Places to find old mini fridges?
So I'm on the hunt for an old mini fridge to turn into an incubator. I don't need a big one because I only plan on 1-2 clutches a year. I've got an ad up on craigslist looking for old broken ones, but was wondering if you all had any suggestions for places I could go look around to find one.

Junkyards, used appliance/ repair stores. I used a old wine cooler because of the glass door and I loved it.

Wow! That is such a great idea to get a mini-fridge or wine cooler and turn it into an incubator! It sounds better than my first idea of making one out of a styrofoam cooler from the store. They at least already have the rubber stripping to help hold in humidity and temperatures right were you want them. Provided you're not opening and closing them a lot. The wine cooler would be nicer just for the glass window as long as it was double paned and kept in the heat well.
Is there any commercial incubators that anyone would recommend? Or any great tutorials for making your own incubator as a small breeder?
So far I've only been able to find information on the Exo Terra incubator which has horrendous reviews and the Zoo Med Reptibator which has okay reviews but a lot of people complain it's really small especially for anything larger than bearded dragon eggs and it's really flimsy making it really easy to damage. Any advice would be welcomed!

I gave up on my search this year, with 3 clutches on the way and no Incubator, I built this.

Also, i have seen some nice diy with epvc and plexi front door.
