Hello,
We are planning to purchase a special stainer for our pathology lab. The
staining panel mainly consists of liver, renal, bone marrow, skin, and GI
samples.
Based on your experience, feedback, and troubleshooting, which one would
you recommend among these three: Leica, Roche, and Dako?

We previously had the Ventana Nexus which was excellent, preferred it greatly
over Dako but now we moved to the Ventana Benchmark Special Stainer and it has
been nothing but trouble. I honestly at this point would not recommend the
Benchmark. It needs improvement.

I am looking to replace the automated stainer for special stains in our
lab. I am currently collecting quotes but would also appreciate some
input regarding satisfaction or dissatisfaction with some of the models

that are available. Any input on what you think of some of these
machines/companies
We have a Leica ST5020 special stainer that has barely been used, and we
are looking to sell it. Please let me know if this is something you may be
interested in.

We have used an automated special stainer for years and are now experiencing
multiple problems. Therefore before we order from the same vendor I wondered
what everyone else was using for silver stains such as Jones, Retic, and GMS.
Just trying to evaluate if replacing instrument with newer mod
