I can't claim thirty six years, but for the past twenty or so I've been using
Patterson plastic tanks for everything from 35mm to 4 x 5.
Except for one or two instances of blatant "User Error" I've never had a
problem.
Perhaps I don't know what I'm missing by not using the best tanks, but since I
only develop 2-3 times a month it's not much of an issue for me.

There is a tendency in this list to gold plate all requirements. I've been
using paterson plastic reels and tanks for about the last thirty six years.
They work fine. If I felt that the list members who recomend Hewes stainless
steel tanks, premium grade, and no other had significant experience of using
plastic tanks, then I would not query their judgment, however, I feel the
stainless only camp is a bit of a shibolith, and is not based on a true
perception of reality.
All the best

ONLY buy Kindermann metal tanks and Hewes (King
Concepts) reels Anything else is an invitation for severe disappointment.
