Excellent alternative to leaving your starter in your oven or microwave with the light on!
This is an excellent product, warms my starter to the exact temperature and time. The dome helps ensure that the air space around my jar remains consistent and of course it also warms the starter from the bottom via the heating pad. Just fyi, don't use it on your starter at too high of a temperature, start with 77 degrees and work up a degree or two at a time until you find the temperature that's right for you. I have mine set at 79 degrees and my starter seems to love that temperature. Easily triples in 3-4 hours. The unit works flawlessly so far and is easy to use. I highly recommend it. It came well packaged. For Weck jar fans, it holds them perfectly.

Great option for rising dough and starter in colder months
This is the second one I bought, I returned the first one from another brand because it wasn't very precise. This one works great and the dome is an extra layer of protection to keep your dough temp exactly where you want it.This makes baking sourdough or other types of bread so much easier, it takes the extra time of a cold kitchen out of the equation. No more keeping your stuff in the oven with the light on only to forge tor have someone else turn on the oven and ruin everything.

Highly recommended for bread starters
Got this for my wife, she loves it. Keeps her starter at the correct temp, works great with the glass dome and without. The size is perfect for smaller kitchens or even a larger kitchen doesn’t take up much room 10/10

Reliable and speeds up feeding my starter
This has been a game changer for waking up my starter in cold weather. Easy to use and clean. Works much better than a more expensive model. Very happy with it.

Mama’s Little (sourdough) Helper!
I love this, so much, in my upper midwest kitchen! First and foremost, it doesn’t take up a ton of room on my countertop, which was important to me! The temperature control on the plate is right on with the temp strips I put on my jars, The plate absolutely takes a beating, even if the top does not, so much - I knocked it to the back of my counter, by accident, and the plate took the brunt of the knock and still performs like a champ. The top, sadly, shattered everywhere, but that was definitely user error. I bought a replacement, and the sourdough dream lives on! It accommodates a large Weck jar, which is difficult to find, so it’s a gem that way. It’s a decent value for the cost, and I have recommended it to family and friends over the expensive little countertop oven/chambers that they were considering. Maybe I should go into sales, because three of them have also ordered it and enjoy it!
