Worked and seasoned the humidor. Easy to use. Might be reusable but it is cheap so I would not advise it.

This is a beautiful humidor that keeps cigars fresh very well. It is also very inexpensive.

These little packets work great, hold up well for two months. Big bonus is you don't have to keep the distilled water around nor check on the moisture of the sponge all the time. Beats the tubes you put the gel into as well. Humidity stays within about 2% of the humidity that is stated on the package, depending on how many cigar you have in your humidor.

Easiest way to season a humidor; remove from the package and place in humidor for 14 days or until humidity is table. No thinking required. Well worth the price.

Reseasoning my humidor after it sat idle for months. It brought up the humidity quickly and kept it high for the seasoning process. Would buy again.

I purchased this and the Boveda calibration kit. After letting the hygrometer sit in the kits air-tight bag with the humidipak for a day and a half, I found it to be perfectly calibrated. No complaints and will probably buy a second for my smaller humidor. FYI - You can reuse the Boveda calibration kit for up to 6 months after you open it according to the instructions. I didn't know that at first and thought it was worth sharing.

I needed to get this to get rid of my analog hygrometer. Size: Small and compact. I think it is about the size of a Half Dollar. For thickness it is only 1/2" thick. Temp: Takes temp in C or F. The temp seems to be spot on. Hygrometer: I purchased a "Boliva One Step Calibration Kit" to calibrate this. It came precalibrated and this test ensured it was acurrate which it was. Misc: It comes with a cresent moon shaped magnet on the back and a piece of metal the same shape and size to attach to the humidor. It does not block the battery. It hold very well and so far has not slide or moved. All in all, a great product. Seller: I bought from "CheapHumidors"

Pocket size Temperature F/C degrees with a accurate Hydrometer. I also bought the calibrator kit for the hydrometer. The unit was dead on and required no tweaking of the calibration screw. The hydrometer reads exactly the same as my mechanical unit. It does all that was stated and is a good looking unit to boot. I use it in all the rooms in our house to test for wetness. Ammazon's price made this a good deal and I would buy another.

Hygrometer was within 2% of the standard when using the calibration kit. Making adjustments was not so easy. Dial is hard to see the index marks to know how much to correct. Might want to use a magnifying glass. Remember to hit the set button after making the adjustment.

I purchased this (plus the calibration kit) due to suspicions of the accuracy of an analog hygrometer that came in an acoustic guitar case I recently purchased. After calibration (it was only off 2.5%) I've now determined the analog hygrometer is off by 40%! This gadget probably saved me from some guitar damage had I trusted the cheap analog hygrometer and unnecessarily increased the guitar case humidity.

Bought this 2 years ago and still able to refill it over and over again. Humidor stays at a moist 70 for about a month before I have to put more water in it.

This humidifier gel did not humidify cigars in my cigar box. It also dried up and would not re-moisturize.

I have heard of set it and forget it technology for the humidor and I am always skeptical. I have to be. I have hundreds of dollars worth of cigars in my humidors! This works! Just drop it in and forget about it...

I originally intended on purchasing a similar type of these only for a much lower price. I instead received this and I must say that it works GREAT! I have it in a 75-100 count humidor and this keeps it between 69% and 71% humidity. The small size is perfect so as to not take up more room that can be used for more cigars. I plan on getting one of these for each additional humidor that I get! Plus, I received this item very quickly with other items I puchased from the same company!

Three weeks and an inspection revealed mold starting to grow. Pulled it out, put in a HumiPillow to help for the next couple days, and sunk some money on some proper Heartfelt beads.

I dont know what I expected, but this product did not live up it. The fan is much louder than I had thought it would be. The filters underneath fit very loosely, so you can actually watch the unfiltered smoke run out from underneath. The tray cover, which looks cool, is really just a pain. I had mine for about a week and tossed the top. Great idea, just needs a few more tweaks to be a good product.
