Anyone have experience with this model?  It doesn't look like it can really hold 1000 sticks.

Is this the same one?  Half the price. But it also says 1000 ct http://www.cheaphumidors.com/p_cabinet-humidors_HUM-1200M.html

Mine is 6 foot tall, has twice as many shelves, and is rated for 1,000 cigars (I have 850 in it, and it is pretty full)

It certainly looks the same.  I don't see how 1000 cigars fit into 23" W x 17" D x 35" H

Cfickter

I am sure the assumption is that they are all smaller cigars. It might hold 1000 coronas but not 1000 Churchills. I'm sure Jackal has a variety of sizes and he said he is near max at 850.

Maybe if you remove all the shelves and just stack cigars on top of each other. :-0  :-0  :-0

I didn't make that connection. I don't know much if anything about these larger units. Would that make up the $350 difference?

That sounds about right.

I'm wondering if someone didn't mistakenly hit an extra zero and it should have been 100 ct?!

I wouldn't guess more than 300 in that thing.  Stuffed.  And I prefer smaller sizes like coronas.

Maybe around 500 stacked...didn't see the dimensions but with 3 shelves that sounds about right.

I have that identical one. It held pretty damn close. Had a lot of boxes and 3 trays filled with singles. If I had to guess it was around 700 to 800.

I wish I would've counted them before I transferred over to the large tower. It's quite deceiving and holds more than what you think and it's a great humidor.  I did add some foam strip insulation and always kept it locked for a better seal. The magnets didn't hold the door as right as I liked but locking it sure did. Right now it's holding all my damaged cigars from the Xmas eve disaster :-(

Really?  It looks awfully small! Never would have guessed it.

It just looks so small!  They should add some props to the photos to give a better size perspective or something.  It looks nice, and the stats say it has two outlets, but it just looks so small!!!

Yes its fast, no you cant drive it.

23 x 17 x 35 are the dimensions for the unit shown.  That is very close to half size of many 3,000 clamied capacity towers (same depth and width, a little less than half height).  

Jackal says: "Mine is 6 foot tall, has twice as many shelves, and is rated for 1,000 cigars (I have 850 in it, and it is pretty full)."

Most 6 footers claim capacity of 3,000.  Why do you have such a small one, smaller than normal at any rate?
