[Histonet] equipment purchasing

Hello,

Our histo lab is currently looking into buying one or all of the following:

cassette labeler, automated stainer (that can also accommodate a few special
stains), and automated coverslipper (that uses minimal xylene or no xylene).

Can anyone recommend good brands and models that they like as well as what
vendors might have good prices?  We are also looking into getting the
stainer and coverslipper either used or refurbished to cut down on costs.
Our lab is small and we do only about 40-50 slides per day on average.  We
would prefer to have the equipment to be as small as possible.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks,
Patty
