Thomas N. ★★★★★

After years of fighting with other tanks, loading film onto these reels is almost relaxing—the ratchet mechanism makes it nearly foolproof. Development times are consistent now because the fill and dump cycles are genuinely faster.

Madison ★★★★★

The large one-piece lid and funnel clip on so securely that I don't worry about spills anymore, and cleanup is noticeably easier than with my old tank. Only thing is I wish the reels had slightly larger prongs for thicker film, but it still loads smoothly once you get the hang of it.

Carter ★★★★★

This tank cut my loading time in half compared to my old model, and the wide funnel makes filling and pouring out chemicals a breeze. Cleanup is genuinely quicker since there are fewer nooks for residue to hide in.
