In our department, we have first hand experience with the SurgiPath Tribune
and ThermoShandon Gemini Vairstain.

 

Both H&E stainers are real adequate and real efficient. One of the factors
that I based my decision on getting a stainer was the volume of reagents
that is put in each well. Since you have to change most of the reagents at a
certain point, making sure that you have considered the amount of reagent to
replace every week, this will add up to your expense in the long run.

 

Hope this helps
