Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had a fairly simple need for my kombucha and kefir cultures, but i wanted better control of the temperature than what those kombucha bands allowed for. This was just what I was looking for and it was spacious enough to let me put 3 large kombucha jars in a row. The temperature sensor came with a silicon suction nub which I placed between two jars about a 3rd of the way up from the bottom. I tested a few times with a thermometer the contents of the 3 jars and the variation was around 1 degree F (typically 0.7). Though some reviewers had issues with the display mine functioned clearly and reliably and I've had it running non stop for 12 weeks now. The cords running from the control unit to the wall outlet measures 66" while the cord running from the mat to the control unit runs a even 6', making for a decent length of cord on both sides of the control unit. Finally the company is fairly proactive and responsive, having responded quickly via email with a couple of questions I had. All this, for the price, makes this a easy recommendation.
