Whether you are a true cigar aficionado or a casual enthusiast, the Whynter CHC-120S / CHC-120Sa Stainless Steel 1.2 cu. ft. Cigar Humidor is an ideal cigar storage system that can help preserve the flavor of your cigars and protect them from pests or other harmful conditions.
The Whynter CHC-120S / CHC-120Sa is designed to help store and age cigars within the optimal humidity range 62% to 75% at room temperature. This cigar humidor contains a humidification tray (for use with preferred solution/moisture beads) and equipped with an elegant analog hygrometer which helps monitor the desired level of humidity.
Having a temperature controlled environment is also critical for discouraging the proliferation of any pests that may be present in the tobacco leaves. The thermoelectric cooling system used here minimizes the drying effect when cooling, relative to the compressor based cooling systems in many refrigeration units.
Furnished with two Spanish Cedar flat shelves and a spacious drawer, the Whynter CHC-120S / CHC-120Sa helps maintain humidity, emits a light complementary aroma, and helps repel damaging insects.
In addition to its main purpose of storing, preserving, and aging cigars, the Whynter Cigar Humidor is also an attractive and elegant showcase for your prized collection.

A cigar humidor cooler is a temperature and humidity-controlled cabinet designed to store cigars at optimal conditions. It preserves flavor, aroma, and freshness for long-term storage.
The ideal temperature range for storing cigars is 55–70°F (18–21°C). Maintaining a consistent temperature helps prevent wrapper cracking and ensures proper aging.
Relative humidity should be kept between 65–70%. Too much humidity can cause mold, while too little can dry out cigars and affect flavor.
Whynter humidor coolers feature adjustable digital controls. Use the control panel to set your desired temperature. Monitor the built-in manual or digital hygrometers to maintain the proper humidity level, adjusting the humidification system as needed.
Yes. Before storing cigars, humidify the interior using distilled water or a humidor solution to stabilize the environment. Follow your model’s instructions for proper seasoning.
While the cooler is designed for cigars, it can also store other items sensitive to temperature and humidity—but not at the same time as cigars. Avoid storing items that may release strong odors, as these can affect cigar flavor.
Because this cooler is designed for hobby use, the humidification system should be monitored closely. Check the water or humidification solution at least every 1–2 weeks, especially if the surrounding environment is particularly dry or humid, and refill as needed to maintain proper humidity.
Yes. Shelves can often be repositioned or removed to accommodate different cigar box sizes.
It should have at least 4 to 6″ of clearance around the sides and back for proper airflow. See the installation manual for exact guidelines.
Follow these steps:
• Remove all cigars before cleaning
• Wipe interior surfaces with a soft cloth and distilled water or a mild humidor-safe solution
• Avoid harsh chemicals that could affect cigar flavor
• Ensure the unit is level and has proper ventilation
• Verify the digital settings are correct
• Check the humidification reservoir and refill if necessary
• Consult the troubleshooting guide in the manual if issues persist
Yes. When maintained at the proper temperature and humidity, cigars can be stored for months or even years, preserving quality and flavor.
