Simple and robust
I purchased two of these controllers for my daughter's nursery. One controls a 1500 watt ceramic heater for the air, and the other a 1000 watt water heater for a radiant heating system in the crib. Been going for a couple weeks now, and they are working great. I didn't need the cooling part of the thermostat for this project, but it might be useful in the future. The controls are simple, though I did need to reference the instructions the first time to get into the extra settings menu to switch to freedom units (being a silly American and all). Just hold the set button for 3 seconds when it's running normally. Very happy so far.

A good, reliable unit so far for regulating herp enclosures
I’ve been using this unit to regulate the temperature of my herp enclosures for a few months now, and it works great! The directions are fairly straightforward, but seem a little complex at first, especially if you have never programmed one of these before. The probe is nice and small, so I can easily sneak it in an enclosure and still be able to close the lid securely. The unit seems responsive, reliable, and accurately measures the temperature. I’ve already invested in another one for a separate setup

Works well
Easy to set up and works well.

Handles a bigger load.
I like the 15A capacity over the 10A I have from a different manufacturer.Has been working perfectly for the 10 weeks or so since I plugged it in.Update: 10 days after my positive review the cooling function quit working. Of course it's 30 days after the return window closed so I'm screwed. Maybe I can find an American made product that will at least warrant their products.

Outlet for the heating stopped working.
The unit worked fine for the first couple of months, one day out of nowhere I wake up to the alarm going off because the heater wasn't getting power. I checked it out and by just moving it the heater came on. But when I put it back it cut off again. It turns out the connector was not making proper connection to both prongs and it had to be tilted to the side a bit in order for it to make contact and give the heater power. I figured it wasn't a big deal and could probably be fixed when I have a chance maybe with some solder on the prongs of the heater plug. Meanwhile by pulling it back and wrapping it around the outlet box it seamed to do the trick as long as it wasn't moved. That was only good for so long. After a couple more months it really got stubborn and became a pain to get it to make the connection and stay until eventually not wanting to make the connection at all. It's a shame because it keeps really accurate temperature and works like its supposed to, and there's really no other available put there like this one. Would be nice if the manufacture could fix it for me, it's only about 7 months since I bought it technically it should still be under warranty. But I'm not sure if it even came with warranty or not. Would've loved to give this a 5 star rating but with it braking all by itself so quickly I can't give it anything above that one star.since it's basically useless.

Definitely cannot hold up to 15A as stated
The cooling circuit fried out using a 6.0 AMP draw portable AC unit in the first week. Heating output still works.

Does the job for a fermentation chamber
Works well in my refrigerator converted to a fermentation chamber. Temp reads about 2 degrees higher than my digatil thermometer inside the unit so I used the temp adjust by -2 to get it close enough. I wish it had an off switch as the only way to stop heating/cooling is to unplug everything.

Easy setup
I use this in my well house to keep the pipes from freezing, we only had a couple really cold days in North Texas so far, and it has seemed to work for my needs. It was easy to setup and connect to a heat lamp. Gives me piece of mind knowing my pipes won’t freeze.
