RE: [Histonet] Does anyone have and use Shandon Excelsior EX

I have been using the Excelsior for over 4 yrs . Compared to the last VIP we
had this is wonderful!! We save on Reagents by rotating on the first Alcohol
quality. Very user friendly, Would suggest purchasing the Warranty & Netmon.
A bit expensive but the PM & any parts alone pretty much cover that cost.

Hi all,

According to the advertisement, this is supposed to be the most histotech
friendly processor. Does anyone have a comment?

Michelle,
We have two Excelsiors and absolutely love them.  The tech time saved on 
rotating solutions is well worth the cost.  Solutions rotate out according 
to your specifications or alcohol content.  Solutions are loaded during 
the next cycle. Tech time saved once again.  We also are able to get more 
usage out of our reagents.  Line up a demo and see for yourself.
Great processors.

I have had one for a few years now and love it.  You can also monitor it
from another location if you have analog internet.   It is really easy
to change out the reagents and is way less messy than most other
processors.  You need to make sure your reagents stay topped off.  The
only real problems I have had with it is a Pathologist loading it wrong
and not setting it down on the tongs correctly and breaking my basket
that the cassettes set into.  
That was kind of a nightmare.  I had to retrain the Pathologist.
