Reviews

  • The system is working well! I like the improvements from the last model I used. Thank you!

  • I love the SomnoSuite. We had one issue that the company efficiently addressed so I am happy with its support as well.

  • We love our system. Its very easy to use and convenient!

  • The system is wonderful.

  • It is an amazing portable small animal anesthetic system. Easy to use and accurate. Customer service and live training is excellent as well.

  • The system has been working very well for us. It meets all of our needs and easy to use. In fact, our animal facility decided to purchase one like ours I am told.

  • The system is working well and saving us a lot of Isoflurane.

  • The SomnoSuite system is phenomenal. It is easy to use and minimizes the amount of space needed, and is really efficient in the use of isoflurane! It is one of the best investments I’ve made for the lab!

  • I really enjoy using the system. It's very predictable and uses much less isoflurane than our traditional anesthesia machine. Easy to dial in weight and percentage without a huge oxygen bottle to deal with.

  • We have had some challenges optimizing the system for our specific needs, but the support team has been excellent!

  • We love the system. Our surgical space is somewhat limited so having the SomnoSuite is a huge space-saver both in terms of its small footprint and independence from oxygen canisters. The versatility is great, too, in terms of being able to have both induction box and surgical mask hooked up concurrently. We also appreciate the efficiency of the system in terms of isoflurane consumption and are utilizing the heating pad option.

  • We are all very happy with the performance and ability to move it around. At my current lab we don’t have a need for an anesthesia machine yet, but if we ever do, I will make sure we order the SomnoSuite vs. regular anesthesia vaporizer.

  • We purchased our somnosuite last year and we have been extremely happy with it. We really appreciate administrating lower amount of anesthesia - safer for mice and experimenters!

  • We like the system quite a bit. We’re looking forward to not having to constantly replace our oxygen tanks, as well as using much less isoflurane per animal.

  • The system works very well for our purposes, it has enabled me to keep my animals alive much longer than when attempting the same procedure with injectable anesthetics.

  • I have been using the SomnoSuite for almost a year now, and aside from the motor breaking (which customer service took care of very effectively and efficiently), it has been a great tool for us in the lab. I would (and do) highly recommend it to any other lab doing rodent surgeries.

  • We really like the SomnoSuite. It has reduced use of anesthetic and eliminated the need for cumbersome oxygen tanks. The system is compact portable and very effective

  • Working well so far!

  • We like the SomnoSuite very much.

  • System works great!

  • So far we are liking the systems (we actually have 2 SomnoSuites).

  • We love our system.

  • Our machine is running great.

  • The system utilize the very small amount of isoflurane, so it is very safe for the investigators.

  • So far, we have enjoyed the system and have appreciated the help we had from Kent in configuring the system when we were having issues!

  • The SomnoSuite is working very well for us.

  • What I like about the SomnoSuite is the ability to input the weight of the animal for the machine to calculate the percentage of isoflurane and the oxygen flow. This way the animal doesn't get over-exposed to the gas. It is also very good for the user as there is very minimal isoflurane leak out of the system. Finally, it is very convenient that there is no need for an additional oxygen source.

  • Our Somnosuite has been very effective. Your customer support has been essential in getting out Somnosuite working properly. We greatly appreciate the prompt responses and friendly service.

  • We love the SomnoSuite system and have had no problems.

  • I love my systems (I bought 2)! I've encouraged lots of others to buy somnosuites because it removes the need for a hood, respirator, or (typically ineffective) downdraft table to use isoflurane.
