wineador question

Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 525
So I have an opportunity to get two brand new 18 bottle capacity wine fridges
model #'s ....WC-1857DH
for $80 each from a friend that runs the local home depot's contractors desk here, that I go to a lot. he said I could have first dibs on em, they ordered for a customer that pulled out of the order after they came in and don't want to stock them
and was wondering what you all thought about for me to make a wineador for my wife and I to each have one (would need separate ones cause she smokes flavored/infused & don't want to mix)
also seen online where I can get custom Spanish cedar shelves/drawers made for it - fairly cheap
(might have to wait a few months for the $ to get the cedar though)
wondering if I should pull the trigger on these ??
thanks up front for any advice/info about this

right part of the country
id jump on it if i also had the cash.
I also enjoy a flavored once in a while, so this way I can steel one from her wineador when ever I want
Mine were also split chambered as that appears to be. Just know that even though there is some air transfer between the chambers you will need two separate humidification devices. I had cigar oasis in the bottom and beads in the top. A LOT OF BEADS.
Just my experience here, he wineadors did exactly what I needed them to do which was keep the temp down but they were definitely more work to maintain than the plain old humidors or coolers ever were.
I BETTER have some for here in the box as well (she told me that if I ever get cigars delivered and there's none in the box for her she was going to send them "ALL" out as bombs lol)
and when I told her i was going to get a wineador going for myself, she said then she gets one too, especially when she found out that the HD here has two of em offered to me
Now just need to start saving for the custom spanish cedar drawers to add in em
