I am a hobby welding type guy that doesn't need to have a lot of rod on hand but likes to produce quality work and thus need to keep my 7018 electrodes dry. This reasonably priced oven does the trick. It is quality all the way with very good fit and finish. The lid closes tightly and the rod elevator makes it convenient to retrieve more electrodes. One feature I like is that it is 75 watts and has a thermostat. This should save electricity over the type of rod ovens that are 100 watts with no thermostat. I haven't owned or used other small electrode ovens but shopped around quite a while before settling on this one. I am happy with my choice of rod oven and am very pleased with the fast service from Web Tool Truck.
