+1 for coolers, I have two 48 litre coolers and have no wood ones anymore after struggling to keep humidity balanced.

My experience is similar. I’ve had 4 or 5 wood humidors and only one has been useful over time. Despite beautiful craftsmanship, the moisture inside warps them.

I use coolers for the majority of my storage and the remaining desktop humidor in my smoking area.

The only working humidor was a Savoy brand, similar to this one:

Good to hear. I misse this thread before, but would’ve suggested the same, going with coolers. I had a tower. While it looked cool, I had to relegate it to my basement because I don’t super cool my house in the summer and was concerned with beetles. Lost the tower when my basement flooded. Switched to coolers and haven’t looked back. Much cheaper, and they float!
