Nitty Gritty or VPI, Which record cleaner ? ? ? ?

Hi, I'm getting back into vinyl and would like to buy a semiautomatic or automatic record clesner. I'm thinking about the Nitty Gritty 1.5 fi or the VPI 16.5.
Any help in this matter will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks.

Bought it in l983 or thereabouts, have cleaned thousands of records with it, and it soldiers on. I like the fact that there's no platter to put stuff BACK on the record. When mine finally dies, I'm going to get a Record Doctor (made by Nitty Gritty) or a new NG. FWIW, Dave
