Leica has a more ergonomically correct cryostat, which sits lower and your feet are on the ground.

Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2014 8:50 AM To: Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu Subject: [Histonet] cryostat design Hello all; Is anyone aware of a cryostat design in which the microtome cabinet would sit at bench level? In other words, it would function like any regular bench microtome but be housed in a cold cabinet like a cryostat? This would enable the operator to work in a desk position instead of uncomfortably being hunched over a cryostat cabinet. Thanks in advance, Kim Kimberly D.
