Miles Scientific Tissue-Tek VIP 2000 Model 4618: Fully Tested and in Good Condition
This Tissue-Tek VIP 2000 (model 4618) has been thoroughly tested with excellent results here at the New Life Scientific tech shop.
Packaged with a programming magnet, all of its paraffin tanks, processing bottles, and an attached power cable, this VIP 2000 includes everything you need except for consumables and tissue baskets.
Our technician fully tested this tissue processor and confirmed that it delivers solid performance. After flushing water through every station 3 times, our tech then did a short run and an overnight run. Both were successful.
Finally, our tech prepped the processor for storage by installing a new battery and flushing the lines with alcohol to dry them out.
This VIP 2000 is in exceptionally good cosmetic condition. The area around the retort is clean and free of chipped paint, which is unusual in itself. Additionally, the retort itself is clean. The only blemishes are some spots of chipped paint on the body panels. We recommend you review the photos.

Tissue-Teks are certainly an older series than some competition. Their longevity testifies of one thing: reliability. Tissue-Teks are robust workhorses and the VIP 2000 is no exception. Though it's seen regular usage over the years, it will continue to perform well for a long time yet.
It's that premium performance at a used price that makes this unit a worthwhile investment.
