For the price you could make something much better and bigger.
Those are so small that a 6 quart egg box will not fit in them, you need to incubate one clutch in several deli cup.
This means you might fit a clutch or two at the very most and than you will have outgrow it.
I would recommend building your own or investing a little more to get something you can grow into and not something that will be obsolete in one season

Ive used to for 2 years and havent lost any eggs. You do have to split up clutches, but I can fit 30 eggs in there so it definitely holds more than 1-2 clutches.
The things to watch out for:
1. It reads the temp as 3-4F higher than it actually is.
2. The fan only comes on when the heat is on so adding another fan keeps you from having a temperature gradient.
Overall I love mine! Especially because it cools as well and it gets really hot here in FL.
