We use this stainer, I would assess it as a good purchase. It is able to accept many racks at once; easy to set up, and the tech-rite support is great. It also has a stat start, and the stainer is able to prioritize your racks for you. The racks also never come across the load and unload stations; I like this feature. There is also more pots than a lot of the stainers.

This instrument is being considered for purchase by my laboratory. It will be primarily used for routine H & E staining and some cytology staining. We may only have limited ability to demo, so I wanted to see if anyone had anything that they might be willing to share regarding the pros and cons of this instrument. I have not personally used this instrument or many of its design style- so any information would be extremely helpful! Thanks so much!
