Xikar is great! on my review.

Good new cigar juice, this stuff is awesome. I used to use distilled water or sterile water and would have to monitor my humidor closely. Not with this stuff throw in humicare beads with it and you have almost a self maintaining humidor!

Pros
  • Easy to use. Use every time solution. Won't plug humidifiers.
Cons
  • May have limited availability in some regions

Good product (typical of my history with Xikar products)

Good product (typical of my history with Xikar products). Good shipping (Prime eligible). Seal intact. Same solution I've used for years. Humidor holds steady at around 72 percent humidity. All around, it was the product I wanted and received in the timeframe I preferred/expected. This is the first time I have puchased glycol solution online (usually purchased at the tobacconist), but I will most likely utilize this outlet for the next time I am running low on solution, for convenience sake…

Pros
  • Only brand I’ll ever buy overall very satisfied
Cons
  • May not effectively maintain humidity in larger humidors

Same as the cigar shop, but cheaper

Same content and quality as buying it at the local cigar shop, but measurably cheaper and more convenient to have it shipped to you. No complaints.

Pros
  • Prevents warping, cracking, and other damages to cigars caused by fluctuating humidity
Cons
  • May be prone to developing mold or bacteria when used improperly

If you have a humidor and humidifier you need to use this solution.

Don't try to skimp and save money by using RO water or Distilled Water. The Propylene Glycol solution makes all the difference.

Pros
  • Have been using this product for a while now, always keeps my cigars in good condition, never dry.
Cons
  • May not work well in certain regions with extreme weather conditions

Good solution for maintaining long-term humidity levels.

Use this to fill a drymistat tube and a cheap moisture canister in a small humidor - nothing fancy. Bought this on the recommendation of a friend who is a cigar aficionado with a much larger humidor. It has kept the moisture around 70% for months without any attention paid to it. The humidor sees very infrequent access so this works well to keep all the cigars I brought back from our Dominican vacation from drying out!

Pros
  • Preserves the integrity of cigars for a longer shelf life
Cons
  • May require additional guidance from tutorials or manuals

Better than expected

Used only a little of this and it has lasted for a month and is still going. My humidity is actually holding around 75-80. When I open my case it airs out pretty fast and this solution kicks in and brings it right back up very quickly. Excellent buy. Don't hesitate to get it.

Pros
  • Works great with crystal humidifier
Cons
  • May not come with clear instructions for use

This is the stuff!: my feedback

My local cigar aficionado sells this exact product but not only is this a larger bottle but what a great value. May cause rust on the humidifier system!

Pros
  • It's keeping the cigars in pretty good humidity so far. Will update in a few more weeks.
Cons
  • May cause rust on the humidifier system

I use this with an Xikar 250 cigar humidifier in a 100 cigar hunidor and *still* need to add/use the stock humidifier with distilled water and a dash of this stuff every week or so to keep the humidity reading right around 70. In lieu of anything else, I'm reasonably satified overall. It takes about 1/3 to 1/2 of this bottle to "fill" the Xikar 250 humidifier.

Pros
  • Helps prevent mold and bacterial growth in humidors
Cons
  • May require constant attention and adjustment to maintain effectiveness

Simply performs! for my opinion

I was using distilled water. Switched to Xikar Humidifier Solution and no more mold in my humidor. I got the first signs of mold and cleaned the device (humidifier) I was using with bleach, dried it severe days and refilled it with Xdikar Solution and no more mold. I'm sold!

Pros
  • Product is great but one of the bottles leaked during shipping so I only got about 60% of the naterial
Cons
  • May have a short shelf life

As Designed best in my review

Together with the Xikar humidifier, this works very well. The crystalline-looking gell cells absorb the solution and gradually humidifies the humidor, tops for the cigar smoker.

Pros
  • Improves the flavor and aroma of your cigars
Cons
  • May cause headaches or other physical discomfort

Excellent product with no noticeable downside effects

Xikar works very well for my Humidor. The Cigars stay fresh, and smoke well. Excellent product with no noticeable downside effects.Thanks

Pros
  • Perfect for a humidor. Can’t go wrong with the Xikar brand! Works perfectly as designed and intended.
Cons
  • May leave residue on cigars if not properly applied

Amazing works like magic

Amazing works like magic, I was about to throw some cigars as they dried out and I failed to revive them. I got this solution together with theXikar Humidifier crystal gel case, this combination is perfect.

Pros
  • Pre-mixed for convenience.
Cons
  • May be difficult to find replacement bottles when needed

good, i think? on my review.

Great value, but only keeps my humidor at 72 and not at 70. Not sure if that is only this product or all, hence this is my first experience with the product.

Pros
  • Packed Well Shipped Fast Good Price
Cons
  • May not work well with certain types of humidifiers

Pure Humidity in my review

This solution does the trick. Keeps cigars nice and moist, and I don't have to refill my humidifier every week like I used too. There is no taint to the flavor of the smoke either.

Pros
  • So easy to use
Cons
  • May corrode or damage certain materials over time

Make your humidor nearly worry-free

Unless you enjoy a cigar every day, you probably don't think about humidification very often. This solution enables your humidor to be quite a bit more low maintenance. (I pair this with a Xikar Humistone and cannot speak about its performance apart from that unit.) You'll only need one humidor full of cigars that have dried because of your negligence to make you see that this solution is worth the cost. I give a cursory glance at the humidity in my humidor every couple of weeks. I can't…

Pros
  • Works as advertised- keeps my cigars nice and appetizing.
Cons
  • May be messy or sticky when spilled

xikar humidifier solution

This stuff works pretty well. Although, I'm in Jersey, so the temperature, house heating, and ventilation in the winter puts a strain on my humidor keeping a steady 70/70 even with the xikar gels and the solution in the humidor. I use this plus the regular humidifier that came with the humidor when the rh drops in the box and it does keep the box within the normally recommended 65-73 rh.

Pros
  • Cigar Accessories & Humidors
Cons
  • May require frequent maintenance to avoid buildup of mold or bacteria

Works Great. on my review.

I've used Xikar Fluid in my humidors for years. Never had a problem with it.Some people complained about the bottles they ordered from Revain. There was nothing wrong with mine. They said the tamper proof seal was broken under the cap. I've seen that on many bottles bought from various places both online and in stores. It's never been a problem for me. I just don't think Xikar seals them very well in the first place.

Pros
  • It works well
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in travel humidors

Beats water for my opinion

Using in my 100 cigar box and has been keeping it at a tidy 75 degs with very little deviation. Actually bringing some of my older hand rolled cigars back to life. The solution beats H2O hands down. Recharge with solution seems to last a 6 to 8 weeks, easily.

Pros
  • Superior to using distilled water alone, which can result in fluctuating humidity levels
Cons
  • May require frequent recalibration for accurate readings

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great! No more ruined cigars.

Works perfectly. I added this to three Drymistat gel tubes and within 2 hours my humidor was at a perfect 70% humidity. For information, I have a humidor that holds about 50 cigars and it was completely full. Three gel tubes was the proper amount of gel tubes to use for 50 sticks.

Pros
  • Great solution for helping maintain proper moisture and PH in your humidor.
Cons
  • May be difficult to find in local stores

Keeps smokes perfect!

At first I was a little of a skeptic about this keeping my cigars at a 70%. I use to just use distilled water in my humidifier but it just wasn't doing the job. So I decided to give this a try. So far, it has done a great job! Will be buying this in the future for sure!

Pros
  • Made with high-quality ingredients that won't harm your cigars
Cons
  • May not work well with non-Xikar humidifier systems
