HumminGuru vs.Degritter

The Degritter II is the most awesome cleaning machine I've had so far. And their customer service is second to none. If you can swing the cost I can't think of anything that's better bang for the buck.

I also have Okki Nokki, Audio Desk and Kirmuss.

Hey dwette.  

Tell us about your experience with the Kirmuss.  I think that it's a viable option here as a choice between the Degritter and Humminguru should also include the Kirmuss.

Any reason not to buy a good used unit of the latest model? i.e. do any parts wear out?

@rvpiano I would be more concerned with the accessibility of replacement parts. all of these machines will have the parts go. The ELF times are pretty short for most. 

@rvpiano Why not keep the Humminguru and invest in a Sugarcube from Sweetvinyl?  I bought one when it was a beta product being crowd funded, and I have been thrilled with it.  To my ears, the processing does not degrade the sound at all.  It effectively removes 95% of clicks and pops, and the newer software uses noise shaping to effectively lower surface noise.
