Customer Reviews
Great easy to use incubator,great for the hobby people.simple easy to read instructions
Thanks so much, Rod! We’re really glad to hear you’re enjoying your Origin 48.
Our goal was to make incubation simple, reliable, and enjoyable for hobby keepers — so it’s great to know it’s doing just that.
All the best with your hatches!
I am absolutely gutted. I found the supposed "Origin 48" for sale on Amazon for $135 - as a generic branded incubator. I have taken photos of the Amazon product and compared it to the Origin. IT IS IDENTICAL. Cannot believe that Uneek have rebranded a generic incubator and claimed it is "exclusive" to Uneek. The evidence is in plain sight.
I have previously bought two Nurture 360 incubators from Uneek but given I have been duped, I will no longer be buying from this company.
The Origin humidity sensor is also out by more than 10% - my two govee gauges and two Nurture 360 incubators are aligned in both temp and humidity. So I have a sound base comparison. But not the Origin. Both the temperature and humidity fluctuate - I even have the incubator still in the foam casing to try and stablise it. Really disappointed in the product. I would not recommend for nearly $400 buying this incubator. Go buy the Amazon one and save yourself $250!!!!!! :-( :-(
(go read the reviews of Origin online on any poultry FB page - everyone agrees - Uneek are rebranding a Chinese made product that does not perform to a level of a $400 incubator.... it performs more like a $100 incubator!!) Buy Nurture 360 and save yourself the disappointment.
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts — we’re genuinely sorry to hear you’ve been disappointed with your Origin 48.
The Origin Series was developed by Uneek Poultry here in Australia in partnership with an overseas manufacturer. We designed, tested, and refined these incubators to meet the performance standards our customers expect, and each unit is tested before dispatch and backed by our full Australian warranty, service, and genuine parts.
While the external housing may look similar to some models now appearing online, the internal components, firmware, calibration process, and quality control are all specified by Uneek Poultry.
We’ve been in touch directly and are currently testing a replacement unit for you to ensure it performs perfectly before sending it out. We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to make things right.
As noted on our website:

Thank you again for your feedback — it helps us continue improving the Origin Series for everyone.
After a bit of a tear your hair out run with another make of incubator and after talking to Uneek I decided on the Origin 48 incubator. I love the sleek look and the visibility of this incubator. The main draw for me was the completely automated temperature and humidity control. I did a bit of a test run for 2 days and was impressed with how easy it was. I now have the first batch of eggs in and can almost forget about them it’s so easy. I have a seperate thermometer/hydrometer to double check but everything is working beautifully. I also love the instructions on the control pad for those of us who can never remember which button is which!
If I had to find a con, for me it would be the egg roller rather than a holder that tips but that’s just a personal preference really.
Love it!
Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We’re so glad the Origin 48 has been such a smooth experience after the challenges with your previous incubator. It’s great to hear the automated controls and clear instructions are making things easier for you, and we really appreciate your feedback on the egg roller – we’re always listening to ideas for future improvements. Wishing you the very best with your first hatch in the Origin 48!
Loving this incubator. On its 2nd run now, 1st run hatched almost every single egg. Over 90% hatch rate (was getting a measly 40% in another brand incubator). Very glad I made the switch to this brand & have a 2nd origin 48 sitting on my shelf now too! Loving them, so easy to use. Bit fiddly to clean, definitely. But a con I will take any day of the week with the amazing hatch rates it's given me. Ontop of this, Uneek has been an easy, friendly & helpful company to deal with & I cannot recommend you guys enough.
Wow — thank you for such a detailed review! Over 90% hatch rate is an incredible result, and we’re thrilled the Origin 48 has made such a difference compared to your previous incubator. It’s great to hear you’ve already added a second one to your setup! We really appreciate your kind words about our service too — feedback like this makes it all worthwhile. Wishing you continued success with your hatches!
I really loved all the automatic controls on this incubator - it was as easy and reliable to use as a more well-known (& expensive) brand. It has successfully hatched every fertilised egg in my first run. The day counter was helpful and I also loved the built-in candler. It was mostly pretty easy to clean, although the top was a little fiddly. The only negative feedback is one of my silly chicks managed to kick it's leg into one of the larger holes of the fan cover during the lockdown period. It caused a horrendous noise but was easy to resolve quickly and the remaining eggs hatched without issue. The chick has a dodgy toe, but is otherwise ok.
Thanks so much for your great review — we’re thrilled to hear you had such a successful first hatch and enjoyed using the features of the incubator, especially the built-in candler and automatic controls.
Sorry to hear about your adventurous chick and its encounter with the fan grill! It must have been quite the acrobat to get its leg up there — we agree, that’s no easy feat. We'll definitely review the design to see if there's anything we can tweak to reduce the chances of that happening again.
Wishing your little yoga master a speedy recovery and many happy hatches ahead!
