We have two Calibur, one with sorting option.  Both are heavily used and
not on service contracts.  We have had these for at least 4 years and have
never replaced a flow cell.  We have replaced one red laser and several
pumps.  Most expensive item replaced was the loader elevator assembly.

Good routine maintenance and cleaning as described in the manual help to
avoid clogged cells and poor performance.
