We use the Leica CM1850 UV. It is easy to use for sectioning as well as UV decontamination. Pricing fell in line with other vendors. I have used Shandon, Leitz, Leica and a unit so old I think it came with Noah on the boat don't even remember the maker. Leica is the favorite. It sections well and was the first one that the anti-roll plate would work correctly. It decontaminates well. No regrets, love it and would recommend.
