Condition is very good with some minor cosmetic damage but fully functional as tested.
Technician comment
Alpha Thermal Cycler preowned, powers on and the display functions normally. All 4 thermal blocks heat correctly and reach the set temperatures 85'C and 4'C. Unit was tested for power and basic heating only; no further functional testing was performed. See photos
