Great time saver
Application Area: Pipetting for PCR
"Great quality and reliable (mostly). Once programmes are designed they are easy to use, a little confusing to set up base files though. The occasional missed well when pipetting but otherwise works great. Not very good at judging how long it will take to run a programme. Saves time and hands. Takes forever to get parts serviced and calibrated though."

Excellent purchase for molecular lab
Application Area:Robotic Molecular Technique
"Excellent machine for automatic handling of samples for extraction and PCR run. This handles the liquid samples also very easily. Good to have in molecular biology lab, excellent purchase."

Incredible use for NGS assays, cant dream of manual handling.
Application Area:Automated liquid handling
"Easy to program and operate. Extremely useful working with a large number of samples. Smooth run of the software. No bug found. Worthwhile of sample dead volume range. Perform a precise measurement. Not ample loss of samples or reagents. "

Application Area:RT-PCR and PCR Sample Preparation
"This is really an excellent product of Eppendorf. It makes the sample preparation very easy and with with full accuracy. The instrument we are using for the sample preparation for RT-PCR - ABI 7500 and Eppendorf Mastercycler Nexus Gradient. We are also using this for the DNA Extraction from blood and body fluid. We are also using this for serial dilution also. The pipetting is done with this instrument without noise. The IR Sensor is very sensitive and detects the labware. Few of the complicated DNA Extraction was done on this Epmotion. The door sensor is also very excellent feature; the system will operate only if the door of epmotion is locked. The software part is also very easy to operate. In Future we are planning for DNA Sequence and we are going to use the same instrument for the sample preparation of DNA Sequence. I really thank Eppendorf for developing this type of innovative instrument. Weare also planning to get one DNA Extraction 5075TMX."

"Easy and simple to program and use. The tip-counting feature and deck-check features prevents loading failures. For simple pipetting using the same script over and over this is a nice system. The downsides are: only 4 deck positions (PCR setup not possible), manual change of tool required if needed, slow when handling many samples."

"We purchased this unit in January 2012. It is extremely easy to program and use, it is very robust and applicable to many tasks (some of which were not even mentioned by vendor). We love it!"

"Easy to program, on average it takes 60 minutes to develop a program. Cost efficient compared to other automated liquid handlers. Small footprint, can fit in and on lab benches that have limited spacing."
