We are very happy with our Leica cv5030.  Under no circumstances would we
buy a "tape" coverslipper - after five years the tape is lifting on all of
our slides and the tissue section comes off with the tape!  We do at least
300,000 slides per year so you can imagine the mess that we have.  Good luck
in your search!   -Janet

Subject: [Histonet] Automatic Coverslipper Comparison


If you were to purchase an automatic coverslipper today, which one would
you buy?  If you already have one, did you buy a glass coverslipper -
and, if you did, do you like it?  If you aren't happy, why?  Did you buy
a tape coverslipper - and, if you did, do you like it?  If you aren't
happy, why?  If you'd care to cite a specific brand but have some
not-so-positive remarks, you may email me directly.  I'm appreciating
your comments and my coverslip-ragged fingertips thank you!
