i like to consider these cheaper thermostats as "placeholders" until you can save up to afford a more reliable (read: expensive) thermostat, e.g. VE or Herpstat.

i have a Jumpstart thermostat (essentially the same thing as this Inkbird; a cheap thermostat) that's been running with no issues for 3+ years, but i never allowed it the chance to fail on me as i replaced them as soon as i could (i still keep it just in case, but it is not in daily use).

Thanks for the fast answer,
as stated, we sadly dont have many good brands here, i've tried searching for the thermostats that people have suggested like Herpstat etc., and I can't seem to find them anywhere here, not even online.
However we have the Exo Terra Thermostats, the 600w being at around 60€.
Are the Exo Terra therms any good? I havent found many reviews on them yet.
