You don’t have to stick to 72 either; the heater let’s you adjust it to a wide range of temperatures. You just set it and forget it. The only thing you’ll need to check on is to make sure it is fully submerged; it’s a fire hazard if the water level is below the heater (as made evident in other reviews).
Our turtle absolutely loves it too. When he’s not swimming around or basking, he hovers over the heater and enjoys the heat it gives off. Great product overall.
I was a little concerned that the 100w one wouldnt bring the tank (29gal) up to temp, its normally 60-65 in the house and I wanted the tank temp closer to 75 but one night in the tank and the little light is green now so its up to temp and good to go.
Edit:Bought this in 11/2011, its now 7/2012. Working great. Upgraded to a 75 gallon tank. This still keeps the tank temperature in check even though, i think, 100w is below the recommend wattage for such a large tank. The house sits around 60-65 still. I'll update again in the winter.
First impressions are:
* Comes in nice packaging.
* Feels like a well constructed and designed heater. Feels solid, not heavy.
* It is not glass, so no worries about accidental cracks when working on the tank.
* Thermostat is very accurate.
* Light is always on to let you know the heater has power. GREEN for standby, RED for heating.
The heater I was using stopped holding the temp at a steady 80 degrees F after about 5 years of 24x7 use in my 20 gallon long. Time for a new one... I removed the new Aqueon Pro 100 heater which was well packaged, gave it a rinse, attached the two suction cup clips, set the thermostat to 80, stuck it in the tank (it actually stayed where I put it), and plugged it in. The tank warmed to 79.5 and has been there ever since. Usually, I find heaters require three or four adjustments to get it dialed in. Not this one, and that was a nice surprise.
I have to say that with all of the different heaters I have owned, I have never experienced a heater so accurate and easy to use. Since the heater is made of black thermal plastic (except the dark blue temp knob) it is easy to hide behind a plant or ornament. Who wants to see a big ugly heater tube in their beautiful tank. I have it behind a plant and I can see the green/red light through the plant but not the heater. I love it.
If this heater continues to perform at this level, I will have no problem giving this heater a 5 STAR review, and will purchase them again for my other tanks.
UPDATE: Almost 3 years later this heater is still great, no issues whatsoever.

Keeps temp but little QA/finishing issue on the rubber dome covering the indicator light as well as a white mark.
SMALL! I was afraid by looking a the 14" specs (box size?) on the website that it would be overly long like the Jagger Eheim but it's short around the 10" mark.
I got the blue dial one if that matters.
