What is your experience with the Spin Clean?


Mine is it makes absolutely no difference. I'm thinking about returning it.

Cleaned my first 3 records today with the new Guru and it’s a big thumbs up. The records sounded phenomenal. These were 3 old releases from 60 years back . One was a used copy of “Music of Leroy Anderson Vol. 2 on Mercury Living Presence, a phenomenal golden age of vinyl recording, that I picked up used a few years back and only played once in that it did not sound great. Couldn’t tell if it was just dirty or damaged. Anyhow after a spin in the Guru it sounded pretty close to immaculate.

Been eyeballing US record cleaners for awhile and was waiting for one that would do the job well, be easy to use, and not cost a fortune. So far so good with the Guru. I like that I can just press a button and it cleans and dries automatically in just a few minutes and is ready to go. Just what the doctor ordered! Seems to be well designed and the manual was very helpful getting off to a good start. Very exciting to be able to easily get my records clean again without a major production.

Thanks @jjbeason14 I’ll probably hold on to the spin clean as a backup if ever needed. I did add just a few drops of the cleaning solution that came with the spin clean to the hguru water. Didn’t try without it yet. I’m sure there are many record cleaning solutions that might help in small doses. I used to use a very low concentration of Shaklee Basic H when manually cleaning records and that always worked well.

Helpful thread. Thanks to all.

To the OP, yes I used the Spin Clean by itself, it did well, to me it just takes it up a notch adding the Record Doctor, but by itself it was impressive, especially for the money.....like I said the water got pretty dark, so it was doing what it was meant to.
