Yes, I have one fitted.
Very easy to fit, in comparison to the original.

My car now warms up, which is handy this time of the year.

Really worthwhile mod if you don't have the time or the patience to sort the original. My cdt never got above the blue dot even after 10 miles, fitted the Renault stat as advised by the peeps on here and hey presto ... toastier than a really toasty thing in under 20 mins of running

Same here. Cost virtually nothing, simple to install, works perfectly.

Sounds like eBay feedback.
