Well worth considering its price. If you are considering distilling alcohol or any other volatile liquids I would take caution. First of all, the chamber is not fully sealed, there is a hole just by the condenser pipe, meaning vapor can escape. If you were to seal this hole, make sure pressure doesn't build up in the chamber. Second of all, the thermostat displays an incorrect temperature, as soon as I press any button the "real temperature" changes, which only signals unreliability in temperature readings. Still, satisfied overall
