I just didn't see the reason to even waste the money since you can just go to WalMart or Target and buy a chest cooler for $15-$20 and have a much safer, air tight container that is less likely to fail. The use of either requires you to buy a good thermostat, so why not go with something that will last than something that is more likely to kill your eggs?
Cooler might be $20, flexwatt is $5-$6, thermostat is $75-100
Hovabator is $60, and thermostat is $75-100.
Plus the digital thermometers/hygrometers, egg boxes, vermiculite/perlite, fluorescent light diffuser grating(if you do no-sub), and either plastic wrap or Press N Seal if the container you're using isn't air tight.
Just comes out more economical when you don't buy the Hovabator.
