Adding your location would be helpful - then people close to you can advise on what is available in your area.

Otherwise - I've used, with varying success, several of the HHD brand ones (Chinese manufacturer). They are budget and lower quality, but if you treat them right they do work well enough

This is the model I found most reliable - and easiest to use and clean. Carries quite a few eggs potentially, including larger ones (if you have ducks this would work). I currently use this as my dedicated hatcher - but it does come with a rack that auto turns the eggs.

Edited To Add: Beware Of Imitations! This brand I've found to be reliable but there are "copies" out there that aren't.

Nurture Right 360 is very popular. How much are you able to spend?

Also, what kind of eggs are you going to be incubating and how many at a time?

In NZ Dollars I paid $110 for mine.
I think that's about $70 ish US Dollars??

Here's one listed on EBay

Okay. What is it called again? Would it be worth it to only use a few times for a small amount of eggs like that?

Absolutely. I thought it was a useful purchase for the value paid.
I've used mine to incubate a small number of eggs (9 was my smallest set) from start to finish.
More recently I incubate in my more expensive incubator and transfer into this one for hatching - anywhere up to 30 at a time
Quite versatile - and easy to clean and store away if not needed for a bit.
