CleanerVinyl-Ultrasonic record cleaner

I purchased a Cleanervinyl Pro recently and am very impressed with it! I have used vacuum style cleaners for many years. Last year I purchased a $3000.00 vacuum style record cleaner and thought that was about as good as I was going to get for cleaning records, but I was wrong. The CleanerVinyl Pro system cost me around $600.00, it is far superior to vacuum style cleaners. I took some lp’s that I couldn’t get fully clean with my Vacuum record cleaner and was able to get them clean with the CleanerVinyl system. You can see the crud that collects in the bottom of the machine, and these were already cleaned with a vacuum record cleaner.

@dgarretson ,

You are correct. I don't recall your mentioning your heat/heat setting in your post above, which is why I did not address it.

Hello,

Might I ask which model of the Elma brand would be recommended?
Thank you.

slaw, thanks for bringing up steaming, something I've wondered about before jumping into the US circle.

So where does that rank in an absolute sense between wet/vacuum cleaning and US cleaning?  I realize the cost difference is significant but that is a choice everyone needs to make for themselves.  For those who have tried both, what are the sonic result comparisons between steam and US?

Thanks

It's an Elmasonic P60H.  It has several interesting features, including 37 and 80khz frequencies, de-gas, sweep, and pulse modes, and is quieter than the Chinese machines.

I spent some time with steam cleaning in combination with a VPI 16.5.  The improvement with a good US + 16.5 wet vacuum is significant.
