Mine was around $90 from Amazon and the temp swings so bad I started keeping a meat thermometer in there just to check. The cheap ones seem fine until you actually need steady heat, then you're babysitting the dial all day. I'd say skip the $300 unit and just get a decent $150 one with a real thermostat, the jump from junk to okay is worth way more than the jump from okay to fancy.

Man, this is the same thing as people who "read" books but can't remember a single chapter. Half paying attention to stuff is basically the default now and nobody wants to admit it.

Binging stuff alone at 2am hits different than watching with a crowd, so now I do a solo test run before trusting anyone's top 10. Cowboy Bebop was that one for me, weirdly enough.
