Postscript to the above previously posted article:
The drive chain on one of our Robbins incubators broke earlier this week. 
A hassle, but Robbins is replacing it for free, and it looks like I may be
able to install it myself (despite being somewhat mechanically challenged
;-) ).  Robbins has been such a great company to deal with that I still
recommend their oven, even though it hasn't been problem-free.
