Temp controlled fermenter

[Jq1n]

Anyone use one of these? It's a temperature controlled conical fermenter. I'm dreaming of a major equipment upgrade and saw this. Reasonably priced. I am using the most basic of basic equipment. Only 6 beers into brewing. What say you people?
Disclaimer: I have done zero research beyond seeing this and wanting it.

That's the price for only the temp control system. The conical is not included.

Haha didn't notice that.

And it's not complete... There's no chiller with the controller and cooling coil.

You can buy an inkbird temp controller for $40 and use a $20-30 heat strip for heat and $10 discharge hose wrapped around the conical for cooling and accomplish the same thing only it won't look as pretty... I used foil faced insulation wrap to insulate mine after controlling temps with a similiar diy setup. The Ss system is nice in that it's plug in play but its not cheap... Using a Craigslist fridge or freezer is another popular option.
