The MiSeq has been a reliable workhorse in our lab for nearly a decade.
Genomics
From my perspective, the MiSeq has been the workhorse of our laboratory, consistently delivering high-quality data run after run. Initially, we primarily used the platform for small panels in human genomic disease studies, but over the last four years, it has been instrumental in generating a substantial amount of data for metagenomics research. It’s hard to believe this compact platform has been running smoothly for nearly a decade with minimal maintenance.

Easy to handle, great results!
Medcal genetics
Device is super easy to handle. Helpful technical support. Most protocols for library preperation are aligned to Illumina devices like MiniSeq.

As always, we were very content with the service and analysis provided.
Analyzing microbial composition of car interiors
The sequencing and analysis of microbial composition helped us to get an overview of the microbiome, which is present in car interiors. Sadly I can not say much more about results as they ought to be held in nondisclosure. Our university has a pipeline to further process data given from the analysis of microbial communities so it was very easy to use for us. The customer service also reacted fast to our request to send an estimate of cost and for further consultation.

Best quality results on sequencing
Microbiology
Excellent equipment with an outstanding performance in 16S sequencing.

Great tool, once familiarized. It is easy to use and very useful.
Sequencing
It is a great high-throughput technology, you can sequence multiple samples at once. We mostly use it for sequencing BCR (B cell receptor) CDR regions using kits. It is easy to use, but the sequence analysis requires some expertise from the user on the software usage and retrieving the data. The basic training given by Illumina is not sufficient enough, you may need additional training and the purchase of the software not included with the instrument.

Excellent results providing personal sequencer.
A high valuable sequencing system
What a instrument it is. As the name indicates it is a personal sequencer with great work capacity and easy to use features. Highly recommended and this machine provides very efficient results. Good one to have in the sequencing labs.

The results were reproducible when run by anyone in the lab!
Targeted genomic sequencing to study clonal dynamics in cancers
We were able to very quickly set up and run a targeted sequencing pipeline to study the clonal dynamics of many human tumours and their models (patient-derived xenografts) in vivo.

Great tool to consider purchasing.
Sequencing
Illumina Miseq is a great tool for sequencing genes or DNA of interest. The only disadvantage is it's very expensive. All the consumables and reagents are very expensive too. You should consider purchasing it only if needed and can be used to the fullest potential. Initially, it will take time to learn, but once you get used to it, it is not that hard. Tech support is great. You need a lot of support from 3rd party as well for the kits and sequence analysis software.

Fantastic instrument, great customer support!
Sequencing of DNA
A great piece of equipment, small footprint, reliable, easy to use and provides excellent quality data (generally looking for millions of reads over a 50-300 bp range depending upon the kit used). After sales support is excellent - prompt to answer queries and in troubleshooting any issues we have had. Have been using this for several years and few if any issues that were not quickly resolved all the while generating fantastic quality data - would highly recommend to anyone looking for a smaller DNA sequencer!
