[Histonet] Histnet Special Stainers

[Rebecca Johnson]

Need advice on what special stainers everyone is using.  The good and bad. 
We are now using Ventana Nexus special stainer. Bought in 1999.  Not real 
happy with what I am hearing about all stainers. I was told today by a 
manager that all stainers have problems a couple times a year. We have had 
uneven staining, no staining and problems with the silver stain.  For what 
they cost and the cost of the maintenance contracts, this is hard for me to 
believe.  What is your experience with the stainers.
Thanks
