Hi,

I will be totally different as i am buying the Thermo Shandon Embedding 
Center.  I had it in for demo and it had all the features the others have 
for timing and pre-sets as well as some independent temperature ranges I 
likes.  Also the cold plate is seperate so I can have it on either side or 
in another area if I want for special projects.  Good Luck, I think they 
all work well it just depends for me on features and price and Shandon also 
had the right price.

Best Regards,
