I have the NewAir CC-300H. My wife bought it last year as a birthday gift. It was a huge step up in accuracy from the 3 desktop humidors that I was juggling previously. The biggest notice was how much LONGER my Boveda packs last now that I have a properly sealed humidor. I used to get a 1-2mo on my boveda packs in my old setup. With the NewAir, I get like 3-5 months... I keep around 275 sticks inside and just use one pack per shelf. I live in the North East, so my basement can be both warm in the summer, and cool in the winder. I've never had a problem with temp. It always stays at 69 degrees. Love NewAir's products!
I have owned this unit about 1 year. Its the older version of yours as it has the analog reader rather than digital. Very pleased with it. I seasoned it with the bovida process and added the bovida butler. Works great. I keep four 69 packs in and it maintains temperature and humidity. Added another shelf as I've found I can store more cigars if not in the box.
Thank you for sharing! Love to hear it!
DO NOT BUY NEWAIR ANYTHING
Breaks quickly&company doesnt stand behind their products.They have faulty components&they know it.When it starts beeping like crazy all day & night,there are no replacement parts to fix it,even if there is u must be an electrician&buy them again&again
I know this video is a few years old.
I purchased this exact one right after watching your video. After owning it for the last few years. I have a few questions on the temperature settings. Where and how to adjust them. I live in Nebraska. Which the temperature as well as humidity fluctuates a great deal. Summers can give us humidity as high as 80% or even higher. And our winters can get down to -20 below zero. I keep my humidor in my garage. Which is heated and cooled. As well as insulated, but, even in the winter, I find that if I keep the temperature on the humidor at 70°. my digital Gage shows that it will be almost 80%. I tried to lower or increase the temperature, but I can’t find a good number to keep it at. I find myself checking the temp temperature on the unit more often than I think I should. I looked all over For some type of tutorial about this. I’ve yet to find anything. Right now, my temperature is at 64° and I have the 69 % Bovita pack. My gauge reads 73% humidity.
Would you be able to do any type of update on this item? Or similar to it if you’re using something else now? Thanks a lot keep up the great videos!
This is great, what a fantastic product! Thank you for sharing. Many blessings my friend. ❤
This looks awesome! With winter coming my cigar room has a hard time getting over 62 degrees. This humidor is perfect solution to keep them warm. 👍👍
Totally agree!
How come there is no HVAC in that room?
Thanks for the nice review. I just ordered mines from Best Buy. ❤
Thanks 🤜🏻🤛🏻 got mine today..
I’ve had the 300c for over a year and love it. Being close to Phoenix Arizona the cooling function Is definitely needed
I have the same and ended up just unplugging it. The fan running non stop was causing it to pool water in the bottom and was having huge fluctuations in humidity. Also I had an opposite experience with new air and their customer service. Would take days to get back. Never answered. Then when they did they were no help at all. Like they didn’t know their product. Had to have the cooling heating unit replaced and they even sent the wrong part.
Oh wow, sorry to hear of your troubles with the product as well as the customer service.
THat's great!

I got mine 2 days ago I seasoned it and also cleaned the plastic inside with baking soda and distilled water let it sit for about 24hr n then came back to it took a clean sponge and wiped down the baking soda ,i guess it helps to get rid of the plastic smell but honestly it will go back to that plastic smell so i seasoned the trays and now im just waiting for the humidity level to set before i start adding my stogies inside
Hi, How many days it took for the humidity level to set?
Im about to buy a humidor myself. Been looking at several! Love you! You are such a classy lady!
Oh thank you!
For real, after watching this video I purchased one and it will be here and 3 Day. Can't wait
I have the previous version of this humidor and really like it, although the light itself isn't so great. No hope of the light making it's way down to the bottom of the unit. I have a Cigar Oasis in the bottom of mine, the cable running down the right side, held down with aluminum-backed tape. When I set up mine, I wiped down the interior and the shelves the first day, then again a day later. My only issue at this time is that I'm running out of space and need another one. I'm glad to see they have a new model as well. I was worried that they were no longer making units like this.
I love my NewAir. It's so easy to use. Works amazingly well in the altitude of Colorado. I used to have to move my cigars throughout the house to get the best temperature, but now, I have them in my basement and couldn't be happier. Boveda all the way. Seasoning was easy and now, 3 packs last me forever. Great video!
What's up Kevin,
What do you have your humidity at and does it stay consistently at that percentage?
@@kellyrose3213 Hi Kelly! I use 3 65% Boveda 60g packs and I have a consistent rh of 69%
@@KevinKoker thanks bro, my plans are to get a boveda 84% seasoning pack to season my humidor then I will take your recommendation and put three 65% packs and throw them in there after 5 days or so. Appreciate it
.✯.
✞🃏✞
´✯´
@@kellyrose3213 I seasoned it with 84% too but I had it in there for the 2 weeks. So glad I bought it. Worry free!
@@KevinKoker Thanks bro, I'll let you know how it goes in about 3weeks. Keep puffing😁🤙
Nice but I prefer to have about 20 cigars and once I get down to about 5 I buy more but yeah each his own 👍
Have the same box for a year now and love it! Bought another cedar tray for it and seasoned it with the Boveda season pack by placing the draw and all shelves in a plastic bag for 14 days. Wiped the inside down with water and baking soda to get rid of the plastic smell and then again with clear water and dry it out. Only thing I don’t like is the light as mine is blue and I’d prefer an amber light. I also replaced my analog hygrometer with a digital that fit right in.
Great to hear!
Just got it last week. I truly love it!!! Thanks for the great review!
Glad you enjoy it!
Delicia, I use a Cigar Oasis humidifier for mine. If you are storing Cubans, make sure to set it at 65 RH.
Not sure why you would “season” a coolidor, its mostly plastic with a rubber seal so there is no need to cause the wood to expand like with a wooden humidor. This type seals perfectly from the start and the wood trays would acclimate from the packs. With the boveda packs there is just no need. Wipe down any dust inside and Just throw a couple 69% 320 boveda packs and it’s ready to go immediately. I found that using the water tray would over humidify the cooler and the 320 packs was the best way to go. I’ve had the same packs in my coolidor for 5 months and they are still almost like new without reviving. You can keep the tray and once the packs start to get a little dried out put the tray in the cooler with a tiny bit of water and the packs will absorb the extra water back up and revive them.
I have had mine for over a year now. Works great I live in Michigan so we get hot and cold and this item is a must for northern area's. mine has the analog display but i update to digital one I like the new feature of the digital and the touch screen on the front on the new humidor. why the book thou just curious. This is a must have item. Great review CV and come back to Michigan soon I hope.
Thanks for sharing! The book is actually a cigar box - Saga cigars ;)
Thanks, Delicia. You did a great job, as usual, with this video! I really appreciate your review of this humidor as well as all of your videos! Thanks for the useful links too. I definitely want to get one of these humidors.
You are so welcome! Thank you so much!
for anyone wondering how many bovedas to use, they say 1 60g boveda pack for every 25 cigars of space so a 250 should have 10 even if not filled with 250 cigars
These things hold humidity extremely well. I use four of the Bovedas in my large one and they hold humidity just fine for 4-6 months
@@tacoma_jon yeah that's just the numbers boveda gives, i'm sure they are over inflated but more bovedas just means they last longer and keep RH more stable. i use around 10-60g and 1-320g in mine and haven't had to change them in over 2 years
Wine enthusiasts 32 count bottle model theremoeletric, $99 us custom shelves around $60 to $80 depending on how many you want. Awsome and a really good size using a plastic tray and oasis as well.
Great review and very useful. I’m going to take a look. 👌🏼👍🏼
I need to pick one of these up. Nice review!
Good review. Thank you. I have been wanting to re-purpose a mini fridge or something myself. Still on my to do list.
You should! Awesome!
The 250 count is selling on Amazon for $299.27
I got mine about a month ago and love it!
Nice!!
Great humidor just got mine. I have noticed that with in 1 day my humidity was at 74% . Rewatched your video and kind of went from there. Hoping to get the Bolveda packs and Bolveda Buttler in there soon as well as the Many Privada cigars..
how's the quality so far for this product?. some people had bad experience with it.
I wiped all plastic surfaces inside with baking soda and distilled water mix to remove the "plastic" smell.
HA! I just bought this humidor last week. Warning: the fan is a little noisy.
What did it set u back?
I need one of those. I live in SF and we don’t have air conditioning in our houses because of the natural AC. But on those string of real hot days during the summer my humidors will get up to 90 degrees while the heat wave lasts. Not good.
I could care less about the key feature.
Hell ide be happy as hell if someone from my circle got into my cigars.
Then I know I would have something in common.I probably give away more cigars then I smoke.
Makes me happy when I find out people like cigars.
You never finished explaining what you did to lower your RH levels. You said you opened the door and then you changed the subject. I'm having the same problem with my RH levels raising high while seasoning and your input would of really helped me out.
I don't think this is the heated model. Usually they model will have an H in the number
Really? Well how come it has Celsius and Fahrenheit settings?
@@FightFairLoseEasy what's that have to do with heating...
@@tonycosta8471 I dont know give me a clue
@@FightFairLoseEasy u stoopid
Not sure why most cigar smokers really need one of these. Here's why. I live in the Midwest (Ohio) and I condition my home year round. Winter, typically between 68-72 degrees, Summer between 72-75 degrees. Those are very acceptable temperatures to keep cigars at so why would I spend $400 for the unit and the annual energy cost to run it. Granted, it only uses 60-watts of energy when running but not sure how many hours it runs daily. Does the fan run constantly? As far as humidity, my house stays between 50% to 75%. So during the winter months humidity is a little low but I use distilled water in a sponge to bring it up to 70% in my clear can humidor. (I like to see all my cigars too!) I think most cigar smokers, would rather spend the $400 on nice cigars. For a collector of cigars, like you and many others, I can see why one might be needed. For the few cigars I keep at home it makes no sense. Thanks for the review though. Very well done.
I gotta get one of these
I totes love your totts ... keep up the good work
Good evening CIGARVIXEN, Thanks for sharing your setup of the NewAir Humidor. Only two questions: why is there a book on the top shelf and is it a good read? I know cigar and novels go together, but I never consider storing my Novel with my cigar. Nothing like a little cigar humor. Thanks again for sharing/Outstanding review!
haha, it's actually a cigar box. Its part of the Saga Cigar collection modeled after books, but actually contains cigars :)
Great review, Delicia! Looks like a great unit, well-built, nice size, nice features. Question: would YOU spend $400/$360 of your own money on this humidor for personal use? Thanks! #CigarVixen
Thanks
Great review, do you rotate the cigars as you replace them? I.e. put new cigars in the bottom & then move them up?
just received my 1st humidor trying learn from the pros
I have the Liebherr XS200 for about 4 years now...I would never go back to a regular humidor box again...
Is that a book on the top shelf? Or a tray to look like a book? I'm intrigued!
Oh, and btw, great review Chica!
the link is to the cool only model also coupon code doesn't work anymore just a heads up. great review!
Well it's been Four months since your review I think so have you done a review on the pros and cons of it? Thank you young lady.
I think you just sold me my new humidor.. how is it holding up 3 years after this review??
Appreciate your videos, thanks for sharing your knowledge. Been subscribed to a few cigar channels but yours are better 🙂 enjoy your chilled approach.
Hope you and your family are well and keep up the good work. Greetings from London UK 🙂👍🏻
Awesome! Thank you! I appreciate it!
@Cigarvixen When seasoning, what do you personally recommend? Water in tray and Boveda packs or just Boveda Packs and how long do you let them sit in?
Great review for sure. I have a question for you. I had mine for a few months, and I can not seem to get the humidity down below 80. I seasoned it with the Boveda pack, I have about 150 cigars inside, and it just stays at 79-80. I was thinking of taking the cigars out for a few days, putting them in a zip lock and seasoning again using the tank that came with it. Do you think that’s a good idea? Any suggestion? Thank you so much and hope to hear your input and anyone else that can suggest anything.
Sweet, can’t wait to loose those keys before the thing is even seasoned.
@Adam Gagliano damn, that’s impressive. I actually put them somewhere safe right when I got it. Even wrote myself a note in my phone so I wouldn’t forget haha.
Hi Delicia. Would you recommend this humidor along with Heartfelt Beads? What would be the best “set it and forget it” combination?
I wonder if this would work for ammo storage?
Ammo needs to be around 68 degrees F with the humidity level around 50 to 60%.
So basically, I am wondering how low the humidity can be set?
Hi there, I see some cigars are in wrappers and others are not. Does this mean they must be kept in the wrappers if they were bought wrapped or is it just what ever you prefer?
It does look real nice 👍🏻
Decent humidor. Does stay on humidity.
4 draw backs are. 1. Is when the door is locked when using the lock it doesn't draw the door tight. You can pull it open to be slightly open with a gap. 2. Is Will not hold 250 sticks in boxes. You have to put alot of loose sticks in and the trays don't have side's so they spill off when pulling out. 3. Light not bright enough.
4. Price point is a bit high.
Other than that Decent humidor .
Thank you for sharing!
Gotta get one!
Nice review!! May need to buy that soon! What kind of knife is that by the way?? I like it!
Thank you, it's a bench made knife - I'll have to check exactly which model...
@@CIGARVIXEN Nice! I have a few Benchmade knives, definitely one of my favorite brands. Thanks! Love your channel, you rock!!
Xmas present incoming!!
the bird right?
@Cigarvixen have you continued to use this unit? Any issues? I have seen multiple poor reviews of the heating feature not working and the customer service not being of any help to fix it.
Hello ! I am from Brasil and use a system similar. And to be honest I'd rather use boveda.
I recently purchased this and im just curious to know if it takes a while for the temperature to reach the level you set it at because in my case the temp keeps going up then back down.
Nice unit , great review, btw can you share your tattoos with us,like the one on your back ?
Yes I can. Thanks. I have a Dia de los Muertos sugar skull of Frida Kahlo over a music sheet - represents different things in my life. I've had it for several years :)
@@CIGARVIXEN Sexy 👌
Love mine!
So it is ok to keep sticks in their boxes ? Wasn’t sure they would humidify in their boxes.
Hi. When your waiting the few days after seasoning with the sponge , are you letting the humidor sit with fan on at 70?
Sup Delicia,
I would just like to say after watching this video I went ahead and ordered the new Air humidor and I am excited and putting this bad boy together on the 12th. I have a quick question though, how do I keep my humidity at 69%? Do you have suggestions
.✯.

I know you made this video 2 years ago but this unit doesn't heat up. It only cools! They removed the heater out of it.
I have this unit and I’m having a hard time getting the RH level down. I live in Maryland and it’s really humid in the summer. I had the temp on 70 and i had a few 72 boveda packs in. The rh keeps going up to the 80’s. Even after i leave the door open for hours and have turned the temp down to 60
Is that happening with a full humidor of cigars? If so, try taking out some of the cigars temporarily. Or even try adding more cigars - basically, play around with the amount of cigars inside the unit at one time to see if that helps off set the humidity level. You may even try taking out bóveda packs temporarily to get RH to situate properly.
Also, if you reach out to Bóveda on Instagram, they may be able to help with some other suggestions. I haven’t run into that problem personally since I live in the extreme opposite and it’s very dry here. Good luck and let me know if you get the issue fixed please :)
I'm new to cigars and looking to get my first humidor. Could you review the Whynter CHC-120S Stainless on Amazon?
Do you have an old humidor you arent using that youd be wiling to sign and send to me? I'm a big fan of yours and cigars.
What do you think of the Needone brand?
Okay, I noticed you have a back piece. What is the significance and the design and do you others?
Did you have an issue with the plastic smell? If so what did you do to get rid of it?
Does the plastic sleeve stay on the cigars when they are placed in a humidor?
its so cute and tiny.....Id need about 20 of those.
hahaha
Does anyone know if it’s available in Australia?
Delicia one more thing,
If you have never tried Southern Draw Jacob's Ladder I do recommend this stick. It's a great blend and has the flavor of spice and pepper. A relaxing cigar and a good smoke for an hour and 38 minutes

I’m guessing you did not read the directions. You show yourself wiping the wood down directly with water in order to season the humidor but on page 11 of the owners manual it specifically says “Make sure that the water is not touching the wood directly or this may damage the wood”. Please read the owners manual before giving out bad information.
Have you tried the Mexican boutique R Paxtian house cigars?
Not yet!
I thought she was gonna Peggy Hill that thing out, "Hoo-yea."
I use the Boveda Butler and it seems to work well.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
i have 1 of the original ones and just go tthis one, but i do notice the newer ones fan is a lot louder, is that normal?
How is the humidity adjusted?
Do i have to plug the drain hole or should i leave it open ?
queen
Great I was thinking to buy One! There is a 300 Ct versión right?
Yes I believe so
Could anyone give me the distance in inches between each shelf?
I don't smoke, but you are smoking hotttttt. Have a good one and if you ever get to CO, HMU. Be safe.
How many cigars can you actually get in there? Is it really 250?
Does this unit heat as well as cool The cigars?
If I set the thermostat to 68° will it maintain that temperature if it is 62° in my house?
It does not have heating capabilities.
Does this unit heat as well?
since it is an electric humidor, isnt the humidity controlled electronically? why would you need the Boveda packs if in fact it is ?
it's only temp controlled and air tight, needs boveda
the electric part is for air flow and like Sans said, temp.
Very nice 👌
Nice❤❤❤❤❤
Would you pay 500 bucks for one 🤔
Whipe what down ? The is almost no ceder !
Can you add more selves? Can you use Boveda packs to only?
The side slots are only pre fitted for 3 shelves. Yes you can use only Boveda both to season and maintain
if the Humidor comes with 70% humidity do I still need seasoning?
Yup because the trays will draw in that humidity. Still needs to be cleaned and seasoned for several days.
A faster way is to use a mister spray bottle to spray the distilled water on the deawer and shelves then wipe off the excess. This is what I mean when I say the Fad cigar smoker has caused an increase in price for rest of true veterans of the cigar world, yes I know folks want to make that mighty dollar but 20 years ago we could get boxes of fine cigars in the $60 to $100 range. Get a wine enthusiasts theremoeletric cooler for $99 bucks and customize your shelves, there is a fella out there who makes them at a very reasonable price.
What website online do you order your Cuban Cigars from?
I don't order Cuban cigars online :/ sorry
