Andrew S. ★★★★★

After fumbling with other tanks for years, the way this one loads just like a standard film holder is a game-changer. I processed six sheets in one go with no light leaks and the chemicals stayed perfectly distributed.

Andrew K. ★★★★★

Honestly, the double dark slide loading just clicked for me the first time, and I had all six sheets in the holder in under five minutes. Being able to do the whole process in daylight after that feels like a superpower for someone used to tray developing.

Daniel I. ★★★★★

Loading the film with the double dark slide system was surprisingly intuitive, even in a changing bag. The tank feels well-built and lets me develop six sheets at a time with no leaks or issues. I’m getting clean, even negatives right out of the gate.
