Well you saw my setup...I'd say it works pretty good, I dont have a thermostat for individual room climate control I just have two digital thermometers hanging on the walls and just monitor if I need to turn my oil filled radiator up or down, I plan to eventually get a programable outlet thermostat which seems like it would work pretty well for a single room...I always recommend building your own racks just because it's cheaper, but if I had a couple thousand to blow on a nice freedombreeder or ARS rack I would in an instant.
