Two large humidors, two different starting points
The Zibra 150 Count Humidor and the Laval Cigar Humidor sit in the same price neighborhood, but they answer different questions. The Zibra is built around a stated 150-cigar capacity and a full accessory layout. The Laval is a smaller-format humidor with a black piano and carbon fiber finish, and its supplied information does not state a capacity figure. That single difference—one capacity is confirmed, the other is not—should shape how you compare them.
This guide sticks to what the product records actually say, so you can see where the two humidors are genuinely comparable and where one leaves a decision open.
Capacity and dimensions: what is confirmed
- Zibra 150 Count Humidor: The supplied specification states a 150 count capacity, giving you a concrete number to plan around. No exterior dimensions are supplied, so counter or shelf footprint cannot be compared from the record.
- Laval Cigar Humidor: Exterior dimensions are listed as 14 3/4 x 10 x 7 1/4 (inches, as supplied). No cigar count is stated, so you cannot translate the Laval's size into a capacity figure from the supplied information alone.
Zibra 150: capacity and construction evidence
- Zibra 150 Count Humidor: The Zibra 150 Count Humidor holds up to 150 cigars. This is the only confirmed capacity figure between the two, making the Zibra the easier choice if you are planning around a specific collection size.
Zibra 150 Count Humidor - Zibra 150 Count Humidor: It combines a double premium sealing lid with 3/4 inch thick side walls in a matte finish. These are the construction details the record confirms; they describe how the humidor is built, not a performance rating.
Laval: dimensions and finish evidence
- Laval Cigar Humidor: The Laval Cigar Humidor measures 14 3/4 x 10 x 7 1/4. These are the only size figures supplied for either humidor, so they are the starting point for checking whether the Laval fits your space.
Laval Cigar Humidor - Laval Cigar Humidor: It has a black piano and carbon fiber finish. The finish is a visual and material choice; the record does not attach any durability or performance claim to it.
What comes in the box for setup
Setup is where the two humidors diverge most clearly. One arrives with humidity equipment included; the other explicitly does not include cigars or humidity packs.
- Zibra 150 Count Humidor: Includes a magnetic digital hygrometer, a metal crystal humidifier, a tray, dividers, a lock and key, and magnetically attached cigar scissors. The hygrometer has a dedicated magnetic mounting inside the humidor, and the scissors store alongside the collection.
- Laval Cigar Humidor: Includes a top-mounted digital hygrometer, a metal-faced crystal humidifier, two cedar dividers, a cedar tray, and a decorative lock and key. The record states it does not come pre-filled with cigars or humidity packs.
Zibra 150: included humidity and organization gear
- Zibra 150 Count Humidor: A magnetic digital hygrometer monitors humidity, and a metal crystal humidifier completes the included humidity equipment. Both humidity tools are part of the purchase, so the Zibra's setup does not require sourcing a separate hygrometer or humidifier based on the supplied record.
- Zibra 150 Count Humidor: A tray and dividers separate cigars into organized sections, and a lock and key provide a locking closure. These are the interior organization and closure features the record confirms for the Zibra.
Laval: included humidity and organization gear
- Laval Cigar Humidor: The Laval has a top-mounted digital hygrometer and a metal-faced crystal humidifier. Humidity monitoring and humidification hardware are included, but the record also states the humidor does not come pre-filled with humidity packs.
- Laval Cigar Humidor: It includes two cedar dividers, a cedar tray, and a decorative lock and key. Cedar components are named in the record; the lock is described as decorative, which is the only characterization supplied.
Where the comparison runs out of evidence
Several details that would normally decide a humidor purchase are simply not in the supplied records. For the Laval, there is no stated cigar count, so you cannot directly compare it to the Zibra's 150 figure. For the Zibra, there are no exterior dimensions, so you cannot check its footprint against the Laval's 14 3/4 x 10 x 7 1/4 measurement. Neither record supplies seasoning instructions, humidity targets, or a stated material for the Zibra's interior beyond the tray and dividers.
That does not mean those details do not exist—only that they are not confirmed here. Treat any specific setup procedure, humidity level, or capacity claim you see elsewhere as something to verify against the manufacturer's documentation before you rely on it.
How to choose between them
- Start with a confirmed capacity if you are planning a collection: The Zibra 150 is the only one of the two with a stated count. If you need to know roughly how many cigars the humidor will hold, that figure is the clearest planning number available.
- Check the Laval's dimensions against your space: The Laval's 14 3/4 x 10 x 7 1/4 measurement is the only size figure supplied. Measure your shelf or cabinet before committing, since the Zibra's footprint is not stated for comparison.
- Decide whether included humidity gear matters to you: Both include a digital hygrometer and a crystal humidifier, but the Laval's record explicitly notes it does not arrive with humidity packs. Factor in what you will need to add before first use.
- Weigh organization features: The Zibra includes a tray, dividers, and magnetically stored cigar scissors. The Laval includes two cedar dividers and a cedar tray. Choose based on which layout suits how you store and access your cigars.
