Amy,
Our hospital has a Leica EG1040H (hot plate) and a EG1040C (cold plate).
 These two units are separate.  This makes it cheaper to replace one if
one or the other 'dies'.  You have the option on the heating side to
program what time you want it to start heating, what days to heat, or
the option to always have it "on".  The cold side has a "on" or "off"
switch.  We like the equipment.  They have made some very good changes
with the wax collection drawer on the heat side and we are very happy.
hope this helped,
Lynette

We have a Sekura TEC 5 and a Leica. Everyone (4 colleagues) prefers the
Sekura. On Sakura, paraffin, cassette, and embedding surface are on all
of the time. Whenever we need to embed, the cryo chamber is turned on
and once the work is done, cryo is turned off. Try doing that with a
Leica. Either everything is on, or everything is off. Smart engineering.

Hello histonetters,
   
  Is anybody using this equipment? How do you like/dislike it? We are
looking for a new embedding station. Any input is highly appreciated! 
   
  Amy
