RCM recommendations

currently I use separate disk doctor brushes with Audio Intelligent enzyme and super cleaning fluids to scrub the LP's. I then run the LP through a Spin Clean Record Washer and dry the disks with multiple micro-fibre cloths.

I like the idea of doing the clean with a cleaner fluid then doing a distilled water rinse, then vacuum with the machine. What is the best way to go ?

Clearaudio, VPI or other ? Thank in advance.

In the VPI 16.5 price range, the OKKI NOKKI looks pretty good. I like the idea of a float in the waste tank that prevents overflows inside the machine, metal construction material.

I went from a home-made machine to the Loricraft. The home-made machine did a decent job but the Loricraft was probably a 50% improvement in cleaning quality and a 1000% improvement in noise/convenience. Not cheap but my used LP collection is probably $50K or more so it's a drop in the bucket. The Clearaudio looks to be a similar machine for less. In any case, I cannot imagine owning LP's without some reasonable RCM soluton.
