Are you interested in experience with Pipenet TM as well? Or only in Natasha/Wanda?

mainly pro and cons for Wanda and Natasha. but if you have any real benefits using pipenet TM, pls feel free to advise me.

Well, I did a comparison about a year ago between Natasha and Pipenet TM. Here I must say that I was not totally impartial, since I was already familiar with Pipenet TM, but here are some of my conclusions:

- possibilities within Natasha are more limited within Natasha than in Pipenet: shape of pump and valve curves, units to be used (for example, for pressure you can only choose Pascal or PSI, not bars), less equipment that can be selected
- input of pump and valve curves seems difficult in Natasha

On the other hand Natasha is also cheaper than Pipenet TM...
