They work fine and they don't break if you drop them. Bear in mind
that they aren't resistant to a lot of chemicals and that you can't
autoclave them. Also, the $160 price tag suggests a lucrative market
niche for someone who has rudimentary skill with a carpet knife.

Dear all,
Does anyone in the biocrystallogaphy community use foam dewars for
handly liquid nitrogen and freezing/manipulating frozen protein
crystals ?
We are interested in the following dewar package from Hampton
Research : http://www.hamptonresearch.com/products/ProductDetails.aspx?cid=24&sid=187&pid=559
But before purchasing, we would like to have any comments on the
advantages and drawbacks from people who already tried those dewars.
Thanks in advance for your help and advices.
