Anybody else have the moisture problem, by keeping the bag in a cooler climate (garage in Austin, Texas)?

I've had mine hanging in my basement for about a year and haven't had any problems. I use it regularly but haven't moved it since I first hung it up. I live in Michigan and my basement stays 50-65 F.

I have not had any moisture problem. I've had the bag for a few years. It currently resides in my basement which sometime can get to 55 F or less. I also have not changed the water or opened it since purchase, just hang, move, and re hang... don't know if this would affect it.Update: I probably should include I am in the Mid East USA - I get a wide variety of weather, but rarely any extremes.

Yes, in my experience. I fixed this by placing a small desk fan behind it to disperse the moisture.

Inside each little cover there is a plastic ridge that fits tightly against the interior of the compartment. This ridge seems to answer for a seal to keep out moisture. (as I live in a "high desert" area, humidity is not an issue so I'm giving you my best guess).

Hi Judith; I bought two of these safes and am pleased with them. I haven't had a problem with moisture. The instructions do say to leave the door open for a while every few weeks. Hope this helps.

I just added some water to that bag and then made sure it was sealed well. They stayed moist for months.

I use my Danby in a heated garage with the thermostat set at 50. With the garage doors opening often for two cars to let in or out. I used to have a major problem with moisture on the windows, floor and doors. I do not have anymore problems with moisture now with the Danby.

I sold that camper a couple years ago, but I don't remember it "sweating", or if it did it was very little. Remember you need to ventilate the space that the heater is in, that should help with the moisture problem.

First of all, your landlord should take care of the humidity problem. Please run a dehumidifier for the health of you and your family. I find that even in my pantry that is on a concrete floor and seems humid to me, that the crackers stay pretty fresh. Try a set and see for yourself.

I use mine in my garage in Central Florida where the humidity is very high most of the year and not had any problems with it. Mine appears to be completely sealed against weather but I suspect it may leak around the contacts where it is plugged in, so never use it outside and exposed to the rain. I use stainless steel bolts, washers and nut on my batteries because they do rust/corrode.

No sweating here, but we live in a very dry climate. Is it humid where you are? That could be the problem.

Ours is covered by the porch so I can't speak for moisture sake. It lasted through the cold winter temps, below zero and all. The most ours has ever been subjected to is a light drizzle. Ours has been working consistently with no problems for over 2 years now.

I did not have that problem. Do you live in a cold climate? If so, try putting it in your garage overnight on a really cold day. That might help.

I had the same problem. I am sure this is what happen to our Bag. The heat set it tight, I used WD 40 also I took a crescent wrench. It was tough. Later I should of used a hair dryer with WD 40 or I could of used an auto spray for rusted nuts, a penetrating oil.

Thank you for asking. I have been keeping it in the pantry and it seems to be just fine. I also put some in a jar with a tight lid so I could see if there would be any difference. I live in a very dry area so there is no problem with moisture. I'm not sure what to do if there is high humidity.
