Received latest email from home-brew-online with this bit of equipment. What are people's thoughts? Saves wiring up a brew fridge??

I entered the comp for one, but it only does half the job of a brew fridge - good for winter but not much good for summer. I was looking at this earlier on - http://www.berrybrew.co.uk/fermentation-fridge-build-brew-fridge/ - and for the money I'd rather go for the brew fridge. Generally I've found a waterbath to be good at keeping temps steady within a degree or so, and the outlay for that is only £20. This is more convenient, and much less messy, but you're paying for the privilege!

Ah I see I jumped the gun a bit and thought it did both. Have read the first part of the instructions and it states that it heats only. This time of year could have an stc wired up to my heat pad as unlikely going to need to cool the FV unless I go lager route.
