Comments or concerns on the Repti Pro 5000 incubator

I am looking at buying a new incubator and came across the Repti Pro. Has anyone used this bator and how does it perform?
Would I be better off buying something else? Any and all comments/ suggestions appreciated!!

I just purchased mine and had my first hatch yesterday. I am very pleased with it. Easy to use and very steady temps. I have no complaints at all but if I could change anything abut it I would add aseconf shelf for more capacity

LOVE IT!!!

Edited to add, I have had every type incubator known to man form a brinsea to a LG to a GQF cabinet and everything in between. I did not like any of them as much as this little unit from Repto Pro.

Cool. Thanks.

It is cheaper than some I looked at so didn't know how it would work.

I had great results with mine but I set the temp at 101 because the temp varries at different levels in the unit. That made it a parfect 99.5 at the mid point and it worked like a charm! I suggest checkingyour temps with a digital thermometer and adjusting according to that reading. I also used the dry hatch method.

Thanks for the info. I am going to give one a try.
