"Xikar"
I ordered 2 Xikar hydrometers. Both came defected. I called Xikar. No response. I called Famous Smoke Shop They couldn’t have been nicer. They are sending me 2 new ones. I hope they work. I’m very disappointed with Xikar. Their lighters are great but not these hydrometers I agree with the other reviews. They are junk.

"Defective product"
I just received 2 Xikar hydrometers. Both are defective. Only show centigrade and one only shows LL for temp. I called Xikar. Still waiting for a call back

"So far so acurate"
I have has this in my 50 count humidor for about 4 months now and it seems to be keeping an accurate reading for me. I got this to replace the cheap analog hygrometer that came with my humidor.

"They are Right-Junk"
Before ordering I read the reviews and, having the older model which is great, thought, Oh, maybe just a couple of defective ones and ordered it anyway, trusting Xikar. They were right. It s JUNK. Came out of the box reading 35% so I was immediately skeptical and put it - together with the older one - to the salt test. It got all the way up to 45% the old style reading correctly 75% . DO NOT BUY THESE.

"Junk Not Accurate"
I have tried 2 of these new and approved puro temp to replace my analog that came with my new humidor. I know my analog is accurate but wanted a digital hygrometer because they are supposed to be more accurate. I also use Xikar crystals to maintain 70% but neither one gave me a reading above 62%. Even did a salt test to make sure but both failed to reach the 75%.
Not getting another one!

"Works for Me"
My old hygrometer was showing around 68% and my sticks were drying out even after recalibrating with the salt test. So I bought this Xikar. Works like a charm. Automatically calibrates itself, the numbers are easy to read. I have only had it for 4 days, but finally I have the humidity in my humi where it should be and my sticks are stabilized. I cannot speak to the longevity as yet, but I am highly satisfied with it as of now. I would recommend it.

"Design changed! Junk now."
Do not buy this hygrometer! It can no longer be adjusted like the previous model. After sitting in a Boveda 74% calibration kit for the last 24 hours it has not gone over 60%. Will be returning ASAP.

"Piece of Junk"
Calibrated item for 48 hours with a Boveda 72% pack. Two different brand hygrometers hit the 72% dead on. The Xikar never made it past 67%. I'm returning this item.

"Great!"
These are very accurate and reliable hygrometers. I ve had one for several years in my main humidor and now have 2 additional humidors I am using them in. Xikar is quality.
