The Midmark M11 and the Midmark M9 Autoclaves have a very valuable feature. The M11 & M9 has the feature of an automatic door. This means the door automatically opens after each sterilizer cycle.
This is important because you need to let the steam out. If you fail to open over the course of time your autoclave will start build up bacteria and germs.
Thus making the autoclave sterilization machine ironic by it's very autoclave definition. At first it may seem like a small feature but in the long term this perceived not so remarkable feature serves a tremendous person.

I can save a few grand if I open it manually.
