So I meant to post this up earlier but a few weeks ago it finally happened: I got my Aristocrat Humi in. It took about 8 weeks (which was the promised amount of time) but it felt like 8 months, as I have no patience. I went with the Mini Tall with the Set and Forget in the Cherry Finish. The construction is impeccable and the finish work is great. Some problems that other people have had (with other companies, I didn't read anything negative about Aristocrat) with wires or finish work being poorly done hasn't been an issue for me at all. I can't recommend the folks over at Aristocrat enough. Their pricing is excellent and the product you receive is worth every penny of the expense. I wanted furniture quality and that's exactly what I received. I chose to go with Aristocrat over several other companies and the decision was the right one to make, for me at least. The set and forget option is definitely worth the money and if anyone else where to get a unit I would recommend that you purchase the option or get a unit that comes has it as standard equipment. Here are some photos:
So it occurred to me halfway thru to take a photo. As you can see I was opening it rather hastily.
The hardest part: waiting the five days to have it totally seasoned.
Here's it stocked and up and running:
My first try snapping a quick photo of the front:
