JEM-2100F Transmission Electron Microscope by JEOL USA

"User friendly, easy to handle your samples and cryopreparations. High resolution data. High quality service and easy to get in contact if service is needed. User handbook includes technical data, applications, as well as practical and theoretical advice on how to get good results."

"Excellent microscope, high resolution as expected. Straightforward to use additional detectors e.g. EDX/EELS. It would be helpful if software for different components was better integrated."

"After training and with a base knowledge of TEM it's really simple to use it. The interface is user-friendly. The Italian service is really good and help is easily available, even by phone. It would have been good if all the applications were clear before purchase but on the whole I would recommend this equipment to a colleague."

"Filament source- so not as good as FEG, but the instrument is straight forward to use once you follow the manual. We are based in Ireland so it is more difficult to get technicians out to fix problems. It is one of the cheaper TEMs, however we manage to get decent images and the information we need such as crystallinity, size, etc."

"Learning to use the microscope is a challenge, but once mastered it is user-friendly. It would be nice if there was some online software support."

"Easy to use and very useful for additional attachments bought over the years, so a flexible machine. I would recommend this good value for money machine."

"Very good transmission electron microscope for the investigation of various specimens (from biological to metals). Easy to use and has the possibility to analyze the specimens in combination with other techniques."

"Easy to use, very user-friendly interface. Lots of extra equipment is available also. Easy enough to contact the company to service. I would recommend it to a colleague."
