Before ya go any further your gonna find that the majority of people on here are gonna tellbyea aninal plastics for racks and herpstat for thermostat. Now with that said. Any plastic rack your gonna find out there is going to be fine. Proportional or non proportional thermostats will both work. Personally i use freedom breeders and helix and have for years. Thats my preference. Bow for a single plastic rack anything from rhino raxx, vision,aninal plastics etc will work just fine
