I placed my trusted hygrometer in my humidor (I rotate my hygrometer among several humidors) and it registered 59%. I checked HumidCup, it's humidity gauge registered over 80%. The fan does not run if it registered over 80%. I tried to adjust (up to 5% up or down), no improvement. The fan does not run and the…

Pros
  • Product works very well and maintains humidity great!
Cons
  • The humidifier tends to leak, which could ruin your precious cigars

Holds at 50% for my opinion

Worked for a while, but Does not hold humidity above 50% now. Cannot even calibrate it low enough to click on. Cigars are pretty much unsmokable.

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • The lid doesn't seal tightly, which can affect the humidity inside the humidor

Does the job Well! for my opinion

This device is very easy to use. You don't have to worry about spills; the sponge in the unit is solid. Keeps humidity consistent which is great for aging. A bit pricier than boveda packs but over the long run you'll save because you won't have to use any other humidification product.

Pros
  • Awesome design, well made!! I am impressed!!
Cons
  • The humidifier needs to be refilled frequently, which can be inconvenient

Well made, great value

Exceeded my expectations thus far.Product seems well made and the packaging is Apple-like.Simple to install and use.It was within a degree of my existing hygrometerI have not heard the fan yet.It is smaller than the other models, so I can stock more cigars.

Pros
  • It’s a lil hard to work with accuracy. Like the size good read out.
Cons
  • Stopped working after 6 months. LED readout works, but isn't accurate and the fan stopped.

Happy with purchase

Product fits in my cigar humidor well. Flat power cable is useful to allow lid to seal. Humidity appears nominal That's my review!

Pros
  • I have this in a 250 capacity NewAir humidor and it works great.
Cons
  • The container is a bit bulky compared to other humidifiers, making it difficult to fit the cigars in

Customer Service Came Thru

My initial review was this was not accurate. When I wrote to customer service they replaced the unit. Has been working going on a year now.

Pros
  • No
Cons
  • The product doesn't work well in humid climates

Great company to do business with.

I love this thing! Great company and great product. I’ve had my unit for 3 years now it’s worked perfectly till two months ago when the cable wasn’t making contact with the input anymore. I wrote the company about the problem within a week a completely new cord was sent free of charge I’m definitely giving them more of my business in the future.

Pros
  • Works great!!! I highly recommend it!!!
Cons
  • The weight of the product can affect the humidity inside the humidor

I bought this for my wood/glass tower humidor; however, it never did what it was supposed to do. The reading are always inaccurate by almost 15rh. I thought, maybe it's the type of humidor I have, that's giving it issues. I bought an electronic humidor with temp control, and it's still not doing anything. I have an accurate rh thermometer and it's still reading 15rh off the actual humidity.

Pros
  • Price was good, It was easy to set up and started working right away
Cons
  • The humidifier doesn't work well under low temperatures

Didn’t completel6 fix the issue

I bought this because I found it hard to maintain h7midity especially in OH during winter and dry ambient air. But I have 4 shelves in my humidor and after extensive experiments I’ve found that with this turned all the way up on bottom , my bottom shelf is 70%, the next is 67, the next going up 65 and the top where my favs are is 62-63% humidity. In order to remedy that I’ve gone to the manufacturer and ordered their external fan . So far it’s been an awful long time and I haven’t heard…

Pros
  • Still going strong after one year of use.
Cons
  • The humidifier is difficult to clean

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works as expected so I am quite pleased.

Only suggestion I would make is to make the power cord completely a ribbon connector. That would simplify positioning the unit more easily.

Pros
  • April 26, 2017
Cons
  • The product can be difficult to install

Only good for one year!

I really liked this unit and thought it was a great alternative to an Oasis. I liked it so much I even bought a second one for my other humidor. Unfortunately, after one year the unit stopped working. Display is dead and fan is not spinning. I tried the power cable from the other working unit to rule out the cable. Took it apart and noticed the board went bad. Really sucks as for 100 bucks I would expect it to last more than just a year. Let’s see how much longer the other one will run.Oh and…

Pros
  • Health & Household
Cons
  • It can be challenging to find replacement sponges for the humidifier

Better than Cigar Oasis

I have this in a NewAir CC-300H and it is working great. I have been using it for just over a month and still have not had to refill it. I tried a Cigar Oasis first. The Cigar Oasis looked nicer, but its built in hygrometer was so far off that it couldn't even be calibrated. The HumiCup's hygrometer is spot on.

Pros
  • Unisex-adult
Cons
  • The humidifier doesn't work as well with low-quality cigars

Fan stopped working after 2 months.

This is garbage. It worked fine for a 2 months and fan doesn't work but good think the digital reader still does. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Works great...I have two!
Cons
  • The sponge can sometimes fall apart after only a few uses

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Digital is easier for my opinion

Works well without the hassle. I was tired of using a soaking humidifier. Didn't work the way I wanted. Digital is much easier

Pros
  • Household Supplies
Cons
  • The sponge can sometimes leave behind debris in the humidor

Stress free to keep my cigars healthy

It works great. I’m not near my humidor much to hear any water notifications. However. It works better than any other setup I’ve tried to keep my humidor at 65-70 consistently without having to worry. I love it.

Pros
  • Keeps set humidity without fluctuations
Cons
  • The sponge needs to be replaced more often than with other humidifiers

Most everything on this was great except the fan didn't last ten min. Due to the attention to detail with every other aspect of this product, I'm going to assume that this was a one-time event. Some feedback on the product though. Please have a button to disable the alarm. If the humidity is low and we add water, do we have to listen to the beep until the humidity rises? Also, it would be nice if the humidity alarm was optional. Not all of us car if we do to 69%. Finally, the flat cable needs…

Pros
  • Price performance size
Cons
  • It's not suitable for humidors bigger than 8 cubic feet

Fresh cigars rock! - my new review

If this product works as great as it's design it will be a home run. Having a fresh cigar with the right moisture content is the best. Check this product out.

Pros
  • Great for keeping the cigars at the correct humidity, you need an electronic humidifier.
Cons
  • The humidifier doesn't come with a warranty

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good unit at a great price

This is a great product and will certainly meet/exceed your expectations. It will keep your humidor balanced and your cigars in good shape!

Pros
  • Cigars, product adaptability very good for my needs to fit in humidor
Cons
  • Takes up a lot of space inside the humidor
