Buy 1 Gallon Stogies Large Cigar Humidor Solution Propylene Glycol 50/50 Pre-mixed Now
The product keeps the cigars at 70, but it was staying there anyway, but at least now I should not get mold in the cotton filler like material in the hydrator.

Honeywell 50300 True HEPA Round Air Purifier
This is a review for the 50300 which is similar to the 50250.
This air cleaner really puts out the volume of clean air on high speed, but it is loud. You can not talk or hear over it.
The slow speed is you can hear talking and TV over. Then turn it on high at night for white noice or when you leave the room.
If you want quiet, try the 17005n which does not have the volume (200 sq. ft room) but is quiet enough for to hold business meetings or home use.I don't believe this model is still being made I think it has been replaced by the 50250. The unit is large but powerful. I have it in my bedroom and I constantly have it running on low. I have a cat and his litter box is in the bedroom as well (no other place for it in my small 740 sq. foot condo). If I turn it on the highest speed, I can't hear myself think, the middle speed is better but I still don't think I could sleep with it on that speed, but the low speed produces a nice amount of "white noise" to drown out the next door neighbor's music. I believe to get the "true" advertised cleaning efficiency, the unit needs to be running on the highest speed.
That being said, I'd say it was a good unit, but the expense of the filters is a big negative for me. First off, I replace my pre-filter once a month. I have to it goes from black to totally white and when the pre-filter becomes too dirty, the efficiency of the unit is lost. Plus, I start noticing alot more dust buildup in the area where it sits. The pre-filters cost around $12.00 each and I've never found any "deals" on them. So that's almost $150/year right there.
The next item is the HEPA filter. I know it says this is a permanent filter that never needs replaced (so why do they make replacements for it?), and all you need to do is vacuum it, and I'd like to believe that, but I don't. I think Honeywell started losing big business when machines like the Iconic Breeze came out and others that advertised "no expensive filters to replace". I see nothing different with this HEPA filter and the HEPA filter for the Honeywell purifier I replaced with this one, so my guess is Honeywell, in an attempt to make their units more price-worthy, started telling people these HEPA filters were "permanent" filters and only needed vacuumed. Someone please explain to me how vacuuming this HEPA filter is removing any of that buried dirt which has changed the color of the inside of the filter from white when I first bought it to dark gray. And if it was some kind of cleanable filter, exactly where is this vacuuming supposed to take place??? In a sealed closet? Because that's the only way the transfer of dirt and allergans would be able to take place without all the "gunk" blowing right back into your home and up your nose (and then distributed by your vacuum cleaner the next time you vacuum unless you get a new bag right away. It just doesn't make sense and I'm very skeptical of a HEPA filter that can be vacuumed back to a clean state -never heard of this before with any HEPA filter. My vacuum has a HEPA filter in it but it still needs replaced. So, although the unit does a decent job, I have to say just like the majority of air purifiers, the replacement filter costs associated with it really make it an expensive thing to run. I'm looking into BlueAir (I think that's the name) air purifiers which are rated higher than Honeywells.

My allergies are just a constantly slight annoyance since moving to Texas. I'm always on the stuffy side...random sneeze attacks, drippy nose. I'm always breathing out of my mouth. My husband insisted we buy this filter, and I had no faith it would help at all, because I couldn't imagine a FAN basically could clear the air of whatever bothers me. However, this works. When I'm stuffy, I turn on the hepa filter, and within 20 minutes of it being on high, I can turn it to low because I will be able to breathe again through my nose. It just really cleans the air. This was worth the money. I bought it to make my husband happy, but now it has actually helped me. I hope other people try it to find relief.Read Best Reviews of Honeywell 50300 True HEPA Round Air Purifier Here
Lots of air purifiers get a bum rap due to the noise. I like to sleep with this unit about 3 feet from me on the low setting. The thing about the noise is that it is a different pitch than a normal fan, but it is definately a large amount of white noise. I don't mind it.The two things that I can say for sure. One is that it really does work. The dust in any room that you put this in will go down quickly.
The other thing that I can say is that I sleep better because of this machine. No doubt about it. I have much less congestion when I wake up and I am told I snore less.
Knowing what I know now, I would definately buy this product again with no hesitation.Can't go wrong with a honeywell. Bought this one for mine and my daughters very bad allergies. With a few days I noticed a difference. Works great and so simple to assemble and operate. Only downfall is it is loud on the highest setting, But good for falling asleep too.

Quality Importers Versailles 100 Cigar Glass Top Humidor, High Gloss Cherry Finish
Buy Quality Importers Versailles 100 Cigar Glass Top Humidor, High Gloss Cherry Finish Now
This humidor is a very nice piece. High quality and heavy construction. Spanish cedar lined interior is flawless. Took about a week and a half to season and stabilize humidity. Im using the included pad humidifier with a glycol solution and the humidity maintains at consistent 70%. The analog hygrometer that comes with it looks cool, but isn't very accurate out of the box. However, it is adjustable with a screwdriver. I bought a digital and adjusted the analog to match. Now it actually reads within +/2% of the digital. Still giving this thing 5 stars.Lovely humidor. Appears to be well constructed and very handsome. Lid feels solid and heavy and seals well. However, a star gets lost for the less-than-useless hygrometer that comes with it. If you decide to purchase this model, just go ahead and add a good quality digital hygrometer to your cart as well, cause the one that comes with this ain't gonna tell you the humidity in your box.Want Quality Importers Versailles 100 Cigar Glass Top Humidor, High Gloss Cherry Finish Discount?
My husband is just starting to collect cigars and we needed somewhere to store them. Being new to it, I wanted something reasonably priced but still attractive. This humidor offered both and we're happy.Tuesday, July 1, 2014

Humidity Bead System® (Extra Large, 65% RH for up to 300 Cigars)
the plastic brick is sturdier than most and has a fairly small footprint. would have been 5 stars but the shipping costs are a little high. If you're having trouble maintaining humidity in your humidor beads are the solution.A lot smaller than I expected we will see how it works but I expected it to be much larger.

Sunpentown Mini Dehumidifier with TiO2 and UV light
I only can see a few issues with this device.
1. To me it is loud. Very loud. While this isn't a problem for me due to where it is at, if you are looking to put this somewhere where you need or want quiet like a bedroom, I'd try to find something else. preferably fan-less if possible. (I can drown it out very easily with all the entertainment electronics I run throughout the apartment, but I could imagine it being a problem for someone trying to sleep with this thing running in the same room.
2. I don't care for the tank design. The one time I tried to empty the tank I spilled a good amount of the water into the machine just trying to pull the tank out. So I'd same make sure it's unplugged before emptying the tank. Also the hose comes off easily when I move the unit around which leads to another problem I have with the design. The hose connects to the very top of the tank, meaning the tank has to be full before it starts to drain through the hose. I can see why they did it this way but I would have preferred an option to go without a tank at all.
Of course they are just minor gripes to me. The product does its job well and I have yet to find anything else even close price-wise that can compete.I purchased this baby for a small, humid bedroom in a very humid climate to help the A/C unit remove moisture. It removes maybe a cup a day which probably helps overall, but does not make a tremendous difference in comfort level. It works steadily, but is probably too small for the task.
UPDATE: After a few months on effort, it began to make a loud, constant noise so I discontinued use.
UPDATE #2: Last summer was so hot and humid that I decided to give this unit one more chance. It takes a little finessing, but it is possible to stop the noise if you keep jiggling and thumping it. Once it runs quietly for a minute or two, it is usually good to go until you turn it off to empty the reservoir.

I purchased this mini dehumidifier after my "Eva-Dry" lasted less than a year. It was great for the short time I had it (3 months!) Yesterday the motor started a loud rumble and sounds as if it is about to grind itself to a halt.This is my last dehumidifier purchase. Sunpentown Mini Dehumidifier is a waste of money.
Since American corporations insist on having their products "manufactured" in Chinaappliances seldom last a year. I refuse to keep buying inferior products over and over again.
Now I shop for products that are physically made In the US, or Germany.

I bought this dehumidifier for a 200feet square college room. It sucks out nothing, takes at least a week of non stop air-sucking before it fills up with water. Completely useless and ridiculous! Instead we bout a 50pint dehumidifier which is only two times the price and it divided by two the humidity in less than a day. It took out more water in 5h than the Sunpentown in one week.Want Sunpentown Mini Dehumidifier with TiO2 and UV light Discount?
I purchased this piece of garbage from Discounts Jungle. With a 1-yr warranty, I thought "Great!" It stopped working after 6 months and when I contacted the seller today, they said "Too bad. We only give you 30 days. Contact the manufacturer." I contacted Sunpentown, the manufacturer, and they said "Discounts Jungle and Amazon.com are selling USED items and we won't honor the warranty..." So if you want cheap stuff that doesn't work, buy from Discounts Jungle and Sunpentown and Amazon.Since the site says "Shipped and sold by Amazon.com," I expected Amazon to step up. Wrong. I got a $60 credit but that's all.
If I could give it a LESS than one star rating, I would. I DO give Discounts Jungle and Sunpentown a negative 10 rating for selling inferior products and not standing behind their stated warranty.
I am really, REALLY disappointed in Amazon. I have never had a problem with Amazon before but this will make me think twice about buying from them again.
