- In 1973-1975 Slooff built a new organ for the Hervormde Kerk (Dutch Reformed Church) in Krimpen aan de Lek. In the gallery, the organ case of an historic organ by Pieter van Assendelft, built around 1760, was present. This case has been preserved as the positive organ (Rugwerk) of the new instrument. The original design of Slooff was a three-manual organ, but the third manual (Bovenwerk) has never been installed. All drawers and the keyboard were present on the console.
- The organ has been restored by the company Elbertse 2014. A completely new console has been installed with two manuals and pedal. All redundant register pullers and the third manual have been removed. The stop action is completely mechanical now. All pipework has also been re-voiced. The Terts of the Hoofdwerk was removed. A new windchest was manufactured for the pedal. All pipes of the Trompet and Dulciaan were replaced with new pipes. There are four prepared stops (one on the Hoofdwerk, three on the Pedal).
- The organ from before 1973 was built in the gallery, standing freely behind Van Assendelft's old organ case. This case was placed in the church in 1868. The original location is unknown. In 1939-1940 Gerrit van Leeuwen built a pneumatic organ for the church, which was placed on the gallery behind the old organ case.
