18 Egg Incubator, Automatic Turning with Temperature & Humidity Control, Egg Candler, 360 View with Air Vent, Auto Water Bottle Refill, Chicken Incubator for Hatching Eggs

First time using it and our chicks are hatching.

This incubator is made for up to 10 chicken eggs or more if you're using smaller ones like quail. It has an automatic turning tray that rotates the eggs slowly every couple of hours, and it keeps doing that without needing you to touch it. There's a digital display on the top that shows the current temperature and humidity, and the buttons let you adjust both if needed. I think the numbers stayed steady enough once I figured out how much water to add through the external bottles. The bottles sit on the outside and slowly drip water inside, so I didn’t have to lift the lid to refill the unit, which helped keep the temperature from changing too much. There’s a fan built in that moves the air around, and it’s not loud. The plastic cover lets you see inside from all sides, and the whole top lifts off easily when cleaning. It’s bright enough to see the development without extra tools. The unit doesn’t take up too much space, and it worked fine just sitting on a table in a quiet room. I think this type of setup works best when it’s placed somewhere with little temperature fluctuation in the room, and it helps to keep checking it a couple of times a day, just to be sure the water level stays up.

Great beginner incubator or for small quantities. Easy to set up and use. Well made, not flimsy. Lid seats nicely, rolling feature is smooth and functional, humidity function works well, as does candler. This is a great educational tool for children (and adults), and allows for a great no fuss operation for raising your own flock safely.

This incubator was beginner-friendly, it comes fully equipped with features like automatic egg turning every two hours, precise temperature and humidity control, and a built-in egg candler, which I found very helpful. The automatic turner mimics natural hen movements and seems to promote even growth. The digital controls are intuitive and easy to adjust. I was able to keep the temperature steady at 37.5°C and the humidity between 50–65% with minimal effort. I also like the 360° transparent lid—it’s not just fun to watch the process, but also makes it easy to monitor without lifting the top. The built-in fan does a good job distributing heat evenly, and I noticed no hot or cold spots during incubation. I hatched 8 out of 10 chicken eggs successfully, which I consider a good result.

After my child saw the chick hatching process at school, they kept asking to hatch chicks at home. We decided to get this incubator and bought special eggs from a farm. It’s very convenient for home use and can hold up to 10 eggs. The automatic egg turning function saves the hassle of manual turning, rotating every two hours to simulate a hen’s natural incubation process, ensuring even heating and promoting embryo development. The temperature and humidity controls are precise, with an easy to use LCD display to adjust settings and maintain a stable incubation environment. The built-in fan circulates air, distributing heat evenly. The automatic water refill system is a thoughtful feature, reducing the need to frequently open the lid and keeping the humidity stable. The 360° transparent viewing window makes it easy to monitor the entire hatching process, and the egg candler is great for checking embryo development in real time. Comprehensive functions, simple operation ,very practical and easy to use!

So far, so good. The temperature and humidity seem to stay consistent. We currently have quail eggs in there right now.The only things I would change about it, is 1) add a brighter candling light (the one on there is not bright enough for the quail eggs. We havent tried it for chicken eggs yet) and 2) a handle on top to lift the lid. It can be very awkward trying to take the eggs out to candle them, because you either need two people, massive hands, or to set the eggs down. It would save quite a bit of time with a handle on top instead.Other than that, this is a great machine for small egg batches. Easy to clean.Also, the instructions say it comes with a foam pad, but ours did not come with one.

This incubator has a small capacity, which is just right for people like me who are trying to incubate eggs for the first time. The automatic egg turning and temperature control functions are very convenient to use, and you don't have to keep an eye on them all the time. The transparent design on the top allows me to observe the status of the eggs at any time, and it is also equipped with an egg lighting lamp, which is very practical. The way to add water is also simple, with a small water bottle connected externally, so you don't have to open the lid frequently. The overall operation is easy, and it is more suitable for home use or as a science experience for children. After the successful hatching this time, I plan to try different types of eggs.

We were total beginners going in, but setup was straightforward, the digital controls were easy to tweak, and the instructions made sense. We ended up hatching six chicks, and honestly, the whole family was glued to the thing for three weeks. My four-year-old checked the eggs like it was her job, and when they hatch, we were dancing, so happy.The auto-turning feature worked great, and I liked the fact that the top was fully transparent—it made it easy to watch without opening it. Just a heads-up: once you remove the turner, the eggs can roll a bit, so position them away from the heating element if possible.Humidity was the only hiccup at first, but support was responsive, and after a reset and cleanup, it’s been running smoothly. Also, the built-in candling light isn’t super bright, so plan to use it in a dark room if you want to see movement clearly.Great value, solid design, fun for kids, and perfect for curious families. We’re already mid-run on batch #2 with 100% fertilization, and excitement is high again.
