Has anyone used this incubator?

[AustraHatch]

Hey guys, i'm looking to get a mid-range incubator thats good quality but not too pricy. After much searching i found this Australian made incubator which seems to be high quality and has good reviews. https://www.nestyboxes.com.au/products/nesty-24-egg-incubator?variant=49960288354619
It seems to have some really cool features such as the ability to switch from Faren height to celcius, has an egg candler (which i know is common) and reads the temperature three times every second. Just looking to see if anyone has used it before i purchase. I understand its not an extremely common incubator but i thought it looked the goods and was worth a shot.

I've not heard of it, but five 5-star reviews make it look pretty good.

The only thing I personally don't like is that it's not automatic humidity, meaning the user has to fill some receptacle once or twice a day, most likely.

I tried to find more out about it and there isn't anything else, so that part is a bit scary.

Looks like a bootleg maticoopx, which you can get for half the price.

I have never used that model.

Where are you located? If you modify your profile to show that then the information will always be available. That could come in handy for a lot of things.

You say it is made in Australia. I see that one requires 220 Volt input. Is that compatible with your power supply? That seems to be the price in Australian dollars. That would be closer to $160 US.

I could not find an online owner's manual or operating manual. Can you give a link so I could read it? I see it uses a water bottle but I don't see how you manage different humidities. How do you set it up for lockdown and hatch? How do you manage ventilation? Does it have a fan to keep the air stirred up?

I'm kind of cynical. I see 5 reviews, each one 100% perfect. They may all be legitimate but to me they are too good.

It has a fair amount of electronics on it which could raise the price. I can't tell from the photos how well it is made. From what I can see it seems to be a reasonable incubator for the price but I really don't know how easy it is to operate or how well it will last.
