Hi Paul,
a stoppered Stölzle borosilikate jar (200x400 mm) was about the same price, the bespoken jars we use (e.g. 200x600) are at 160 EUR. Guess the critical point is the silicone gasket. It might be worth checking if this could be replaced?
My two cents (plus the impaired monitoring you already mentioned)
Cheers,
Dirk

Folks,
I’m looking at this solution for storing larger ethanol-preserved specimens. What do you all think?

You can’t see the fluid level, true, but perhaps by floating a magnet in a plastic ball you could monitor it from outside – stainless is not magnetic. Alternatively, you could monitor by weight. Or just open it now and then.
