Microclimate nothing else ,they have controls that need a small screwwdriver to change them up and down whereas the habistats are a knob easily knocked and altered ! also the recent problems reported with failures i have noticed have all been habistats...

i bloody well am not buying 2nd hand. i have returned 4 micro climate. they are in my opinion, flimsy. the habistats are much more sturdy, and not all have knobs. although i have ones with knobs and i find them easier to use as i can see the measurements and dont need a tiny wee screwdriver. the knobby ones are put where they cant be reached or knocked. ie top shelf.
i have never had a habistat give up the ghost. i have had micro climate not work before it was ever put on. 4 of them. my daughter has returned these too. she prefers habistat.
second hand indeed!!!!

Very Happy

chill out ffs what is wrong with you? any time you reply you appear to come over as arguementative and try to force your opinions on us .blimey !! they are in your opinion flimsy but in mine the best to use ..
difering opinions are why we are here to make our own minds up, not be force fed by YOU
