Highlighted Reviews
"The aspen bedding is the best thing in the kit."
"The only thing I would keep out of this pack is the aspen and the undertank heater (though I recommend a ceramic overtank ceramic heater over an undertank for a corn snake, but it will work and XYZ is a good brand), and I could pick those up separately for cheaper."
Bottom Line
Not a reliable starter kit due to its durability issues. Buying items individually is advisable.
