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. -Original Message- From: histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu [mailto:histonet-boun...@lists.utsouthwestern.edu] On Behalf Of Michelle MacVeigh-Aloni Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 12:51 PM To: Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: [Histonet] Does anyone have and use Shandon Excelsior EX Hi all, According to the advertisement, this is supposed to be the most histotech friendly processor.

Re: [Histonet] Does anyone have and use Shandon Excelsior EX
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. Debbie M.

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