I was almost put off by the negative reviews, but I got this thermostat for my leopard gecko egg incubator. I needed something that would keep the temp at 88* F constantly. Although this T-stat was a little difficult to wire in initially, and required some parts it didn't come with (a plug, outlet, jumper wire), which is a small price to pay for such an inexpensive thermostat, it did it's job very, VERY well. I already have hatched healthy leopard geckos from two clutches, and I have another clutch that should hatch in about 3 days. The eggs are very healthy and this will be my first 100% hatch rate EVER. I also hatched cricket eggs in the incubator controlled by this T-stat.
The T-stat has kept the temperature within 1.5* F in both directions constantly for several months now. I have been EXTREMELY happy with this product, so uch so that I ended up getting another one specifically for my cricket eggs. Same great results.
Another great thing with this T-stat is that it's small size and convenient shape makes it very easy to build into whatever you are using it for, in my case an incubator.
The only reason I don't recommend this for everyone who needs a T-stat is that wiring is a bit difficult. It requires at least some prior knowledge of electronics, and it's definately not "plug 'n' play". I definately wouldn't recommend anyone who doesn't have experience with electronics try to use this. You are dealing with 120v AC. Show some respect! But after it's wired in it works well.
There are also two diagrams on how to wire it in, which are both feasible but it is a bit confusing. I recommend that you follow the colored diagram on the FAQs sheet included with the product, because with that diagram all the "hot" wiring is inside the unit. That will reduce the risk of shock, fire, etc. The yellow, ground wire on that diagram is unnecessary, though it is safer.
Overall, it's a great thermostat for a great price. I will definately be using it again!

Nice upgrade for an egg incubator
It takes a little time, at least for me anyway, to get the hang of the setting controls. The manual is key especially if you only use it every 2 - 3 years. Otherwise it is a nice upgrade for an egg incubator. I enclosed mine in a vented case to protect the wiring and connections.

Great T-stat, but a little difficult to wire in.
