    Depends on needs and budget. I got to a point I started to use my old wine fridge for cigars. No longer cooled but was a good place to store cigars (once the drain was taped up). I have thought about doing something like this to give me more storage.

    Check craigslist.com and market place for humidor and wine fridges. Hell i have even known someone who converted an old fridge into a humidor sorry I never got to see that one.

    You hit the nail on the head with the word "needs". The only space I have where I can store something like a wineador would need full temperature controls. Heat in the winter because I am not going to pay to keep my basement at 65 or 70 degrees all winter. Hell my main floor living areas we fluctuate the heat between 60 overnight and 67 during the day in the winter. I can live with that temp fluctuation with my current wooden humidor. No space for anything larger (without it costing me half of my belongings) on the main level and I don't like the idea of my sticks sitting at 52 to 57 degrees all winter.

    Well just a thought but something built to keep cold in would probably help the temps stability issue. You could test this with a small cooler and a hygrometer that tracks highs and lows of temp

    Even my end table humidor was a craigslist find i think I paid 150 to 200 for it.It has suited my needs for the pat 7-8 years

    That looks nearly identical to the 170 bottle N-finity unit I bought 5-6 years ago at a yard sale. I am extremely happy with it. The 14 shelves are not made of Spanish cedar so I keep my cigars in cigar boxes and also have 1 4" deep Spanish cedar slotted tray that holds CC's and some gifted cigars. I maintain Rh with 8 lbs of unscented silica kitty litter scattered about in aquarium bags and in cookie sheets. Zero mess. They work exactly like Heartfelt beads without the cost. 8 lbs was less than $10 and I have been using them since I bought the unit. If Rh drops a little, a few sprays of distilled water on the silica crystals and it is exactly where I want it. I probably have to spritz them twice a year and it takes maybe 2-3 minutes. I don't use the cooling since we keep our home pretty consistent year round (70-72f) and have had zero issues. Rh is maintained 62-65rh.

    I would post a pic, but I'm too stoopid to figure it out.
