Might as well use that money to build your own. I have heard the temps fluctuate from top to bottom.

I bought one, and have yet to use it.......seems to small to me.
kingofspades had a video or something about it a while back. Always been interestned in his success with it.

I hatched out 5 eggs with it no problem. I ended up trading it though for a female pastel because I was going to have more clutches this season and couldn't fit them all.
Ended up building one out of a wine fridge.

I have used it. This is my second year in fact, I fit 3 clutches up to six eggs in it, anything larger you would have to split up. There is a slight variation in temps, but it really doesn't matter at all. If you wanted you could just cycle the tubs from top to bottom every few weeks. For the price you can't beat it, digital read out, light, glass door,plus a D/C adapter for your car(think power outtage or other emergency). I got mine for $120 shipped second day. You could build your own, but you could barely get a thermostat for that price. It good if you only plan on a few clutches. I plan to buy a couple more as some females are getting up to size this year.
