I have to agree. The slides remained clean, free of residue and ready to
permanent file with no fading or air-bubble problems. Low maintenance,
highly recommended!

Even though it is not on your list, I would highly reccommend  the Sakura
coverslipper, it is extremly dependable and  lets you file slides the same
day. It has none of the aggravation associated with glass coverslippers.

The Leica autostainer has been excellent for our lab.  We also have the
Leica coverslipper.  While not perfect it works well for us.
