[Histonet] cryostats

Hi everybody,

I am the person who months ago sent out the cry for help concerning 
sections curling in the cryostat.
I was supposed to get back to you on what solved the problem. I wish I 
could tell you, but the answer is that nothing has worked.
Our tissue cuts fine on another cryostat. The owner of the company has 
apparently dismissed the issue and has not done anything about it, 
although they did send their technician to try and help. After checking 
everything out, she was at a complete loss. So now we have no choice but 
to invest another large sum of money in a new cryostat.

Soooo, now I would like input from all of you as to which cryostat you 
believe to be the best, and if you are planning to tell me it's Hacker 
Bright, don't bother.
The Zeiss Microm cuts well, but the interior is too dark.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all in advance,

Kathleen Spencer, HT (ASCP)
