Not all China suppliers are equal we know this. Just wanted to shout out 2 suppliers I’ve been using for years that have always done amazing work and had amazing customer support.
The first is @TouchScience Ben is the freaking man! I’ve ran his chillers/heaters/reactors/rotos HARDDD for many years in many many labs. They run long they get here fast they are cheaper than any domestic and they are quality! And when they break after being beaten on he works with me to send replacement parts (this is a big part of a lot of the China suppliers once you get your shit they disappear and it breaks immediately) he covered equipment under warranty and helped source replacement parts when they were out of warranty. Stand up dude and works really hard in this space. He just recently helped me put together an order for a lab I’m building out and would answer my questions every day super fast and responsive.
Look up his instagram he’s his future name on IG and Touchscience.com
The other supplier is @david he is THE MAN for all things glass and glass adapter needs. bellows/kf25 to glass connection/clamps/o-rings/cold traps/short path table lattices and of course his focus CUSTOM GLASS.
I’ve built so many different custom short path setups with David over the years. I’d just send him a drawing and he’d turn it into reality in no time flat. He would somehow get me stuff when I was in a bind in like a week flat from China. The dudes a magician and he’s cheap as hell and has amazing customer service as well. If you can dream it he can blow it. Lol
I feel like China companies get a bad wrap and I think good work and good people should be knowledged. I’d happily vouch for both of these guys any day. Go give them some business they rock.
