We talked earlier about a three-character, seven-segment display with buttons.  
So, are you planning to add it or not?  
I’d get a controller like that.  
Here’s a reference:

People make heaters on those and similar ones, even with just 1 thermistor.  
This is the one they mostly build them on:

The second one is basically a finished product, easier to fit into a printed enclosure. That’s probably why people buy it.  
I’ve even seen heaters for sale on Ali based on it.

A three-character display and 2 buttons won’t increase the board cost that much.

Here’s an example on Ali:
