[Histonet] Thermo Shandon Excelsior tissue processor

Does anyone use a Thermo Shandon Excelsior tissue processor? We just
bought a new one, but found that the "state-of-the-art" molded polymer
chamber has small cracks at some of the seams, which would make reagent
containment and vacuum processing a bit difficult. Thermo is sending
someone to assess/replace the unit, but I want to know if anyone else
has experience with the machine to see if this is a common problem?
Has anyone ever seen cracks develop after repeated use? Any idea
whether the Shandon Pathcentre processor is better? Thanks!
