Clean and well maintained. Ran this incubator through a week's worth of continous testing starting with the Contra-Con 90°C decon and then moving to the auto-start. Heating and moisture production were excellent. CO2 sensor and solenoid was tested after the incubator was listed and functions as designed. The O2 function seems to be intermittent however. Seems like the sensor may be failing.

We gave it a good once over and tested all components. Everything performed well with temp matching our traceable and almost no fluxuation. Menu operation via the touch screen were easy and intuitive and the display was bright and clear. 
All doors and latches operate smoothly. Inner glass door set is clean and interior is in good condition. The only other issue we ran into was the audible buzzer, which did not sound despite alerts being displayed on screen. All sensors other than O2 appear to be registering correctly (door, CO2, fill water etc). We were unsure if the lacking buzzer was an adjustment made at the lab, perhaps a setting we missed, or just a faulty alarm unit.

The interior is obviously less polished looking than our usual stainless surface units. We did not go beyond a light surface cleaning on the copper as the manual suggested that the oxidation was part of the antimicrobial function:
"When exposed to heat and humid air, the copper material of the interior container will oxidize. This results
in a discoloration of the copper components during the test run for checking the device functions. Do not
remove the oxide layer during routine cleaning as the antimicrobial effect of the copper material is based
on it".

This unit comes with power cord and 3 shelves as shown and is outfitted for CO2 and O2 (O2 sensor set: C8N-795).
