The most ergonomic pipettes I have ever used
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:SARS-CoV-2 RNA Extraction and Testing

"I love my new Ovation ESC Pipettes. The reason these pipettes were bought was because I got acute tendinitis from pipetting so many RNA extractions for SARS-CoV-2 PCR. I was using another brand of electronic pipette but the manual ejection of the pipette tip was really hurting my thumb. My wrist was also hurting due to the angle at which I had to hold the pipette. I heard about these pipettes from a lab member at another lab that owns them when I was complaining about my injuries. Since using the Ovation Pipettes, my tendinitis has gotten a lot better and I'm able to finish more extractions than I was before. My favorite thing about these pipettes is how little force it takes to do everything, especially when compared to other pipette brands."

Great accurate pipets (electronic) at same cost of a regular pipet-man. Excellent
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Education

"Ovation electronic pipets I have been using for over ten years. They have saved me hundreds of hours over those years. They are quick, repeatable, highly accurate, and the ergonomics are fantastic. With the hundreds of thousands of aliquots over these years, I do not know what shape my hands would be in if I did them all manually."

I highly recommend these pipettes over the standard lab pipettes.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Small Molecule Quantification by LC-MS/MS

"I transitioned to these pipettes about 8 years ago. After pipetting for a decade my thumb joint started hurting daily to the point I was going to have to find a different career. I met with an ergonomic specialist who found these pipettes for me to try. Ovation was and continues to be excellent to work with, they were very helpful in picking out the pipettes for my work. My lab does small molecule quantification by LC-MS/MS so we need highly accurate and precise pipettes- and these work significantly better than the standard pipettes! These pipettes can also be calibrated quickly and easily- no longer needing to send pipettes out for calibration."

Best ergonomic pipettes on the market.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Microbiology

"Been using these for 15 years; this is the only design that alleviates RSI and carpal tunnel from pipetting for me. There is barely any force required to depress the plunger, and the preset electronic volumes mean that you don't have to rapidly twist dials to reset the volume."

Rating: 4.3

"The unit seemed odd looking at first but once you start using them, you would say why they have not done this before. The grip was less strain to my wrist and ejection of the tip is a breeze. Makes me think twice going back to the regular handhelp straight pipette."

Excellent product, and good customer service.
Rating: 3.7

  • Application Area:Biochemistry

"These pipettes are very easy to use, but do have a minor learning curve, my only complaint is that they do not have a slow enough pipette in/out to use them with Ziptips. They do however drastically decrease the pain I experience while spending hours pipetting. I had some issues with one of the pipettes I received being deflective, but customer service was able to send me a replacement. "

Great little pipette that will save you time and money.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Molecular biology

"I use the Ovation single channel pipettes mostly to perform PCR, to add master mix (M.M.) to the samples. It makes the job so easy, in contrast to multichannel you don't have to prepare much excess of MM, it really is fast, compact, and efficient. I had to send my Ovation in for a repair and the service was outstanding. "

The casing of the Ovation can be decontaminated in case of contamination with diluted bleach and diluted ETOH or germicidal disposable cloths. We use 2 X 2.0-125uL electronic, 1 X 0.5-20uL electronic and 1 X 2.0-20uL manual. I like the extender attachment for reaching into tall tubes which also can be decontaminated."

Great product...I will never use any other pipettes!
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Immunohistochemistry and multiplex staining for cancer research

"These ergonomic pipettes are fantastic and I can now pipette all day with no hand fatigue. They can sit independently on the bench, which is quite convenient. It is easy to change out the batteries and maintain them. Completely worth the price and I will never go back to standard pipettes."

Good, but requires their tips which aren't long enough.
Rating: 4.0

  • Application Area:Liquid Handling

"I bought the 25-1250 (purple) and the 5 to 250 (blue) sizes. The design is ergonomic and easy to use with no strain on my hands. I really like to use these for making serial dilutions of virus because it does the trituration for me in a motorized way, saving me the wrist stress. However, the attachment point is so narrow that you can't use off-brand tips for it, and the tips are both expensive and too short - I like to have tips that are long enough to reach into a 15 mL or 50 mL conical tube without the barrel of the pipette touching the walls of the tube, and this is not possible with their tips. Thus, I am restricted to using these pipettes only in shorter tubes (5 ml or smaller)."

Most comfortable pipettes
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Molecular Biology

"These pipettes are much more comfortable than most, and don't cause strain to my wrists and elbows, even when used for many hours daily. They have a significantly different design than other pipettes, and it really makes a big difference. As a laboratory technician who developed severe tendonitis from standard pipette use while still a student, these ergonomic pipettes saved my career. The wrist and arm position used with these pipettes, the light touch of operation, and no-strain tip ejection allow me to perform my job without injury."

Comfortable and Easy to Use!
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Dilutions for chemistry testing &/or cell counts

"The Ovation Electronic Single channel pipette is very easy to use and fits comfortably in your hand. Having a button to eject the used tip is convenient, so you don't have to pull the tip off by hand. Storing the volumes used most often in memory saves time when the pipette is used for different dilutions - much better than adjusting every time. I highly recommend this to anyone needing to purchase new pipettes."

Do not underestimate, it can make a huge impact!
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Drug discovery, cell culture and molecular biology

"Words failed me to describe how wonderful this amazing electronic pipette is as it gives automated liquid handling functions. It is easy to disperse even amounts of the suspension and chemical for various assays such as MTT assay, qPCR master mix..etc. The design of the handle gives a steady hold to distribute the amount of aqueous in the tube or plate for research assay. From the clinical impact perspective, this model of pipette saves time and minimizes human error to produce trustworthy findings. "

"We contacted VistaLab to try out different pipettes, to see which was most applicable to our lab. They graciously sent us the two models we requested, included calibration certificates, as well as tips to try them out. The user manual was very easy to read, and my group was easily able to try them out. We have since purchased two pipettes to use in the lab."

We would recommend this product to any lab looking to replace plunger-style pipettes
Rating: 4.7

  • Application Area:Perform dilutions of acid-digested mineral samples, industrial concentrates, and process solutions

"The pipette is very easy to use, eliminates the need for calibration and maintenance of multiple traditional pipettes over a wide volume range, and effectively standardizes the action of dispensing a sample aliquot relative to a plunger pipette which can vary between users. The range of the pipette used (50-10,000 uL) was not entirely reproducible for all samples given the high-acid matrix, but was adequate for larger aliquot dilutions. In summary, the pros far outweighed the cons for our application, we would recommend these pipettes to any lab for replacing traditional plunger-style pipettes."

Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Pipet liquids in a cell biology lab

"The Ovation single-channel pipettes are great for my shoulder and elbow. I was able to regain the use of my arm after many months of incapacitation due to using standard pipettes. However, pushing the buttons on the front of the Ovations is still difficult for injured fingers. The buttons on the front of all Ovations that I've used are very stiff and hard to press, so I have a hard time setting the volumes that I need to pipette. However, on the bright side, the fully electronic Ovations at least do have nice easy plungers to press."

"At first I was hesitant to try the Ovation pipette because the shape is just so different from a typical pipette. However, my hesitation was put to rest immediately after trying it out! These pipettes are incredibly comfortable, and the shape and design are perfectly suited to fit in your hand. We do a ton of manual pipetting work in my lab, and we have switched out nearly all of our pipettes for Ovation replacements! I highly recommend these pipettes!"

Great accuracy! I do all my PCR/qPCR with it!!
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:loading the master mix onto PCR, or qPCR, really accurate.

"We started using the OVATION single channel pipette to load our master mixes into the PCR reaction. I have to say that it's faster and more accurate, you don't have to worry about volume variations when you add your mixes. I really love this set of Pipettes!!"

Wonderful product, but need extra care with certain buffers
Rating: 2.7

  • Application Area:To examine the microbiome in lung fluid, nasal fluid, swabs, and stool

"I love these pipettes and was so excited when I was able to purchase them. However since, I have found that I do not use them as much as I had hoped. Many of the buffers I use are not viscous, but can be bubbly, and this can cause problems when being pipetted with these automatic pipettes."

Great reliability for picogram range ELISA; but watch for loose tips!
Rating: 4.3

  • Application Area:ELISA; aliquoting

"Our Ovation pipette (1st gen I believe) is reliable for our highly sensitive ELISA protocols. It is very consistent. The only con is it sometimes does not tightly attach to VWR Universal pipette tips., so it is good practice to use the other hand to tighten the connection."

Great choice at a reasonable price.
Rating: 4.7

  • Application Area:Loading agarose gels and 96-well plates

"The whole Ovation pipettes experience was great. First, sales reps offered two-week demo units that were sent to my lab along with the needed tips. After trying them myself, I found that it is really easy on the hand. The unique design of the pipettes makes them very light and easy to handle. I have two full sets of single channel pipettes and a 8-channel pipette. All pipettes are functioning well and have a significantly less stress on the thumb and the wrist. The 8-channel requires special tips from VistaLab, but the single channel ones work with most universal tips. Overall, they are a great choice if you are looking for a reasonably-priced pipette. "

Ovation® pipettes have a unique and patented ergonomic design, the only type that will keep user's hand and wrist in the neutral position recommended by ergonomic experts.

  • Easy spring-loaded “flick” tip ejection for low thumb force
  • Self-standing (attached tips remain elevated off benchtop)

  • Individually serialized

  • In-lab calibration adjustment
