Has or does anyone use this Thermostat?

Or are there any recomendations for a Thermostat?

THANKS!

you plug in what you want to be on it and set the temp you need and it keeps your enclosure at the right temp. we have one and it works great

The very cheap ones like that aren't reliable. Take a look here as to whats recmannded and why.
I'ved use ALIFE thermometers just like that one above only a different manufactor the design is identical. Anyways there was several times I'd have to re-calbirate it so to speak sometimes with the temp set to 90 and the probe still secure over the heattape I'd find my racks at 120 plus degrees. I've looked on fuana and found countless people with animal losses due to thier cheapo thermostat malfuctions.
