but you save $215· When we got tired of the simple, functional lines of our titrator for Karl Fischer moistures, we designed a new, streamlined one. Did every thing our homely one did, just as fast and accurate too, When we checked and found the new titrator would cost almost $600-to produce, w e said "Phooey!" We think it's silly to charge a lot more money for a new model that doesn't do anything more. We're glad you agree—for you bought more WACO titrators this year than in any previous year. While it still looks the same, our titrator shown above now features ball joint Pyrex glassware that won't drip, a unique drain flask, WACO magnetic stirrer, and many other exclusive advantages. But you still pay just $435. instead of $650.
