    Not particularlly, they don't hold much and not worth the price. Your best bet is to build your own. There are some good threads in the DIY section

    It could be but the best incubator is one that you can grow into. Personally I would just get a decent sized cooler stick some flexwatt in it maybe a fan plug the flexwatt into a thermostat and call it a day.

    They'll hold maybe 2 clutches, in separate containers. They hold heat fine.

    I was very unimpressed, because they don't hold humidity worth a darn, which means the eggs MUST be in separate containers.

    A Hovabator, which is the same size, can hold 5 clutches of ball eggs in a substrateless setup, without separate containers, so that's what I use. Hovabator + thermostat is around the same price as the Reptibator.

    Im currently using one for some gecko eggs. No complaints so far, however it is pretty small.

    I used one for my first season last year. Worked great. Personally would recommend. But keep a thermometer in the tub with the eggs so you get accurate temps. The thermometer on the device doesn't read internal well because its right next to the heat source.
