Review by Jonathan Huckabay for DryMistat HumidiTube Cigar Tube Humidifier, Single Tube Rating: I bought this product and have found it perfect. It allows you to leave your humidor alone without babying the humidifier with water and glycol for that perfect/mysterious/etheral/overly-scientific/alchemic level of humidity and actually retaining it.

I gave the product 5 out of 5 because it is such a great product but if I could rate the purchase I would rate it 1 out of 5 because the picture plainly depicts a packaged box full of these tubes which was what I thought I was buying ... not just ONE TUBE.

Fine product though!

Review by Charles P. Anderson for DryMistat HumidiTube Cigar Tube Humidifier, Single Tube Rating: I purchased the Drymistat about 2 years ago and I'm very pleased with it. It's very easy to use and a must have for anyone who keeps more than 25 cigars, especially if your climate is dry. Here are a few tips for those who own a humidor with draws or trays: let the stock humidifier take care of the top drawer or tray and put a drymistat stick in each level. I have a 100ct humidor w/drawers and keep about 80-85 stogies. I keep my premos in the bottom drawer with 2 drymistats and they are aging very well at 64-68% relative humidity. Also, make sure to refill with distilled water. Tap water will leave a brown residue on the beads after a period of time.

Review by D. Lusk for DryMistat HumidiTube Cigar Tube Humidifier, Single Tube Rating: This gets the job done, keeps a pretty consistent humidity. But be prepared to use about 5 in a 100 cigar humidor. Use less than three and they need to be filled every few days to a week. I generally recommend them, but make sure you have enough if your not living the rain forest.

Review by Elemenopea for DryMistat HumidiTube Cigar Tube Humidifier, Single Tube Rating: Great product. I've had four in my 100 cigar humidor for a few years now. I keep one in my portable humidor, and have one in a zip lock bag for those times when I end up with more cigars than my humidor holds. I have never had a dry or moldy cigar using this product.

The rule of thumb for one tube per 25 cigars seems like a good one.

I agree with another reviewer that on various vendor's websites, it looks like the purchase price is for a box of tubes instead of a single tube.

For the guy who said they simply didn't work, that seems strange to me, since my experience is they are very effective and simple to use.

Review by Michael Dillon for DryMistat HumidiTube Cigar Tube Humidifier, Single Tube Rating: I purchased the product for my 50 stogie humidor. I was amazed when I put it in the humidor with cigars and checked it 6 hours later... humidity was regulated at 71%! I have a caliber III hygrometer so I know it is accurate. After 1 week of having the drymistat in the humidor, it constantly reads 70% humidity. I even checked the high and low humidity that is recorded on the caliber and it read 70%. Easy to use product... you just have to add tap water. Low maintenance as well... fill 1-3 months depending upon conditions. I paid 8$ at JR Cigar.. very inexpensive compared to other humidifying products.
