"The Bibby Scientific D4000 water still is great for our purposes in an independent school chemistry department (age 13-18, lots of A-level chemistry). We are in a very hard water area (Epsom in Surrey) which makes life difficult and we have had to replace the still element several times, even though we clean it carefully and frequently. It has been very difficult on occasion to get spare parts, so I would rate after-sales service as poor, for this reason. However, the still itself is great and we use it all the time. I would recommend it to any other chemistry department. Value for money is very good as we have used it for a long time, although spare parts are expensive. I must say that one of our teachers has had to become very experienced at repairs! Our biology dept use the same model of still."
