Highlighted Reviews

— Johnny

"The only negative point is you must lift the top every other day to add water, but you never need to worry about a humidity pump going bad."

— birdman

"I have a brinsea incubator and it is great. I bought the Ovation 28 Eco and was very disappointed in the fact it has no humidity display at all."

Bottom Line

For reliable egg incubation, consider this product but be aware of its shortcomings. For better games the money to more functionally designed appliances.
