NEEDONE Cigar Humidor 8L with Heating & Cooling Control, Quiet Thermostatic Electric Cooler Cabinet for 80 Counts with Spanish Cedar Wood Shelves & Drawer with Hygrometer, Gift for Men

Great unit, especially for the price. Keeps very stable temp and operates quietly. Have found it maintains ~70% RH with very little effort (using Boveda pack instead of the provided water dish). Lots of space for cigar storage. I made jump from desktop humidor and am very glad to have chosen 48L size for growing, but modest collection. Black design looks really good, although a little difficult to see digital hygrometer reading through the glass. Not a big deal for me since I used WiFi sensors and monitor temp & RH from my device. Be mindful that to pull out the drawers, the door needs to swing all the way open, so not ideal if you plan to position against a wall or object on the right of unit. After weeks of online research for a medium-sized unit that won’t break the bank, really pleased with this purchase.

When I opened it, the smell of cedar was just right. I had purchased extra cedar planks for the break in period, and 82% Boveda bags. Didn’t really need the extra cedar. It’s very quiet and went from 75 degrees to 65 in about 2-3 hours, where it has stayed. I have a couple other (non electrical) humidors. In Michigan the humidity and temperature can change at the drop of a hat. Boveda bags keep humidity simple, but do nothing for temperature. I’m hoping the heating element works as well as it cools. I was most concerned with sticks getting over 70 degrees however, not to worried about them getting cold- as the house is never below 65. It’s well made, about the size of a large computer tower. Not imposing. Found it referred to in numerous non-Amazon searches as an ideal quality unit for 150 sticks. The case light at the top is all but useless, as it only lights the top sticks. There is the concern of mixing too many types of sticks together and the flavors blending. This hasn’t been a problem in my other humidors unless I unwrapped sticks mixed together. I did that purposely with 2 brands and aged them that way for 2 years to infuse them with each other. The results - meh. Best to buy top sticks. Great buy so far. Will update if anything fails…. ENJOY !

Item received a day late. It was slightly damaged on the top corner of the door with a scratch. (Likely from shipping) From other reviews and images I thought it came with three shelves and the one tray with the built-in hygrometer. I only received two shelves and the deeper tray. It was packaged thoughtfully so I can not blame Needone for the scratch knowing how shipping companies are. (Can't rule them out either but in being fair will not exclusively blame them either). I have it plugged in now with Boveda seasoning packages working on the cedar. It was 75° when I plugged it in, I set the temperature to 65° and it got there in a little over an hour. This was verified with the two Govee hygrometers I added to the unit. Also I have to say this machine is truly whisper quiet. For the most part it is as advertised so far. I don't much care for the small scratch and would have loved the extra shelf. Unfortunately in life we can't always have perfection. That being stated I'm looking forward to finishing the seasoning process and loading it with some sticks. I will be back with an update after I've had time to evaluate this unit in full detail (loaded with sticks). ******************************* Update Added sticks and so far so good. The temperature maintains great as well as the RH. Just recently experienced a heatwave with indexes well above 105° with me being away a couple of those days and no AC running. The temperature maintained within a few degrees while the RH did spike due to the ambient heat. I cooled the space and it was business as usual. So far it has been a solid purchase. I will update again with a long term review in a few months...

My humidor was purchased in 2023. Everything worked fine for 2 years but it then began making a noisy hum. I feared it was the compressor since the noise was present when the fan at the BACK was NOT spinning. I contacted the company knowing it was just a bit after the 24 month warranty has passed to see if they could help. They initially said sorry, it was out of warranty but further exchange in asking their help in diagnosing the noise, they invited me to send an audio file to them so they might determine the sound. I did so and they suggested it was the INTERNAL fan. I didn't know there were TWO fans! The internal one is the one that constantly circulates air. I emptied the unit and discovered that is exactly what it was. They went above & beyond helping me and I was sent a replacement fan. This was simple to install and I would even say the replacement fan is quieter than the original when I first received the humidor. Perhaps the original fan was substandard from the beginning and simply degraded prematurely? Perhaps the corner of a 5 pack cellophane wrap worked its way past the guard and stopped the fan from spinning? I've included an image of the fan. The same unit is available on Amazon if your humidor begins to hum. this one: TX8025L12S 12V Wine Cabinet Constant Temperature Silent Cooling Fan Thank you to NeedOne customer service.

When turned on it condensates so much the outer water tray overflows and the Rh goes down to 55/50% when using 69% bóvedas (3x320gr) it's useless, have to leave it off so it holds Rh, beats the purpose of an eléctric cold/heat humidor. Failed after 2 month so can't exchange/refund. Any way to contact support from Amazon purchase? Sadly enough I bought an identical one a month before this one failed, I have my fingers crossed the 2nd one don't fail this month. Update July 2025 Failed also the room temperature is in the range needed (72F) and still, the condensation it's crazy, the tray ok the bottom overflows. Don't buy this, there are a lot of comparison with KingChii, should've bought one of those, only way to use this humidors is unplugged from power as if they were boxes, and pluggin the drain hole so they hold humidity

I’m very satisfied with my purchase. It looks classy and sleek without being gaudy. Set up was simple, just clip a couple zip ties, fill the included reservoir and you’re good to go. I chose to wipe down the interior and shelves with distilled water to remove dust and help with seasoning. Also no weird smell, just the wonderful aroma of the wooden (cedar I believe) shelves. Temp control is intuitive and seems to be accurate within .1 degrees. I live in a hot part of CA, and not having to worry about mold or beetles is a big plus. The unit is also SUPER quiet. The rH crept up quick with a PG solution, so some Boveda packs may be a good add on to keep things level especially with air being moved around (helped a lot in mine). If you have quality cigars you want to protect, but not a huge collection or budget the 8L is a perfect humidor.

I love it, works great.

I purchased one of these 16L units a few years back and it worked perfectly for about a year. One night during dinner my wife started to smell something burning and traced it to the humidor. She hurriedly unplugged. I had to open the back of the unit to check and noticed that the board had started to catch fire. If my wife wasn’t home…there’s no telling what could have happened. My wife gifted me an early Christmas gift…second 16L. This unit worked 3 months and now does not cool. Stays stuck at 78 degrees. Both fans working, power to the unit….it just stopped cooling. Needone support was of no help with the first unit. After that experience don’t even want to bother with this second one.

On receipt of this humidor I found that it was fitted with a US plug and ran on 110V mains. There was no mention of this before I bought it. I had to buy a 240V step down transformer. The lining of the humidor is plastic and there is a distinct plastic smell which did not go when I wiped the interior with distilled water. The smell is much less now but it would be better if it was wood lined. Also, the shelves don't smell like Spanish Cedar. I have Spanish Cedar liners for a non electric humidor and they have a very distinctive scent which the shelves in this humidor don't have. I can't say for certain that they are not Spanish Cedar but I have my doubts. The manual says leave cigars in their boxes. I have three empty cigar boxes and they are all too big to fit in the humidor. The manual also says that the ambient temperature of the room should be at around 25C. If I could control the ambient temperature of my rooms I would not need a temperature controlled humidor. The main reason I bought this was to be able to control the temperature of the cigar storage at night and in the winter when it gets cold. Humidity readings seem to be accurate enough, only 2 degrees out tested with a separate Xikar meter. Strangely, the temperature reading on the Xikar shows as 70F which should mean that the temperature is ideal but the cigars come out cold to the touch. The fan at the rear of the unit only blows out cold air and the shelves and the cigars get cold. Even if you put the cigars at the front of the shelves, they still get cold. It's described in the user manual as a chiller which means that it is intended to chill cigars, not keep them at 70F. I was expecting it to keep cigars at the proper temperature in cold weather, instead it chills them, though I have found that if you leave the light switched on it tends to warm up the shelves. This may be enough, but is not ideal. I would not recommend this humidor unless you live in the US and you like cold cigars, it's probably worth looking around for something this size but without so much plastic and isn't a chiller, and if you're in the UK something compatible with UK mains electrics. 12/10/2025. Further to this review: when I bought and reviewed this humidor the reviews were showing 0 reviews from the UK. Now there is a review showing from a UK customer on 31 March 2025. If I had been able to see this review I would not have bought this humidor since it needs a step down transformer for the UK. Not much point in reviews if they are going to be hidden.

Muy buen producto, al principio dude en comprarlo, debido a su país de origen y el tiempo de entrega, pero llego en perfectas condiciones y en menos tiempo de lo que me dijeron, 1 día menos, funciona al 100%, estoy mas que satisfecho con la compra, como a todos mis electrodomésticos le puse un supresor de picos especial para refrigeradores, debido a los cambios de voltaje, para que este protegido y no se descomponga en el futuro, ya que eso hecha a perder la mayoría de electrodomésticos y para después arreglarlos es imposible... gracias al vendedor

Very high quality and the temperature accurate
