It is working pretty well. It has a menu for correcting any gross errors in the sensor, it has buttons for easily setting the set-point temp, and also for the hysteresis.
It doesn't have any kind of 'learning' ability, liked PID controllers. It doesn't have the ability to do a delayed start.
It can be used for cooling or for heating through a menu selection.
Apparently, it was designed for controlling a peltier cooler or heater that needs no consideration as to delayed start. It has a relay output and inductive loads will probably shorten the relay life.
It is simple and cheap and works.
