Initially received this humidor with a defective split wood lid seal. The supplier to Amazon forwarded a replacement unit for me after I waited 7 weeks for it, due to being back ordered. The replacement came from China looking as an exact duplicate on the outside BUT it was actually of inferior construction, compared to the original purchase. The new Bally, from this distributor, did not have the triple hinge system (no piano hinge) and the overall box wood thickness is thinner.The original designed Bally is a good lower end humidor, the new Bally is not. Price wise, one can do better with some web checking under 'cigar humidors', many companies are out there, with better customer support.
