Comparing the Maticoopx and the Manna Pro Nurture Right 360

[CassiesChicks]

I read a lot of reviews before buying my first incubator and I ended up getting the Nurture Right 360. I got good hatch rates, but I found it a real hassle having to continually add water to keep the humidity level right. I even would check it in the middle of the night when I got up to go to the bathroom - so when I decided to expand my hatching hobby, I bought a Maticoopx - and I couldn't be happier! You only have to fill up the water bottle every 5 days or so. No worries if you want to go away for the weekend - the temperature and humidity stay constant. Both incubators give good hatch rates, but the ease of use of the Maticoopx makes it the definite winner. Right now the Maticoopx is even less expensive than the Manna Pro.

Maticoopx for the win. I've got several brands and it's my favorite

How is the humidity levels on the maticoopx? I borrowed a nr360 and hated the lid (hard to get seated quickly) but otherwise liked it, while adding water is annoying it seemed to hold the humidity well right around 45%. Other bubble incubators I’ve tried, especially with bottles, seem to maintain 70% plus (or ten) no matter how little water I add.

It has been steady all the time - between 52-55. I don't remove the lid - I don't candle the eggs - I just leave them in and get rid of the ones that don't hatch at the end. But I have a really hard time with the NR 360 - keeping it in that range. Often it goes up to 60 - and then drops to 45 if I don't add water in time.
