I was thinking about getting some, but wanted to hear other peoples opinions about them first.

For ball python eggs they just aren't big enough, and from what I've heard from people who have attemped to use them, they are very finicky and unreliable.

i use a hovabator for my leo eggs, and mykee is correct about them being finiky. once you get the temp set, you leave it alone. they are not the best incubators for herping, but they are available here. mine stays within two degrees of the set temp. you also have to consider that you have to buy a good digital thermometer with an outside probe to keep the temp in check. the thermometers i use cost $9-$10 at walmart. they are in the hardware section. hope this helps.
