Good liquid handler, once set up properly
Automated liquid handling for cell based assays
A liquid handler that works once set up. Software not very easy to use or intuitive, but not an issue after training. Does require someone with experience in liquid handling to set it up correctly. Once set up, works like a charm. Consumables are somewhat expensive, service could be improved. Servicing or repairing a pipetting head takes several months, so you have serious downtime.
