Great Service
Rating: 4.0

  • Application Area: DI Water

"This review is for the service we received at MSD for the PureLab Ultra Genetic Equipment. Field Service Engineer Joseph Crusco was onsite for four and half hours. He delivered a quality service. He did all what he could to complete the service and left the system in good working condition."

After initial issues, we are satisfied.
Rating: 2.7

  • Application Area:inorganics lab reagent de-ionized and uv treated water

"Had significant issues during the installation and subsequent 6 months until upfront de-ionized and upfront activated carbon beds installed. A 24hr re-circulation was also installed prior to Elga to ensure simply final polishing performed by Elga. Had issues with hand dispenser and holding arm."

Do not recommend for low usage settings
Rating: 3.7

  • Application Area:Microbiology, genomic studies, analytical chemistry

"When working, the system provided quality water. We are a small undergraduate institution and have low usage rates compared to larger institutions. We continually had problems with leaking connections and the uv bulb. The biggest problem was that the purification packs have electronic tags on them containing their manufacturing date. Once the cartridge would reach a certain age you couldn't use them. We had back up packs that had never been installed but the machine would not accept them because they were too "old". This was very frustrating and a huge waste of money. However the service guys were very knowledgeable and great to work with."

"It is kind of expensive up-keep. The customer service was pretty decent; however, the parts that you need to buy can get very pricey, very quickly. We have had it break down in our lab a few times, but have been able to get it started again relatively quickly. "

  • Application Area:Reagents Mixing

"The ELGA water machine we use in our laboratory is expensive in upkeep and replacement parts every 6 months or so is sometimes difficult for the funding environment. It would be beneficial to extend the life expectancy of the consumables necessary for the machine to operate. Other than this issue, the water machine is easy to use."

"PURELAB makes good water filters.  One thing that can be a little annoying is that it has a time alarm that warns you that your filters are old even if they are still purifying well."
