I also love the Surgipath.  I especially like the fact that it reaches
temperature so quickly, usually within 5 minutes.

Hi Margaret,
I have worked with both lighted and non-lighted
waterbaths of several types.  My favorite is the
Surgipath water bath.  It has a light.  It holds
temperature very well.  It is also not very "tall" (to
help keep my rotator cuff happy).

I would call and ask for some demo units from various
venders.  I think most will accomodate you.

Good Luck,
Jennifer Hofecker
